I would close this thread, unless if Firestorm has separate opinion from Reiner's or ActuallySpaceMan's opinion
 
Apologies, I've been working the night shift for the past week.

I'll go over the OP again later today.
I just prefer that you put the abilities that you have a problem with it, to focus on it and not take a long time like before like this:
  • [Your word]
The rest looks fine
 
It is more accurate to say:

Conceptual Manipulation (Type 3; Skilled enough mana users who know the true names of things can change the name, and in turn, manipulate their properties)

Information Manipulation (Type 2; Skilled enough mana users who know the true names of things can change the name, and in turn, manipulate their properties)

Nature of Mana
Passive Effect
Types of Mana
  • Chi Manipulation and Passive Aura(The User has magical aura in nature, as he can manipulate energy that permeates in every natures)
    • Disagree with Chi Manipulation as the use of "life energy" in the series more aligns with the generic use in Western media than Eastern media.
Dark Mana
Rock Monster Physiology
  • All Basic Mana abilities
    • What basic mana abilities?
  • Inorganic Physiology (Type 1; Rock Monster stated to be "Rock Creatures"[36], they are beings made of mana, lack real biological functions.)
  • Self-Size Manipulation (Rock Monster can increase their size[15])
  • Body Control, Fusionism & Weapon Creation (Rock Monster can manipulate their bodies to merge themselves to become armor[15])
  • Immortality:
    • (Type 2; Rock Monster are "durable beings"[14], can still alive even after lose part of their body, or even their body shattered into crumbs[69])
      • Do you have a clip of the monsters actively still moving after losing their head or torso, not just regenerating at a later time.
    • (Type 3 & Regeneration [High-Mid]; Can regenerate himself after their body shattered into crumbs[69])
      • Is there a clip of such regeneration in the later series? This seems like a unique case.
  • Longevity (Rock Monster are "durable beings"[14], which means they are long-lived beings)
    • Is there no better reason for longevity?

Elf Physiology
  • All Basic Mana abilities, plus:
    • What basic abilities?
  • Small Size (Type 0; Elf are very small creatures)
    • Fine
  • Inorganic Physiology (Type 1; Elf is magical creatures, created by jingilator[70].)
    • Not proof that they are inorganic.
  • Immortality (Type 1; They live eternal life as they are live in holiday village that is out of sync with time[70].)
    • Not enough for type 1 rather than longevity. Need proof of "never die of old age" than "stuck forever"
  • Self-Sustenance & Infinite Stamina (Type 3; Elves can work for eternity[70])
  • Transmutation, Body Puppetry and Curse Manipulation (Their Mana powers is curse power can curse everything in town[70], show when elf changes Max to Santa Claus and control him like toy[70])
  • Sound Manipulation (Elf can turn Max's laughter into Santa Claus' laughter[70])
    Resistance to:
  • Magic Negation (Their curse magic powers can't be nullify even if source this curse was destroyed[70])
Weaknesses
  • Revise to: If someone's personality starts changing, tracking a being's aura using their personal items becomes less effective as the original aura reading becomes weaker.
  • Rest is fine.
 
It is more accurate to say:

Conceptual Manipulation (Type 3; Skilled enough mana users who know the true names of things can change the name, and in turn, manipulate their properties)

Information Manipulation (Type 2; Skilled enough mana users who know the true names of things can change the name, and in turn, manipulate their properties)
What do you mean?
Nature of Mana
  • Abstract Existence (Type 1 [Concept, Name & Magic]; Mana is the essential name of a thing/being/nature, and is the substance of magic.)
    • Disagree. Mana is not the names of things, but Mana can be used to manipulate names.
It literally Charmcaster say Names are "Powers", which means it refers to Mana. Even name of Legerdomain stated to be magic
No one talked about Ben's face, Rock say "Gwen suggest that I carry some emergency magical supplies for maladies of a sorcerous nature"
  • Teleportation, Dimensional Travel & BFR Negation (Mana can passively negated any dimension travel and teleportat, as shown here and here)
    • Mana blocks Dimension Shifting through it, not negates.
    • Negating tech-based Teleportation seems fine.
    • "BFR Negation" is too broad of a description. What do you mean?
It Passive nullify Teleportation and Dimensional Travel, shown when it make Azmuth's Father can't use his teleportation to become. It makes Esoterica can't travel between dimensions
No, Transmutation is for change beings in many ways, including form, so it's not limited
Transmutation is the ability to alter the form of energy, beings, objects, matter, etc. to change it into something else.
Why? It makes Ben back to Human form when it becomes close to Ultimatrix.
Passive Effect
We literally seen this when Gwen was in Legerdomain
Types of Mana

Abilities of Basic Mana users

See this

Not same but Ignaceous say their race can regenerate himself and he can regenerate himself after part of his body was cracked.

