Zerox[]
Zerox: A planet that was once inhabited by all mortals, Homosapiens, Homotetrians and Homoanimus, but eventually was destroyed after a superweapon was used in the Great Homotetrian Civil War, wiping out the Homotetrians and destroying Planet Zerox. Scholars still refer to it as a major world out of respect. It is larger than Earth by a considerable amount given that the inner portions of the walls that surround the Royal portions of the world are multi-continental in size with walls made of Earth by characters like Ayumi (who isn't weak) are still significantly smaller than the inner walls. It is bigger than Jupiter, Saturn and the Earth with the people on there being called Zeroxians who are demi-humans that can do things like control elements.

“You see, I was born to a lower-class female and my father was actually Lucifer who shapeshifted into him and shortly after that, me and my sibling was born. The school was a thing at this time, albeit it was barely there and because of my status as being born of a commoner and a devil caused me to be seen as an outcast by most who knew me. I never went to school due to my status as a result of discrimination at the behest of my mother. As a result, my father actually managed to regain his personality and will as Lucifer seemingly let him do so, thus teaching me everything he knew [as my father] for a number of years. Shortly after, having learnt everything I possibly could from my father, I went out into the world of the Zeroxian plane, as I noticed the School of the North Star, in its earlier formation, as one of the higher-ups came and introduced me to it. Little did I know that this higher-up was the only 'good' teacher of all of them - Tatsuryuunogouen. He had black hair with a purple and black shirt and a long, draping black cape with some form of a symbol on it." She explained calmly as Kento and the others looked shocked, as Anexla and Tatsuryuu remained happy. “Now I shall continue. I noticed he bore claws on his fingers and horns on his head as we both noticed a portal that resembled a star, appearing beside me to our shock as a woman with seemingly divine clothing popped out. That was the first time I met your mother. She seemed extremely calm as Tatsuryuu looked at her and then myself. It took some time before we were all properly acquainted with each other. You see, I partly wanted to become a teacher so I could spread the knowledge that I had gained from my father to others. Little did I know the truth would be far darker than I initially realised [at least at the time]. Tatsuryuu, upon hearing this and my seeming achievements of learning everything from my father, who I learned was from a high-ranking family of Zerox and a devil worshipper, [to my chagrin], allowed me to be inaugurated within the School of the North Star. Your mother became my best friend; my only friend aside from Tatsuryuu himself as just before this inauguration, I found that my house had burnt down. Lucifer had seemingly left my father's body, leaving him for dead, killing my mother as she had been sleeping. I was utterly shocked upon hearing this and broke down crying but your mother managed to help me by taking me to the Moon as both she and Tatsuryuu consoled me for a time [approximately a few hours]. After that, she showed me around and explained that meteors had utterly crushed the Moon at some point before that, hence why she came to Zerox. She teleported us back to Zerox, after those hours, now having slowly healed myself from my trauma. After that, I was inaugurated as a teacher formally with Tatsuryuu as my higher School Administrative Adviser, due to being a higher-up but I failed to recognise that he was demoted, but due to his immense power, he never became a teacher and had the priorities of being a higher-up, meaning he could do whatever he needed.” She continued to explained as Anexla remembered this and smiled peacefully upon hearing this. “Let’s just say that I… threatened the Higher ups and the King.” Tatsuryuu explained calmly as even Anexla herself chimed in. “There weren’t meteor showers back then, for me. My father allowed me to teleport away on the basis of living a new life with what I gained on the Moon. The servants allowed this.” Anexla explained as they all smiled upon hearing this. “It took me a few years to assimilate myself to the early environment of the School, yet I never had reason to befriend the teachers as I quickly realised they were as discriminatory as the Higher-ups except Tatsuryuu often did help me as a result. Shortly after, I had fully assimilated myself to the School environment, I had my first group of students who quickly left me after they were subtly being manipulated by the Higher ups, to my confusion and annoyance. A decade later, around this time, my brother bore his child, Ansen. A few months prior, I bore a child, Sokaran due to my unrealised devil genes and I didn't realise this, causing my son to bear blue ice-like hair as a baby, and because I had no husband, having never married [despite having some hidden feelings for Tatsuryuu], I tried to look after my child to the best of my abilities whilst noticing that he bore a very unique element that was extremely rare, at least according to Tatsuryuu. Sokaran bore black ice whilst Ansen [my niece] did not bear the snakes she possessed naturally, as after her death, I realised that she was bitten by a snake at a young age, that snake's eggs possessed themselves within her body, with that snake having the capacity to indefinitely spawn itself, hence her abilities. Around this time that Sokaran was born, you were born in what I believe was another part of Zerox known as the Dark Space as Anexla became pregnant but I never had the chance to meet your father as the Dark Space, was, from what was said, a space where life was barren and non-existent. But unfortunately during this time of your birth, red lightning hit, causing immense damage to the entire plane of Zerox and endlessly beyond, as I watched in horror as continents, cities, towns and villages were lit ablaze with their inhabitants inside as to my amazement, Tatsuryuu managed to stave off a majority of the Lightning with no seeming difficulty. 7 years passed as I tried to help rebuild the planet and my area with any ways possible only for one of the Higher ups, Mr Gakisar, to come and threaten me with redundancy if I dared try, due to my seeming higher status than the 'peasants'. By the 6th year, many children came into my class [the class of which you saw] who were commoners and 'peasants' who suffered during the attack by Lucifer 6 years prior and I gave everything I could to help them with their trauma but the Higher ups and corrupt teachers did what they did to my previous class and essentially put years of propaganda regarding status and outcasts to the children, putting them in a state they were when they saw you, and Tatsuryuu himself tried to get involved only to recognise he couldn't kill the students by destroying their mind and soul, and thus restarting it, leaving them in that state. By the 7th year, I posed as your School Administrator and took you into the school, as soon as possible, as I recognised you were being abused heavily in every way with a dead foster father as I could smell a dead body from within your kitchen. I felt horrible and made sure you were taken care of to the best of my ability. Upon you coming in to the school, I recognised that you would face near-constant discrimination due to your circumstances regarding your birth. The higher-ups targeted you with that in mind but I apologise for not being able to help you in that regard and through having you sitting next to Sokaran and Ansen behind you, with Ayumi having friends prior to her joining our class, allowing you guys to build a strong bond but I stopped Sokaran from potentially attacking you, but outside of my class-based jurisdiction, there was really nothing I could do. You see, having silently witnessed your birth from a long ways away thanks to Tatsuryuu, I made sure to visit your mother when everyone was gone from the school but it was fleeting for I was horrified upon seeing her shackled. She was imprisoned for 8 years up to that point in the lowest part of the School, and as such, it was simply too much upon learning of her death, having noticed Ayumi actually gaining eyes. After that, Tatsuryuu came to me with a proposal, as he came into the classroom, shackled your hands, called out your guys' names, and requested he take you guys out for training outside the School's area. I accepted, having requested this prior to this event occurring. You guys never appeared for years after, with only you and Ayumi rarely appearing, only in front of myself and myself alone. Upon realising that you guys were to fight the Dragons, I relented to Tatsuryuu to make sure you guys never were attacked or damaged but he made sure you guys did, to allow you to master your elements. I realised that Ayumi… and Ansen never returned alive, and upon taking it there, my brother had died out of grief as his wife ran out of their house and screamed at me in absolute hatred and rage, thinking I was the one that killed them. I barely managed to remain calm as she soon ran off to [who knows where], as I buried them alongside my parents. I soon walked off to the School, trying to keep up appearances, as I soon noticed 4 students having taken the place of all 4 of you guys as my students that you met still remained with me.” She explained to the two boys, as they looked amazed at hearing her truths. Upon their being in a near-death state or that of natural death… their eyes get removed from their body, so as to not allow any enemy of the Moon Clan, such as the Sun [for your time] to steal the eyes for their own benefit. I took out my eyes and gave them to Kento, knowing they’d be used for such a beautiful young princess in Lady Ayumi.” She explained as everyone looked shocked yet rather unsurprised, as she remembered when she took out her eyes. "Can I ask you a few questions?" Sokaran asked as she nodded pleasantly. "Go ahead." She said as she smiled. "Mum, why do you have white hair?" He asked as she remained calm. "You see, I was initially born with brown-black hair, but after meeting Anexla, due to my admiration of her as a person, I requested that my hair colour be changed to something similar or identical to hers, so she used a technique that could seemingly control reality to change it as both she and Tatsuryuu said that it suited me, and even after her death, the hair colour remained, and that despite being scorned by the other Higher ups for the colour change, I eventually accepted it for what it was. Furthering on from that, my son's hair was the way it was due to the ice that he bore, affecting him at birth as I also had blue eyes. I also continually wore glasses from a young age that allowed me to see different types of energy, excluding those which were beyond me in comprehension, such as [your Almighty Power], but he never wore them due to him possessing the black ice, that took the ineptitude of his sight that I had [effectively meaning that he didn't need to wear glasses due to having better sight than me as a result of his birth and his possessing devil genes, causing no ocular deterioration], but he was tone-deaf from a young age, hence his loud and overt nature. But self-admittedly, like myself, his cheeriness was a facade, holding sadness and hatred due to discrimination, which was caused thanks to my existence. But after seeing Kento, I felt like I saw my son in him, allowing me to finally be forgiven and thus forgive myself. But to me, Tatsuryuu was a good person, even if he did send a majority of students to the Dragons, as a part of his 'test', ultimately killing him.... but I have since forgiven him for such actions." Aosekarti explained as Tatsuryuu smiled upon hearing that completely as Kento looked visibly shocked, but forgave his teacher in spite of not realising the truth. “Mum, my final question is: what is your name?" Kento asked as she looked a little bit confused, but soon returned back to her kind stature as Anexla smiled upon hearing him use the word “Mum”.. "Oh... my surname is actually Aosekarti [as that is my mother's surname] with my father's surname being Lucifaser [hence being similar to Lucifer himself], which I never legally took upon my parents' insistence as that would have led to further discrimination but my first name [as you are of the mental age and because you are technically no longer my students, due to no longer being in my jurisdiction within the School], is really Koresanara, with Kasera being the name I use when talking to others, as it is easier for them to understand. Anexla and Tatsuryuu [as well as yourself] have no legal surname, according to Zeroxian records and as such we know you by your first name and that alone. But my father [your grandfather] despite being a member of one of, if not the highest military families, was a genuinely loving man without Lucifer's mind-numbing and psychopathic influence. Everyone, you see, the Hierarchy of Zerox is mostly monarchic and rather archaic in its ruling style, as the top of the 'Chain' is that of the King and his family [of whom you met when you were to be killed] who live in the capital of Zerox, the richest area of the entire plane, with those below them being the Nobles and Aristocrats [of which the Higher Ups all derive from, including Gakisar], the Military families [of which my father and your false mother, Romanova, derive from, albeit she comes from the same family he comes from, yet there is a distant relation between the two, thankfully], with the Old Man that you knew not being related to the Military families, instead being a commoner-noble hybrid, as he was a noble from birth but felt their way of living was archaic and left them, thus being disgraced and erased from all forms of their family lineage and when he had his daughter, she was never seen by any of the Higher Ups as worthy of their 'nobility' status. The King was seen as a divine entity, being chosen by higher entities, with the Higher Ups [and thus the Nobles and Aristocrats] being seen as those who had the ability to do whatever they wanted with the world due to their presupposed status; but below the Military families belie the Working class, who are seen to be mere labourers for those higher than them, as it was them who mostly built the early structures of Zerox, very much including the School, where they are seen to be treated mildly well by those below them and even those higher than them, but they weren't seen as much, and when they tried to rebel, the Military families used their powers to quash anything they dared to do, imprisoning a majority of them and only releasing them when they felt they were 'ready' to work properly, with loyalty to the true Higher Ups of the World, but for example, I, as a teacher belong to this class, yet I never followed their beliefs that the Higher Ups induce within their minds due to disgraceful propaganda. And below them are the Commoners, where I and my mother belonged due to both being born as such, where they are seen as slaves and hated by those above them, except the Working Class, where they are sympathised with; as not even the Military step where they are, due to being seen as animalistic and trash. Because of this, discrimination was rife, even from their own who ascended to higher statuses such as the Working Class [which, whilst rare could only be done through accomplishments such as building things or gaining knowledge that invoked loyalty to those considerably far above them], but forbidden knowledge was never gained by anyone from this class or even the Working class [excluding those with some connections to those higher than them], we were despised for even existing and the Commoners were seen as primitive who lived in villages where the community knew each other but the higher ups never saw us for what we were yet those who built things were never paid their due diligence, causing hatred and insurmountable resentment that could never be realised due to the nature of those above them. Ultimately, below them were the Peasants [of whom my students comprised] where they were even worse off than the Commoners; being poor and having nothing going well for them, due to the arrogant nature of those well, well above them. I never saw them as bad [even though I had access to 'forbidden' knowledge thanks to my father's hidden scrolls] due to my upbringing. After the Incident almost two decades ago, the hatred between the classes increased endlessly and after the Higher Ups took the school over after the Workers built it, everything for teachers that weren't related to the Higher Ups went utterly downhill and I could do nothing more about it, despite the access I had to knowledge that I didn't deserve to know, [according to the Higher Ups]. It was deplorable, to say the least as the Higher Ups were always corrupt due to their innate status and devil worship. Furthering on, I neglected to mention that the Nobles and Aristocrats live within the Capital as they lived within a Wall that was the size of a continent originally but was toned down by the Military as it surrounded the main royal family and thus the Nobles and Aristocrats lived near them in a large diamond formation with the Military living outside of their jurisdiction as a form of protection. The Working Class lived far outside the Wall but even then, the Commoners and 'Peasants' lived within the villages and outskirts of the Wall and thus the World, living on the edges of the continents and inevitably, the edges of the world. I lived on the outskirts of the Continent but somewhere near the Wall, as I lived outside of the School of the North Star [which was located near the Wall's outer shell]. The Wall's inner shell is what contains the Military's outposts and thus their family [where my father originated from], lived alongside the other three families in the aforementioned diamond formation. I never had access to it, until after the Higher Ups passed away, as I was granted the capacity to become Queen by one of the eldest servants of the King, who asked me to do so, due to my true lineage and I accepted, with the simple prospect that I could remain teaching as he [the servant known as Absaerna] had 'ruled' in my place by making a clone of me. After that, I still remain as a teacher, but because of everything I had learned from Tatsuryuu and Anexla and my father's scroll, I learned all of the other teachers had passed away due to the War, causing students that I had to revert their propagandist beliefs into reclusive and quiet persons, as for me, the higher ups and others like them passing away was a Miracle [as I found out, caused by your death]. And truthfully, that is everything about me [for I see you as a trustworthy one due to being my best and only friend's son].” She explained as she looked at Kento upon remaining kindly and loving. "You truly are a resemblance of your mother and father, but moreso your mother, for your hair is truly unique and beautiful." She said to him gently, as she caressed it peacefully. "I can see why Sokaran was your friend... but I could understand why Ansen took some time when warming up to you, for she was always cautious around you and Ayumi, thinking you both would discriminate her, but I could rather clearly sense that you and Ayumi had something for each other, even if your feelings were moreso hidden, much like hers, but I knew she truly loved you, and you [liked] her [albeit eventually]." She said calmly. "Thank you, Miss Aosekarti, for giving me the Mother I needed, even if it was very much temporary." Kento said as Tatsuryuu smiled, as they all walked away, except Sokaran and Anexla herself. “So, Sokaran, is it?” Anexla said as she smiled at him. “So you and my son were good friends?” She asked as his blue eyes stared in shock. “Well, I did bully Kento too, but very rarely as I only joined in with Ansen but I remember our first ever interaction: “So are you ready for today!?” He said cheerfully as I looked at him with no visible expression, as he smiled at me. “What do you mean? What is happening?” I asked Sokaran as he looked at me with a slightly confused expression. “You mean, you don’t know what lessons you have today? Are you serious?!” Sokaran said. I nodded as Ms Kasera noticed me. “Hey, Sokaran, why must you hang out with that devil of a kid?” Ansena said with a smirk on her face. Her rosy face complemented her statement as she said it. “Hey, Ansena, calm down.” Sokaran said as he turned around and defended me. “No, there’s no need to-” I said, trying to stop him from potentially causing a scene as he looked at me with sadness. “Kento, I am sorry but this has to be done.” Sokaran said as he placed his hand in the air, only for Ms Kasera to hold his hand down. “Remember what we said about treating new students kindly. Remember it well.” She said calmly with a look of sadness on her face as he sat down. “I’m sorry. I apologize, Kento.” He said to me as I remained calm, yet fearful of what he could do. He then continued to smile at me. “Sorry for that, Kento. Do you want to be friends?!” He said as he held his fist outwards, clenched with his knuckles pointed towards me as though he wanted to punch me. I looked confused. “Oh, have you never heard of a fistbump?” He said as his smile remained as I also fistbumped. “Okay, now we’re friends for life!” He said kindly as I smiled softly and nodded in assurance. Little did I know that that statement that he said would be in vain. 35 minutes passed by as Ms Kasera told us of the register and the other Class. “Kento!” Sokaran said as he was going to walk out. I then walked towards him, as fast as I could. “Kento, good luck…” Ms Kasera said as her words became faint, drowning out in the mass hysteria that was the words of the other students. “Our only real lesson is Physic-!” Sokaran said as someone charged into me, intentionally or otherwise as I stumbled back slightly. “Aaa!” I screamed as people began to laugh violently like a chorus. “Look, its the devil child!” “CAN’T YOU USE YOUR POWERS TO REMAIN STANDING?!” “COME ON!” They all shouted at me as Sokaran looked at me with sadness. “I feel absolute pity for you, Kento. Seriously.” But as I was going to slip on the floor, from the corner of my eye, I saw the most beautiful person I could ever lay my eyes upon. I saw you. A girl who was roughly my age. She had silky bluish-white hair, almost resembling a spider’s web. She also wore a beautiful purple dress with golden trimmings. Her dress ran to her knees as she walked silently. My eyes widened in absolute shock as I noticed that her eyelids were shut; almost as they were forced that way by some higher force. Her friends looked at me with a scowl on their faces, laughing as they walked off. I was never angry with them, but disappointed in myself for what just happened. (And that was from his perspective)’ Anyhow, I eventually became friends with him in the truest sense after the age of 9 as I slowly warmed up to him; and because Mom was our teacher, she allowed us to go to my house to have fun so we could be friends. We jumped around on my bed a lot but Mom got quite mad at us for what we did, so we apologised. But I explained that my cheeriness was a facade due to being born in such a low class, but with him, I felt like, for the first time, I had a true friend because with him, my cheeriness wasn’t a facade, it was genuine. I apologised for bullying him after my mother told me his story, as I asked him why he didn’t wear glasses but I realised that they would be damaged when he was bullied and if he did wear them, I would mess them up. Ultimately, after that, I felt… as though he was my brother. The brother I wanted so bad growing up.” Sokaran said as he felt rather emotional. “Well, I am glad to hear that; its good to see you two resolve your issues. But… why don’t you give him your jacket as a gift, since he’s your best friend and all.” Anexla said as he looked surprised, as he showed her his arms that were covered in ice. “But… doesn’t he have clothing like a jacket?” Sokaran asked as he looked down, as everything around them was being frozen. “Well… his clothing was given to him by me as a baby. It allows him to change its size or its appearance and… allows him to wear other things. He wears a vest that’s white but golden, yet if you give him your jacket… he will cherish it for the rest of time. He also has the same abilities as you, but its latent for him.” Anexla said as Sokaran looked happy and smiled fully upon hearing this, as he remembered him with one eye. “What happened to his eye?” He asked her as she put her fingers to her chin. “Well… on the Moon, everyone is born with the White Eye. The eye that Kento bears is called the Pure Eye, which is the evolved form of the White Eye. Because our eyes are our defining characteristic, for Kento, having one meant he’d have been excluded. He got his eye ripped out by his stepmother. It looks weird but he was born with those eyes, unlike everyone else. You could give him his eye.” Anexla said as Sokaran looked shocked. “Well… you have something inside of you called the Zamharir. I think its what you were born with.” Anexla said as she held his necklace as she smiled at him, upon observing it. “The Zamharir is the ice of Hell, where Lucifer resides. It would allow you to hypothetically unfreeze his eye, because what his stepmother did was use the fire of Hell to destroy it, which nullifies regeneration. Essentially, what it does is, it freezes everything it touches, destroying it. What you’d have to do… is simple. You’d have to touch Kento’s face or another body part, and let it spread up to his destroyed eye socket, but use it with the intent to heal. And because of Lucifer’s power, he should unconsciously heal as Hell… has two fires. One is Hellfire that nullifies regeneration, which is what she used. The second type… is the far more dangerous one, called The Fire. It destroys all things it touches… and I mean anything. But since Kento has the State of Brahman, he can withstand it.” Anexla explained as Sokaran looked at his hand. “You don’t have to do so, if you want to. But I know one thing… he would appreciate it.” She said to him kindly, as she walked away as he sat down on the logs, as the Soul Flame remained, as Aosekarti was teleported there instead. “Mom! Kento’s mother asked if I could restore Kento’s eye through this necklace and using something called the Zamharir.” He explained as Aosekarti looked at the ground, just like him. “You don’t need to. Its up to you.” She said as she looked at his necklace around his neck. “How did I get this?!” He asked as he smiled at her peacefully, upon hearing this.
“The walls that bar the Royals and Higher Ups have the durability of a country. The attack fired… destroyed that.” Kento said as Tatsuryuu smiled, realising the Higher Ups and Royals were destroyed for good. “This universe you call a universe… is infinite in length, width and depth for this is a mere fraction of the Omniverse. I know you are capable of withstanding universes with ease… so I shall unleash upon you Buddhalands worth of damage. The Buddhalands are infinitely beyond this universe for if you were to crush one Buddhaland, you would observe an atom that contains an infinite number of universes, fictional or otherwise. Even the one typing this is contained within a Buddhaland, some humans argue as these atoms contain said infinite universes that contain Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Mount Olympuses, etc, etc ad infinitum. The Buddha is a mere iota of My being for Nirvana that he attained is a mere false equivalence of Me. Ashoka understood the truth of the State of Brahman, but could not use its true power for he would die. In essence, the Buddhalands bear countless worlds that are in truth, universes with these being atoms and then containing the very concepts of time, space, infinity and eternity as merely words in comparison. Indra’s Net is similar as well. One is capable of containing an unspeakable amount of petals and within those contain an unspeakable amount of light rays and in each of them contain forms with those containing an unspeakable amount of untold moons and in each of them appear an untold amount of light beams, and within those are contained suns are manifested forms which contain an unspeakable amount of light rays that contain untold lion thrones, that contain untold ornaments which contain untold lights that then contain untold beautiful forms and then those forms contain pure lights themselves and in each of those lights contain subtle lights as those lights contain various lights that are unspeakably many and in each of these lights contain mountain-sized jewels that appear in each light which are unspeakably many with these mountainlike jewels containing untold lands and reducing one of these jewels or lands cause the forms of each atom to be unspeakable, untold and if all the lands are somehow atomised, each atom’s forms are unspeakably many and in these various forms of atoms produce an untold number of light as each light contain an unspeakable number of Buddhas, with the Buddhas infinitely going beyond all concepts, such as infinity, time or space, metaphysics as well as Buddhas’ state of beings is such that, they themselves are infinite, free from life, death and time since they are unborn from all creation, being beyond imagination as well as being beyond words or speech as they are free from duality where they don’t exist in any form of time since they see time as though it is an illusion, where their bodies are abstract whilst not being abstract as they can also appear in universes with no inherent source as they see all things existent or nonexistent as illusions since all buddhas have infinite forms and manifestations since nothing sentient can fathom the realm the Buddhas reside in as a Buddha’s state extends throughout all universes and things as their bodies must have infinite knowledge, power as they can create infinite Buddha-lands into existence (which is infinitely beyond any concept of relevance) with each Buddha-land including concepts like eternity or infinity as a Buddha is always in peak Human condition and wield strength that cannot be overcome or constrained by anyone as a Buddha is beyond nonduality seeing the duality and nonduality in all things even if such things are nondual as well as being beyond the Brahmin Shivaragra as a being who represents Transcendent Power as they are beyond beings who understands and perfectly comprehends all barriers, ignorance, mathematics, sciences like astronomy, physiognomy as these beings see such things as arbitrary phenomena which to a Buddha is mere illusion. In relation to the abilities of Buddhas’, they can smell everything including thoughts of gods and the literal past, present and future as well as speaking to all worlds at once in a voice heard by all and understood by all, as they can destroy all demons including all mental and physical elements, things they consider illusions or distractions like death or evil as well as the King of the Heaven who can control the creations of lower gods and then the highest heaven in the Realm of Desire (which is infinite) and beings ruled by conceptual or cognitive desires as a Buddha can control Heat, Cold, Dampness, Dryness and Wind on a conceptual level as a Buddha has telepathy, clairvoyance, clairaudience as well as being able to purify all realms which includes all beings since a Buddha can see the past, present and future instantly since a Bodhisattva can go beyond time and space since Buddhas can get rid of concepts and grant Nigh-Omniscience, enter dreams and then generate infinite light that penetrates into other worlds that can carry physical and non-physical things as they can hold lands or worlds beyond number or calculation in their hands, crush any amount of mass into dust and then transcend fatigue and then warp reality across a universe and billions of worlds and then shake a hundred million Buddha-lands and then have infinite speed, fitting all things (as in all alls from the past) onto a pore of their body, go anywhere at the speed of thought, travel to all Buddha-lands no matter how high or low the layer they may be in terms of infinity and see them all; and then control all life, birth, creation and actions capable of demonstrating any amount of power needed for the present task at the current moment.In addition, the Buddha scales above the King of the Tushita Heaven who created a throne for him using nothing but his own power, with this throne containing hundreds of trillions of wish-granting jewels and his realm was bearing hundreds of trillions of random things including literal infinities and realms that are also infinite, as a Buddha is superior to all beings who views and perspectives are below, including views and perspectives belonging to metaphysics as beings of the Form Realm are free of all afflictions, as a Buddha is beyond being who resides in a realm of non-conceptualisation and beyond beings who reside in an absolute realm where conceptualisation ends, as concepts are null and void with the Jade Emperor creating an infinite amount of bodies as gods who exist within the Sphere of Neither Perception nor Non-Perception who transcends all stages of reality, unreality, existence, nonexistence, infinity, or finitely and their previous stage of transcendence cannot begin to fathom the Buddha with the Buddha being boundlessly beyond beings of this Realm transcending the concept of infinity as the concepts of being beyond infinity and space as the concept of nothingness and the concept of transcending their previous state of transcendence a near-limitless number of times beyond that as Buddhas are infinitely beyond the Devas of the Thirty-Third Heaven who can shake planets, going through anything, travelling whilst sitting, walk on water, producing smoke, flames and water that can destroy Universes and can hear everything through all worlds, realms and dimensions, reading all minds and tell if a being is beyond measure, remembering infinity and can thus see all dualitiies and then shake a hundred thousand universes as they can then see hundreds of trillions of years into the future and past and then wield countless transformations and powers as beings below Buddhas can create beings whose number are at least hundreds of trillions of infinities as each of those beings being equal to the King of the Tushita Heaven who can easily create hundreds of trillions of infinities of things and then shake trillions of universes with their raw power as beings below those of a Buddha are free from concepts… with all of this being underneath the State of Brahman itself. Ultimately, in thy normal form as the True Honoured One, ye are more potent than every Buddha, (such as Mahavairochana). Thus… with thy released power, in thy final form, only then are ye more powerful than Maitreya (Ashoka). I alone, as the State, am underneath the Almighty Power.” Kento explained as Tatsuryuu truthfully looked shocked as he saw a dark blue sword, devoured in cosmic energy. “Now then… face what I said before. Buddhaland.” Kento said as Tatsuryuu looked visibly scared. “Wait… what about the others? Won’t they be affected?” He asked as Kento remained calm. “No… considering you can protect them with your power.” Kento said as Tatsuryuu looked surprised, but calmed himself down only to see the power of a Buddhaland devouring the entire area. “Barrier - Permanent Defence!” Tatsuryuu thought to himself as his Barrier surrounded the entire planet with ease, as he decided to release the Barrier on himself, tanking the full Buddhaland casually as everything was devoured in a blue light, as Tatsuryuu remained calm; still alive. “So… are we done?” Tatsuryuu said as he was damaged only a tiny bit as everyone else was still protected. “You can indeed protect yourself without the Barrier and thus adapt.” Kento calmly said as Tatsuryuu still looked unsurprised. “Furthermore… Tatsuryuu, while we could continue this battle… you are in essence the Dharmakaya as ye bear Buddhahood in its draconic state.” Kento calmly said.
“Anyhow… shall we begin the story?” Aosekarti asked as smoke enveloped the area as they all saw themselves in the Forest in Zerox. “Kento, it has been a while." She said gently as she still smiled calmly at him. “You see, I was born to a lower-class female and my father was actually Lucifer who shapeshifted into him and shortly after that, me and my sibling was born. The school was a thing at this time, albeit it was barely there and because of my status as being born of a commoner and a devil caused me to be seen as an outcast by most who knew me. I never went to school due to my status as a result of discrimination at the behest of my mother. As a result, my father actually managed to regain his personality and will as Lucifer seemingly let him do so, thus teaching me everything he knew [as my father] for a number of years. Shortly after, having learnt everything I possibly could from my father, I went out into the world of the Zeroxian plane, as I noticed the School of the North Star, in its earlier formation, as one of the higher-ups came and introduced me to it. Little did I know that this higher-up was the only 'good' teacher of all of them - Tatsuryuunogouen. He had black hair with a purple and black shirt and a long, draping black cape with some form of a symbol on it." She explained calmly as Kento and the others looked shocked, as Anexla and Tatsuryuu remained happy. “Now I shall continue. I noticed he bore claws on his fingers and horns on his head as we both noticed a portal that resembled a star, appearing beside me to our shock as a woman with seemingly divine clothing popped out. That was the first time I met your mother. She seemed extremely calm as Tatsuryuu looked at her and then myself. It took some time before we were all properly acquainted with each other. You see, I partly wanted to become a teacher so I could spread the knowledge that I had gained from my father to others. Little did I know the truth would be far darker than I initially realised [at least at the time]. Tatsuryuu, upon hearing this and my seeming achievements of learning everything from my father, who I learned was from a high-ranking family of Zerox and a devil worshipper, [to my chagrin], allowed me to be inaugurated within the School of the North Star. Your mother became my best friend; my only friend aside from Tatsuryuu himself as just before this inauguration, I found that my house had burnt down. Lucifer had seemingly left my father's body, leaving him for dead, killing my mother as she had been sleeping. I was utterly shocked upon hearing this and broke down crying but your mother managed to help me by taking me to the Moon as both she and Tatsuryuu consoled me for a time [approximately a few hours]. After that, she showed me around and explained that meteors had utterly crushed the Moon at some point before that, hence why she came to Zerox. She teleported us back to Zerox, after those hours, now having slowly healed myself from my trauma. After that, I was inaugurated as a teacher formally with Tatsuryuu as my higher School Administrative Adviser, due to being a higher-up but I failed to recognise that he was demoted, but due to his immense power, he never became a teacher and had the priorities of being a higher-up, meaning he could do whatever he needed.” She continued to explained as Anexla remembered this and smiled peacefully upon hearing this. “Let’s just say that I… threatened the Higher ups and the King.” Tatsuryuu explained calmly as even Anexla herself chimed in. “There weren’t meteor showers back then, for me. My father allowed me to teleport away on the basis of living a new life with what I gained on the Moon. The servants allowed this.” Anexla explained as they all smiled upon hearing this.
“Ready?!” Ayumi said to her, as she saw Ansen visibly afraid, only to calm down, nodding as an entire forest of snakes flooded the entire area in seconds only for arrows to appear out of nowhere. “Song of the King: Crosses of Destruction!” Ayumi then said, firing all of the arrows as she also summoned an earth wall, to attempt to wall her off from attempting to get her, only for Ansen’s snakes to fire venomous water at the wall as Ayumi looked visibly surprised; activating her eyes in response only for a snake to appear from behind and bite her in the neck, as she could not move. “First Release!!” She said as the poison still paralysed her, only for Ansen to see light particles surrounding her, as they were both bound. “The match is over. Neither wins.” Tatsuryuu said to her, releasing them both with a clap, as the earthen wall was destroyed instantly only for them to shake hands.

