Conceptual Manipulation

Background

Conceptual Manipulation is the ability to manipulate, create, and destroy concepts, which are the fundamental ideas or definitions that govern various aspects of reality. This ability allows users to indirectly alter the world around them by changing the underlying concepts that dictate how reality functions.

Concepts can be anything from abstract notions like Time, Space, or Existence, to more specific ideas such as Energy, Life, or Death. By manipulating these concepts, users can alter the essence of objects, beings, or even entire systems within the universe.

Each concept is inherently tied to the objects or entities that embody it. Therefore, changing a concept causes all related items to mirror that change, making conceptual manipulation one of the most powerful and far-reaching abilities.

Applications

• Creation of Concepts: Users can generate new concepts, thereby defining new rules or structures within reality.
• Conceptual Alteration: Users can modify existing concepts to enhance, diminish, or completely change the effects of related objects or forces. For example, altering the concept of Reality could change how the physical universe behaves, while manipulating the concept of Energy could affect how energy is used or perceived.
• Concept Destruction: Users can erase concepts, effectively removing the foundational idea that supports various phenomena, leading to the collapse or disappearance of related objects or forces.

Limitations

This ability allows for near-unlimited reality control but is subject to the limitations of beings or entities that fall outside the conceptual framework.
