There's some points in Othinus' page (and by extension, other Magic Gods') that I feel should be changed.
1. We list causality manipulation for this snippet: "make an apple dropped from below fall up" This is a huge assumption given that causality or cause/effect aren't mentioned in relation to the Magic Gods there or IIRC anywhere else. This should be changed to Gravity Manipulation, a much more reasonable explanation. We wouldn't give Matter Manipulation to someone who has the ability to magically create objects. Speaking of Creation...
2. Her page and the other magic gods pages are missing Creation, which is one of the basic powers of magic gods. Her page is also missing her Superhuman Physical Characteristics and aura of fear.
3. The resistance to Mind and Soul Manipulation the other Magic Gods have should probably go. This resistance was added because even the depowered Gremlin Magic Gods can interact with Chimera normally, but this is because Magic Gods in general are superior existences to humans and thus can bear her level of beauty, just like they can interact with the Forgotten God and its attacks normally despite its bizarre reduced existence. The side effects don't occur for them in the first place, so it shouldn't count as a resistance feat.
4. The "possibly" for type 4 Immortality all Magics Gods have should be removed. It's obvious the Magic Gods are immortal because of their divinity, as magic gods they are an existence superior to humans and other mortals that is normally considered impossible to kill, barring specialized techniques such as the AAA or by depowering them first.
Now I have two questions. First, shouldn't Othinus, and by extension the Magic Gods, have a Durability that matches their AP? I thought that we didn't assume characters are glass cannons unless explicitely demonstrated.
Second, what should we do with the 11-dimensional implications for Magic Gods? Because not only do infinitely weaker characters like esper teleporters or Carissa interact with the 11th dimension, the World the Magic Gods can warp or destroy is 11th dimensional and Othinus herself strongly implies magic gods have control over all dimensions in this quote when explaining how St. Germain is not a Magic God.
Vol 12 Chapter 2 Part 17
"Please wait!! He…he really did bend the entire world before my eyes! It was like…like this… It's hard to explain, but the walls, floor, and ceiling all turned into weapons, tunnels appeared in the people in the way, and they all attacked me at once!"
"Have you forgotten?" Othinus sounded almost utterly exasperated. "This is the Dianoid. The entire building is made of carbon materials. That means you don't need control over every phase, every dimension, and every element to manipulate everything around you. A magician with control over carbon and nothing else can pull that one off."
If we are not accepting this for whatever reason, shouldn't the discussion rule be changed to "Please avoid trying to upgrade To Aru characters to Tier 1-C or above" and not Tier 1-A?