Kasera Aosekarti is a teacher and a major supporting character in the Story. The mother of Sokaran and aunt of Ansen, she played a major role in giving them a good future, with her meeting Kento 3 years later.

Notable Abilities/Techniques[]
Virgin Mary: Queen of Heaven: The Queen of Heaven (Latin: Regina Caeli) is a title given to the Virgin Mary. This is Aosekarti's true nature after becoming Queen of Zerox. Aosekarti is called the Queen of Virgins and Queen of Peace. She is also called the Lady of Heaven or Sayidat Alsamawia (سيدة السماء).

She gained complete control of Zerox as well as the entirety of the cosmos and attained practically unlimited power as a result of the crowning.
Void Manipulation: Her innate power over gravity and space by making small blue holes in space that suck things in similar to voids or small black holes, which means that she could have galaxy-level abilities due to controlling black holes and gravity. It is noted to be significantly weaker than her father, Lucifer's.
Tengoku no Me: Eyes of Heaven that allow her to see into the past, present and future.
יתזירה ורד קארין (Yetzirah' vared Kerin) - Her Miracle ability where she can do small things such as revive entire universes or alter all of reality with decisions. Aosekarti, unlike Anexla, can use this technique an unlimited amount of times where she cups her hands, causing a bright light to appear. She can use this to alter fate, memories, desires, time, space and even the fabric of reality permanently. This was used by Anexla originally to give her, her white hair.

This transformation is absolute.
Sokaran[]
Sokaran was the son of Kasera Aosekarti and the descendant of Satoshi who was born with black ice in his soul and the Zamharir within the necklace he had been given at the age of 4, with the latter eventually seeping into his soul. Despite undergoing extreme verbal abuse at the hands of those higher than his mother in the Zeroxian society with him eventually adapting himself by becoming cheery, although deep down, he was hopeless and pessimistic. That said, he would eventually be given mercy and sent into the School of the North Star where he met his cousin, Ansen, his future friend Ayumi and Kento who would later become his best friend. They would train together with him and Ansen subtly bullying Kento only to be screamed at. Afterwards, he was forced to live in the same house as Kento as he and Kento eventually bonded, freezing over his garden, although he would eventually be forgiven sometime after as they would all be forced to fight Rairyuunogouen. Despite this, he died after being speared in the stomach with Kento eventually inheriting his chill and lax personality.

