Glass Manipulation

The ability to manipulate glass. Variation of Earth Manipulation and Sand Manipulation.

Also Called

 * Glass Bending
 * Glass Shattering
 * Hyalokinesis
 * Vitreokinesis
 * Vitrikinesis

Capabilities
User can create, shape and manipulate glass, an amorphous (non-crystalline) solid material that exhibits a glass transition, which is the reversible transition in amorphous materials (or in amorphous regions within semicrystalline materials) from a hard and relatively brittle state into a molten or rubber-like state.

Most commonly glass refers to soda-lime glass, but it includes also fulgurite and obsidian.

Applications

 * Create/generate/increase glass.
 * Shape, compress, and/or otherwise manipulate glass, including properties such as color, opacity and flexibility.
 * Efficacy Manipulation including speed, density, hardness and/or sharpness.
 * Granulation
 * Heat/cold resistance.
 * Polish glass.
 * Repair glass objects.
 * Thermal Resistance
 * Crystallization into glass.
 * Earth Attacks using glass.
 * Hyalokinectic Constructs, including weapons, walls, armor or allies/servants.
 * Move/lift glass at nearly any speed whether in/on surface, air or water. One could even do this on vacuum of space if one has way to survive the experience.
 * Matter Surfing by riding a mass of glass.
 * Shard Manipulation

Techniques

 * Catoptric Teleportation
 * Earth Aura using glass.
 * Geokinetic Invisibility using glass.
 * Geokinetic Regeneration using glass.
 * Glass Transmutation
 * Healing Earth
 * Hyalokinetic Combat using glass.

Associations

 * Artificial Element Manipulation
 * Computer Interaction: many computer parts are made up of glass, one can make a direct interface with it's systems through this.
 * Earth Manipulation
 * Furniture Manipulation
 * Reflection Manipulation
 * Sand Manipulation
 * Silicon Manipulation

Following substances share glass-like qualities:
 * Diamond Manipulation by mixing Carbon elements creating silicon carbide.
 * Metal Manipulation: Network glasses, Amorphous metals.
 * Salt Manipulation: Electrolytes.

Limitations

 * May be unable to create glass, being limited to manipulating only from already existing sources.
 * Most glass is brittle unless the user can increase its durability.
