In the story of Perseus, (the real one, not Jackson) a woman was locked up in a tower in order to prevent a prophecy about a son of her and Zeus killing her father, the king. In order for Zeus to... piss off Hera a bit more... he turned himself into golden light to get through a crack in the room and impregnate the woman. Since light can't be touched, should Zeus have selective intangibility on his profile?
 
Turning into light seems to be more non-corporeality than intangibility. A source would also be appreciated.
 
Well I'm not familiar with Percy Jackson, so maybe Zeus is non-corporeal. I'm just saying if he's a physical being who turned himself into light, it's intangibility. Was that the case?
 
Lol didn't go to bed until 8am so my mind's all boggly and misread OP. My bad xD
 
The case was him trying to get into a crack in a tower, and disguised himself as a golden, something. It was either a shower of gold, a literal ray of golden sunshine... Myths are hard to pin down.
 
Alright. Beam of light seems more likely given what you said. Which would be him turning himself intangible. Let's see what others have to say though.
 
Can't you touch light, though? I mean, you can't hold it, but you can touch it. Like, isn't that why shadows are formed?
 
Turning into light is strictly speaking not intangibility (as Jucaslucas said one can easily interact with light). That ability is sometimes refered to as logia intangibility, but if you want to write it down it would be good to just write that he can turn into light (you can link that to light manipulation, i suppose), alternatively one can also understand it as subpower of shapeshifting (see full conversion). Some profiles also list it is limited intangibility.

Main point is write it down with explanation that it is turning into light.
 
Could you unlock the profile real quick for me to do it? Also need to put fate manipulation, petrification, and can change other's genders.
 
Done. But do you know the hardships of wanting to know if something is true or not? Such as Zeus' hax~ I never got that chance, Cal. Never~
 
Yeah, that sounded really weird of what i just put here.

But seriously, the page is unlocked for editing now...
 
Almost done. Does Fate Manipulation fall under Probability Manipulation, Causality Manipulation, or Life and Death Manipuation?
