- Rename or Redefine Objects and Abilities: By manipulating the terms that define something, users can completely rewrite what an ability or object is, or even erase its definition, rendering it powerless or nonexistent.
- Contextual Manipulation: Users can alter the context in which words or terms are used, shifting the reality of a situation by changing the language's meaning in real time.
- Reality Shifting via Language: By changing the linguistic properties of an object or concept, users can influence how reality interacts with those things.
- Definition Control: The ability to rewrite or remove the definitions of terms, effectively rewriting reality according to the user's intentions.
- Naming Power: Users can give or strip names from people, objects, or concepts, controlling their significance and identity.
