Fate Manipulation

Background

Fate Manipulation is the ability to perceive, influence, and alter destiny, allowing the user to shape future events according to their will. This ability can manifest in various ways, from subtly nudging probability to rewriting the course of history entirely. Some users can manipulate their own fate, while others can control the destinies of those around them, ensuring predetermined outcomes or avoiding unwanted ones.

Also Called

• Fate Alteration

Possible Applications

• Altering the course of future events: Changing what is destined to happen.
• Rewriting the fate of individuals or objects: Assigning a new destiny.
• Causing unlikely occurrences to happen with certainty: Making improbable events inevitable.
• Restructuring cause-and-effect relationships: Manipulating causality to alter outcomes.
• Controlling the circumstances of life and death: Deciding who lives or dies through fate.
• Changing reality by redefining predetermined outcomes: Overwriting established destiny.
• Foreseeing the destinies of others: Gaining knowledge of future events.

Potential Types

• External Fate Manipulation: The power to alter the destinies of others, influencing their successes, failures, or ultimate fate.
• Absolute Fate Manipulation: The ability to control all fates without restriction, ensuring that all events occur as the user desires.
• Selective Fate Manipulation: The user can only control specific aspects of fate, such as a person's survival or an event's success.
• Circumstantial Fate Manipulation: The ability to change destiny through indirect means, such as altering the past via time travel to influence the future.
• Predestined Fate Control: The power to ensure that a predetermined fate always happens, preventing any deviation from the destined outcome.

Limitations
