==Summary==
'''Range''' refers to how far the attacks of a certain character can efficiently reach on their own.


For more information about different units of length, please see [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length) this] page. However, a general guide for categorizing range has been listed below.

==Background==
'''Range''' is the concept of how far one can reach with their standard attacks or other abilities. The measurement of range comes from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length) different units of length]. It should be noted when using abilities such as [[Teleportation]], [[Dimensional Travel]], [[Reality Warping]], etcetera, would count as their own range separate from one's physical range.


'''Standard melee range''' (ranges from 1 to 3 meters)
'''Unknown: Lower Reality:''' Unknown distance.
*Similar to '''Unknown-E''' in the [[Tiering System]], as one cannot truly quantify the energy within a "fictional world", one cannot truly quantify the distance within it either.


*Applies to fighters using mostly their arms and legs as weapons
'''Below Standard Melee:''' 0 - 50 centimeters
* Applies to [[Small Size|small]] characters.
 
'''Standard Melee:''' Around 50 centimeters-1.5 meters

'''Extended melee range''' (ranges from 3 to 10 meters)

Background

Range is the concept of how far one can reach with their standard attacks or other abilities. The measurement of range comes from different units of length.