No?

They are "magical" beings, magical creatures like Rock Monster doesn't have DNA
  1. She did not say that. Refer to the transcript.
  2. Regardless, that doesn't justify "passive," just magic related.
  3. Blocking dimension slipping travel like a wall is not negation. BFR negation but only for Tech Teleportation is fine.
  4. If the other staff are fine with transmutation, it's fine.
  5. That's not passive. She literally threw mana at it.
  6. Then why did you give a non-series forest example and not a legerdomain one from the series?
  7. Mana was used for payment for Dagon to use his powers. It's not mana-based. Nor is it conventionally unholy.
  8. Bruh... List the "Abilities of Basic Mana" users
  9. Fine
  10. Fine.
  11. I disagree with this justification for Rock Monster Longevity. Do we not have an example of a very old rock monster being around for more than a human lifetime?
  12. Elves being "magical" is not proof of inorganic status. Even Ben and Gwen become elves.
 
  1. She did not say that. Refer to the transcript.

Ok
  1. That's not passive. She literally threw mana at it.
No, hte spell was working for something else, but when Mana approached Ben, it brought him back to Human
  1. Then why did you give a non-series forest example and not a legerdomain one from the series?
What statments explained is that when a user becomes surrounded by a mana it becomes more powerful and that's why I put it to be more clear
  1. Mana was used for payment for Dagon to use his powers. It's not mana-based. Nor is it conventionally unholy.
No, it stated that is powers of Dark Magic, and in order for Charmcaster to mask Dagon to return her father, she made a deal with him. It's Dark Magic/Mana which means it's Dark Soul, and it's stated to be "forbidden" and become more dark when the user became more evil.
  1. Bruh... List the "Abilities of Basic Mana" users
I put example of users, not all of them?
  1. I disagree with this justification for Rock Monster Longevity. Do we not have an example of a very old rock monster being around for more than a human lifetime?
Ok (Let's leave this in another CRT)
  1. Elves being "magical" is not proof of inorganic status. Even Ben and Gwen become elves.
Yh, but not full as it said that should be get out of this place before the curse is complete. That's why they didn't become like the rest of Elves

  1. "Names are power" is a metaphor like "Knowledge is power." Names are not literally made of mana. It is a means of control through using mana.
  2. Magic can be used to cause medical conditions, yes.
  3. Done.
  4. Done.
  5. Gwen threw mana into the center of the hole where the device was. Prove that the mana ball landed "next to the device" to prove it acted passively.
  6. Are there any in-series statements from legerdomain that corroborate the original claim.
  7. Unholy Manipulation is the power to control and generate energies, elements, objects and entities that have been deemed hellish, demonic or unholy, forces that are connected with demons, evil spirits and anti-gods.
    1. Using magic to sacrifice souls to revive someone is morally evil, but it's not our definition of Unholy.
    2. Resurrection via Dagon's Magic is fine.
  8. To reiterate, is this the only thing listed for "basic mana abilities"?
    1. Chi Manipulation and Passive Aura
  9. Done.
  10. You need to prove that Elves are inherently inorganic. Like a toy from Toy Story, they can lose an arm and be fine. EX: They don't bleed, etc.

