Summary
Perception Manipulation is the ability to manipulate one's very perception, allowing one to alter the sensory stimuli received by an opponent. The ability can also be used to amplify one's own perception to greater levels. In many ways, the ability is analogous to Mind Manipulation and both powers can overlap.
Possible Uses
- Vision Manipulation: The ability to manipulate the vision of a target, allowing them to see things that are exaggerations of reality, or simply unreal altogether. This is the most obvious and arguably powerful application of the power, as well as the most common. An example of this power would be to make the target believe they are doing something they're not.
- Hearing Manipulation: The ability to manipulate what the target hears, including voices, background noise, music, etc. Distinct from Sound Manipulation in that the user does not actually manipulate sound but rather the target's perception of already existing sound.
- Touch Manipulation: The ability to manipulate the what a target feels through touch as mechanical tension.
- Olfactory Manipulation: The ability to manipulate what a target smells.
- Taste Manipulation: The ability to manipulate what a target can taste, either from ingested material or without any ingested material.
- Proprioception Manipulation: The ability to manipulate the target's own comprehension of their body and its position within space.
- Balance Manipulation: The ability to manipulate the target's perception of gravity and acceleration, both properties necessary for balancing.
- Perception Amplification: The ability to amplify one's perception, allowing one to see, hear, smell, etc. better than normal humans.
Limitations
The most obvious limitation of the power is that the user may not be able to generate the stimuli, only alter the target's perception of already existing stimuli to achieve desirable results. Thus it is a purely immaterial ability that has limited impact on the target's actual body.
