- "I've got a unique situation, I'm omnipotent! The trouble with being omnipotent is that reality isn't real to me! Everything is what I say it is! If I decide that granite is squeezably soft, It is! If I decide that cows have wings, They do! To put it another way, Cows do not have wings because I don't want them to! My imagination and reality are virtually indistinguishable! All existence, except me, might as well be a figment of my imagination! Maybe it is! I might have just dreamed all this up, including wingless cows! But then the whole point is that it makes no difference!"
- ― The Beyonder (Marvel Comics)

Capabilities[]
Ultipotence is solely centered on Omnipotence as the ability to "possess truly unlimited power and potential". The user possesses raw power infinitely exceeding everyone and everything else in their setting allowing them to potentially achieve anything and everything without any limit depending on how much knowledge and control the user has over their power. Users therefore has limitless means at their disposal but must have a clear enough idea of what they want to achieve and how they will do it. This double condition may notably prevent the power from going awry and backfiring on the user.
Effective use of Ultipotence requires both knowledge and imagination: knowledge to offer templates for applications, and imagination to shape new possibilities.
While users are not really all-knowing, the user could acquire tremendous amounts of knowledge as they need, gradually expanding their options and refining their mastery through practice and experience, furthering their control and precision over their endless power and access to new abilities more powerful than before, opening new worlds of possibilities.
To summarize: Ultipotence is the potential to do anything.
