Capabilities[]

The user's intellectual faculties transcend all other sentient beings (and other levels of intelligence) in their universe/verse. Said faculties includes; a superior mental capacity and a limitless level of concentrations, complete control over the self, can recall absolutely everything, flawless foresight and insight, unparalleled wit and ingenuity, unfathomable cognition, unrestricted mental thinking and access to unlimited amounts of ideas, can intuitively and instantly comprehend and learn everything and anything and is a brilliant master tactician.  

The user goes beyond just being "smart", becoming an intellectual force of nature. They can instantly outsmart and outwit anyone in their path, always remain completely competent and able to think their way out of every possible and impossible situation, be terrifyingly proficient at manipulation and controlling the actions and psychological states of others and have peerless understanding of the mind, complete self-sufficiency allowing them to accumulate knowledge and survive without any assistance, can perform and complete an infinite number of tasks, possess absolute emotional intelligence and control, forever sense and comprehend the true state and nature of everything and everyone, always make the right decision while avoiding all errors and failures, and be perpetually aware of every single facet of every situation they are in. They will know what to do, when to do it, how to do it, who to do it to, why they should do it, and how they should act at all times.

This power differs from Omniscience in that even though the user has, essentially, a limitless intellectual capacity they still have to manually learn information, so they don't innately possess knowledge and understanding of everything to begin with. But the rate at which they intuitively simplify, comprehend, and learn information is so effortless and instantaneous that this difference becomes a non-factor. Their Intelligence will endlessly grow, adapt, evolve, and transcend.

This is the greatest, most supreme level of intellect a being can attain, being both the complete accumulation and boundless mastery of all facets of intelligence, cognition, logical reasoning, and thinking. The user can instinctively create an infinite number of intricate schemes, strategies, tactics, and plans that will never fail and countermeasures for complete adaptation to any form of change that befalls any situation. Their efficiency is flawless, and they make the most out of every situation, with every mental and physical action possessing not a single waste of energy, time, or effort, but instead complete optimal effectiveness and pragmatic streamlining. The user's memory capacity not only encompasses every instant of their entire existence, but every last detail, fact, and truth of each memory is laid bare for the user to discern. Their mind is in a perpetual state of total clarity and serenity, rendering them completely unfazed to all scenarios that occur. Finally, they possess absolute perception of all equations, patterns, motivations, opportunities, and mechanisms imperceivable to everyone but the users themselves.

Applications[]

Levels[]

  • Peak Human Intelligence: Characters who demonstrate high reasoning ability, can master difficult concepts with few repetitions, and display high performance capability or notable mastery in intellectual or specific academic fields, which makes them equivalent to real-world experts in these areas.
  • Enhanced Intelligence: Individuals with an exceptional capacity for knowledge and intelligence, usually in one area of varying depth. This level of intellect is the level of real-world geniuses, polymaths, and genuinely extremely prominent intellectuals, and, in the absence of better feats, should be the default intelligence category for fictional characters with exceptional or superhuman intelligence.
  • Supernatural Intelligence: Individuals whose knowledge spreads over multiple fields of science and who vastly surpass the real world's upper human limits. At this level, many are capable of creating extremely advanced futuristic technology, executing complex strategies even under high pressure, outperforming supercomputers, and even accurately predicting the future through sheer mental calculations. This is where super scientists of exceptional scientific knowledge begin to appear.
    • Type I: Users can acquire and access vast levels of knowledge and ideas, they can outwit most beings in their verse and turn almost any situation in their favor. Users are able to effortlessly conquer any logical situation and invent technologies that can bend physics but may still be bound by the physical laws of their verse.
    • Type II: Users possess a quantum level of intelligence, acting similar to a quantum computer, they can access otherworldly knowledge and ideas and invent technologies that allow them to violate the laws of physics, alter reality and even access other dimensions such as the afterlife. They possess multi variative calculations that allow users to gain beyond logical results and conquer illogical situations in other dimensions.
    • Type III: This level of intelligence can allow users to defeat overwhelmingly stronger opponents through sheer mental power alone. They are able to outsmart some of the smart beings and cosmic entities in the universe but may not be able to with higher dimensional or existential entities. They can analyze and calculate from distinct perspectives that rely only on interactions and connections with effects. This allows users to comprehend virtually anything and everything and essentially gives them a form of precognition, allowing them to build technologies and sciences that are beyond the comprehension of lesser being and do things that were thought to be impossible and even indistinguishable from magic.
    • Type IV: Nigh-absolute intelligence, users are one of if not the smartest beings in their verse and have fathomless intellect that is incomprehensible to all lesser beings. They are able to analyze and calculate objects that are not dependent on one another, this type of intelligence works as free logic, without needing direct connections, which allows users to comprehend things that do not react with other systems or properties. However, despite all its capabilities, it is still nowhere near absolute intelligence.
  • Absolute Intelligence: The highest level of non-omniscient intellect, possessed by individuals with unfathomably superhuman intelligence who are capable of creating impossibly advanced physics-defying and reality-warping fantasy technology for enormously diverse purposes. This is the greatest, most supreme level of intellect a being can attain, being both the complete accumulation and boundless mastery of all facets of intelligence, cognition, logical reasoning, and thinking. The user can instinctively create an infinite number of intricate schemes, strategies, tactics, and plans that will never fail or at least almost never fail and countermeasures for complete adaptation to any form of change that befalls any situation. From this the users will be able to do things that are considered impossible like conquering the multiverse, stealing a nigh-omnipotent entities powers, predicting outcomes of chaotic situations and much, much more.
  • Nigh-Omniscience: The user knows almost everything in existence while being blocked from certain details or being limited in other ways, possibly only being able to see one timeline or universe, or have just small patches of information that are missing or blocked out. Thus allowing one to keep their sense of free will and uncertainty.
  • Omniscience: The state of having all knowledge, or in other words, knowing everything. A character that is omniscient knows everything that their opponent is going to do before they do it, and exactly what to do to win any fight. The user's mind is unblocked or unconstrained to knowledge of the entirety of totality, there's absolutely nothing which they do not understand or insightfully comprehend, knowing every answer to every inquiry on a timeless scale, meaning it is regardless of time; their recollection of infinite knowledge offers an understanding of the intricacies or "workings" of totality.

Associations[]

Limitations[]

  • Despite being extremely intelligent and understanding infinite possibilities, they are governed by the materials, energy, and laws of the universe in which they live.
  • Although their plans always go well, most of the time they are not omniscient beings to know what is going to happen, so they can fail if they do not know exactly who their enemy or rival is.
  • Their inventions, although functional, can fail or have errors since they are far from being omniscient to fully understand other entities or even dimensions or universes.
