 * Well defined or established powers, such as Universal Irreversibility, Omnilock, Probability Manipulation, etc. are slightly resistant to this power (re-scripting of a certain aspect is possible, but not the core properties)
 * Cannot affect or create Omnipotence or Omnipotent Powers.
 * Depending on the power and mastery of the power by the user, the scripting can range from minor superpowers to all powers (except well defined powers) and with a varying range from physical contact to all of existence.
 * Energy expenditure in the form of mental power etc. can vary from little to extraordinary depending on the mastery of the power by the user (users could self-bestow Infinite Supply, eliminating this limit).
 * Users of Power Anchoring cannot have their powers manipulated.
 * May be unable to create powers, being limited to manipulating only already existing ones.
 * May be limited to a certain nature of the abilities (DNA, Magic, etc).
 * Usually requires the Powers as Programs trope to work.
