Ah, I seePower Modification
Just a note that I find it good that Promestein created a Superhuman Precision page, as it covers all types of precision, not just Marksmanship.This is a very basic example page for an ability I think the wiki is lacking - Superhuman Precision.
As it is, this ability is currently covered by several things in conjunction - Enhanced Senses, Martial Arts, and Weapon Mastery, even though it's really it's own thing, a specific ability that should be noted separately; after all, it has its own specific applications and implications. I know there are a lot of examples, but I can't think of many that are well-known enough to serve as good ones.
As for the disclaimer of something that doesn't qualify, here's an example; Raiden is able to affect molecular bonds with his sword strikes, but that's a property of the sword, not a consequence of his own skill and precision. This doesn't mean he isn't a potential contender, but you'd have to make a different argument to get him listed.
BumpPulling (the best name i could think of)
This ability is for characters who are able to pull things towards them, at times not being relied on with telekinesis.
Some ways this could be done are:
Hookshots or other traditional weapons as shown by Roadhog (Overwatch) and Scorpion (Mortal Kombat)
Magic as shown by Gene (Brawl Stars)
Tractor Beams as shown by several starships from Star Trek
Application of telekinesis in general, or by weak telekinesis like Inko Midoriya's Quirk (My Hero Academia, and in her case, it would be Limited Pulling since she seems to only be able to pull small objects, and needs to pull them multiple times to have them reach her)
Also, we don't have a power for tractor beams other than for Energy Projection which doesn't elaborate on the actual capabilities of them, and they're one of the staple science fiction abilities like Forcefield Creation. Might as well include similar abilities that have a similar function (like Roadhog or Scorpion as mentioned).

Doesn't seem needed. Its more just tools or tech being used for this which can be explained within notable powers/tech or in pna section. If a pulls ambiguous then tk is a safe option to categorize it really.Bump

I do not think that seems like a sufficiently prominent or specific ability to create an entire page for. My apologies.Team Combination or Team Effort

The ability, by it's name, implies that it is a holy type of ability or strictly a positive one. The problem with that is there are various ways abilities like the page specified could be negative, have cons, or simply just not being accurately described as such by name but fitting the description.
Ignoring the naming problem however, there should be some additional categories to it due to how common they are. Off the top of my head very obvious examples are Divine and Unholy/Cursed, there are various types of media which have these types of boons in them and they have stereotypical abilities tied to them.
Also an addition of possible weaknesses could also be added since boons can often have things like specific rules that the boon is incapable of breaking, might grant disadvantageous weaknesses as a cost for the power, or the boon could be revoked if the character commits an action that goes against it.
Well if we have to keep the page, we would need a reason for it. Characters would:What do you think about this?
F
even though it's hardly has anything on it LOL
i feel like this get overlapped by EmpowermentThen I say Enhancement since its just being enhanced by something in some fashion.
Shouldn't it just be combined with Empowerment then? Since you can change Empowerment pretty easily to overlap with the current Blessed profile.i feel like this get overlapped by Empowerment
there are a plan to merge Empowerment and some other overlapped abilities but it went no whereShouldn't it just be combined with Empowerment then? Since you can change Empowerment pretty easily to overlap with the current Blessed profile.

Approximately 6% of the character profiles on the wiki have that. I'd hardly say hardly anything has it, and indeed every day it is shocking to me to learn what people know/don't know about lol.
I was referring to the page itself having hardly anything written on it, not that hardly anyone had the ability.Approximately 6% of the character profiles on the wiki have that.

Honestly, I feel like that's just cause it's not used when it's meant to be. I mentioned it earlier but the pages that used to have it just had the ability removed for some reason and many characters who would qualify for it simply just don't like the ones I mentioned before.It is a much less used page (about 1/4th of Power Bestowal, on that subject) so scrapping it would have less of an impact
That's kinda the problem with the page, it isn’t that. Its ment to be abilities that can be bestowed from Power Bestowal with there being no actual mention of divine or godly origin to it. However due to the naming of it people just assume it is.I feel that this one does need some clarifications explaining what it means to be blessed with power instead of simply have it bestowed upon one. If that cannot be done, then infusing it into the Power Bestowal page would suffice, since we can easily just add a section dictating bestowed powers from divine sources, which would make the page as it is moot.
That leaves one of the initial problems though, being its name. As you mentioned, it is not meant to be specifically from a divine source, and yet the name heavily implies it is so. Power Bestowal is far more of a generic title that fits the needs of the page sufficiently well, so unless you have a better descriptor, I don't think choosing Blessed over Power Bestowal is wise.That's kinda the problem with the page, it isn’t that.

I'd argue Power Bestowal should be infused into it rather than the other way around, since the Blessing page is the actual ways power can be bestowed rather than just 3 sentences describing the act of giving powers.
Empowerment is probably the best name for it, with the actual page for it being so vague itself that it could probably be listed as a type of Blessing (pretty sure every Lanturn Ring user would qualify for it)Power Bestowal is far more of a generic title that fits the needs of the page sufficiently well, so unless you have a better descriptor, I don't think choosing Blessed over Power Bestowal is wise.
If the page were to be absorbed into something else, that's probably the name to go for with both Power Bestowal and Empowerment having links to one other due to how both of them are tied together.So would you say that we should infuse Blessed into Empowerment instead?
IIrc essence was rejected because it was too similar to info 2.Can we get a general fundamental aspect page?
This is something that exists within the regards of Regeneration and Nonexistent Physiology. This is so we can index mechanics that fundamental aspects within the verse since we can apparently no longer equate them with information manipulation or conceptual manipulation. These would be for things like essence, star seeds in my case for Sailor Moon. I foresee it as being a catchall so abilities don't fall through the cracks and we have language to speak about them.
Seems to just not exist now, could probably be lumped into whatever the Blessing results are as a "Binding" or "Bound" type of enhancementAnyway what ever happened to Exclusive Equipment for items that can only be wielded by a specific wielder and things like Thor's hammer etc.

We merge all 3 powers and divide the new merged power into 2 types (like how we have Concept types and Infomation types), with one type being the one who bestow power on others (the giver) while the other type is the one who get bestowed (the receiver). About name, should just merge into Empowerment or Power Bestowal, since the name isn't sematically conflicting, since you can Empower/Bestow power others or get Empowered/Bestowed by someone, or even bothOkay, so we have a couple of options laid out for us, then.
Does anyone else have any opinions on this? I do think the second opinion would be helpful here.
- Combine Blessed into Power Bestowal
- Combine Blessed into Empowerment
- Combine all three
I agree with the main merge being Empowerment, it's a good catch-all term for it that allows proper naming for both aspects of itWe merge all 3 powers and divide the new merged power into 2 types (like how we have Concept types and Infomation types), with one type being the one who bestowe power on others (the giver) while the other type is the one who get bestowed (the receiver). About name, should just merge into Empowerment, since the name isn't sematically conflicting, since you can Empower others or get Empowered by someone, or even both, or Power Bestowal
