I think it's that way too...Reality Warpers and Nigh-Omnipotents mesh, but there is a subtle difference there....again, it's probably because Warpers are "raw" and have to directly imagine to fight back, whereas Nigh-Omnipotents are already "developed"...there is little for them to imagine because there already inheritly possess almost all power already from the get-go whereas Reality Warpers, do not...they have to imagine such things first, and in most media, they don't...this is why I think most media portrays Warpers as ordinary human beings whereas N-OP's are not...there is a subtle distinction there.

It may not be a big step, but it's still a step and a subtle diffference...plus, it could extend even farther if Nigh-Omnipotents have defences against Reality Warpers or have strong warping abilities then a simple bender...a Warper could also have such things, but I think it's more likely for a N-OP to have them....for example, in the SCP-Foundation world, there are many Reality Warpers that are "de-comisioned" by a Doctor who is another Warper because this person is vastly more experienced then them and has defences against reality-bending....and it figures when this person is said to be Satan himself - in other words, a Nigh-Omnipotent being and not a human being who leaves themselves open to conventional weaponry despite imagination being their only limit. They have "rules" to killing Warpers (such as the attack must last only 'one' second, like a sniper shot) and for the vast majority, they work...for the minority, they don't - this minority could simply be powerful and/or smart Warpers who don't leave themselves vulnerable, but I feel this small minority are what we would call N-OP's.

Basically, yes I agree...there may not seem like there is a difference between the two and, superficially, there really isn't...but there is 'something' to be noticed there and why I think Nigh-Omnipotents are inheritly more powerful then "mere" Reality Warpers, even if only on a small way...it's probably why this page even exists.
