Variable Manipulation

The ability to manipulate quantifiable values. A rational variation of Logic Manipulation, and a sub-power of Boundary Manipulation.

Also Called

 * Level Manipulation

Capabilities
The user can manipulate all quantifiable values, concrete or abstract, freely increasing / reducing / mutiplying / dividing them. As one might expect, his ability mixes excessively well with virtually all other powers, especially Power Replication and the likes, as it can amplify any variable of any power to infinite levels. For example, something as simple as Energy Blasts could have it's range, radius, power, precision and number of beam/projectiles multiplied tremendously, obliterating entire armies in one strike. Supernatural Condition is also a prime example, as all physical and mental variables can be increased to ludicrous levels in an instant (strength, speed, agility, resilience, regeneration, intelligence, perception, intuition etc.).

It can also be used directly : slowing / accerelating / stopping / rewinding time, teleportation via reduction of distances, refill and/or lock various supplies to a specific amount, burning / freezing things via the manipulation of temperature, manipulate the mind by increasing / decreasing specific mental factors, nullify powers, increase any skill exponentially, reduce lethal damages to scratches, increase / decrease the size of anything, and so on.

The user notably possesses the supernatural ability to evaluate any variable, even those seemingly unquantifiable. There are two core limits. First, only existing quantifiable values can be altered. The power thus cannot create nor destroy anything (as zero is the absence of value). For example, specific skills / abilities must be gained before they can be increase, and values cannot be reduce to absolute zero, which would simply make them disappear. Second, only virtually identical elements are considered as quantifiable variables. For example, the number or soldiers in an army isn't one, since each soldier is a very unique person.

Applications (concrete)

 * Power Augmentation

 * Inorganic Duplication

Applications (abstract)

 * Multiple Lives
 * Hypercompetence

Associations

Limitations

 * Only existing values can be manipulated (no creation/erasure).
 * "Quantifiable variables" only applies to (virtually) identical elements.