Notable Ability[]
The Zamharir (زمهرير (ザムハリール), Zamuharīru; Arabic for Severest Cold, Japanese for Cold Hell) is ice directly found at the bottom of Jahannam which is so cold that winter is but a mere exhaling of the ice as well as the ice of the Moon. The ice is characterized as being unbearably cold, with blizzards, ice, and snow however human logic cannot be applied to the Zamharir or the Fire. According to a hadith, "Indeed in the fire is a Zamhareer! When people boil from the heat of the fire, they flee towards Zamhareer. When they enter it , the cracking of their bones can be heard [due to the severe cold]" with others saying that it is a house where people cannot withstand it and "that the people of the Fire would ask its guardian to take them to its fringes. So he would take them there and they would be struck by its severe cold and Zamhareer until they return to the fire and enter it due to the severity of the cold they encounter", with a person's flesh immediately falling off (although Sokaran can control its potency and intensity). A person, upon going into the Zamharir would be torn apart by its severe cold. The wind of the Zamhareer is so bitter that the cold of winter and climate change or nuclear winter is meaningless and not even the cold of space can even come close to the Zamhareer where it can freeze bones casually but he can still control the ice with extreme ease. It can also cause absolute fear in whoever hears or gets touched by it. Sokaran mostly uses the Zamharir through his breath, manifesting as small shards of ice on the tip; with part of his hair freezing over upon using it, turning a shade of light blue with this being the direct cause of his body turning ice cold.
- First Release is 20% or 20 times the power or 5 times the power, located on the left shoulder (the kanji for first being Shodai).
- Second Release is 40% or 40 times the power or 10 times the power or 100 times (5 x 20) the power, located on the right shoulder (with the kanji for second being Nidaime)
- Third Release is 60% to 70% or 60 times the power or 15 times or 4000 times (100 x 40) the power, located on the left knee (with the kanji for third being Sandaime).
- Fourth Release is 80% or 80 times the power or 20 times the power or 240000 times
(4000 x 60) the power, located on the right knee (with the kanji for fourth being Yondaime)
- Final Release releases 90% to 100% or 100 times the power (full power which is not 100 times in all cases, there are only 5 people who use it the most with its power transcending any form of numerical value at the highest end or 24 million times the power of the user (which is the other users) or a smaller number than that but bigger than 240,000 where its seal is located on the heart (with its kanji being Bankai which means Final Release).
Notable Attacks[]
“Hissatsu Hyōsō (Certain-Kill Ice Spears).” Sokaran said as Kento then saw his clothing being devoured by hundreds of cellular ice spears with there being 100 clones around him. “You’re not going to do anything?” Kento asked as they became three and then one with the original Sokaran punching him hard enough to shatter his face through and through. “Jisarenhyō (Earthen Consecutive Chains of Ice).” Sokaran then said as Kento was briefly taken aback. “By coating themselves with energy and dedicating all their energy to keeping themselves warm, they can avoid death; if they use their Prana or energy to perform a technique, they will start to rapidly freeze again. How ironic that you never sought to consider the possibility… that warmth is irrelevant to the Flames.” Kento said as he allowed himself to be attacked with the technique as he jumped back without any damage only to then fire a huge plume of dark flames at Sokaran who immediately shielded himself with what appeared to be a dome of some kind. “You are weak… you’re not fighting to kill at all, are you?” Sokaran asked as Kento remained quiet for he was right. “GIVE ME EVERYTHING YOU HAVE, YOU FUCKING COWARD! I HATED YOU BACK THEN! I HATE YOU NOW! YOU ALWAYS HOLD BACK BUT FOR WHAT!? MERCY?! POWER?! LOVE?! YOU ARE NOT AN ALL-POWERFUL BEING! YOU COULD NEVER BE ONE!” Sokaran said as he glared at Kento who stood there silently. “Me and you were never friends… I despise your mother… I wish I had someone like her instead of you. YOU AND ME ARE DEAD! LUCIFER WAS RIGHT… YOU ARE WORTHLESS! ITS TIME TO DIE, KENTO OF THE MOON! YOU FAUX HYBRID! I HATE YOU! Zamharir: Iced Shell!” Sokaran said as he placed his hands in a criss-cross formation. “You’re really going to seal me?” Kento asked as he felt himself slowly succumbing to the Seventh Gate’s effects with Sokaran laughing. “Once this activates… you’re finished. You’ll be sealed for good… like when we fought back then but unlike then… the State of Brahman won’t be saving your plot armour-bound arsehole. This time… Iced Shell is a technique that uses the spirit and the physical body of the user to freeze the target into a block of ice. It is virtually unmeltable as it is not made of typical ice. It converts the user's body into the form of ice, destroying their body in the process but because this is the Zamharir… the Ultimate Ice that transcends fiction… you won’t regenerate. Heaven won’t save you… the memories of those who remember you… will be gone. Master, your mom, dad, Romanova… Ayumi, Ansen, Lucifer and even… me. You lose everything and I gain everything.” Sokaran explained as Kento looked so shocked that he lacked any time to react… as he froze with Kento finally shattering for good… dying forever. “I despised society… the Zeroxian higher-ups always mocking me and my mom for nothing… and then you came along. Your silver-haired burnt-ass body and then we happened to become friends… if we never met, I would have never been burdened by your existence. My cheeriness was because of adaptation to the society at hand. A facade of the highest order. After we trained… had fun as brothers… you burdened yourself onto me but I still never liked you either way. My ice to your fire. Its good to see you dead though, Kento… burn with that damn wretched woman you call a mother… Anexla, no… Romanova. If only Ayumi was the one who joined my class instead of you… we would have had peace… me laughing at you in response to Ayumi kissing you was nothing more than disgust… a feint of a reaction. I despise you, Kento… you were never my best friend. You should have died when you were 6… no… when you were born. I liked having Ayumi around… she was proficient at the things she did, fast, useful unlike you… slow, useless and fucking boring as shit. You deserved all the suffering you got… from birth until death… salvation is gone for you… bro…” Sokaran said as he took off the band that he made for himself and Kento when they were 11 years old, stared at it only to crumple it and throw it away with no emotions left, simultaneously burning and freezing it out of existence. “You and I were never brothers… you should be lucky I ended your suffering. Someone like you should have been tortured for good. This is the real me… now burn where you belong, Kento…” He then said to Kento’s non-existent remains, staring with empty eyes as the black ice that corroded his soul and heart devoured parts of the Arena as he then teleported back to where everyone else was, showing Kento’s discarded remains to everyone else he cared for. “Who… is that?” Ayumi asked as Sokaran smiled. “No-one in particular…” Sokaran asked as Anexla looked at Sokaran with visible annoyance in her eyes. “Did you… kill…” She was about to say as memories of her and Kento in truth and in a different life came about in her mind, as she felt great pain. “...my son?!” She screamed at Sokaran, the son of her now-deceased best friend. “Yea… got a problem with that, moon-bitch?” Sokaran asked as Anexla could barely hold her anger in, remembering when Sokaran cried in her arms. “What did he do to you?” Anexla asked, glaring at Lucifer as Sokaran smiled. “He did nothing. This is the real me… woman of uselessness, carrying a son like Kento… he deserved it. He’s dead…” Sokaran said as Anexla knew this was not the Sokaran that she knew. “This isn’t you.” She said to him, attempting to be gentle with him only for him to smile. “You didn’t protect my mom at all, did you?! YOU’RE USELESS! YOU COULDN’T DO JACK! YOU SHOULD HAVE DIED INSTEAD! NOT MY MOM! BUT NOW I’M AT MY PEAK! ANYTHING I WANT CAN BE DONE!- Even unthawing your soulless and frozen being? Can that be done too?” Anexla asked as Sokaran glared at her, as she decided to immediately use the Miracle only to be flash-frozen conceptually; her body now frozen forever in stasis. “One down… a few too many to go.” Sokaran coldly said to himself as Ayumi glared at him with shock and horror with even Beelzebub teleporting away only for his portal to be conceptually frozen. “What are you?!” Ayumi asked with absolute rage as Sentaru remained quiet, only for him to be frozen in the 7th Gate of the Zamharir as Ayumi was stunned. “I’m your friend… I liked you far more than Kento… or his mom.” Sokaran explained as Ayumi was enraged without a doubt, immediately activating Final Release to fully manifest Keter. “You really think you can beat me with that ability?” Sokaran asked mockingly as Aphrodia looked at him only for her to be flash-frozen as Ayumi looked in horror. “MOTHER!! MOTHER!!” She screamed as Tatsuryuu glared at Sokaran in disgust. “Give me everything you have, lover of the bastard that is Kento.” Sokaran said as Ayumi then immediately went into her Transformation and blitzed Sokaran. “Runic Arrows of the Hymn Church!” Ayumi then said, firing trillions of arrows only for Sokaran to freeze them with a singular breath. “Useless.” He then said as she appeared under him, using the Fist of the Celestials on him only for him to then use Certain-Kill Ice Spears and attempt to bisect her. “Raido 65: Six Star Seal-!” Ayumi tried to say only for her mouth and breath to freeze over. “My mind… thoughts, bones and words… they’re fr-!” Ayumi thought to herself only for nothing to work as she felt her very heart being frozen from the insides; her flesh being mercilessly frozen as Sokaran then smiled. “Nothing will work… no Ryudo, Raido… nothing. Die.” Sokaran said and as she was frozen solid… he heard a clapping noise… behind him Tatsuryuu glared at him. “Black Flash of the King!” Tatsuryuu said as black energy surrounded his hand. “Didn’t you tell us that its never good to scream your attack name like that, huh… Master?!” Sokaran said as he grabbed Tatsuryuu’s hand and immediately froze his hand, only for Tatsuryuu to then shatter his own hand. “Viracocha.” Tatsuryuu said as Sokaran was barely affected. “Rasen Tenchi Kagi.” Tatsuryuu then said as he fired a huge purple orb at Sokaran who looked at it in slight amazement, freezing it solid with one attack. “You truly think you can beat me, Master?!” Tatsuryuu said as he smiled, immediately activating his Barrier only for that to be frozen as well with him continually adapting despite this. “DIE! MASTER!” Sokaran said as he then intended to freeze Tatsuryuu fully. “Your problem was that you never trained in anything but ice… you are useless even if you can infinitely evolve forever. You will never be able to transcend skill and mastery.” Tatsuryuu said to Sokaran as he knew that he could perhaps surpass everyone around him except Michael, Gabriel, Anhaben and Ashoka through the Seventh Gate granting constant evolution… (as this was a part of the Severest Cold’s ability) with Tatsuryuu then immediately activating Tenchi Kaijin with Soul Flame: Purgatory as Sokaran then immediately activated Zubanukeru Tegiwayokuyasumu (ずば抜ける 休む休む, To Tower Above the Rest by Skillfully Resting), summoning a huge sword of ice. “The Zettaishinkū (絶対真空, Absolute Vacuum) is the first step of this technique as th e downward force of the sword creates a powerful absolute vacuum within the immediate vicinity. The vacuum itself lasts for only for a fraction of a second but it is powerful enough to cause the opponent to black-out due to the lack of oxygen and effectively ruptures their eardrums. Other side effects of this vacuum include their veins distending, causing a rapid drop in blood pressure and oxygen will be moving from the cells to the blood and out of their lungs and mouth. Even though this vacuum happens in an instant, this can create obstructions in blood vessels of the heart, lungs, and brain, which could kill someone rather quickly if the accumulation occurs in the right place and with the appropriate intensity. This vacuum affects an area that is approximately 60 metres in diameter. Not only does it create an area of emptiness, everything within this radius is instantly drawn in.
The Toumetsu no Shokchoukaku (討滅の触聴覚, Annihilating Hearing and Physical Sensations) is the next effect of this technique which causes of massive sonic boom that happens simultaneously. As mentioned before, this effect works as a powerful Shinra Tensei-esque function with the added addition of the Hyōton nature. This repulsion is capable of deflecting any opposition regardless of its size, mass or velocity and it has the same range as the Zettaishinkū. It also adds a powerful flash freezing effect which can destroy the somatosensory system. This can cause the opponent to suffer from the effects of a loss of motor control, unable to feel any external forces and a complete inversion of equilibrium.” Tatsuryuu thought to himself as he healed his second arm and then decided to counter this by activating one of Ryujin’s techniques. “So nothing on a multiversal scale or higher would work… Kaido 89 - Apara: Huǒ zhì zhě zhī yàn (West - Fire of the Sage of the World)!” He then said, pointing his sword west as the every single Moon Clan member barring Anhaben, Ahsedar, Xerxes and Kento lost the ability to use cosmic energy as the entire universe turned off permanently only for Ahsedar to snap her fingers, allowing the act to reverse itself as he then used Kaido 89 in the form of an ember from the tip of his sword, immediately teleporting it to Sokaran’s face who looked horrified, as it blew up in his face and was also combined with Soul Flame: Purgatory only for Sokaran to laugh coldly, holding a flash-frozen ember in hand. “Its time for this to end… Master.” Sokaran then said, as he blitzed Tatsuryuu and hit him in the back, flash-freezing on the meta-conceptual level an infinite amount of times as he then mysteriously used Iced Shell to freeze everyone else as everything… even Lucifer, Michael and all the rest turned into an illusion. “You truly do hate me… Sokaran… now then… face your fate…” Kento coldly said as he was glaring in rage as he had survived the encounter with Sokaran. “I Hate you.” Sokaran said to Kento who was nonchalant and calm, as though he didn’t care anymore only for Sokaran to see a huge mass of black flames devouring him only for him to then try and counter it with anything. “Too slow.” Kento said as he immediately began to target Sokaran’s arms without any remorse who immediately used Keiyōnonai Tanrei Kangetsu - Hokkyoku Jisatsu: Tsumetai kokoro: Towa tōdo gijutsu - Isudo Sheru Finaru Roku (Indescribable Elegance Wintry Moon - Arctic Suicide Coldheart: Forever Frozen Soil Layer Technique - Iced Shell Final Rock) to try and stop the infinite flames from devouring him only for Kento to nullify the power with his breath. “Even something that can end the universe is meaningless… the Fire is absolute.” Kento said as he immediately slashed at Sokaran, summoning a hand of black flames with Sokaran continuing and failing to counter every move. “Hamim!” Kento then said as Sokaran’s throat, brain and intestines boiled as he passively used the Zamharir to regenerate with Kento then grabbing him with the Fire, deciding to end this conflict as he dipped Sokaran’s face in the Fire as he screamed in extreme pain. One amongst the denizens of Hell who had led a life of ease and plenty amongst the people of the world would be made to dip in Fire only once on the Day of Resurrection and then it would be said to him: “O, son of Adam, did you find any comfort, did you happen to get any material blessing? Kento asked as Sokaran only spoke “I have faced naught but hardship”. “You’ve only matured in terms of body… you and I both know you can’t use the Zamharir in any way, can you?” Kento asked as Sokaran looked visibly annoyed, and summoned chains of ice to fully bind Kento. “You really leave me no choice, brat.” Kento said as he teleported behind Sokaran and then summoned chains that immediately bound him from his neck to his feet, causing his hair to become messy. “Come on man… tell me you’re the same Sokaran that I knew… not this… Luciferian amped version. I really… don’t want to have to hurt you.” Kento said as he stretched his hand outwards as though to help up Sokaran, wanting to be his friend as Sokaran laughed, immediately attempting to freeze the chains with the Seventh Gate. “This is your Punishment… But if you insist.” Kento then said as he witnessed the Sokaran in front of him turn into a block of ice. “Jahannam - Release the Beast from within.” Kento then said as he decided to let the Gravedigger take over, as this was the oldest known form of himself, giving himself all of his knowledge, etc as Sokaran only saw darkness with a huge beast glaring at him as fear struck his heart. “It is a roaring raging beast that is held down by 70 000 chains, holding each chain is 70 000 angels” It is a place of heat, it is a place of pain. People will drink from a river that is made from the pus that flows out from the wound of the people of the Hellfire. The wounds of the people of the Hellfire will ooze pus, and this pus will gather together to form a river. And this is all they have to drink. And their food will be the tree of Zaqoom. A tree; the fruits of which are like the heads of the devils, and this fruit is so bitter that if the people when they try to eat it, they can't eat it but they will force themselves because there is nothing else to eat in the Hellfire. A place where the people will neither live nor will they die. A place where the people will fall into despair, arguing to each other, admonishing each other, criticising each other. The fire will surround them in every place. The smallest punishment of the Hellfire is that a person will wear a pair of sandals of fire and their brain will boil, that's the smallest punishment. And they would think that they have the worst punishment. But it is the least punishment in the Hellfire. They have been given clothing made of some type of fire. They have been given clouds that look like clouds of rain, but when they rain, they rain acid. When they've given food, when they eat it they choke, and Allah says in the Quran, their intestines disintegrate. They drink certain fluids, that when they bring their faces close to the dish, the skins of their faces begin to burn and it melts into the bowl. They begin to scream. A disturbing, terrifying sound.” The Fire said as Sokaran felt himself dying with true fear as Sokaran was then given a mere taste of the Fire’s punishment. “Surely, the disbelievers will be in the torment of Hell to abide therein forever. (The torment) will not be lightened for them, and they will be plunged into destruction with deep regrets. “If one drop from Az-Zaqqum were to land on this world, the people of earth and all their means of sustenance would be destroyed. So how must it be for the one who must eat it?” The fruit of the tree will boil their insides, resulting in one’s guts to defecate from their mouths, but they have no choice but to eat it, because they feel like they are dying from starvation – although they will never be able to truly die in Jahannam. The people of Hell will be made massive to the point where their molar teeth will be the size of Mount Uhud, and their chairs will be the size of the distance between Makkah and Madinah, which is around 500 km. The bigger the body, the more surface area there is to torment, resulting in more suffering. “Indeed, those who disbelieve in Our verses – We will drive them into a Fire. Every time their skins are roasted through, we will replace them with other skins so they may taste the punishment.” The Fire said as Sokaran’s hair turned white upon learning this as the Fire glared at him, burning his very existence only for the Fire itself to sustain him. “The Zamharir is the severest Cold… bitter… excruciating…” It said as Sokaran was immediately silenced into death, only to constantly regenerate as his mind was now gone with Kento having disappeared from all levels of sight. “Language cannot describe the Fire or Zamharir… logic can’t… nothing can.” Kento’s voice spoke as Sokaran’s arm’s memory, purpose, concept, understanding, narration, etc was severed as he also bore witness to all of Creation including reality being destroyed by the Fire as Sokaran’s soul could not handle it only for him to be sliced down the middle by the raw intensity of the Flames as Sokaran’s skeleton could be seen… causing him to miraculously regenerate as his brain was fully released from existence with a singular blast of the Fire with Kento then releasing the darkness of the Fire, taking Sokaran and teleporting him back to where everyone else was. “He died?!” Lucifer asked as Kento snapped his fingers as Lucifer glared at him in rage. “Very well then… now that everyone is dead… let the final fight begin!” Lucifer then said as Michael then immediately attacked him without doubt only for Lucifer to then bind him with the Angelic Art: Light of Damnation only for Michael to shut that down as Gabriel then immediately bound him as Ryujin, Rairyuunogouen, Iwaaryunogouen and Tatsuryuunogouen alongside Mizuryuunogouen attacked him as Lucifer laughed.
Ansen[]
Ansen was the niece of Kasera Aosekarti who was raised by her brother (Ansen's father) and an abusive stepmother. At the age of 4, she went on a fishing trip only to discover a dragon egg which absorbed itself inside of her. Despite undergoing extreme abuse, she would eventually be given mercy and sent into the School of the North Star where she met her cousin, Sokaran, her future friend Ayumi and Kento. They would train together with her and Sokaran subtly bullying Kento only to be screamed at. Afterwards, she was forced to live in the same house as Kento; eventually being forgiven sometime after as they would all be forced to fight Rairyuunogouen with her eventually dying at the dragon's hands. She would eventually be revived by Tatsuryuu, allowing her to be forgiven by Kento for her bullying towards him with this eventually resulting in her meeting Ananta Shesha, the King of the Nagas, evolving her into becoming the Queen of the Nagas.

Unleashing Black Flash requires incredible concentration Regardless of how you got it right the first time, whether it was skill, or simply luck, causes one to control their energy as naturally as breathing, transcending all phenomenon… as it becomes something as simple and natural as breathing. It can result in a feeling of omnipotence wherein nigh-omnipotents can be punched out of existence… as if everything revolves around you. This leads to a greatly increased performance in combat, allowing the user to operate at 5000% of their maximum potential… using the entire energy of the Universe to make it manifest for she can only do it when she is near-death or when she has lost all of her snakes"; her Black Flash uses Yin Art which nullifies all powers upon contact on the spiritual, conceptual, physical and mental levels) and

That’s Ansen’s snake!” Sokaran screamed out. “Vasuki is immortal, thou seest. He cannot truly die. But he is still weaker than Ananta Shesha.” Ryujin calmly said as Tatsuryuu felt death come unto him as Ryujin also did but barely let it affect him, only for all of the Poison to be absorbed into Ansen passively, granting her complete immortality and annihilation of all things." Ryujin then explained)Fate Manipulation, Paralysis Inducement and Poison Manipulation as well as Existence Erasure (She survives being erased from existence three times, specifically surviving Jacob's Ladder which is the highest form of existence erasure, erasing her on the conceptual, spiritual, mental, physical and transcendental level with this only bisecting her).

Go and engage yourself as the charioteer of Ṛtuparṇa, King of Ayodhyā. You will teach him Aśvahṛdaya mantra. In return for it he will teach you Akṣahṛdaya mantra.

Shapeshifting, immunity to Death Manipulation, Life Manipulation (Āḍi replied that he sought immortality, to which Brahmā made clear that all living beings must eventually die. Āḍi clarified his request, stating that he would only die when he had changed form. Brahmā took advantage of this ambiguity and granted him the power of transformation) and Omniscience (Brahma granted him another boon that he can learn warfare under Shiva.)
Power Nullification (by half) and Invulnerability (Via this. Son of Shiva who is featured in the Lalita Mahatmaya of the Brahmanda Purana, who drove all the gods out of Heaven and became the lord of the multiverse.His boon was the ability to take half of a person's strength and masculinity and add it to himself)
Fire Manipulation, Paralysis Inducement, Status Effect Inducement and Death Manipulation (In Hinduism, Bhasmasura (Sanskrit: भस्मासुर, Bhasmāsura) is an asura or demon, who was granted the power to burn up and immediately turn into ashes (bhasma) anyone whose head he touched with his hand. Bhasmasura sought the power to burn to ashes anybody on whose head he placed his hand. Shiva granted this to him.