This is not Information Manipulation Type 2.
It is they can manipulate data to manipulate Mana/Essence, also why "Limited"
  1. "Names are power" is a metaphor like "Knowledge is power." Names are not literally made of mana. It is a means of control through using mana.
It literally stated to be Mana ("magic word"). Even Charmcaster say:
Magic isn't such a big deal. It's mostly just knowing the secret names of things.
If you still iffy on it we can change it to essence
  1. Gwen threw mana into the center of the hole where the device was. Prove that the mana ball landed "next to the device" to prove it acted passively.
The spell was working to bring Ben back to consciousness, but for some reason his spell didn't do it and Mana did the opposite. If you don't agree with it passive, so it can add Technology Manipulation (via spell or effect of mana; 2 Layers, possibly 3 Layers) via this scan
  1. Are there any in-series statements from legerdomain that corroborate the original claim.
Yh of course, here and here. Also I have more statement that mama users can become more powerful when they in a place full of Mana;
Hex when he in his library, stated to be more powerful and equal to Charmcaster (in Legerdomain):
Charmcaster: A protection spell, how maddeningly like my worthless uncle. (to her bag) No one can enter Hex's library without his presence. Well I can't go in there when he is, duh! Uncle Hex is all powerful in his library, like you used to be in Legerdomain before I-
  1. Unholy Manipulation is the power to control and generate energies, elements, objects and entities that have been deemed hellish, demonic or unholy, forces that are connected with demons, evil spirits and anti-gods.
    1. Using magic to sacrifice souls to revive someone is morally evil, but it's not our definition of Unholy.
  • Empowerment: Users obtain inhuman levels of strength, speed, stamina, and even increase one's mental and spiritual capabilities by being empowered by evil entities. Few users can even become a vessel for a greater evil.
  • Energy/Elemental Manipulation: Generate, shape and control the innate energies, elements, and matter innate from the depts of hell, such hellfire, faust water, cursed earth, and corrupted light, as there's no element that can't be considered unholy. Due to their esoteric nature, these forces may be capable to directly affect the soul of the target, ignoring conventional durability and protections.
  • Corruption: Turns the purest soul and twist the clearest mind by inducing sin and vice into the heart. Some times, converting beings into demons, devil or other types of evil spirit its possible.
Dark Mana blast passively can absorb soul of beings and ignoring conventional durability, and it's mana was corrupted by evil of user.
    1. Resurrection via Dagon's Magic is fine.
Ok
  • To reiterate, is this the only thing listed for "basic mana abilities"?
    1. Chi Manipulation and Passive Aura
And all powers & abilities of Mana Manipulation & Spells.
  • You need to prove that Elves are inherently inorganic. Like a toy from Toy Story, they can lose an arm and be fine. EX: They don't bleed, etc.
Why? This doesn't need for Inorganic Physiology. Even there many characters has Inorganic Physiology via:

And all powers & abilities of Mana Manipulation & Spells.

Adam: "Pure Light beings"
  1. What examples are you referring to?
  2. Don't use scripts as primary references. Only use them to clarify stuff in the final product.
  3. What do you mean by "change it to essence"?
  4. I disagree with passive effects. Remind me the layer chain for 2, possibly 3.
  5. Empowerment based on location and setup is fine.
  6. What scans are you using for these alleged dark mana abilities?
  7. N/A
  8. I highly doubt that the Rock Monsters are capable of doing everything under "all powers & abilities of Mana Manipulation & Spells"
  9. I don't know why that was added for Adam. It doesn't even meet our site requirements.
 
  1. What examples are you referring to?
I meant why it's "limited", also I meant this.
  1. Don't use scripts as primary references. Only use them to clarify stuff in the final product.
  2. What do you mean by "change it to essence"?
I use it as additional support. Like this: Abstract Existence (Type 1 [Essence & Magic])
  1. I disagree with passive effects. Remind me the layer chain for 2, possibly 3.
I meant Passive Effect would be "1 Layer, possibly 2 Layers", Active Effect would be "2 Layers, possibly 3 Layers", since it passively effects and same time it need to be activate like Time Power
  1. What scans are you using for these alleged dark mana abilities?
Here and here
  1. N/A
  2. I highly doubt that the Rock Monsters are capable of doing everything under "all powers & abilities of Mana Manipulation & Spells"
They can use spells, also it's not too hard to manipulate mana.
  1. I don't know why that was added for Adam. It doesn't even meet our site requirements.
It matches what is described in Inorganic Physiology.
The ability to be made of inorganic matter. Users of this ability are unaffected by many things which would be lethal to organic beings or even the undead.
