Temporal Looping

The power to loop time. A sub-power of Time Manipulation.

Also Called

 * Groundhog Day Loop
 * Temporal Causality Loop
 * Temporal Loop
 * Time Loop

Capabilities
With this power you can trap anyone or anything into reiterating time stream where where everything inside the loop is restarted precisely every so often, possibly even backwards. You may be able to force someone to relive the same minute, hour, day, year, etc. for as long as you keep them there. On some occasions people have been know to retain a small amount of memories or eventually escape weaker temporal loops.

This power occurs especially in universes where time travel is commonplace in which time runs normally for a set period (usually a day or a few hours) but then skips back like a broken record. When the time loop "resets", the memories of most characters are reset (i.e. they forget all that happened). The plot is advanced by having one or more central characters retain their memory or become aware of the loop through déjà vu.