BFR, Omniscience, Chaos Manipulation, Fear Manipulation, Power Mimicry, Power Absorption, Power Bestowal, Power Modification, Power Nullification and Omni-Protection (After many years, Brahma appeared to grant him a boon of his choice. Departing from his ancestors' conventional wish for immortality, Durgama wished to be the sole owner of the texts and the knowledge of the Vedas. After gaining this ownership, he locked them in Patala, the netherworld, making them inaccessible to priests and sages on earth, who needed them to perform yajnas. This led to the extinction of this practice, which in turn led to the devas losing their power. The worlds descended into famine and thirst. Durgama seized the opportunity to usurp the throne of Svarga from Indra, enslaving all the devas. Since Durgama's father had received a boon of protection for his entire family, the Trimurti were unable to intercede in this conflict.)
Fear Manipulation, Power Nullification and Invulnerability (Vishnu then thought of a ruse to get Gayasura put an end to his penance by offering him a boon in exchange for halting his tapasya. He, alongside other the other gods, appeared before Gayasura and asked what boon he desired. The asura demanded immortality and asked that he may only be killed by the Trimurti (the triad of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva))
Spatial Manipulation (Ability to move in all directions at once)

Invulnerability as well as Regeneration (High-Godly) and Immortality (Type 5 and 8/9 in battle.

Illusion Manipulation, Invulnerability, Statistics Amplification, Status Effect Inducement, Statistics Reduction (Mahishasura had gained the boon that no man could kill him. In the battles between the devas and the demons (asuras), the devas, led by Indra, were defeated by Mahishasura. Subjected to defeat, the devas assembled in the mountains where their combined divine energies coalesced into the goddess Durga; Srimad Devi Bhagavatam Book 5 Chapter 6: “O Grand Sire! Grant, then, that no Deva, Dānava, nor human being of the male sex can cause my death. There is none among women who can cause my death. Therefore, O Lotus-eyed! Let woman be the cause of my death; how can women slay me! The are too weak to kill me!” Brahmā said:-- “O Lord of the Dānavas! Your death will certainly occur, at any time, through a woman; O Highly Fortunate One! No man will be able to cause your death.”), Shapeshifting (In Markandeya Purana Chapter 80: His innate ability. "She flung her noose and bound the great asura in this. When he was bound in this way in that great battle, he abandoned his form of a buffalo and instantly assumed the form of a lion. When Ambika severed its head, he was seen to be in the form of a man, holding a sword in his hand. When the goddess quickly cut down the man who was wielding a sword and a shield, he assumed the form of a gigantic elephant. The elephant dragged the large lion with its trunk and roared. When it was dragging in this way, the goddess used her sword to slice off the trunk. At this, the giant asura again assumed the form of a buffalo and agitated the three worlds, with all the mobile and immobile objects") and every power of Indra.
Omnipotence and Immortality (Type 3, 4 and 5 - His mother, the earth, sought the boon from Vishnu that her son should have a long life, and that he should be all-powerful. Vishnu granted these boons) as well as presumed Time Manipulation (Narakasura used several divine weapons against Krishna, but the latter easily countered all those weapons. Narakasura employed the Brahmastra against Krishna, but Krishna neutralised it with his own Brahmastra. Narakasura used the Agneyastra against Krishna, but Krishna nullified it with the Varunastra. Narakasura hurled the Nagapasha against Krishna, but Krishna negated it with the Garudastra. In desperation, Narakasura launched the Vaishnavastra on Krishna, but Krishna met it with another Vaishnavastra. At last, when Narakasura tried to kill Krishna with a trident, Krishna pretended to swoon, because of a boon that Narakasura could be killed only by the one who gave birth to him)
Blood Manipulation and Duplication (According to Devi Bhagavata Purana, Book 5, he could control his blood once he was damaged. Upon the blood drops going onto a surface or even onto himself, he could summon clones from his blood. According to Chapter 29 of the same Purana, his clones had the same equipment, form and strength as him, even one blood drop. according to the Purana, could either summon an endless number of clones or many thousands depending on the translation.)
Immortality (Type 1 and possibly 5 - The Kanda Puranam, the Tamil iteration of the Skanda Purana, describes the legend of Surapadma. He is said to have engaged in intense austerities to propitiate the deity Shiva, who appeared to grant the asura a boon. He asked for the boon of living for 108 yugas (1 yuga lasts 12,000 years meaning 108 of them would mean he lives for 1,296,000 years overall), and reign over the 1008 worlds. He marries Padmakomalai, with whom he sired several sons, the eldest of whom is Banukopan)
Reality Warping, Earth Manipulation, Sky Manipulation, Space-Time Manipulation, Power Nullification, Regeneration (Low-Godly at least) and Immortality (Type 9) as well as Conceptual Manipulation (A trio of brothers who were granted by boons by Brahma to have three forts: gold, silver, and iron, which angered the Devas. In their forts. The Asuras had three citadels; the lowest was of iron, then there was one of silver, then one of gold. The gods could not conquer them; they sought to conquer them by siege; therefore they say--both those who know thus and those who do not--'By siege they conquer great citadels.' They made ready an arrow, Agni as the point, Soma as the socket, Visnu as the shaft. They said, 'Who shall shoot it?' 'Rudra', they said, 'Rudra is fierce, let him shoot it.' He said, 'Let me choose a boon; let me be overlord of Pashus.' Therefore is Rudra overlord of Pashus. Rudra let it go; it cleft the Citadels and drove the Asuras away from these worlds. The three brothers began to perform tapasya. For a hundred years they meditated standing only on one leg. For a thousand more years they lived on air and meditated. They stood on their heads and meditated in this posture for yet another thousand years. Brahma was pleased with this difficult tapasya. He appeared before them and said, "What boon do you want?" "Make us immortal", answered Tarakasura's sons. "I can’t make you immortal", replied Brahma. "I don’t have the power. Ask for something else instead". "Very well", then, said Tarakaksha, Vidyunmāli and Kamalaksha. "Grant us the following: Let three forts be made. The first will be of gold, the second of silver and the third of iron. We will live in these forts for a thousand years. These forts built in different worlds shall align once in every 1000 years. This combined fort will be called Tripura. And if anyone can then destroy Tripura with only a single arrow that shall be the death destined for us". They were great cities of prosperity, power and dominance over the world, but due to their impious nature. This rather unusual boon Brahma granted. There was a Danava named Maya who was very good at building work. Brahma asked him to build the forts. The golden fort was built in heaven, the silver one in the sky and the iron one on earth. Tarakaksha got the golden fort, Kamalaksha the silver one and Vidyunmali the iron one. Each of the forts was as big as a city and had many palaces and vimanas inside. The asuras populated the three forts and began to flourish. The gods did not like this at all. They first went to Brahma, but Brahma said he could not help them. After all, the asuras had got Tripura thanks to his boon and these were impregnable fortresses. Tripasura is a trio of asura brothers named Tarakaksha, Vidyunmāli and Kamalaksha, who, by Brahma, were granted the boon of having three forts: gold, silver and iron which angered the devas, forcing Vishnu to essentially create atheism, as the three brothers stood on one leg for a hundred years, lived on air and meditated for the next thousand years and then stood on their heads where Brahma “does not have the power” to grant immortality as they are given the boons of the three forts as they align throughout the universe every 1000 years with the fort being known as Tripura with only a single arrow that can destroy the three granting instant death where the golden fort was built in heaven, the silver one in the sky and the iron sky on the earth where their boon of three forts granted complete control of creation only after 1000 years where it required the creation of atheism to stop them as the three, at their full strength, transcend the concept of good and evil - they should beat Jvasasura due to the Pashupatastra containing the literal essence of both Vishnu and Agni.)
Reality Warping, Power Bestowal, Power Nullification and Power Modification (In the Shatapatha Brahmana, Indra lost his regal aura to Virochana, and had to flee Amaravati. Seeking to obtain his aura once more, he assumed the form of a poor priest and joined the service of the asura king. He learnt that Virochana had earned the favour of Shri due to his virtue. Pleased with Indra's service, Virochana offered his servant a boon of his choice, and the latter asked for Virochana's virtue. Without guile, Virochana granted him what he asked, and hence lost the favour of the goddess, whereas Indra was able to once again assume his throne. An Asura sage who had knowledge on the cosmos and virtually all things within. Bestowed his servant with a boon of his virtue as a result of his actions towards Indra.) and Immortality (Type 2/8 - In the Ganesha Purana, he was given a crown by Surya where he would only die if it was removed. He can survive any injury with his crown on and can only die if the crown is removed, which was later done by Vishnu in the form of a damsel in the Ganesha Purana)
Invulnerability and Sleep Manipulation (Ravana and Meghanada decided to kill Indra. At this juncture, Brahma intervened and asked Meghanada to free Indra. Meghanada obliged and was granted a chance to ask for a boon from Brahma. Meghanada asked for immortality, but Brahma remarked that absolute immortality is against the law of the nature. Instead, he was then granted another boon that after the completion of the Yagna (fire-worship) of his native goddess Prathyangira or the "Nikumbhila yagna" would be completed, he will get a celestial chariot, mounting on which, any enemy can't kill him in a war and become invulnerable. Brahma was highly impressed by Meghanada's valor in this war and it was Brahma who coined him the name Indrajita ("the conqueror of Indra"). It is also believed that Meghanada was granted another boon by Brahma in which it was promised to him that he would only be killed by a common man who hadn't slept for 12 years continuously), Absolute Illusion (Meghanada was also an expert in magical warfare, sorcery and tantra. Meghanada was the greatest warrior on Ravana's side. He was a great archer and unsurpassed grand master in illusion warfare techniques), Animal Manipulation (Nagaastra, a trap of a million venomous snakes), Invisibility (When I enter into combat, making myself invisible, even Indra the lord of celestials is not able to see or approach me. How much less, you two!; When he invokes the maya all of his arrows and divyastras like serpent noose and Brahmastra will become infallible and invincible. Meghnath with illusions is the strongest warrior in all of epics. He would effortlessly defeat all the characters from Ramayana and Mahabharata together), Darkness Manipulation and nullifier of Omniscience (Your son has performed seven extremely pervasive sacrifices—agnishtoma, ashvamedha sacrifice, bahusuvarnaka, rajasuya sacrifice, gomedha, and vaishnava. He has now engaged in maheshvara sacrifice, something that any man finds extremely difficult to undertake. After this, your son has obtained a boon from Pashupati himself. He has obtained a divine chariot that can travel in the firmament at will. He has obtained the maya named tamasi. Through this, one can create darkness. O lord of the rakshasas! If one fights with the use of this maya, not even the gods or the asuras are capable of knowing how to fight against such a person in a battle), Sound Manipulation (The handsome one enveloped the directions with a dark mist and rendered them invisible. The slap of his bowstring against his palm could not be heard. There was no sound from the axle of his chariot or the hooves of his horses. His movement could not be heard and his form could not be seen. Through that dark and dense cloud, there was the extraordinary downpour of his arrows.) as well as Death Manipulation and nullification of all forms of Immortality/Godhood (By the Vasavi Shakti, a dart of anti-mortality that can kill any being who is immortal or invincible which can only be used once. When Indrajita discovered that both Rama and Lakshmana had been rescued by Garuda and were still alive, he was livid and vowed to kill at least one of the brothers on that day. When the battle started, he used all his force to cast a havoc on the armies of Sugriva. At this Lakshmana appeared before him and fought him fiercely. Indrajita used his supreme magical powers, darting across the clouds and skies like a bolt of lightning. He combined his skills of sorcery and illusion warfare, repeatedly vanishing and reappearing behind Lakshmana's back. He was invisible but his arrows injured Lakshmana. Indrajita used the Vasavi Sakthi against Lakshmana, and upon being impaled Lakshmana fell unconscious, poised to die precisely at the following sunrise)
Invulnerability (Shiva Purana : Chapter 17 of Rudra Samhita: There was once an Asura born of the vast sheet of water (ocean). He was known by the name Jalandhara. He resembled the god of death. It was by penance that he acquired his exploits. All Devas including Gandharvas, Yaksas, Nagas and Raksasas, and even the unborn lord Brahma were defeated by him in battle. After conquering Devas and Brahma, Jalandhara went to the lord of the chiefs of Devas, Visnu, the destroyer of the universe, and the preceptor. A battle ensued between them without respite for a whole night and day. Lord Visnu was defeated by him.), Empathic Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation, Power Nullification, Power Bestowal, Healing, BFR, Regeneration and Immortality (Type 9 - Jalandhara became the lord of the three worlds (heaven, earth, and the underworld).

Upon seeing Shiva and his avatars dominate the battlefield, Jalandhara created an illusion. This distracted his army, but not himself. Meanwhile, Jalandhara disguised himself as Shiva and went to Parvati in order to trick her) and Superhuman Physical Characteristics (He can throw mountains)
Invulnerability, Statistics Amplification, Statistics Reduction (of enemies) and Power Nullification (In the Vana Parva, the kalakeyas, allied with the nivatakavachas, waged war on the devas, attacking Devaloka. They were able to inflict a defeat on their enemies. In retaliation, Indra tasked his son, Arjuna, with the mission of destroying the nivatakavachas, accompanied by his own charioteer, Matali. After fulfilling this task, while returning to Devaloka, Arjuna came across a splendid city. Matali told him that the city was called Hiranyapura, the golden city, and had been created by Brahma as a result of a boon. The boon had been sought by two asura women named Puloma and Kala, who wished that their sons, the paulomas and the kalakeyas, would be invincible against the devas, the nagas, and the rakshasas)
Illusion Manipulation (His Maya(illusion power) should increase 10 times)), Telepathy and Power Nullification (Ravana then made up his mind to conquer all the kings of the earth. After defeating the likes of Dushyanta, Suratha, Gadhi, Gaya and Pururava, Ravana approached Ayodhya. The city was protected by king Anaranya. There ensued a fight between Ravana and Anaranya and both the warriors fought to their full prowess. Anaranya was unable to defeat Ravana, being severely struck with his arrows. Before dying, Anaranya cursed Ravana that someone later would be born in Ayodhya who would kill him. Having effected the defeat of Anaranya, Ravana subjugated other kings of the earth. Within a short span of time, Ravana brought all the kings of the earth under his control), Invulnerability (Ravana only died to the Brahmastra in the hands of Rama, who was basically God in the Valmiki Ramayana. "In the course of combats with the gods and demons, the armour gifted to me by Brahma, the lord of creation, which is as brilliant as the sun, could not be mutilated by those who held the thunderbolt in their fists."), Fear Manipulation and Absolute Destruction (Ravana took up the Celestial and dreadful Pashupata-weapon, the increaser of fear in the Three Worlds, obtained from Rudra, by virtue of his rigid penances. “Beholding this, all moveable and immoveable beings were stricken with terror and the Three Worlds, including all that was animate and inanimate, Gods and Serpents, together took refuge in their abodes under the earth), Power Nullification (He must have the greatest strength), Power Modification and Power Bestowal (He must have all weaponry of Lord Shiva.

"Thereafter, O Rama, he began to range the entire world subduing the foremost of warriors, irresistible in combat and those who were filled with courage and boiling with ardour, who dreamt only of war and who perished with their troops by refusing to submit to him. But those, who knew Ravana to be invincible, showed themselves to be more wary and said to that titan, proud of his strength, ‘We have been vanquished!’ With the sword. The sword can slice hundreds of men in one slash, like cutting many packs of butter of big width, can have no scabbard as its high energy cannot be covered and can never be broken or bent unless by the supreme forces), Complete_Arsenal (Seized all the powers of the gods), Curse Manipulation and Poison Manipulation (He could easily kill Maricha and curse his own subjects as well as other gods.

A terrible fight followed where none of them could emerge victorious. Finally, Yama invoked his Kaladanda to bring an end to Ravana. However, Brahma appeared and intervened in the fight between the two. Brahma convinced Yama that the Kaladanda would render futile on Ravana's body), Environmental Destruction (He should have complete control over nature), Vibration Manipulation, Sound Manipulation (Ravana let out a loud cry which echoed through the three worlds. His cry filled the gods, demons, gandharvas and yakshas with fear. Eventually with Lord Shiva's permission, Ravana left Mount Kailasha with his army. This instance shows Ravana's strength. He was strong enough to lift Lord Shiva's abode with his hands), Weapon Mastery (He defeated humans who were powerful as Indra), Immortality (Type 5 and 9 - Those with Amrit are absolutely immortal; should upscale from Karna who bore armour that could resist every Astra since Ravan existed in the Treta Yuga and is majorly recognised as the most powerful demon in Hindu mythology. He is said to have possessed the nectar of immortality, which was stored inside his belly thanks to a celestial boon from Brahma), Reality Warping, Power Mimicry and Power Bestowal (Ravana wanted his son to be the ultimate warrior and extremely knowledgeable. Ravana was a great astrologer. To make his son immortal, he commanded all the planets and constellations in such a position that would allow his son to be born the way he wanted. Because of Ravana's anger and power, all the planets and constellations feared him. All the planets were in the position as desired by Ravana at time of his son Meghanada's birth) and Absolute Invulnerability ("His body bears hundreds of welts caused when assaulted with Vishnu-disc for hundreds of times in wars with gods, and when assaulted for hundreds of times with the other assaults-missiles in other gruesome wars as well, and Shuurpanakha saw at such a Ravana... Fallen on the unbreakable armour of Ravana, which looked like a large cloud, those arrows could not cause any pain to him at that time.")
Weapon Mastery (The story of Atikaya is explained by Vibhishana in the Ramayana. Once while filled with rage, he tried to uproot the Chakravalgiri mountain. Shiva noticed this and hurled his trishula at him, but Atikaya was so powerful at that time that he caught the trident mid-air like a toy and started laughing), Invulnerability and Spatial Manipulation (Was virtually invulnerable within his armour Brahma Kavacha; he was only damaged after the wind god Vayu told Lakshmana his secret. Was also completely invincible with his armour. Caught Shiva's trident, the Trishula, a weapon that can destroy anything it touches, in mid air and laughed about it. "Lakshmana’s arrows was unable to afflict Atikaya due to his inviolable armour. This armour protected Atikaya from Lakshmana’s sharp arrows. Then, the furious Lakshmana showered forth hails of arrows on Atikaya, as a rainy cloud showers hails of down-pour. Reaching Atikaya, those arrows with the points of their shafts shattered on his armour, adorned with diamonds and instantly fell on the earth's surface.Seeing those arrows becoming unsuccessful, the highly famous Lakshmana the annihilator of enemy-warriors, showered forth arrows in thousands. Atikaya, that mighty demon, though deluged with a flood of arrows, was not agitated in battle because of the inviolability of his armour... Split him with a missile of Brahma. He cannot be killed by any other means. The mighty Atikaya, with that armour, cannot be destroyed by other missiles."), Gravity Manipulation ("Taking trees and mountain peaks, Kumuda, Dvivida, Mainda, Nila and Sharabha marched forwards quickly to attack him at once. Atikaya of great splendour, the foremost among those skilled in weaponry, chopped off their trees and crags with his arrows decked with gold. That strong and skilled Atikaya with a terrific body, struck all those monkeys, facing in front of him in battle with arrows fully made of iron. Those overthrown monkeys, injured with their blown out bodies, by the shower of Atikaya's arrows in that great battle, were unable to retaliate on him. That demon, who was arrogant of his youth, frightened that army of monkey-warriors, as an enraged lion frightens a herd of deers.") and Paralysis Inducement ("He is Atikaya, who paralyzed the thunderbolt of the intelligent Indra with his arrows. He struck down the noose of Varuna, the seizer of transgressors. This wise Ravana's son, who is strong and the foremost of demons took off the pride of celestials and ogres... He conquered the celestials and the ogres several times, destroyed Yakshas the supernatural beings and defended the demons.")
Chaos Manipulation, Invulnerability (To all men. Parvati relates how two brothers of the asura race sought to conquer the three worlds by subjecting themselves to severe penance and purification rituals so that no man or asura could destroy them. Shumbha and Nishumbha traveled to Pushkara, a sacred site, and remained there in prayer for ten thousand years. The creator deity Brahma saw the brothers' penance, and was pleased, granting them the boon they requested. Chanda and Munda, two lesser asuras in the service of Shumbha, encountered the goddess Parvati, and were overwhelmed by her beauty. They carried reports of this goddess to Shumbha, who sought to possess Parvati. Shumbha sent the asura Sugriva (asura) to court Parvati, but she rejected his advances. It was then decided by the asura brothers that if Parvati would not come willingly, they would have to abduct her. First, the asura Dhumralochana and his army of sixty-thousand asuras were sent to abduct Parvati)

