Light Manipulation


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

The power to manipulate light. Sub-power of Electromagnetism Manipulation and EM Spectrum Manipulation. The opposite of Darkness Manipulation.

Also Called

 * Light Control
 * Photokinesis
 * Photon Manipulation

Capabilities
User can create, shape and manipulate visible light, commonly referred to simply as light, is electromagnetic radiation that is visible to the human eye, and is responsible for the sense of sight.

Primary properties of visible light are intensity, propagation direction, frequency or wavelength spectrum, and polarisation, while its speed in a vacuum (299,792,458 meters per second/186,000 MPS) is one of the fundamental constants of nature. Visible light, as with all types of electromagnetic radiation (EMR), is experimentally found to always move at this speed in vacuum.

In common with all types of EMR, visible light is emitted and absorbed in tiny "packets" called photons, and exhibits properties of both waves and particles. This property is referred to as the wave–particle duality. The study of light, known as optics, is an important research area in modern physics.

Applications

 * Create/generate/increase, absorb, shape and manipulate light and colors.
 * Absolute Light
 * Bend and/or shift light particles:
 * Holographic Projection
 * Invisibility
 * Visual Illusions
 * Flight/Levitation
 * Light Attacks
 * Move at light-speed.
 * Solidification via controlling light.
 * Photokinetic Constructs, including weapons, armor, walls or allies/servants.

Techniques

 * Light Aura

Associations

 * Big Bang Inducement
 * Combined with Darkness Manipulation, may develop into Twilight Manipulation
 * Highly advanced user may be able to even absorb and manipulate the energy of light rays/particles that come from the sun, eventually gaining the ability of Solar Manipulation.
 * Holy Breath
 * Light Form
 * Lightside View by manipulating the bright areas of one's mind and soul.

Limitations

 * May be unable to create light, being limited to manipulating only from already existing sources.
 * Users light is affected by everything that all light is, unless they are powerful/skilled enough to overcome these limits:
 * Glass Manipulation and/or Reflection Manipulation bounces back by a reflective surface.
 * Gravity Manipulation bends light.
 * No matter how powerful the light is it will pass through anything completely transparent.
 * May be overwhelmed by Darkness Manipulation.
 * Since light is a constant the user will have to be able to control any light constructs to keep them from going on forever.
