Capabilities
Users of this ability are able to manipulate the fifth fundamental force that allows life to flourish throughout the universe. With this, they are able to control their own personal life-force that dwells within them, allowing them to achieve untold power and great abilities considered to be beyond that of normal beings. Users use both physical and spiritual power to control their life force. The user is able to generate their life-force and create their own personal energy with its own nature and can change by the users will.

Highly skilled users may be able to control not only their own Life-Force, but the life-forces of other beings in order to achieve unbelievable strength.

Contrary to some belief systems, Life-Force is considered to be neither hot, cold, wet, nor dry, and invisible with no color. When manipulated properly, the user may be able to contain it within a colored bacteria. It is used as the main power of the fifth element known as Aether.