He wanted to gain all the yogic perfections like aṇimā and laghimā, to be deathless, and to be the only king of the entire universe, including Brahmaloka".), Teleportation and Telepathy (He should have the Yogic feats of transferring consciousness to different planets in order to save people from the wrath of Hiranyakashipu.), Regeneration/Reactive Evolution/Accelerated Development (High-Godly regeneration - Hiranyakashipu would, with single blow of his mace, destroy thousands. No one was able to even touch his body & when someone could do it rarely his body healed instantaneously like a miracle. His Yogic powers were unparalleled, & why not for he sacrificed majority of his life to attain the same)

Or according to other people it is "Vatapi had the boon of transforming into any life form at will. While Ilvala had the power to bring back the dead. In order to kill the sages, both would take another form. Ilvala would assume the form of a holy man and Vatapi would transform himself into a goat." or "Now, Ilvala and Vatapi, who are great asuras, have these powers of illusion, by which they start devouring brahmanas. They invite brahmana rishis to their house . In those times, brahmanas used to eat meat and drink wine. So Vatapi used to convert himself into a ram, and he would be cut up, his meat would be prepared and served to the brahmanas, who would eat it. Ilvala has this power by which he can make any person appear in flesh and blood(embodied) in front of him, simply by his calling out to them. Even if the person is in Yama loka, he woud have to appear before Ilvala, if he calls his name. This is a siddhi that Ilvala possesses. So Ilvala calls out to Vatapi, and Vatapi comes out of the brahmana’s stomach by tearing it open, thus killing the brahmana. This gory episode happens many times and everybody is frightened of them.")
Darkness Manipulation (The illustrious Achyuta is without beginning and without end. He looked at those two drops of water. One of these was beautiful and radiant and looked like honey. On Narayana’s instructions, Madhu, based on tamas qualities, was generated from this. The other drop was hard, and Kaitabha, based on rajas qualities, was generated from this. With the qualities of tamas and rajas, these two superior ones advanced While Brahma looked on, they violently seized the Vedas. Having seized the eternal Vedas, the best among the danavas quickly entered the nether regions, inside the waters of the great ocean.), Invulnerability, Power Bestowal and Death Manipulation (According to the Devi Bhagavata Purana, Madhu and Kaitabha originated from Vishnu's earwax, and performed a long period of tapas devoted to the goddess Mahadevi, employing the Vāgbīja mantra. The goddess granted them the boon of death befalling them only with their consent, which was granted. The proud asuras then started attacking Brahma, and stole the Vedas, hiding themselves in Patala. Brahma sought Vishnu's help, and eulogised the deity in order to awaken him), Size Manipulation (The two asuras then fought against Vishnu, and were undefeated. Upon advice from Mahadevi, Vishnu employed deceit to destroy the two asuras. Vishnu praised the powers of the two asuras, and said that he would be pleased to grant them boons. Laughing, the boastful asuras, proud of their victories against Vishnu, said that they were willing to grant him boons instead. Vishnu cleverly asked Madhu and Kaitabha for the boon of slaying them. Defeated, the asuras requested Vishnu to be slain at any location except in the water, believing that they would still be invincible upon land. They were subsequently vanquished by Vishnu with his Sudarshana Chakra: Mahāviṣṇu instantly raised his thighs which were enlarged to a great extent over the water as solid earth seeing which the Asuras enlarged their bodies to the extent of a thousand yojanas. But Mahāviṣṇu enlarged his thighs further, caught hold of Madhu and Kaiṭabha, laid them on his thighs and cut off their heads with his discus), Creation (As the Bhagavata Purana has it, the demons Madhu and Kaitabha stole the Vedas from Lord Brahma and deposited them deep inside the waters of the primeval ocean. It was Lord Vishnu, in his manifestation as Hayagriva, killed them, and retrieved the Vedas. The bodies of Madhu and Kaitabha disintegrated into 2 times 6 — which is twelve pieces (two heads, two torsos, four arms, and four legs). These are considered to represent the twelve seismic plates of the Earth) as well as Reality Warping/Power Bestowal (According to another legend, Madhu and Kaitabha were two asuras who had become powerful enough to annihilate Brahma. However, Brahma spotted them, and begged the goddess Mahamaya for help. Vishnu then awoke, and the two conspiring asuras were killed. This led to Vishnu being offered the epithets Madhusudana - the killer of Madhu, and Kaitabhajit - the victor of Kaitabha. They were giving the ability to harm themselves to others. They could give boons to slay them) and Durability Negation (Vishnu killed them using Vaishnavastra according to Uttarakhanda and also gave Brahma the knowledge of creation. "This arrow is full of energy and you are scared because of that. Earlier, this belonged to the eternal god who is the creator of the worlds. The great-souled one created this great arrow to slay the two daityas, Madhu and Kaitabha. Only Vishnu knows about this arrow, which is filled with energy. Earlier, it was the embodied form of the great-souled Vishnu himself. You said that creation was my task and invested everything in me. O lord of the universe! Having taken up the burden invested on me, I worshipped you.")
Same powers as his father, Hiranyakashipu and he can nullify those powers through prayer and speech. Helps Narasimha kill his father who is completely immortal by bypassing the conditions of his boons. Reality Warping, Telepathy, Animal Manipulation and resistance to Poison Manipulation (Despite several warnings from his father Hiranyakashipu, Prahlada continued to worship Vishnu instead of the former. The child is successful in converting other students of the Asura clan into Vaishnavism by teaching them the Narayana mantra. His father then decided to commit filicide and poison Prahlada, but he survived. When the daitya soldiers attacked their prince with weapons, Prahlada informed them that their efforts were futile since Vishnu resided within them. The asura monarch then had the boy trampled by the aṣṭadiggajas, the eight elephants who bear the weight of the earth, but their tusks were broken to bits upon contact with him. He placed Prahlada in a room with venomous, dark snakes, and they made a bed for him with their bodies) as well as Immortality and Regeneration along with Type 3 Nonduality (Type 9 immortality and High-Godly Regeneration - It was Prahlada who asked Shukracharya to acquire the Mritasanjivani mantra from Shiva to save the asuras from the devas. After a long life, Prahlada attained Vaikuntha. Prahlada's great-grandson was the thousand-armed Banasura, who was humbled in battle by Krishna) and Empathic Manipulation/Conceptual Manipulation (According to the Vishnu Purana, his story being told purifies one of all their sins)
Death Manipulation and Invulnerability (Sumbha and Nisumbha’s immunity to man and deity. As long as they didn't kill each other. The brothers Sunda and Upasunda once performed severe austerities upon the Vindhya mountains. Finally, Brahma agreed to grant the brothers a boon, and they sought immortality. This boon was not granted by Brahma. The inseparable brothers chose the boon of being completely invulnerable, except that they could be killed by each other. Leaving the mountains, Sunda and Upasunda slaughtered a number of Brahmins, and threatened the existence of the Vedic religion. Brahma was stirred into action. He instructed Vishvakarma to produce before him the perfect courtesan, who created the beautiful apsara, Tilottama. This damsel was instructed to cause dissent between the brothers. Tilottama found Sunda and Upasunda in the countryside with their retinue, drinking, and celebrating their victories. Beholding Tilottama, they immediately fell to fighting over her, and ended up killing each other. Hence, order was established once more)
Power Nullification, Power Mimicry, Power Bestowal and Power Modification as well as Superhuman Physical Characteristics (Taraka performed penance to Brahma, and when the creator appeared, asked for two boons: One, that none shall be his equal in all of the three worlds, and two, that only a son of Shiva could slay him. This second desire was considered to be crafty on his part, since Shiva was a yogi and was unlikely to bear children; Tarakasura’s boon of bearing adamantine limbs that could destroy heaven and earth), Summoning (According to the Skanda Purana, Kartikeya (Skanda) was appointed as the commander of the gods, charged with his destiny of vanquishing the asura. The divinities offered a number of gifts to empower him. Taraka, the king of the daityas, summoned billions of asuras to defend his realm, his forces commanded by Kalanemi. The asuras gained the upper hand, the armies of the devas falling like trees to a forest fire. Indra was struck down. Hearing Kalanemi's contempt, Kartikeya and Krishna arrived to duel him, the latter wielding his great bow and raining arrows on the asura from atop Garuda. Kalanemi responded by swallowing Krishna and Garuda whole, after which the deity sliced the asura's belly open with the Sudarshana Chakra, the celestial weapon cutting down masses of daitya warriors), Time Manipulation, Matter Manipulation, Chaos Manipulation, Madness Manipulation and Protection ("O Kumara, see the Lord of Daityas, who is like Kala (God of Death) at the close of a Yuga. This is that same (demon) by whom Śiva had been propitiated by means of terrible penance. It is he by whom Śakra and others had been transformed into monkeys for one hundred million years. It is he who could not be defeated by us despite our pile of all (superior) weapons in the course of the battle. This great Asura should not be viewed with contemptuous disregard. He is Taraka. This is your seventh day. Now it is mid-day. Slay him before sunset. Otherwise he cannot be killed."), resistance to Weapon Mastery and Weapon Manipulation plus Power Bestowal ("Thereupon various Devas rushed (against the Daitya) in the following manner: Janardana lifted up his discus and rushed speedily. Indra lifted up his thunderbolt. Yama raised his staff roaring loudly. The infuriated Dhaneśvara roared raising his iron club. Varuṇa roared with his noose held aloft. Vayu raised his terrible great goad. The Fire-god (Vahni) lifted up his Śakti of great refulgence. Nirṛti raised his sharp sword. The infuriated Rudras lifted up their tridents. Sadhya-devas raised their bows. Vasus lifted up iron bolts. Viśvedevas raised pestles and thrashing rods. The Moon and the Sun their refulgence, the Aśvinīdevas the medicinal herbs, the serpents the blazing poison and Himadri and other important ones lifted up the mountains.") and Durability Negation (Taraka proved to be equal to all of their prowess combined, roaring triumphantly. Krishna laughed scornfully, loudly, musing that had he known that Skanda would not slay a devotee of Rudra, the devas and he would not have seen such destruction. Assuming his form of Vishnu, he wrung his arms and swore to kill all the asuras, charging against them and killing a billion of them even as he ran. The earth shook and the devas grew terrified. The gandharva Siddha urged Vishnu to think about his actions that threatened the entire universe. Reverting to his form as Krishna, Skanda and he charged towards Taraka, upon which they witnessed a woman emerging out of the latter's head. The woman announced that she was Shakti, who had resided in the asura ever since his great penance, but would now forsake him because his adharma had out-balanced his dharma. Kartikeya seized the Shakti and pierced it against Taraka's heart, finally fulfilling his destiny even as the deities hailed his name)
Omnislayer and Life Manipulation (Diti is said to have undergone severe austerities for ten thousand years in exchange for a boon which granted her a child who would slay the devas), Air Manipulation, Weather Manipulation, Elemental Manipulation (Controller over all aspects of air. Conquered rain in Vedic mythology), Fire Manipulation, Probability Manipulation and Illusion Manipulation (Via the Vajra. In Vedic times Indra was described in Rig Veda 6.30.4 as superior to any other god. Sayana in his commentary on Rig Veda 6.47.18 described Indra as assuming many forms, making Agni, Vishnu, and Rudra his illusory forms. Over a quarter of the 1,028 hymns of the Rigveda mention Indra, making him the most referred to deity. These hymns present a complex picture of Indra, but some aspects of Indra are often repeated)
Reality Warping, Environmental Destruction, Teleportation (The Shiva Purana features the rakshasi Dārukā and her husband, a rakshasa named Dāruka, who terrorised the forest named after them, called the Darukavana. Dārukā is stated to have acquired a boon from the goddess Parvati, upon which she grew arrogant and reckless. The inhabitants of the forest sought the assistance of the sage Aurva, who declared that any rakshasa who attacked them further upon the earth would perish. The devas, led by Indra, started to wage war on the beings. To save the race from extermination, Dārukā suggested that they move to an island beneath the ocean. The forest would follow with them owing to her boon, and they would not be further attacked. Now safe, the beings started to harass people who travelled upon the boats above and imprisoned them. One of the prisoners was a Shaiva devotee named Supriya. He taught the other prisoners the Panchakshara mantra of Shiva. The rakshasa Dāruka attempted to kill Supriya. Shiva appeared to rescue his devotee, slaying Dāruka with the Pashupatastra. When his wife, Dārukā, prayed to Parvati for mercy, the goddess urged her consort to spare her life. Hearing her plea, Shiva allowed her and the other rakshasas to reside in the forest. Shiva assumed the form of a Jyotirlinga with the name Nageshvara in the site, while the goddess Parvati came to be venerated as Nageshvari. In another version, in the realm of the netherworlds, there resided a demoness named Daruka who engaged in deep penance to appease the powerful and eternal Goddess Adi Shakti. Reciting the sacred mantra "Om Adi Shakti aye Namo Namah," Daruka's devotion caught the attention of Goddess Adi Shakti, who appeared before her. Impressed by Daruka's penance, the benevolent goddess granted her a boon. Daruka humbly requested the protection of her husband and the demon clan, along with a source of sustenance. In response, Goddess Adi Shakti bestowed her blessings upon Daruka, creating a lush forest where they could find solace and security. She assured Daruka that she, her husband, and their demon clan would be safeguarded. With her divine mission accomplished, Goddess Adi Shakti vanished from sight. However, upon learning of the boon and the protection granted by Goddess Adi Shakti, Daruka's husband, Daruk, harboured malevolent intentions. Envisioning an opportunity to feast upon the beings of Earth, including humans, animals, and plants, he urged Daruka to transport their forest to the mortal realm. Succumbing to his desires, Daruka complied. Yet, their wicked actions did not go unnoticed. A wise sage, observing their malevolence, invoked a curse upon Daruk, Daruka, and the entire demon clan. The curse dictated that any attempt to harm gods or sages would lead to their ultimate demise. Lord Shiva, too, expressed his disapproval and cursed the unrighteous demons, decreeing that they would meet their end if they engaged in wrongful deeds.)
Life Manipulation (Jarasandha's father, King Brihadratha, was married to the twin daughters of the king of Kashi. Brihadratha loved both his wives equally but had no sons. The sage Chandakaushika visited his kingdom and gave fruit to the king as a boon. The king divided the fruit equally between both of his wives. Soon, both wives became pregnant and gave birth to two halves of a human body. These two lifeless halves were very horrifying to view, so Brihadratha ordered to be thrown in the forest. An asuri named Jara found the two halves and picked up one with her right hand, one with her left, holding each piece in her palm. When she brought both of her palms together, the two pieces joined, becoming a living child. The child cried loudly, which caused Jara to panic. Not having the heart to eat a living child, Jara took the baby to the king and explained to him all that had happened. The father was overjoyed to see his son, and named the baby "Jarasandha" in honor of Jara the Asuri)
Meta Combat (As Jarasandha was a powerful warrior, it was necessary for the Pandavas to eliminate him. Krishna, Bhima, and Arjuna disguised as brahmins traveled to Magadha and met Jarasandha. After a formal meeting, Jarasandha enquired about their intentions. Krishna, Bhima, and Arjuna revealed their actual identities. Krishna then challenged Jarasandha for a duel and gave him the freedom to choose any one belligerent. Jarasandha selected Bhima for a duel. Both Bhima and Jarasandha were accomplished wrestlers. The duel continued for several days and neither of them was willing to give up. After a long battle, Jarasandha grew tired. Krishna then hinted Bhima that when fatigued, a person might die if pressed too hard. Bhima understood Krishna's hint, lifted Jarasandha in the air and pressed his knee against Jarasandha's backbone, killing him instantly)Superhuman Physical Characteristics (The demon grabbed Rama in his right arm and Lakshmana in his left. Finding themselves helpless in Kabandha's clutches, Lakshmana appeals to Rama to escape and find Sita, leaving him behind as a sacrifice to the demon), Sound Manipulation (The Ramayana narrates that Kabandha was born as a gandharva (celestial musician) named Vishvavasu. He was the son of the Gandharva Sri Vishvavasu or Sri and was also known as Danu (दनु). Vishvavasu performed penance and got the boon of immortality from the creator-god Brahma. He became arrogant due to his boon and attacked Indra, the god-king of heaven. Indra used his celestial weapon the Vajra (thunderbolt) and drove Vishvavasu's head and thighs into his body. Vishvavasu pleaded that he be given a way to find and eat food. Upon Vishvavasu's beseeching, Indra gave him two long arms and a mouth on his belly. Indra also decreed that Kabandha would regain his original form when Rama severs his arms), Empathic Manipulation (The Adhyatma Ramayana tells that Kabandha (the name Vishvavasu is not used) was a Gandharva chief, who was blessed by Brahma with immortality. He was "drunk with the wine of youth and beauty" and used to roam the universe's enchanting beautiful maidens. Once, he laughed at the sage Ashtavakra ("one who was eight deformities"), who cursed him to become a Rakshasa, though the sage assured him that Rama would free him of the curse. Still arrogant, Kabandha once chased Indra. The rest of the Indra episode mirrors the Ramayana telling. The Mahabharata tells that Kabandha was a Gandharva named Vishvavasu in his previous life and was cursed by Brahma to be born "from a Rakshasa womb". The Mahavira-Charita calls Kabandha's real form Danu, son of Sri. The Bhattikavya does not explicitly name Kabandha. He is introduced as "a dreadful demon that was always hungry and being endowed with long arms". Later, he is identified as Sri's son, who was cursed by an ascetic. The Ramacharitamanas tells that Kabandha was cursed by the sage Durvasa, who is known for his hot temper in Hindu mythology), Electricity Manipulation, Fire Manipulation, Life Manipulation (The Mahabharata describes him thus: Kabandha was "as big as a mountain, dark as a black cloud, with pointed hairs all over his body and looked fierce with a voice as loud as thunder. He had an eye on his stomach, round and yellow, emitting a glare like a fire-flame. Looking wicked he thrust his big tongue out of his huge mouth licking the sides." The Ramayana presents a similar description of Kabandha. Kabandha had a broad chest and was without a head or neck. He had only one eye on his chest and a mouth on his belly. He used his long arms to draw his prey closer. Kabandha is often depicted as a tree. Since Vishvavasu now did not have a head, but just two arms and a mouth on his stomach, he came to be known as the Rakshasa (demon) Kabandha, the "headless torso". The word Kabandha is often used to describe a large big-bellied barrel or a headless trunk, shaped like a barrel, which retains its vitality. Adhyatma Ramayana tells us that Kabandha was a fierce cannibal and his arms were eight miles long. His huge face – which had no eyes or ears – was at his chest. He had no head or legs) and Probability Manipulation and Supernatural Luck (The Ramayana narrates: the brothers burnt Kabandha's corpse on a funeral pyre. As the pyre was lit, Kabandha's demon form melted and from the flames Vishvavasu rose up in the air in his celestial form, dressed in spotless garments and finery as a chariot from heaven appears to get him. Vishvavasu told the brothers that to fight calamity there are six ways, one of which to nurture a friendship with someone, who is in trouble. He advised the brothers to find the monkey (vanara) king Sugriva, who would guide them in the quest for Sita. Vishvavasu informed Rama that Sugriva was driven out of his kingdom by his own brother Vali and that Rama should help Sugriva regain his kingdom. The deposed Sugriva dwelt at Rsyamukha hill. Vishvavasu then described in detail the route to Rsyamukha hill. He advised Rama to travel in the western direction till he reached the Pampa lake in the region called Matangavana where sage Matanga's hermitage once stood. Ram would meet vanaras at this lake and also sage Matanga's aged female disciple Shabari, who is waiting for him and after Rama's visit, would ascend to heaven. To east of Matangavana is the Rsyamukha hill, which has an arduous path up. Kabandha revealed that one who ascends to the top of this hill, his dreams come true. Kabandha also assured Rama that his sorrows would end after reaching this hill, where Sugriva dwelt in a cave on the side on the hill. Kabandha then disappears. The demon urges Rama to believe him as he is telling the truth. At last, the demon transforms into a radiant divine being as he was telling the truth and plunges into the sky and he is also a cursed Gandharva)
Matter Manipulation and resistance to Death Manipulation (Vibhishana narrated that Kumbhakarna had been born with immense strength, having subdued both Indra and Yama, striking the former in the chest with the broken tusk of Airavata. At the bequest of Indra, Brahma cursed the rakshasa to "sleep like he is dead". On Ravana's request, he commuted the curse to have the rakshasa sleep for six months at a time, and wake up for exactly one day to wreak havoc and devour to his heart's content. Kumbhakarna is portrayed as a loyal, powerful, and fearless character who fought to defend his brother and land out of obligation and affection. He had an grand appetite and slept for six months at a time), Illusion Manipulation and Sleep Manipulation (When Kumbhakarna asked for his boon, his tongue was tied by the goddess Saraswati, who acted on Indra's request. Instead of asking for Indrāsana (the throne of Indra), he asked for Nidrāsana (a bed for sleeping). It is also said that he intended to ask for Nirdevatvam (annihilation of the devas) and instead asked for Nidravatvam (sleep). His request was instantly granted. However, his brother Ravana requested Brahma to undo this curse as a boon and Brahma reduced it to sleeping for six months, after which he would sleep again as soon as his appetite was satisfied), Superhuman Physical Characteristics and Supernatural Willpower (In defense of his kingdom, Ravana charged into battle and was humiliated by Rama and his army after underestimating his enemy. He decided he needed the help of his brother Kumbhakarna, who woke up only after 1,000 elephants walked over him. In the Mahabharata he beat up Ghatotkacha, the same being who could create countless soldiers) and Size Manipulation (Lakshmana and Kumbhakarna dueled for a long period, leaving both of them exhausted. In his battle against Rama, Kumbhakarna had one arm cut off by the Vayuastra and the other mutilated by the Indrastra. Still, he raged towards Rama, opening his mouth to swallow him whole, and was met with a volley of arrows. In the Kamba Ramayanam, Kumbhakarna acknowledges the divinity of Rama, but informs him of his dharma to fight for his brother, and only urges the prince to keep Vibhishana safe from harm. With his desire granted, he charged against Rama with his feet severed by crescent arrows. He was slain only when the Indrastra was deployed by Rama. Kumbakarna's head was decapitated, and is described to have smashed several buildings and fortifications before descending towards the sea. When Ravana heard of his brother's death, he fainted and later proclaimed that he was doomed)
Conceptual Manipulation and Superhuman Physical Characteristics (According to the Ramayana, Lankini was once the guardian of the abode of Brahma. As she guarded the home of the creator, Brahma, she became arrogant and prideful about her position. She treated others in the palace with contempt due to which she was cursed by Brahma to guard the city of demons forever. Lankini realised her mistake and begged for forgiveness. However, it was not possible for Brahma to take back the curse, and instead gave her a boon that she would be freed of the curse only when a vanara defeated her in combat, and thus bring to end the age of the demons) and finally Omnipotence, Immortality, Regeneration along with Type 3 Nonduality (Type 9 immortality and High-Godly Regeneration - After being relieved attained Vaikuntha
Dream Manipulation, Fate Manipulation and Causality Manipulation (In the Ramayana, Trijata appears as a wise old rakshasi, who dreams of Ravana's destruction and the victory of Rama, the husband of Sita who wages war against Ravana to rescue Sita. Trijata accompanies Sita on a survey of the battlefield of the war between Rama and Ravana, and reassures Sita of Rama's well-being when Sita sees her husband unconscious and presumes him dead. In later Ramayana adaptations, Trijata becomes the daughter of Vibhishana, the brother of Ravana who sides with Rama. She plays a much greater role in later versions, especially Southeast Asian ones), Empathic Manipulation (Barring a few exceptions where Trijata is cast as Ravana's agent, she is generally portrayed as a friend and loyal companion of Sita in her adversity. On numerous occasions, she offers solace to Sita and brings news from the outside world; she also dissuades Sita from committing suicide. After Rama's victory and Ravana's death, Trijata is richly rewarded by Sita and Rama. While some Ramayana adaptations mention her being a devotee of Rama, Southeast Asian versions often depict her as the wife of Rama's vanara general Hanuman, whom she bears a son. She is worshipped as a local goddess in Varanasi and Ujjain; both in India), Precognition (As a true master of dream manipulation. The aged Trijata intervenes and narrates a prophetic dream that predicts Ravana's doom and Rama's victory), Reality Warping (In her dream, Trijata sees Rama and his brother Lakshmana riding the celestial elephant Airavata toward Sita. Rama takes Sita in his lap and rises high in the sky, allowing Sita to touch the Sun and the Moon. Then the trio ride to Lanka and get into the Pushpaka Vimana (aerial chariot of Ravana) to fly towards the north, while Ravana, drenched in oil and with a red complexion, lies on the ground. Ravana then heads south on a donkey and falls in a pit of dung. A black woman in a red saree, drags him to the south. Other members of Ravana's family, like his brother Kumbhakarna and son Indrajit, face similar fates. Ravana's brother Vibishana is seen in regal white garments, riding a four tusked elephant near the Pushpaka Vimana. The city of Lanka drowns in the ocean and a vanara) messenger of Rama burns the city. Trijata advises the rakshasis to take refuge in Sita and apologise to her; in turn, Sita promises that if Trijata's dream materialises, she will protect her rakshasi guards. The second incident is found in the sixth book, Yuddha Kanda. Rama and his brother Lakshmana come with a vanara army to rescue Sita from the clutches of the demon-king. On the first day of war, Ravana's son Indrajit binds the brothers with the weapon Nagapasha (serpent-noose) and the brothers lose consciousness. Ravana sends Sita with Trijata to see the battlefield. Thinking her husband is dead, Sita laments, but is reassured by Trijata that the brothers are still alive. Trijata expresses her love for Sita and tells her that the captive's "moral character and gentle nature" have compelled her to love her), Wish Granting and Probability Manipulation (A temple dedicated to Trijata (called Tirjata in this region) is situated near the Kashi Vishwanath Temple, the most prominent temple in Varanasi. As per local lore, Trijata wanted to accompany Sita to Ayodhya, but Sita said that she would not be allowed in Ayodhya as she was a demoness. Sita suggested her to visit Varanasi and attain moksha (emancipation) and blessed her to be worshipped as a goddess. Trijata enjoys daily worship as a local goddess. Flowers and green vegetables are offered to appease her. Women - who worship at her shrine for seven consecutive Wednesdays - are believed to be blessed with progeny and with the goddess' protective glaze on their family. Many devotees flock the shrine on Kartik Poornima, the last day of the Hindu month of Kartik and its next day, the first day of Margashirsha month. It is believed that the goddess will fulfil the wishes of all who worship at her shrine, after paying obeisance at Kashi Vishwanath Temple on Kartik Poornima. On the first day of Margashirsha, worshippers who had observed a vrata (fast) in the previous month of Kartik conclude the vrata by bathing in the Ganges at the Dashashwamedh Ghat in the name of Trijata. Local lore holds that Rama granted a boon to Trijata: those who do not bathe in her honour after observing the vrata will lose all merit (punya) – gained from the fast – to her))
Immortality (Type 9) and resistance to Illusion Manipulation (Vibhishana freely divulged many secrets that became key to the success of Rama's attack, including revealing the secret path to the temple of Nikumbala, the family deity of the Pulastya clan. In the climactic battle between Rama and Ravana, when Rama was unable to kill Ravana, he revealed the secret of Ravana's invulnerability to Rama. He told Rama that Ravana has stored the nectar of immortality in his belly and it is necessary to dry it. With this knowledge, Rama was finally able to kill Ravana. When Rama was about to leave Ayodhya at the end of his reign, he assumed his true form of Vishnu, ordering Vibhishana to stay on earth and serve the people and guide them to the path of truth and dharma. Hence, Vibhishana is considered one of the eight immortals, the Chiranjivis. Vishnu also ordered Vibhishana to pray to the family deity of Solar dynasty, Ranganatha) and Omniscience (is enlightened by his boon)
Immunity to Weapon Mastery, Weapon Creation, Weapon Manipulation, Reality Warping, Status Effect Inducement, Statistics Reduction and Death Manipulation (The monster reveals that he has a boon from Brahma which makes him invincible to weapons. So the brothers kill the rakshasa by first breaking his arms, then burying him alive in a grave) and Omnipotence/Teleportation/Immortality (Type 5/9 via liberation. When the monsters arms are broken, he begins to praise the brothers for liberating him: he had, in a previous life, been a celestial being named Tumburu, and had been cursed by Kubera to live as a fearsome monster until he be killed by Rama. The brothers bury him, and he apparently goes back to his former celestial abode)

