'''Acausality''' is the ability to be unrestricted from a form of cause and effect and act without it. The ability varies on the scale it can be used on.

'''Type 1: Time Paradox Immunity:''' The Users of this level of Acausality are immune to changes made in the past, meaning that anything done to the past will not affect the character in the present and thus are immune to Temporal Paradoxes, however, remain vulnerable to attacks made in the present.
'''Type 1: Unfixed Causality:''' Users of this type function under normal causality but their actions regularly defy it and make it non static, these are normally related to the archetypal characters that while bound by fate and causality, can still at times defy it and change it around them for their own gain or the gain of others. Regular examples would be a character being prophesized to die and they defy said prophecy to live. They can also do things like remember universal, timeline, or multiversal resets as they in some way defy time itself.

'''Type 2: Temporal Singularity:''' The Users of this level of Acausality do not experience changes made to them by changes made to the past and future of the character, effectively meaning the User only exists in the present and only by attacking the User in the present can one effectively harm the User, this also means that attempts to see into the future and change fate of the User often fail, as well as changes to the Past.
'''Type 2: Future or Past Defiance:''' Users of this type have no past or no future. In some cases they lack both. This allows things like a past to not define the user and thus time paradoxes cannot affect them, or for them to carve out their own future.

'''Type 3: Temporal Permanence:''' The Users of this level of Acausality are difficult to kill, as other versions and variations of the character from other timelines, other points in said timeline or alternate Universes will continue to exist separate from the Original version, meaning even destruction in the Present wont be enough to kill them permanently and thus, giving the User immunity to being affected by changes in their past.  
'''Type 3: Temporal Singualrity:''' The user of this type is essentially similar to the previous type, unlike the previous type who still has multiple present versions of themselves, this type is akin to '''[[Singular Existence]]''', as the character exists only within the present of a given timeline.

This grants them resistances to abilities that rely on conventional cause and effect such as: Causality Manipulate, Fate Manipulation, Precognition and similar abilities.
'''Type 4: Irregular Causality:''' Users of this type exist on a different and irregular level of Cause and Effect, different to our own. This grants them resistances to abilities that rely on conventional cause and effect.

'''Type 5: Causality Transcendence:''' The Users of this level of Acausality do not function on any level of Cause and effect and are transcendent over Cause and Effect. Any attempts of a person or ability that functions on a Cause and Effect system cannot traditionally harm the User as only the Cause will initiate and not the effect.
'''Type 5: Causality Immunity:''' Users of this type are outside of Causality, they do not function on any level of causality and, are transcendent over Cause and Effect. Any attempts of a person or ability that functions on a Cause and Effect system cannot traditionally harm the User as neither the cause or effect will initiate, as the attack will be bound within a system the user does not exist within.

Raiden as an immortal exists outside of the laws of time making him affected differently by Kronika's powers

Introduction

Acausality is when a character breaks conventional causality, varying on the scale they break. For some characters, this means they don't exist in the past or future; for others, this means defying all logic and acting with complete disregard for any causality. This grants them resistances to abilities that rely on affecting the past or future such as: Causality Manipulation, Fate Manipulation, Plot Manipulation, Probability Manipulation, Precognition, and similar abilities.

Types

Type 1: Unfixed Causality: Users of this type function under normal causality but their actions regularly defy it and make it non static, these are normally related to the archetypal characters that while bound by fate and causality, can still at times defy it and change it around them for their own gain or the gain of others. Regular examples would be a character being prophesized to die and they defy said prophecy to live. They can also do things like remember universal, timeline, or multiversal resets as they in some way defy time itself.

Type 2: Future or Past Defiance: Users of this type have no past or no future. In some cases they lack both. This allows things like a past to not define the user and thus time paradoxes cannot affect them, or for them to carve out their own future.

Type 3: Temporal Singualrity: The user of this type is essentially similar to the previous type, unlike the previous type who still has multiple present versions of themselves, this type is akin to Singular Existence, as the character exists only within the present of a given timeline. This grants them resistances to abilities that rely on affecting the past or future.

Type 4: Irregular Causality: Users of this type exist on a different and irregular level of Cause and Effect, different to our own. This grants them resistances to abilities that rely on conventional cause and effect.

Type 5: Causality Immunity: Users of this type are outside of Causality, they do not function on any level of causality and, are transcendent over Cause and Effect. Any attempts of a person or ability that functions on a Cause and Effect system cannot traditionally harm the User as neither the cause or effect will initiate, as the attack will be bound within a system the user does not exist within.

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