NNT: Fear Manip Discussion

Cases like where fear manipulation could scare things like souls were stated to be feasible under Mystical of Fear Manipulation in the thread where fear manipulation was revised, and additions like the quote texts from the OP were made the Fear Manipulation; I could see fear manipulation still being fine.

Though, there might be a point about a caveat; it tends to take care of under standards battle assumptions:
Eh, this is fine
@Elizhaa @DemonGodMitchAubin

Can fear manipulation stay in the pages then, or does anything need to be changed based on this thread?
 
Cusack did scare the souls but I still don't see what's implying that Zeldris is scaring the souls.

I also want to point out that if scaring the souls counts as fear manip, only Cusack (and maybe the other 3 if evidence is given) should have it as no other demon did that.
 
It's not shown to be some special ability to Cusack only, and is most likely just an offset of him being one of the top 4 highest ranking demons, but that's a conversation for another day and sounds kinda iffy. Would the Original Demon (Cusack and Chandler fusion) and thus the Demon King (iirc the OG Demon is just an offset of his power) have it aswell?
 
Thank you for the reply.

Should we close this thread then?
 
This thread is not done as the remaining demons did not perform a similar feat and therefore should not have fear manipulation
 
Exactly galands mere presence overwhelmed sladers magic which work on grey demon Hendrickson who was superior to slader
1/ I need scans of the latter

2/ Overwhelming slader's magic doesn't mean what Galand did was inducing fear. Slader wasn't even afraid, has just wounded by that aura or whatever he did
 
I’d say link the scan of it happening to save time because every time something on the profile is used as justification for another thing, it just gets brought into question too.
That seems like a good idea, but you are obviously not allowed to link directly to illegal scanslation sites, only to single scans hosted at Imgur or similar.
 
I do not think so.

I agree, it’s more akin to social influencing where one displays their power to inflict fear on those that are capable of sensing it.

With that said, I disagree with cusack receiving Fear Manipulation because he inflicted fear on souls with his superior strength. That just means that the souls are capable of sensing Cusack’s power and such high power scares them. Arthur has been consistently shown to be inferior to Cusack from the cases being presented in this thread.

Gowther has a good fear manipulation feat, however @Majinere566 has already made a CRT on it.

That’s my take.

Sorry but the aura is what caused the fear not sensing his power also Arthur does scale to them as he sliced trough them like butter nothing suggest they lowered their durability. Merlin says that their aura is overwhelming and causes fear.
That makes sense to me at least.

Arthur caught base Cusack off guard with skillful sword attacks, the sword granted Aurthur power that his body couldn’t even handle. And regardless of the Cusack’s underestimation of Arthur and the damage he “sustained” Cusack still did not see the attacks as a threat, but he was impressed Aurthur was that skilled.

The aura was a display of their power, Cusack also used his status as one of the demons of the highest order. He is superior to Arthur. And that isn’t fear manipulation, it’s social influencing.

Other demons have used fear aura as Galand using his own aura to scare slayer who was using overpower that worked on ash grey Hendrickson who was way stronger than him