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Supernatural Willpower/Supernatural Luck, Weather Manipulation (Uttanka is one of the few persons described to have seen the Vishvarupa (universal form) of the god Krishna. Krishna blessed Uttanka with a boon that would quench his thirst whenever he remembered him. From then on, the rare clouds that bring showers in the desert have been called "Uttanka's clouds")
Curse Manipulation, Reality Warping, Mind Manipulation, Power Absorption, Power Modification and Empathic Manipulation (As per Swaminarayan Hinduism, Swaminarayan, who was a saint, was born because Narayana was cursed by Durvasa. The story narrates that after Krishna’s demise, Uddhava went to Badrinath, where Nara-Narayana’s discourses were heard by various sages. There, Durvasa arrived and cursed the entire assembly held on Mount Kailash as no one welcomed him. Nara-Narayana’s parents, Dharma and Bhakti, pacified Durvasa, who then reduced his curse. He said that Narayana would be born as their son to relieve them all from the clutches of evil.), Invulnerability, Memory Manipulation and complete Power Nullification as well as Existence Erasure (Casually able to grant Krishna invulnerability based on how much of a liquid he places on certain body parts plus being able to curse Indra to lose all powers, plus forcing Saraswati to become human, meaning he could curse Vishnu with as much ease as he gave Krishna the boon of invulnerability, meaning he could do the same to himself, as well as Rukmini as well as Shakuntala who the sage cursed with memory loss as well as his own wife, Kandali who was turned into a heap of dust for simply "excessive quarreling with him" and Bhanumata. Bhanumati was the daughter of Banu, the then-leader of the Yadavas. Bhanumati provoked Durvasa while playing in Raivata’s garden, and in response Durvasa cursed her. She, later in life, was kidnapped by Danava Nikumbha. However, Durvasa after being pacified explained that no harm would come to Bhanumati and that she would be saved and marry the Pandava Sahadeva.), Death Manipulation, Life Manipulation (Durvasa cursed Indra that he would be cast down from his position as the king of the devas they way the garland was callously cast down. This curse took effect and soon, Indra along with the devas lost their youthfulness and strength. Seizing this opportunity, the asuras; led by Mahabali; waged war against them. The distraught devas approached Lord Brahma for help. He directed them to Lord Vishnu, who advised them to declare a truce with the asuras and request their help in sagara manthana, since it would take all of devas and all of the asuras to churn the ocean), Soul Manipulation (In the Uttara Kanda: "While Rama and Kala were thus conversing with one another, the great ascetic Durvasa arrived at the gate for seeing Rama and approaching Lakshmana said: O Saumitri, do thou soon take me to Rama; my time goes away, so do thou take me first." Hearing the words of the ascetic, Lakshmana, the slayer of enemies worshipping the feet of that high souled one, said "O illustrious Sir, kindly mention thy business. What is thy object ?Order me what I am to do. Rama is engaged in some business so kindly wait here for some time." Hearing those words that foremost of Rishis, Durvasa, impatient with rage, said with blood red eyes: O Saumitri, if dost thou not go even this very moment and communicate unto Rama my arrival, I shall impricate thee, Rama, Bharata, Satrughna, your sons and grand sons. I shall curse also thy kingdom and cities. I cannot any longer restrain my growing fire." Hearing those dreadful and resolute words of the Rishi, Lakshmana thought within himself: My own destruction is far more desirable than that of all." Having thus resolved Lakshmana approached Rama and communicated unto him the intelligence. Heaing the words of Lakshmana and having bade adieu, unto Kala, Rama soon came out and saw Atri s son. And having saluted that great and powerful ascetic he with folded hands, said "What is thine business." Hearing the words of Rama, the highly powerful Durvasa, the foremost of Munis, said. "Hear, O Rama fond of virtue. For a thousand years I have carried on the vow of fasting. It has terminated to day, so do thou give me food as much as possible." Hearing those words Rama was greatly delighted and gave proper food unto that ascetic. And feasting on that nectar like sweet food, Durvasa, the foremost of Rishis, thanked Rama and repaired to his own hermitage. Thereupon remembering the words of Kala, Rama was greatly sorry."), Creation/Summoning (In section 9, part 4 of the Srimad Bhagavatam: "O best of the Kuru dynasty, after he drank some water, King Ambarīṣa, meditating upon the Supreme Personality of Godhead within his heart, waited for the return of the great mystic Durvāsā Muni. After executing the ritualistic ceremonies to be performed at noon, Durvāsā returned from the bank of the Yamunā. The King received him well, offering all respects, but Durvāsā Muni, by his mystic power, could understand that King Ambarīṣa had drunk water without his permission. Still hungry, Durvāsā Muni, his body trembling, his face curved and his eyebrows crooked in a frown, angrily spoke as follows to King Ambarīṣa, who stood before him with folded hands. "Alas, just see the behavior of this cruel man! He is not a devotee of Lord Viṣṇu. Being proud of his material opulence and his position, he considers himself God. Just see how he has transgressed the laws of religion. Mahārāja Ambarīṣa, you have invited me to eat as a guest, but instead of feeding me, you yourself have eaten first. Because of your misbehavior, I shall show you something to punish you." As Durvāsā Muni said this, his face became red with anger. Uprooting a bunch of hair from his head, he created a demon resembling the blazing fire of devastation to punish Mahārāja Ambarīṣa. Taking a trident in his hand and making the surface of the earth tremble with his footsteps, that blazing creature came before Mahārāja Ambarīṣa. But the King, upon seeing him, was not at all disturbed and did not move even slightly from his position. As fire in the forest immediately burns to ashes an angry snake, so, by the previous order of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, His disc, the Sudarśana cakra, immediately burnt to ashes the created demon to protect the Lord’s devotee. Upon seeing that his own attempt had failed and that the Sudarśana cakra was moving toward him, Durvāsā Muni became very frightened and began to run in all directions to save his life."), Fate Manipulation and Causality Manipulation (Sage Durvasa is an example of correct curses, which through outwardly unfavorable events stimulate the spiritual growth of a person. People who were not ready for intense changes scattered in fear when the Rishis appeared, and only the strong in spirit invited him to their place. Durvasa is the personification of the energy leading to spiritual growth through overcoming external difficulties, which are potentially present in each of us and is waiting for the signal to awaken.), Space-Time Manipulation (Once all the apsaras asked sage Narada, to decide who was best among them. At that time Narada said that whoever could distract sage Durvasa from his tapas, she should be the best. As Durvasa is well known for his anger and ill-temper, none of the apsaras were willing to take up this challenge. Vapu, one of the aspsaras took up this challenge and set off to distract Durvasa. While Durvasa was meditating, Vapu started singing like a koyal (cuckoo) from a far distance. Durvasa got up to find out who the singer was and was surprised to see Vapu singing. True to his nature, he immediately cursed her that she would be born as a bird; Punjikasthala was a very beautiful apsara. She was very proud of her beauty. Once when Durvasa came to visit Indra, she laughed at him because he was not good-looking. The infuriated sage cursed her to be born as a monkey on earth. When she pleaded for mercy, Durvasa modified the curse and said that she would be the wife of a monkey king and would give birth to a divine child. She was then born as a monkey princess, Anjana, daughter of sage Gautama and Ahalya; she gave birth to Hanuman), Conceptual Manipulation (Cursed Shiva to make it impossible for him to marry in his present form. True to the curse, on the marriage day, the bride’s family got frightened looking at uncivilized, dirty and scary Shiva’s ganas. and many more things (via cursing)
Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Superhuman Precision, Reality Warping, Conceptual Manipulation and Durability Negation (Once, a group of sages were performing a sacrifice (yagna) on the banks of the Saraswati River. A dispute arose as to who was the most superior from the Trimurti (Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva). Some of them believed Vishnu to be the superior one, while others supported Brahma or Shiva. To settle the matter, they sent Bhrigu to go find out the truth. Bhrigu first went to Satyaloka, Brahma’s abode. There, he tested his father Brahma’s humility. When he entered the court, Bhrigu did not bow down, nor did he offer any prayers. Brahma was offended by Bhrigu’s lack of respect and became angry. Bhrigu then arrived at Mount Kailash, the abode of Lord Shiva. Shiva rose to his feet to embrace his friend, but Bhrigu stepped back and said, “You are adharmic. Don’t touch me.” Shiva was enraged. He picked up his trident, ready to end Bhrigu’s life. But fortunately, Parvati was able to pacify her husband Shiva.) as well as Curse Manipulation, Space-Time Manipulation and Power Nullification, Soul Manipulation and Life Manipulation/Death Manipulation (Lastly, Bhrigu went to Vaikuntha and saw Vishnu sleeping on his wife Lakshmi’s lap. Bhrigu kicked Vishnu in the chest. With a startle, both Vishnu and Lakshmi woke up. Bhrigu expected Vishnu to do the same as the others: feel insulted. But instead, Vishnu said, “Welcome, great Brahmin. Please forgive us for not having noticed your arrival. I am blessed to have your footprint on my chest.” Bhrigu was amazed. His eyed teared up as he bowed to Vishnu with devotion. Bhrigu then returned to other sages and told them about his findings. The sages concluded that Vishnu is the greatest of the Trimurti. This story is in the Matsya Purana, Part 1, Chapter 47 The Devas and Asuras are perennial enemies. They are always fighting. Once, in the midst of a war between the Devas and the Asuras, the Asuras had been completely routed. Shukracharya, the preceptor of the Asuras, decided to do penance to acquire powerful boons from Lord Shiva. Shukra planned to use these boons to defeat the Devas once and for all. Meanwhile, with Shukracharya away, the Asuras were even more vulnerable to attacks from the Devas. So the Asuras went to Bhrigu’s ashram for refuge and lived under the protection of Puloma, Bhrigu’s wife. The Devas once again attacked the Asuras. However, the Devas underestimated Puloma’s strength. Through intense penance, Puloma had gathered immense powers. Using these yogic powers, Puloma defeated Indra. Seeing their king helpless and trapped under the effect of Puloma’s spells, the Devas fled. They went to Vishnu for help. Vishnu knew that Puloma’s capabilities were unsurpassed. There was only one way to rescue Indra: he would have to kill Puloma. So Vishnu went to the hermitage and using his Sudarshan Chakra, severed Puloma’s head from her body. Bhrigu was so devastated when he heard of his wife’s murder that he immediately cursed Vishnu. Bhrigu curses Vishnu with "“You have committed a grave sin by killing a woman. I curse you that you will be born several times on Earth among men!”) and Resurrection (Bhrigu then muttered some incantations and connected his wife’s head with her body. After sprinkling some water on her, the corpse miraculously came back to life. Puloma was reborn! But this incident is very important in Hindu mythology: because of Bhrigu’s curse, Vishnu was born on Earth repeatedly whenever there was evil on Earth. This led to avatars of Rama, Krishna, Parshuram, and countless others.)
Death Manipulation (Vasishtha's birth story is retold in many later Hindu scriptures. The Puranas state that he has three births. In the first, he is a manasaputra (mind-born son) created by the god Brahma. After the destruction of the Daksha Yajna, Vasishtha is killed, but is recreated by Brahma. Vasishtha became the royal guru of Nimi, a king. However, Nimi forgot to invite Vasishtha in a yajna and in rage, Vasishtha cursed Nimi to die soon. Nimi responded by offering him with the same curse. Frightened, Vashishtha ran towards his father, Brahma. Brahma suggested him to emerge in Varuna and Mitra. When Urvashi was seen by Varuna and Mitra, Vasishtha reemerged from them), Summoning (When he was a kshatriya he wanted to take away the Kamdhenu cow of Maharishi Vasisth , which the latter refused. The Kamdhenu cow gave rise to many soldiers which defeated the army of Vishwamitra and forced him to retreat.), Omniscience and Weapon Mastery as well as Power Nullification and enhanced Death Manipulation as well as Energy Projection (Then he performed a tough penance and impressed Mahadeva , and obtained the knowledge of hurling and withdrawing all the weapons present in the Universe. Then he again went to avenge his defeat at the hands of Maharishi Vasistha but he was defeated again by him as Maharishi Vasistha managed to neutralize all his weapons using his Brahmadanda.), Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Supernatural Willpower (After cursing Rambha, Vishvamitra goes to the highest mountain of Himalayas to perform an even more severe tapasya for over 1000 years. He ceases to eat and reduces his breathing to a bare minimum.), Reality Warping (He threatened to make a parallel universe. All the Gods including Devraj Indra were shocked and helpless. Then at the request of Brahma Deva , he stopped.), Higher-Dimensional Existence, Beyond-Dimensional Existence, Dimensional Manipulation, Dimensional Travel and Teleportation (When a proud King Trisanku asked his Guru Vashista to send him to heaven in his own body, guru responded that the body cannot ascend to heaven. King Trisanku then asked Vashista's hundred sons to send him to heaven. The sons, believing that Trisanku should not come to them after their father had refused, took outrage and cursed Trisanku to be a Chandala. Trisanku was transformed into a person with body smeared of ash, clothed in black and wearing iron jewelry. Unrecognizable to his subjects, he was driven out of the kingdom. In his exile, Trisanku came across the sage Vishvamitra, who agreed to help him. Vishvamitra organized a great sacrifice and ritual propitiating the Devas, pleading that they accept Trisanku into heaven. Not one Deva responded. Angered, Vishvamitra used his yogic powers and ordered Trisanku to rise to heaven. Miraculously, Trisanku rose into the sky until he reached heaven, where he was pushed back down by Indra.) and Creation (Vishwamitra at full power with penance. Vishvamitra’s powers at their peak being able to make an entire universe plus Brahma and the other Trimurti where the latter can create a new heaven and turn a being into a constellation before losing his spiritual gifts, which means Vasistha can do these feats with ease - Enraged even more by this, Vishvamitra commenced the creation of another universe (including another Brahma) for Trisanku. He had only completed the Universe when Brihaspati ordered him to stop. Trisanku, however, did not fully transcend through Trisanku Svarga created for him. He remained fixed and upside-down in the sky and was transformed into a constellation, which is now known as Crux. In the process of forming a new universe, Vishvamitra used up all the tapas he had gained from his austerities.), Immortality (Type 9) and Transduality (Type 3 - तपसा अमृतम् उपैति – “Through penance, one attains immortality.”), resistance to Empathic Manipulation (Resisted Menaka and he should be able to resist Mohini, the female form of Vishnu) and Precognition (He can see the past, present and future)
Immortality and resistance to Death Manipulation, Nonduality (Mahabali’s immortality where he survived Heaven and the netherworld. Hell in Hindu texts is a place where death is assured)
Forcefield Creation, Sleep Manipulation, Paralysis Inducement and Illusion Manipulation (Kavyamatha (aka Khyati, Usanas) was the wife of sage Bhrigu; Shukra, the guru of the asuras is their son. Once, asuras fought a war against devas and were severely beaten. Since it was becoming increasingly difficult for asuras to defeat devas in any battle, their guru Shukra went away to perform penance to Lord Shiva, to obtain the Mrita Sanjeevani mantra that was capable of bringing back the dead to life. Meanwhile, Shukra asked the asuras to take refuge at his father, sage Bhrigu’s ashram. Since the sage had left to perform penance, Kavyamatha, offered shelter and protection to the asuras. Devas led by Indra used this opportunity to attack the unarmed asuras. Kavyamatha used her yogic powers to immobilize Indra to protect the asuras. Frightened by this adverse development devas approached Lord Vishnu. Vishnu, along with other devas, went to confront the asuras in the hermitage. When Kavyamatha saw them, she was enraged and wanted to burn them down to ashes. Vishnu decided to kill Kavyamatha; he used his Sudarshana Chakra on her and cut her head. When Bhrighu returned to his ashram, he resurrected Kavyamatha by sprinkling holy water from his kamandala. Kavyamatha woke as if from a deep sleep! As per another version, Shukra, who was blessed by Lord Shiva, with Mrita Sanjeevani mantra, that had the power to bring back a dead person to life, used his power to bring her back to life. Shukra cursed Vishnu for good measure, for his sin of woman-slaughter, to be born on earth countless times and consequently suffer all the attendant consequences of human life. He also banned worship of Vishnu in asura loka, and he pledged to fight the devas and help asuras, as a measure of revenge of Vishnu’s heinous deed.)
Immortality (Type 9), Nonduality (Type 2) and Invulnerability (When the deities revealed their doubts about the likelihood of any ascetic donating his body, Vishnu directed them to approach the rishi Dadhichi. When approached by the deities, Dadhichi gladly gave up his bones for the cause of the good, stating that it would be better for his bones to help them attain victory than to rot in the ground. The devas collected the bones and Indra crafted the Vajrayudha from them.) and Transmutation/Supernatural Willpower/Durability Negation/Power Nullification/Reality Warping/Weapon Creation/Creation/Summoning/Sleep Manipulation (Dadhichi’s gifts of indestructible bones and a body, immortality and freedom from bad things given by Shiva which gives immunity to every weapon, presumably excluding the Pashupatastra. He is above Atikaya since his bones are what made the Vajra and that “only weapons made from him could damage any of the Asura” which includes any Asura above and below him without much effort. Given the fact that he only dies after willingly killing himself and that he drank each of the Astra after transmuting them into such means he could beat everyone on this list excluding Kavyamata since her paralysis would freeze him in place and thus not affect his bones since he’ll be put to sleep)
Time Manipulation, Time Stop, Time Travel, Acausality (Type 4; Kalanemi is a compound word made up of 'Kala', which means "time", and 'nemi', which means "the felly of a wheel or a portion". It represents the time segment of the wheel of time that denotes "the afternoon leading to sunset". 'Kala' also means "black", perceived to be the asura Kalanemi, who represents the period of darkness that "increases as the day move toward night and as the Dvapara Yuga moves towards the Kali Yuga."), Fire Manipulation, Weapon Mastery (He breathed flames from his mouth, and launched a number of divine missiles on his foes) and Earth Manipulation (On a planetary scale. When the asura smashed Garuda's head with his mace, Vishnu retaliated by employing the Sudarshana Chakra to chop all of the former's arms, causing his lifeless form to shake the earth upon its collapse.) as well as Invulnerability/Immortality (Type 9 - To all beings but Vishnu - The devas were then advised by Narada to seek the help of Vishnu, as only he could kill Kalanemi, who had immense powers acquired by meditation)
Paralysis Inducement, Sleep Manipulation, Space-Time Manipulation, Statistics Reduction, Fire Manipulation and Death Manipulation and resistance of Invulnerability/Immortality (Type 5 and 9)/Regeneration (High-Godly)/Nonduality (Type 2/3 - Via his boon. Once, in a battle, the deities were defeated by the demons. Tormented by arrows, they went to king Muchukunda and sought his help. King Muchukunda agreed to help them and fought against the demons for a long time. Since the deities did not have an able commander, hence king Muchukunda had to protect them against the demon onslaught, until the deities got an able commander like Kartikeya, the son of Lord Shiva. Then Indra said to the king Muchukunda: "O king, we, the deities are indebted to you for the help and protection which you have been giving us, by sacrificing your own family life. Here in the heaven, one year equals three hundred and sixty years of the earth. Since, it has been a long time, so there is not any sign of your kingdom and your family because it has been destroyed. We are happy and pleased with you, so ask for any boon except salvation because salvation is beyond our capacities". Muchkunda asks Indra for a boon to sleep. While fighting on the side of the deities, king Muchukunda did not get an opportunity to sleep even for a moment. Now, since his responsibilities were over, overcome by tiredness, he was feeling very sleepy. So, he said: "O King of the deities, I want to sleep. No one should disturb my sleep and one who dares to disturb my sleep should get burnt to ashes". Indra said: "So be it, go to the earth and enjoy your sleep, one who awakens you would be reduced to ashes".) and Physics Manipulation/Conceptual Manipulation (All of the Devas needed help from a human being, the king Muchukunda who protected them where he lives in Swarga where one year there equals three hundred and sixty years on earth, as none of the deities could grant the boon of Moksha due to it being “beyond our capacities” as he instead got the boon of sleep and whoever awakened him would be reduced to ashes completely where Kalayavana, an undefeated and unmatched king, was killed by his gaze as the person “whom Muchukunda’s gaze falls to is doomed to instantaneous death” (who was granted the boon of being undefeatable on the battlefield by Shiva), was killed by his gaze as the gaze, where he falls asleep after and sees Krishna as the Supreme Personality of the Godhead, who grants Moksha, which means that his gazing power likely works on anyone due to it being instantaneous death, including immortal entities since this gaze of his likely is equivalent to Shiva’s usage of the third eye and his flames (including the Trishula and any related Astra) or just below in terms of existence erasure which also includes Indra since he protected all of the Deva and fought against all of the Asura (meaning he can presumably destroy dimensions and his gaze can kill any Deva or Asura due to having protecting all beings, as well as him literally being immortal) as well as transcending other versions of this ability and thus can petrify all beings and instantly kill anyone who glances at him; however the condition of this ability is only activated when he is awoken whilst sleeping, meaning if this ability was passive, he beats every single Asura and Deva without much resistance as Krishna at his most powerful needed his help, meaning he still scales above every Deva and Asura and can kill concepts on a metaphysical level with his boon.)
Sealing (Rishaba is powerful enough to be made a conqueror by merely praying and a conqueror, compared and equal to a prime Indra as all enemies are vanquished beneath his feet, bearing the all-affecting power of Vishnu which can be used to bind anyone, having mastered all thought and having gained strength in war and peace. In Rigveda Chapter 10, verse 166 trans. Griffiths: 1. Make me a bull among my peers, make me my rivals, conqueror. Make me the slayer of my foes, a sovran ruler, lord of kine 2. I am my rivals' slayer, like Indra unwounded and unhurt, And all these enemies of mine are vanquished and beneath my feet. 3. Here, verily, I bind you fast, as the two bow-ends with the string. Press down these men, O Lord of Speech, that they may humbly speak to me. 4. Hither I came as conqueror with mighty all-effecting power, And I have mastered all your thought, your synod, and your holy work.
5. May I be highest, having gained your strength in war, your skill in peace my feet have trodden on your heads. Speak to me from beneath my feet, as frogs from out the water croak, as frogs from out the water croak.)Size Manipulation, Power Bestowal (In the Bṛhaddevatā, Gritsamada is stated to have become as large and strong as Indra through penances, which led to the daityas Dhuni and Cumiri to mistake him for such. When Gritsamada realized their hostile intentions, he praised Indra with hymns so that Indra could defeat them. According to the late medieval commentator Sayana, Gritsamada was captured by asuras and was released on Indra's command and by his was made the son of Śunaka Bhārgava. In the Mahābhārata, not Vasishtha but Varishtha, curses Gritsamada to be a wild animal as a result of Gritsamada faltering in the recitation of formulae in a sacrifice. He cursed that he would be an animal divested of intelligence, subject to grief, ever filled with fear and that he would be an animal for ten thousand years with ten and eight hundred years in addition. However, Śiva restores him to his normal form and grants him immortality. Gritsamada later shared this story to Yudhishthira.)
Conceptual Manipulation (Personification of drought), Invulnerability to Water Manipulation, Time Manipulation, Time Stop, Elemental Manipulation and Reality Warping (Vishnu and the rishis (sages) brokered a truce, with Indra swearing that he would not attack Vritra with anything made of metal, wood or stone, nor anything that was dry or wet, or during the day or the night. Indra used the foam (which Vishnu had entered to ensure victory) from the waves of the ocean to kill him at twilight.) and Size Manipulation/Reactive Evolution/Accelerated Development (SB 6.9.11: After Visvarupa was killed, his father, Tvashta, performed ritualistic ceremonies to kill Indra. He offered oblations in the sacrificial fire, saying, "O enemy of Indra, flourish to kill your enemy without delay." SB 6.9.12: Thereafter, from the southern side of the sacrificial fire known as Anvaharya came a fearful personality who looked like the destroyer of the entire creation at the end of the millennium. SB 6.9.13-17: Like arrows released in the four directions, the demon's body grew, day after day. Tall and blackish, he appeared like a burnt hill and was as lustrous as a bright array of clouds in the evening. The hair on the demon's body and his beard and moustache were the colour of melted copper, and his eyes were piercing like the midday sun. He appeared unconquerable as if holding the three worlds on the points of his blazing trident. Dancing and shouting with a loud voice, he made the entire surface of the earth tremble as if from an earthquake. As he yawned, again and again, he seemed to be trying to swallow the whole sky with his mouth, which was as deep as a cave. He seemed to be licking up all the stars in the sky with his tongue and eating the entire universe with his long, sharp teeth. Seeing this gigantic demon, everyone, in great fear, ran here and there in all directions.
SB 6.9.18: That very fearful demon, who was actually the son of Tvashta, covered all the planetary systems by dint of austerity. Therefore, he was named Vritra, or one who covers everything) as well as Nonduality and Immortality (Type 9 in Vaishnavism - In Vaishnavism, Vritra is depicted to be a devotee of Vishnu. In the Srimad Bhagavatam, when the vajra-armed Indra and the devas battle against Vritra and his asuras, the Vritra proclaims that were he to fall in battle, he would be blessed, since the vajra was imbued with the power of Vishnu and Dadhichi. During the single combat between Indra and Vritra, the former drops his vajra when he is struck on the cheek. Even as the devas gasp, Vritra merely advises him to pick up his weapon, since life and death are the same for him, as he believes that they are all instruments of Vishnu. Indra marvels at the asura's devotion to the preserver deity. When the king of the devas succeeds in slicing both of his opponent's arms, the latter swallows him whole, along with Airavata. Protected by Vishnu, Indra cuts open the belly of Vritra and escapes, finally beheading him with the vajra. Vritra ascends to Vaikuntha upon his death).Statistics Amplification (3-headed boon resulted in an increase of strength over time) and Omniscience (The Vedas embody omniscience - His three heads were each named Somapītha, Surāpītha, and Annāda as each head consumed Soma, Sura, and food, respectively. It is also told that one head was responsible for drinking; with another head, he observed his surroundings; and with his last head, he read the Vedas. Trishiras grew powerful and performed penance to become more powerful. Indra became frightened of him, and sent Apsaras (nymphs) to seduce him and break his penance. However, Trisharas was unaffected and Indra went to him and killed him using his thunderbolt. He was concerned about the possibility of Trishiras reviving, so he sent a carpenter to cut off each of his heads. From the head that chanted Vedic mantras rose the Kapiñjala birds; from the head used for drinking soma rose the Kalapiṅga birds and from the third head rose the Tittiri birds. Tvashta performed a yajna, from which Vritra emerged to avenge Trishiras's death)
Omniscience and Life Manipulation/Resurrection (Richika is a sage who gained the knowledge on all weapons and could grant the boon on restoring a woman back to life and granted another boon to be righteous in the future; Gadhi really did not want her daughter to marry this financially challenged Rishi. So what if he was spiritually rich? But he didn’t have the guts to say so outright. It might anger Richika, and bring down a curse upon himself. The way out, was to set an impossible task for Richika as a condition for the marriage. So he asked Richika: “I have no objections to the marriage he said” even though he certainly had. “As a show of good faith, can you get me some horses?”. He was certain that there’s no way Richika could get them at short notice. Richika was quick to reply that sure, no problem. Gadhi was surprised but proceeded cautiously: “I don’t want toy horses. I want real living, breathing statuesque horses” “No problem” said Richika again. “How many do you need?” “Err… a hundred.” replied Gadhi and seeing Richika’s confident smile quickly added “No, did I say hundred? I meant a thousand” Richika was still confident. “Sure. Any other specifications?” Gadhi was getting desperate now as he realized that somehow Richika could in fact deliver those horses. He decided to up the stakes. “I want them all to be white but with black ears. I want the first one to have purple eyes and a mole on his right foreleg. The second one should have a green tail and an orange mane. On the third one….” and he went on and on.) as well as Durability Negation, resistance to Light Manipulation and Conceptual Manipulation (Shot Surya, completely terrifying him), Summoning and Reality Warping (Richika simply closed his eyes and prayed to Varuna. Varuna, the god of the Sea and gladly helped out. And they weren’t seahorses. They were real horses, exactly according to Gadhi’s specifications. Gadhi had no choice. He had to let his daughter Satyavati marry Richika. In contrast with her namesake from the Mahabharat who had married into royalty, the Satyavati from today’s story had married out of it. After her marriage to Richika, she went to live with him in his humble little home, not the other way around. Nevertheless she kept in touch with her parents. Even more so after it turned out that Satyavati and her mom were bump buddies! Yes, they were both expecting a child about the same time. And if you’re wondering, yes there was a very real possibility that Satyavati’s child would actually be older than his or her uncle or aunt. One day, Satyavati asked Richika to work his magic. He clearly could manage to pull a thousand horses out of thin air. Surely that meant he could also do other kinds of magic. Like ensuring that their child had certain characteristics.), Curse Manipulation, Time Manipulation/Time Travel and Acausality (Type 1 or 2 - While on a walk with his wife Renuka on the banks of Narmada, Jamadagni had an overpowering desire to make love his wife. Since the place was inhibited he was not reluctant to act out his feelings. Surya Deva, who witnessed this, came disguised as a Brahmana and advised the sage that what he was doing was not Dharma, and he was not being a good example. But as interrupting the natural activities like eating, making love etc, are also considered Adharma, the sage was also equally infuriated and as much as being embarrassed too. Renuka was all the more embarrassed and very shy as she was naked; thus the mood was spoilt. He cursed Surya to be afflicted by Rahu and will be considered malefic and Suryadeva in turn cursed the sage to meet humiliation and death at the hands of a king. Lord Brahma came and intervened and pacified both of them such that the splendor of Surya was unaffected. He can also curse someone to be born without ancestors) and Plot Manipulation (Once Mahavishnu’s Sudarshana Chakra was overcome with extreme pride of its own powers. Lord Vishnu cursed it to be born in the human form, with weak hands. The Chakra immediately regretted its own action, but the Lord assured him that they will back together soon enough. So it has been said that Sudarshana Chakra was born as Kartaviryarjuna, a great devotee of Sri Dattatreya, born with very small and weak arms. He belonged to the Haihaya kingdom with Mahishmati as the capital (modern day Maheshwar near Narmada River). Through his penance he pleased Lord Dattatrya and was granted a flying golden chariot that could travel anywhere, wherever he wished. He was also blessed with a thousand arms. Kartaviryarjuna having received many boons from Lord Dattatreya, became a very mighty but a haughty emperor. He even defeated Ravana once and Ravana’s grandfather Pulastya had to beg Kartaviryarjuna for his freedom. He also received a boon that his death will be caused by someone worth of his righteousness. To fulfill his part of the bargain with Sudarshana, Lord Vishnu took birth as Parasurama.
Drunk with ego of his newfound powers, he became tyrannical and began tormenting every one. Once when Jamadagni was alone in the hermitage with wife, when Kartaviryarjuna paid a visit and demanded he and his army be fed. With the help of Surabhi the Kamadhenu, the sage was able to fulfill the demands without much problem. Kartaviryarjuna demanded the cow be his and forcefully tried to take the cow away. Surabhi created a counter army and in the fight that ensued, the king’s army was defeated. The king lost his patience and killed the sage and started searching for Surabhi, but she was to be seen nowhere. It is said that she vanished and went back to the heaven)Perfection, resistance to Biological Manipulation, Omniscience, Duplication and Immortality (Type 5/9 - Parasara’s boons are perfect bodies that are immune to diseases and functionally immortal. Parasara grants boons that allows bodies to essentially be perfect as well as immortality and immunity to diseases and he transcends Agni since he is able to write about him and thus knows the idea that Brahman is endlessly beyond the Sun who is unchangeable and the source of all creation.)
Size Manipulation (In the Vishnu Purana, chapter 9: It being Pralamba's duty to carry Saṅkarshana, the latter mounted upon his shoulders, like the moon riding above a dark cloud; and the demon ran off with him, but did not stop: finding himself, however, unable to bear the weight of Balarāma, he enlarged his bulk, and looked like a black cloud in the rainy season, Balarāma beholding him like a scorched mountain, his head crowned with a diadem, and his neck hung round with garlands, having eyes as large as cart wheels, a fearful form, and shaking the earth with his tread, called out, as he was carried away, to his brother, “Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa, I am carried off by some demon, disguised as a cowherd, and huge as a mountain! What shall I do? Tell me, Madhusūdana: the villain runs away with speed)
Weight Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation, Mind Manipulation, Elemental Manipulation, Physics Manipulation and Energy Manipulation as well as Absolute Destruction and Matter Manipulation (On an atomic level - Prasastapada can control the idea of heaviness, fluidity, merit, faculties and then control the concept of cognition to the point where the user treats all elements and can use them on an atomic level as well as dissolve the entire universe through controlling the concept of karma as the user can then control anything on an atomic level)
Air Manipulation, Life Manipulation, Teleportation and Death Manipulation (Assuming the form of a whirl-wind, Trinavarta carried away the sitting Krishna. He enveloped the whole of Gokulam with a cloud of dust and darkness, the resultant cover of sand particles causing great distress to Yashoda, who attempted to find her son with the help of the gopis. Even as the asura carried the deity to the sky, Krishna caused himself to possess enormous weight, halting the asura in his ascent, who was unable to carry him farther. The deity then proceeded to clasp his captor's throat with intense force, which paralysed him and pushed out his eye-sockets. The asura descended back to the region of Vraja, where he was crushed to death upon a rock. Nanda and the gopas discovered the infant dangling upon the chest of the slain asura, completely unharmed)
Light Manipulation, Invulnerability and Conceptual Manipulation (He is an asura who is responsible for solar eclipses and lunar eclipses as he struck and damaged Surya, causing the sun to be overshadowed with darkness as he then survived a beheading only to strike the sun and moon and destroy them - he is an asura and would lose to Rambha. An assistant of Shukra (Venus), Svarbhānu was also the teacher of the asuras. He deceitfully quaffed the amrita proffered by Mohini, thereby achieving immortality as two beings despite being beheaded immediately after: his head as Rahu and his body as Ketu. According to the Mahabharata, the sun god Surya is also described as an "enemy of Svarbhānu". Svarbhānu was said to strike both the sun and moon with arrows, the celestial bodies being revived by Atri as in the Rigveda. Svarbhānu is described as an asura twice in the Family Books of the Rigveda. Svarbhānu is described to strike Surya, overshadowing the sun with darkness. Stella Kramrisch considers this act as portraying Svarbhānu as a deity greater than the sun.)
Immortality (Type 5/9), Reality Warping, Space-Time Manipulation, Soul Manipulation, Nonduality (Type 3), Fate Manipulation, Causality Manipulation, Power Bestowal, Power Nullification, Power Mimicry, Power Modification (Over Yama's powers) as well as possible Omnipotence and Omniscience (through Moksha and Atman) and then Death Manipulation/Conceptual Manipulation (Nachiketa, desired a boon from Yama, the god of Death where Yama could give the boons that included longevity (likely immortality), progeny, wealth, rulership and control of any planets; but he desired none of these as Yama explained Atman as it is inseparable from Brahman which is the Ultimate Reality and vital force of the universe. He also has access to Om, the syllable of Brahman which created all things as Om is also the symbol of Atman, which is a part of the omnipresent Brahman, where Atman is smaller than the smallest and larger than the largest (smaller than Anima and larger than Mahima) as well as it being all-pervading with the goal of wise men and women being to know the Atman as it is like a rider, with the horse being the senses which are used to guide through the maze of life and desires conceptually, as the Atman goes beyond death due to being immortal as Atman cannot even be understood by reading the Vedas on a mere whim and the inability to realise Atman and Brahman permanently links one to the cycle of rebirth and only upon understanding, does one gain Moksha with the eponymous sage being a Jivanmukta, or one who has gained Moksha whilst living, which is an effectively impossible task for most people. In addition to everything mentioned, the sage is casually able to go to Yama’s house and see him; with Yama seemingly having the wisdom to understand Brahman in some form)
Plot Manipulation, Curse Manipulation and Reality Warping (Valmiki was able to write the Ramayana thanks to a boon from Brahma, which contains characters who can easily annihilate planets and universes as well as curse someone for all of eternity for killing a bird. Valmiki was going to the river Ganges for his daily ablutions. A disciple by the name Bharadwaja was carrying his clothes. On the way, they came across the Tamasa Stream. Looking at the stream, Valmiki said to his disciple, "Look, how clear is this water, like the mind of a good man! I will bathe here today." When he was looking for a suitable place to step into the stream, he saw a crane couple mating. Valmiki felt very pleased on seeing the happy birds. Suddenly, hit by an arrow, the male bird died on the spot. Filled by sorrow, its mate screamed in agony and died of shock. Valmiki's heart melted at this pitiful sight. He looked around to find out who had shot the bird. He saw a hunter with a bow and arrows, nearby. Valmiki became very angry. His lips opened and he cried out, मा निषाद प्रतिष्ठां त्वमगमः शाश्वतीः समाः।यत्क्रौञ्चमिथुनादेकमवधीः काममोहितम्॥' translated into 'mā niṣāda pratiṣṭhā tvamagamaḥ śāśvatīḥ samāḥ
yat krauñcamithunādekam avadhīḥ kāmamohitam' fully meaning: "You will find no rest for the long years of Eternity. For you killed a bird in love and unsuspecting)Omnipotence (Angiras is a sage who has divine knowledge on all things such as men and deities with him being able to either marry the concept of memory or the concept of oblation (a thing offered to a deity) as he is able to control fire on the level of Agni who is compared to Brahman with the use of fire. However, Angiras did the unthinkable and turned his senses inwards, focusing on Para Brahman who is the "creator of the creator" and his penance was infinitely multiplied where he "attained many divine qualities, powers, and riches, and control over many worlds" and became one with Para Brahman, even being able to bring things from space to earth, meaning he is the most powerful sage and entity to ever exist in Hinduism.), Reality Warping, Life Manipulation, Creation, Space-Time Manipulation, possible Curse Manipulation, Death Manipulation, Nonduality (Type 3), Regeneration (High-Godly), Immortality (Type 9 - All of which: Angiras is a sage who has divine knowledge on all things such as men and deities with him being able to either marry the concept of memory or the concept of oblation (a thing offered to a deity) as he is able to control fire on the level of Agni who is compared to Brahman with the use of fire.

