Lower-Dimensional Existence (Zero-Dimensional; Exists in "the abyss of No dimensions"), Reality Warping (Personal Reality; Controls their own universe as "his own World, his own Universe"), Omnipresence (Lower-Dimensional Omnipresence; Exists in a state of omnipresence, being the whole zero-dimensional universe itself), Immortality (Agelesss; Exists eternally as "Nothing and therefore All"), Self-Sustenance (Nutritional, Restful, & Respiratory; Self-sustaining existence as shown by "what he thinks, that he utters; and what he utters, that he hears"), Acausality (Causality Immunity; Exists outside normal causality as shown by having "no cognizance even of the number Two"), Power Nullification (Passive; Nullifies all external influences as "the Point has no surroundings"), Personal Nonexistence (Metaphysical Nonexistence; Described as "being really Nothing"), Mind Manipulation (Self Only; Interprets all external input as their own thoughts), Abstract Existence (Information, Absolute Abstraction; A point has Hausdorff dimension 0 and exists as a pure mathematical concept, [1])
Notable Techniques
Absolute Solipsism: The Monarch exists in a state where:
- Interprets all external input as internal thoughts.
- Maintains complete control over its zero-dimensional reality.
- Cannot be affected by higher dimensional beings.
Dimensional Transcendence Immunity: The Monarch is immune to attempts by higher dimensional beings to make it comprehend additional dimensions.
