Water Manipulation


 * For a gallery of examples for Water Manipulation, see here.

The power to control, generate and/or absorb water and moisture.

Also Called

 * Aquakinesis
 * Gelidkinesis
 * Hydrokinesis
 * Waterbending
 * Water Control
 * Water Release

Capabilities
The user can control, generate and/ absorb liquids, moving and shaping bodies of water to the user's desire: lifting, parting or otherwise manipulating its form and/or density. Water can easily serve as a weapon, either by shaping into gigantic whips, swung repeatedly at a target as a snake-like body, formed into a razor-sharp edge that can cut through even metal, or simply dropped to smother opponent or put out a fire. On the sea or ocean, user can create several natural phenomena related to water, such as: whirlpools, waterspouts, tidal waves, etc.

Applications

 * Generate, shape and manipulate water, issuing in different forms such as beams, balls, or focused bullets/edges:
 * Manipulate tides.
 * Control ocean currents.
 * Create water bubbles that can travel underwater.
 * Tidal Wave Generation
 * Aquatic Adaptation
 * Density Manipulation and Pressure Manipulation controlling water molecules to make water 'solid'.
 * Hydrokinetic Constructs, including weapons, walls, armor or allies/servants.
 * Harden and enhance the body by collecting and manipulating water pressure within it.
 * Water Walking
 * Water Surfing

Techniques

 * Bubble Generation
 * Cloud Generation
 * Drowning
 * Healing Water
 * Hydrokinetic Combat
 * Hydroportation
 * Liquid Surveillance Communication
 * Moisture Absorption
 * Dehydration
 * Motor-Skill Manipulation by manipulating the water contents (about 70%) within a human body.
 * Internal Rupturing
 * Water Aura
 * Water Cutting
 * Water Mimicry
 * Vapor Manipulation
 * Viscosity Manipulation

Variations

 * Bubble Manipulation
 * Dark Water Manipulation
 * Ice Manipulation
 * Ice Mimicry
 * Steam Manipulation
 * Scald Generation
 * White Water Manipulation

Associations

 * Acid Manipulation
 * Alcohol Manipulation
 * Blood Manipulation
 * Erosion Manipulation
 * Lake/River Manipulation
 * Liquid Manipulation
 * Lunar Manipulation may increase the power of this ability.
 * Ocean Manipulation
 * Oil Manipulation
 * Salt Manipulation
 * Water Form Manipulation
 * Water Propulsion
 * Vibration Emission in/on water including inside someone.

Limitations

 * Susceptible to Electricity Manipulation.
 * Controlling and manipulating great bodies of water (lakes, ponds, seas, oceans) is exhausting.
 * Can be opposed by Fire Manipulation, Magma Manipulation, or Ice Manipulation.
 * Those with Sand Manipulation could use silicate particles to absorb the moisture from water.
 * May not be effective against Oil Manipulation since oil is hydrophobic, meaning repelled from water.
