The power to manipulate reality by performing gestures. Combination of Reality Warping and Power Via Gesture.
Also Called
- Gesture Essokinesis/Ontokinesis

Depending on how the power works, the difficulty of using the ability can always vary, depending on the amount of gesturing needed for the happenings to occur, making practice an important factor whenever it comes to using the power beforehand.
