an object/entity is composed of numbers, complex equations and be pure mathematics.
can it count as an abstract entity? and what concept would give someone to manipulate or destroy it.
I know that Concept type 2 affects acausal beings, But the abstract entities that represent a type 2 concept could be considered as acausal beings since it transcends reality in a similar way?
I never liked the Abstract Existence page and it now seems like a good time to tackle it given 2 threads where its structure & wording made problems. Here's a breakdown of the page.
>"Abstract Existence is the ability to embody an abstraction.. "
"Embodiment/embody" is a dumb word that most of...
I-no for some strange reason has type 3 but that doesn't exist on wiki and it's only mentioned Here, but I'm wondering if this even helps her type 5 immortality or not.
Planning an upcoming CRT for Persona and this came up.
Shadows are abstract manifestations of negative thoughts and emotions that exist within every human mind. Their true forms are completely abstract, having no biology and being entirely incorporeal, and they only take a sort of 'physical'...
How powerful is being a concept against characters who don't have conceptual manipulation? Is it a straight up stomp or can a character without conceptual manipulation beat a concept through sheer hax?
Well, i don't want to spend a lot of time into this since i don't care as a whole those kind of stuff so i'll be bref:
There in this thread some discussion about where all this stuff started, according to the discussion, it seem that there is some conflictual requierement for being a Type 1...
I am curious about something. The page for Abstract Existence states "Abstract Existence is the ability to embody an abstraction, such as a concept, thought, or an information".
What exactly does being the embodiment of information mean? Could it be something like an A.I? Or is it something...
Inspired from this thread: Soul Manipulation Adjustment
This thread is on updating the Conceptual Manipulation page like the other thread did with the Soul Manipulation's.
Currently, Conceptual Manipulation is roughly described as Conceptual Manipulation is the ability to manipulate, create...
https://vsbattles.com/vsbattles/3028045?useskin=oasis#157 <———- this thread is where I and I think (correct me if I am wrong) Ant noticed that characters can be embodiments of concepts [and other stuff] without being literal ideas (type 1) or existing as a part of ideas or something (whatever...
From this thread, Abstract Existence Type 3 was removed. So, this thread is made to decide whether abstract existence should be removed from the verse or revised to be another type.
Currently, I think I think the proper option would be removing Abstract Existence Type 3.
So I was thinking about this for a while but basically
If a character can hit a Type 1 abstract, can they hit Type 2 nonexistents?
Type 2 NPE is a conceptual Nonexistence, but if you can hit a concept itself would that qualify for hitting Type 2 NPE? I'm asking this because from what i've...
so this idea cam fro Ultima Reality's comment
"Ultima Reality wrote: That page is ostensibly outdated in relation to the current Tiering System; At the very least we should start using different terminology from "False" and "True" Platonic Concepts, since Platonism is one of those philosophies...
I'll try to be brief. Perhaps it is something missing from the profiles, but as they stand, the profiles for the Touhou Gods have basically all of them as Type 1 Abstracts, beings who exist and concepts and ideas, yet are also stated to precede the existence of conception. How does this work? If...
Well, character A has an object that allows him to totally control a facet of existence, for example souls.
then you could say that this object has Conceptual Manipulation? (if so it would be type 4 to 3 or 2?)
Woould being a living shadow grant non-existence physiology or at least non-corporeality?. Since they lack an actual physical form. I've been wondering about this question and I would like some answers from people that know this sort of thing more then me.
Side Question: Would being a being...
Would 'Selective Abstract Existence' be one of the three types? I was wondering this, so I analyzed type and noticed that it contradicts the qualification(s) for Type 1—lacking a true physical form. To me, it's likely not Type 2 either. Seems like it would be Type 3 since characters with...
everyone with type 2 and 3 abstract existence has conceptual attacks and is conceptual in nature?
or only type 1 has conceptual attacks?
according to google embodiment is "a tangible or visible form of an idea, quality, or feeling"
so they are tangible concepts and as result conceptual in nature?
galactus and its abstract existence type 1
well according to the page of abstract existence type 1 Exists purely as an abstraction. These characters lack a true physical form, and affecting them requires the ability to affect directly the abstraction itself, because eventual physical...
Can an abstract existence Type 1 be affected without conceptual manipulation that such with a high level of hax information? and the negation of Mid-Godly Regenerationn based on reconstructing its concept, can it null abstract existence type 2?
embodiments of abstract ideas have abstract existence? like embodiment of life or death?
of in order to having abstract existence they must be abstract idea itself?
Type 1: Exists purely as an abstraction. These characters lack a true physical form, and affecting them requires the ability to affect directly the abstraction itself, because eventual physical manifestations are merely avatars.
Type 2: Embodies an abstraction, and can be resurrected or...
This is the origin story for Coyote from Gunnerkrigg Court as told by Coyote. I was talking to someone on discord about it and they said it possibly meant he had Abstract Existence, but I'd like to hear what others have to say about it.

If I understand this right, Type 1 AE means you're purely an abstract being while Type 2 grants you Type 3 and 8 Immortality and/or Regenerationn of it right?
Also Type 1 AE doesn't give you Regenerationn either, no? And is it also possible for one to have more than one type of AE, like get...
I'm aware that Mimihagi having Abstract Existence was rejected due to the current wording had to be redone. However i believe i found an ability that fits Mimihagi even more than Abstract Existence would. That being acausality type 2 for reasons I'll get into. But first lets examine the current...
So it's stated Zamasu not only merged with the Universe, but became "one with Justice and Order itself". https://imgur.com/a/fvwN96U
I think this could qualify him for Abstract existance by being the concepts of order and of Justice themselves.
I also think he could get Concept manipulation...
Born out of this thread. Should read it (or at least the later parts of it) before contributing to this.
Currently, Abstract Existence type 3 is defined as such:
Type 3: Embodies an abstraction, but the destruction of the former isn't needed in order to destroy or affect them. These...
I'm making this thread because I think our abstract existence page is lacking. There needs to be an inclusion or at least a 4th type of abstraction for characters whom are made from abstract material.
Characters that are made from abstract material. These characters don't embody a specific...
Since being Abstract (type1) you basically a living concept so does that mean you don't need to eat or breath by default? or you need feat to prove that?
I am creating this thread to inquire about adding these two abilities to Queen Metalia's Profile:
Abstract Existence (type 1)
Nonexistent Physiology (type 1)
based on this description of her

My first question is, what type of concept manipulation is a concept which governs all objects under it in reality, but where the concept itself is altered itself by the perception of sentient beings?
This is specifically in reference to aberrations in the Monogatari series.

In a game I'm currently playing, they describe the enemies as possibilities that don't exist. On the Abstract Existence page, it states that a possibility is a form of abstraction so I am asking if they are Abstract or Nonexistent.
