Changes: Vector Manipulation

Revision as of 23:31, 17 March 2020

The power to manipulate the vectors of matter and its related energy. Sub-power of Physics Manipulation.

Also Called

Direction Manipulation
Geometric Vector Control
Redirection Manipulation
Refraction Manipulation
Regokinesis
Spatial Vector Transformation

Capabilities

The user can change both the magnitude and direction (vector) of something to achieve a given result.

Position, momentum and force are the three basic types of vectors. Position is the coordinate and orientation of something, whilst its momentum refers to both its speed and trajectory. Force is instead the direction and strength of its acceleration, and even if the size of its vector was zero, it would still count as one due to having a direction.

Since every form of matter can be described as a vector, manipulating it as such allows the user to create an "absolute defense" field that inhibits harmful objects from entering it. This can be done, for example, by either reversing their kinetic vectors or instantaneously relocating them to a different region of space).

Applications

Basic Level

Acceleration by increasing the magnitude and the direction of force vectors.
Attack Reversal by reflecting the vectors of any attack or opposing force.
Deflection by inverting/reversing the direction of momentum vectors.
Inertia Negation by nullifying all vectors that are related to inertia.
Motion Reversal: by reversing the direction of vectors in movement.
Vector Creation: by creating any kind of vector to be used.

Advanced Level

Directional Manipulation by manipulating the directional properties of vectors.

Quantum Manipulation by manipulating quantum state vectors and the rules that define their behavior.
- Absolute Force Manipulation by manipulating every force vectors.
- Information Manipulation by manipulating vectorial information.
- Particle Manipulation by manipulating the vectors of subatomic particles.
- Probability Manipulation by actualizing a possibility in relation to the state of vectors
- Space-Time Distortion/Rift by using vectors to distort the space-time continuum.
Teleportation by instantaneously rearranging a physical system by modifying related position vectors.

Associations

Limitations

May have limited range, including touch only.
May only be able to affect vectors related to physical objects.
May only be able to affect one of the two quantities of a vector (direction or magnitude), while leaving the other virtually unaffected.
If the user is required to perform calculations to use this ability, Enhanced Intelligence may be needed.
- If the user lacks Enhanced Endurance, their performance of calculations to use this ability may cause them to suffer from exhaustion and other negative side effects.
May only be able to manipulate a certain number of vectors at a time; distraction may put user at risk.
May be vulnerable to any harmful effect that is unrelated to vectors.
- This may include Attacks of/from another dimension, Conceptual, Magic and Mental Attacks that have no vectors and attacks that the user cannot properly react to.
If the ability is used to form an automatic reflection field, the opponent can take advantage of it by reversing their attack at the exact moment of contact with the field's area of effect, which tricks it into drawing the attack towards the user and thus allowing it to harm them.
If user does not possess Enhanced Lung Capacity or Oxygen Independence, they will become vulnerable to Deoxygenation.

+The user can change both the magnitude and direction ([[Wikipedia:Vector (mathematics and physics)|vector]]) of something to achieve a given result.
-Vectors are properties existing as either one of two types: position (location) and momentum (velocity). Position is distance (or coordinate) and direction in relation to something (orientation); momentum is speed and direction of motion (trajectory). The manipulation of momentum results in changes in motion; the control of position allows for alteration of location. Even if the magnitude of a vector was zero, it would still count as one due to it also having a direction.

Force is instead the direction and strength of its acceleration, and even if the size of its vector was zero, it would still count as one due to having a direction.
-All forms of matter can be described as either having or being vectors, and by exploiting this fact, a user of this power can theoretically create an "absolute defense" that prevents any harmful vectors from bypassing its boundary (possibly doing so by reversing the direction of kinetic vectors or displacing position vectors as to send the associated object to alternate regions in space).
