Essence Manipulation is the ability to manipulate, create, and/or destroy essence. Essence is the property or set of properties that make an entity or object what it fundamentally is, and without it, ceases to exist as that entity or object. Essence is more basic and primary than the body, soul, and mind. The physical form of an entity or object is just a projection of it's essence.


If a user of Essence Manipulation, manipulate a human being's essence, The user is not just manipulating the properties that the human being has, but the properties that makes a human being, a human being. In more detail, human beings can have different hair colors, different heights, different skin colors, different shapes and sizes and still be a human being. Changing any of these properties, or all of them, will not change that fact that a person is a still a human being. Change a human being's essence, however, the human being ceases to exist as a human being and exists as something entirely different. This is where Essence Manipulation differs from other abilities like, [[Information Manipulation]] and [[Matter Manipulation]].
==Background==
'''Essence Manipulation''' is the supernatural ability to manipulate, create, and/or destroy the essence of beings or objects. Essence refers to the fundamental nature or properties that define what something or someone truly is. Unlike abilities that manipulate the body, mind, or soul, Essence Manipulation deals with the core foundation of an entity's existence. Without its essence, a being ceases to be what it fundamentally is.
 
Essence Manipulation allows a user to alter not just external traits or superficial qualities, but the inherent properties that determine an entity’s very nature. For example, while changing a person's appearance (such as hair color, height, or other physical attributes) doesn't affect their identity as a human, altering their essence can completely transform them into something non-human, erasing the original entity.
 
This ability can even extend to abstract aspects like personality, identity, or consciousness, meaning the user could rewrite a person’s essence to create a completely new individual. This makes Essence Manipulation distinct from other abilities like [[Information Manipulation]] or [[Matter Manipulation]], as it operates on a much deeper level.
 
==Applications==
*'''Essence Alteration:''' Changing the fundamental properties of an entity, altering their nature, purpose, or existence.
*'''Essence Creation:''' Forming entirely new entities or objects by crafting their essence from scratch.
Essence Destruction: Removing the core essence of an entity or object, effectively erasing it from existence.
 
==Limitations==
*Manipulating essence requires profound knowledge and control, as altering one’s core nature could have unintended consequences.


High levels of Essence manipulation can also effect abstract things as well, such as personality and identity. You can manipulate the essence of a person's personality to completely change that person. The person ceases to exist as who they were and a new, distinctly different person takes the place of the former.

Demongo (Samurai Jack) is a demonic entity that collects the "essence" of those slain by him, enslaving them to his will and becoming his own army.

Background

Essence Manipulation is the supernatural ability to manipulate, create, and/or destroy the essence of beings or objects. Essence refers to the fundamental nature or properties that define what something or someone truly is. Unlike abilities that manipulate the body, mind, or soul, Essence Manipulation deals with the core foundation of an entity's existence. Without its essence, a being ceases to be what it fundamentally is.

Essence Manipulation allows a user to alter not just external traits or superficial qualities, but the inherent properties that determine an entity’s very nature. For example, while changing a person's appearance (such as hair color, height, or other physical attributes) doesn't affect their identity as a human, altering their essence can completely transform them into something non-human, erasing the original entity.

This ability can even extend to abstract aspects like personality, identity, or consciousness, meaning the user could rewrite a person’s essence to create a completely new individual. This makes Essence Manipulation distinct from other abilities like Information Manipulation or Matter Manipulation, as it operates on a much deeper level.

Applications

  • Essence Alteration: Changing the fundamental properties of an entity, altering their nature, purpose, or existence.
  • Essence Creation: Forming entirely new entities or objects by crafting their essence from scratch.

Essence Destruction: Removing the core essence of an entity or object, effectively erasing it from existence.

Limitations

  • Manipulating essence requires profound knowledge and control, as altering one’s core nature could have unintended consequences.
