Time Paradox Immunity

From The Codex
Link is unaffected by Veran changing the past.

Background

Time Paradox Immunity is the ability to be unaffected by temporal paradoxes.

Capabilities

The user is able to exist even when history is changed: for example, the most common one is if someone were to go back in time and kill the user's ancestors, the user exists still as if their ancestors' murder did not happen at all. If they were killed by someone in the past via time travel, they will still be alive in the present. Normally this will cause others user knows to completely forget about them like they did not exist before, though sometimes the user can make it so that a few people, or even everyone they know would still know who they are as if they do exist. The different kinds of temporal paradoxes are listed here.

Types

Type 0: Alternate Timeline: The user is immune to the affects or repercussions caused by occupying the same space and time as themself from another timeline or time period. Higher levels of this ability can be mixed with the grandfather paradox as one will be able to meet themself in the past without being affected.

Type 1: Grandfather Paradox: The user is immune to changes in the past. Meeting another version of themself will have no effect on them. This gives them resistance to Causality Manipulation as their cause being re-written won't affect them.

Type 2: Fermi Paradox: Users cannot be reached from their past, present or future, making it impossible to make changes to their past. For example, a man from the future wants to go back into the past to tell himself to cash in on a lotto, however the past he goes back to is in a completely different timeline.

Type 3: Newcomb's Paradox: Users futures are far too hard to read and are unpredictable. They have a form of free will, but they still have a written future. This gives them a high resistance to Precognition and Fate Manipulation as their futures are unpredictable.

  • Examples: Jack Morton (The Order)

Type 4: Causal Loop: Users are unbound by a casual loop. Making it where an event that will always happen doesn't happen under them. This makes them resistant to Precognition that makes an event happen, and Fate Manipulation.

Type 5: Paradox Immunity: The User is completely unaffected by paradoxes, thus any of the rules of paradoxes followed in their verse won't affect said user. This could range from things destined to happen not applying to the user to something as simple as minor changes will not happen to the user.


Note: This ability can correlate with Acausality, however the effects aren't the exact same.
