    Can social influencing help someone to resist Fear or Empathic manipulation?

    As the title mentioned

    Regarding Social Influencing and supernatural effects...?

    Well, this is an issue that came up. See, in Final Fantasy Tactics there's a Job Class called Orator that is described to use words and discourse as their weapons instead of swords or proper combat. Their particular ability, Speechcraft, allows to achive many types of of effects during battle...

    About Social Influencing

    This is what the title says, It seems like that thing got reworked, I feel like vsbw's reworked social influencing needs to be imported into fc/oc's social influencing.

    Social Influencing - Rework

    Hello all, so, I noticed that the Social Influencing page lacks justifications even though it is the strongest abilities of most of the intelligent manipulators in fiction. This will be small. This was made with the help of @RoggerReggor. The current explanation explains only charming people...

    Characters who can use Social Influencing in combat

    Can anyone provide me some examples of characters who have "Social Influencing" that they can use in the midst of combat? Like, not just being charismatic, but being able to apply that in a VS battle setting. Mostly just curious, list anyone that comes to mind.

    The Courier goes on a social influencing gauntlet

    Basically, the Courier must convice the following characters to stop of what they're doing and listen to him with his pure social influencing skills. If he can fully convince them to stop, it counts as a valid wincon. If he fails, he'll have to try shoot his way out or just talk his way out of...

    Social Influencing Addition

    Currently, the description of Social Influencing is stated as such: However, there is some problems: First, it does not address the cooperation skill. I personally feel that Social Influencing should include the capability of cooperating with others, especially considering the existence of...

    My Hero Academia's Second Power System: Supernatural Willpower

    Introduction Heyo everybody, KingofWolves here to give another MHA CRT, a pretty long one too and for only a few characters. This is a pretty weird CRT in that it is discussing an entirely separate power system to the verse, a system that we acknowledge on the wiki but have yet to officially...

    azontr Social Influencing Downgrade

    This mf azontr has OP Social Influencing. He deadass has a harem he didn't even ask for. He even told me he himself can't control his SL. So here I am to make this thread to propose a downgrade for azontr before he turns every straight man on this wiki gay. Proof of azontr stating that SL acts...

    Is extreme physical appearances considered as Social Influencing?

    In fictional works, we sometimes can see characters who have extreme physical appearances and such appearance could induce effects. For example, a character may be too beautiful for other people to hold the will of attacking them. Another example is that a character may be comedic ugly which...

    Social Influencing Minor Change

    This should be changed on the Social Influencing page to "While it does not usually seem combat applicable..." This is because it is very possible for it to be combat applicable. Courier 6 is one of the best examples I can think of, being able to rapidly pacify drug-crazed fiends, ruthless...

    Bobobo minor addition that is secretly major

    I should’ve made this thread yesterday, would’ve been a funny little reference yeah Bobobo needs social influence as it’s an ability that comes from Hajike as the nature of Hajike confuses the opponents and makes them vulnerable to attack in some instances gets them to join in on the act Also...

    Type 1 Corruption isn't Corruption.

    Self-explanatory CRT. This is literally just an application of Social Influencing. Type 1 — "Natural" Corruption: Despite what the name says, it's not natural as in it just happens in nature. Natural as in the opposite of supernatural, as in no powers are required for this. Users can use their...

    Danny Phantom Social Influencing Addition

    I've look at several profiles with this ability on them and I've looked at the page of the ability itself and I'm pretty sure Danny Phantom qualifies for Social Influencing due to showing it on multiple occasions against his enemies in each season. Main Evidence Season 1, Episode 8 "Prisoners...

    Remove Shrek's Fear manipulation from his profile

    Shrek doesn't have fear manipulation. People who are able to skillfully scare others are called social influencers. Shrek doesn't use anything like fear gas or supernatural powers to scare, so why does he have this again? I aim on having this removed from his profile and others for similar...

    Whats the difference between Social Influencing and Mind Manipulation

    I was looking at Weather Reports profile and wondering why his snail thing is counted as Social Influencing and not Mind Manip. I looked at the revision and it seems to because he us subliminal messaging. If that is the case wouldn't Ryota Mitarai from danganronpa (I'm using him as a example...

    Supernatural Abilities in Real World Settings

    It has come to my attention recently from threads such as this and another thread discussing Weather Report's Social Influencing which I can't find at the moment, that we have an issue regarding "supernatural" abilities in settings where there are no superpowers. Or more precisely, powers that...

    Vasco's fear manipulation

    Pretty simple and straightforward. Vasco does not show any signs of good fear manip and should be removed. "Has frequently intimidated many, whether on purpose or not. Driven off girls and gangsters this way. Induced fear to even Jin Jang, a stoic fighter who never lost his cool." The fear...

    Social Influencing for 616 Spider-Man?

    Context for why he should have this: Spider-Man is fighting Colossus and Magik who are currently a part of the Phoenix Force. Obviously, he's getting his ass handed to him. He clearly can't win, but he notices that the two are currently arguing, so what he does is subtly tricks them into...

    Arthur Fleck's social influencing

    The reasoning for his social influencing is like, not even accurate and ignores all context. He himself didn't start the movement on purpose, nor did he ever convince people about starting a movement. They interpreted him wrong and thought he had some kind of message. It's literally an accident...

    Corruption Type 1..

    Since Corruption Type 1 is more influencing people to join the user with words and being persuasive, shouldn't we remove Type 1 and count this as Social Influencing instead? Corruption Type 1 is not really a power Type 2 or 3 are. And a suggestion for the picture

    Let's talk about Fear Manipulation: What qualifies and what doesn't

    I've noticed an issue regarding Fear Manipulation as a whole in several verses. I'll try to keep this short, i believe the criteria for fear manipulation should be updated due to the way it's explained at the moment makes room for inflation. Case and point, Black Clover, from what I'm gathering...

    Let's say the collective consciousness of humanity attempted to think up a new creature to defeat Yujiro and this random-ass worm appeared from the dirt instead (thanks Binah). The Ordeal of Amber Dusk now seeks to taste this creature supposedly at the top of the food chain in order to grow into...

    Is Social Influencing, Mind Manipulation?

    This was a topic that was brought up off-wiki between Agnaa, Hotsauce, and me back when I reassigned Weather Report's passive Mind Manipulation into passive Social Influencing. I argued that Mind Manipulation Resistance won't stop Social Influencing from working. Agnaa and Hotsauce disagreed. We...

    Can this be Social Influencing?

    Being so gross, weird, and smelly that everyone hate you no matter what you try to do, which would make you even more disgusting. (ex: Gamzee Makara in the Homestuck Epilogues or some Minuses from Medaka Box). Social Influencing seems to be more about charm and stuff, but shouldn't the opposite...