Omnipotence (Mudgala is a sage who casually mastered the attainment of the state of Nirvana which is beyond all forms of time, as it is transcendent of space and all boundaries and concepts as it is a state of ascension to absolute boundlessness existing outside of all dimensions that he could summon every Deva possible and had a young wife whom he offered a boon to as they started a sexual lifestyle where he turned into a mountain and turned her into a river and he became a tree and after a thousand years of this, he casually cursed her to the point where her reincarnation would change. After Ravana witnessed the sage meditating, he struck his staff with his sword that literally embodies the moon, causing it to break which broke the sage's spine as he somehow survived this and cursed Ravana so his sword is always ineffective meaning the sage could curse entire planets where he could then go into Vishnu's highest realm known as Parama Padam which is free of all attachments and comparable to Nirvana.)
Omniscience (Satyakama recognised that Brahman is in all things)
Creation and Summoning (The Ramayana presents a similar account about Kamadhenu, however, here the sage is Vashista and the king is Vishvamitra. Once, king Vishwamitra with his army arrived at the hermitage of sage Vashista. The sage welcomed him and offered a huge banquet – to the army – that was produced by Sabala – as Kamadhenu is called in the text. The astonished king asked the sage to part with Sabala and instead offered thousand of ordinary cows, elephants, horses and jewels in return. However, the sage refused to part with Sabala, who was necessary for the performance of the sacred rituals and charity by the sage. Agitated, Vishwamitra seized Sabala by force, but she returned to her master, fighting the king's men. She hinted Vashista to order her to destroy the king's army and the sage followed her wish. Intensely, she produced Pahlava warriors, who were slain by Vishwamitra's army), Water Manipulation and Immortality (Type 9 - The Mahabharata (Adi Parva book) records that Kamadhenu-Surabhi rose from the churning of the cosmic ocean (Samudra Manthana) by the gods and demons to acquire Amrita (ambrosia, elixir of life)) and Reality Warping/Probability Manipulation (She is a miraculous cow of plenty who provides her owner whatever he desires) and Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Supernatural Luck (The Padma Purana mentions that when Kartavirya Arjuna tried to capture her, Kamadhenu, by her own power, defeated him and his army and flew off to heaven; In every story she is featured in such as the Puranas, she never gets caught and always escapes harm through unknown means although it could be argued that she is simply beyond every being that attacks her), Conceptual Manipulation (Over cows) and resistance to Curse Manipulation (Survived being cursed by Shiva in the Skanda Purana), Omniscience (The Brahma Vaivarta Purana narrates that the celestial cow – called Kapila here – produces various weapons and an army to aid Jamadagni defeat the king's army, who had come to seize her. When the king himself challenged Jamadagni for battle, Kapila instructed her master in martial arts. Jamadagni led the army created by Kapila and defeated the king and his army several times; each time sparing the life of the king), Causality Manipulation (Being a miraculous cow, she should have this power), Fate Manipulation (Her tears are considered a bad omen for the gods by Indra, the god-king of heaven), Omnipotence (She is able to grant incredible reality altering powers so she should be able to casually do this), Space-Time Manipulation and Elemental Manipulation (In some iconography and interpretations, she is said to have been the creator of all things such as the Devi Bhagavata Purana where she made the Ocean of Milk by some milk spilling out of her side. Numerous cows then emerged from the pores of Surabhi's skin and were presented to the cowherd-companions (Gopas) of Krishna by him. In the Ramayana, she produced warriors of Shaka-Yavana lineage. From her mouth, emerged the Kambhojas, from her udder Barvaras, from her hind Yavanas and Shakas, and from pores on her skin, Haritas, Kiratas and other foreign warriors. She also symbolizes the Panch Bhuta (the five classical elements) in the icon. Dattatreya is sometimes depicted holding the divine cow in one of his hands) and Subjective Reality (Only over her world of Goloka, the world of cows with Go meaning cow in Sanskrit. She can also exist in Patala, the underworld and have control over it)
Gravity Manipulation, Omniscience, Reactive Evolution, Accelerated Development, Soul Manipulation, Nonduality (Type 3) and Immortality (Type 9) and Regeneration (High-Godly - Shandilya is a sage who can easily control the Moon and understand the limitlessness of Brahman with Brahman being truly indeterminate as Brahman is the “Absolute life-principle within which emerge, function, evolve and dissolve all beings as Brahman created the universe as Brahman is above Atman who is above all worlds, greater than the earth and space itself where the Atman allows for the attachment to the Godhead Para Brahman, with the universal Atman being what all things are born, live and repair in with the Atman being infinite and only reachable after death with his soul being Brahman, who is changeless, unbound by space and time, being Mahadev, Mahavishnu and Mahabrahma and transcending them with no effort and the individual self is from Brahman, with Brahman being far above that as Atman is said to be seen as light in an ethereal nature that changes its shape at will, being able to move at the speed of thought, being greater than Purusha, the sky, the earth, greater than all existing things as it can shrink anything including concepts or living beings with Atman of the body, soul and mind being equivalent to Purusha who is the source, support, power and light of the entire creation, also being equivalent to Ishvara who is the highest form of Vishnu as Atman and Brahman is the creator and overlord of all things. This form of Atman is known as the Universal Atman or Tajjalān which is likely endlessly below that of Paramatman, which erases personality and individuality and is below Para Brahman infinitely)
Omniscience, Power Bestowal/Power Modification, Time Manipulation, Acausality (Type 3 - Sakayanya understands the infinity of time and can even grant boons with ease as he can presumably control the form, manifestation and existence of time where he can also control it through dividing it into certain areas as Time is also a form of death, who is a fraction of Brahman since Time dissolves all things since it cannot be absorbed and decay all things in the universe)
Reality Warping, Space-Time Manipulation, Soul Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation and Death Manipulation (Matanga, which causes instant death. Matanga is also above Dadhichi due to being able to curse a person through forcing reality and time to alter itself)
Time Manipulation, Curse Manipulation, Time Stop, Time Travel, Soul Manipulation (Kabandha spent his days near the hermitage of the sage Matanga in the Krauncha forest. There, he spent his time scaring sages. Once, Kabandha attacked the sage Stulashira, who cursed him to remain in his hideous form for eternity. Upon Kabandha's pleading, the sage reduced his curse and said that Kabandha would be freed of his form, once Rama and Lakshmana sever his arms. So Kabandha waited in that forest for Rama's arrival)
Conceptual Manipulation, Omniscience, Space-Time Manipulation, Flight, Statistics Amplification, Light Manipulation, Reality Warping and Omnipresence (Pravahana was a king who was a philosopher and understood the concept of transmigration as he also understood the concept of the sun burning as fuel from the sacrifice of the Moon, which is thus compared, however he also recognised that space was the true origin of all things in which space, water and heaven were mere iotas of Brahman as he went on the Devayāna which allowed him to eventually, after an infinite amount of time, reach Brahman with him being above light)
Superhuman Physical Characteristics and Death Manipulation (Viprachitti is a danava featured in Hindu literature, a son of Kashyapa and Danu. According to the Mahabharata, he becomes the king of the Danavas after his brother Puloman was killed by Indra. Viprachitti marries Siṃhikā, who is the sister of Hiranyakashipu and a daughter of Diti. He has a son named Svarbhanu. His army is stated to have defeated the devas under the guidance of Svarbhanu)

