Capabilities

The user of this ability can interact and change reality via miming.

They could hold their index finger and thumb like a gun, and actually shoot someone. They wouldn't literally shoot a bullet out of their finger, but instead the body's thought waves, or "imagination," solidify into a "bullet" and penetrate the target. Some users can even actually see the constructs they create, even though others may not.

Limitations

• Can only create something if one can imagine it.
• Must have limbs free to produce desired effect.
• Must know what action to perform, in order to produce the desired effect.
• May require that the user doesn't make noise, and if they do, the power is temporarily disrupted.
• Sometimes, the user's skin is rendered permanently white or gray and the hair rendered permanently black, even producing artificial face paint, and/or rendering the user mute (In such a case, the user would require a power like Telepathy or Empathy in order to communicate). Though, fortunately, in other cases, the transformation only lasts as long as the power is in use.
