==Summary==
[[File:Pain_Human_Path_(Naruto)_Soul_Absorption.gif|center|400px]]
'''Soul Manipulation''' is the ability to affect a person's soul. Often shown as an offense attack, Soul Manipulation is shown varying across all of fiction.  


Soul Manipulation varies from pulling the Soul out of their bodies, to using Spiritual energy such as Chi.  
==Background==
'''Soul Manipulation''' is the supernatural ability to affect, control, or manipulate a person's soul, often regarded as the essence of their being. This ability is commonly depicted in various forms of fiction, typically as an offensive technique.


It should be noted that just because a user has Soul Manipulation that it bypasses conventional durability, as the use of the ability ranges in fiction, it should be shown that the ability ignores conventional durability. To simply attack a ghost or spiritual entity does not qualify for Soul Manipulation, rather Non-Physical Interaction.
This power usually functions under the assumption that most beings have souls, and those without one are immune to many of its effects unless otherwise specified.


Under most circumstances, characters are presumed to have souls unless shown/stated otherwise, and those without souls are generally considered to be impervious to most forms of Soul Manipulation, unless shown otherwise.
==Applications==
Soul Manipulation can take several forms, including:
*'''Soul Extraction:''' The ability to pull a soul from a living body, often resulting in instant death.
*'''Soul Absorption:''' The ability to absorb another's soul, usually to gain power or knowledge.
*'''Soul Destruction:''' The ability to obliterate a soul completely, ensuring that the individual cannot be resurrected or continue to exist in any form.

*'''Essence vs. Vitality:''' Soul Manipulation deals with the core essence of a person (their personality, emotions, and identity), whereas Spirit Manipulation focuses on the animating life force or consciousness.

*'''Individual vs. Universal:''' Souls are tied to individual identity and often survive death; spirits are more about life energy or the connection to higher, divine forces, and can manifest posthumously as "ghosts."

Soul Manipulation is the supernatural ability to affect, control, or manipulate a person's soul, often regarded as the essence of their being. This ability is commonly depicted in various forms of fiction, typically as an offensive technique.

This power usually functions under the assumption that most beings have souls, and those without one are immune to many of its effects unless otherwise specified.

Applications

Soul Manipulation can take several forms, including:

  • Soul Extraction: The ability to pull a soul from a living body, often resulting in instant death.
  • Soul Absorption: The ability to absorb another's soul, usually to gain power or knowledge.
  • Soul Destruction: The ability to obliterate a soul completely, ensuring that the individual cannot be resurrected or continue to exist in any form.

  • Essence vs. Vitality: Soul Manipulation deals with the core essence of a person (their personality, emotions, and identity), whereas Spirit Manipulation focuses on the animating life force or consciousness.
  • Individual vs. Universal: Souls are tied to individual identity and often survive death; spirits are more about life energy or the connection to higher, divine forces, and can manifest posthumously as "ghosts."