Life Manipulation, Resurrection, Immortality (Type 3 and 5) as well as possible Energy Projection (Sandipani could gain a boon to have his child restored via Krishna’s “peerless energy” who could perform a feat that couldn’t be performed by anyone else)
Omniscience and Elemental Manipulation (Raikva is a cart-driver who understood the truth of reality and thus likely hold earth, heaven, water, space and air with extreme difficulty as well as understanding this to be the source of all things, since Air is the final absorbent of all things including even the Moon and Sun as air is needed by all of the deities since Prana and Vayu are mere iotas of Brahman’s power who is the substratum of all creation)
Light Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation, Reality Warping and Space-Time Manipulation as well as Curse Manipulation/Death Manipulation (Mandava/Mandavya is a person likely far weaker than Bhrigu cursed the sun to never rise the next day, causing universal chaos which forced the Devas to approach him as Shiva blessed him with the boon of immortality and Mandavya cursed a Brahmin and Yama to die before the age of twelve, which means Bhrigu could also do the same with far less effort)
Omniscience, Nonduality (Type 3), Fire Manipulation and Soul Manipulation (Yajnavalkya was a sage who understood the ideas of dualism, non-dualism, reality and Brahman as a concept as he understood Atman as it is free, liberated and imperishable as a state of existence, being beyond good and evil, suffering overcoming all evil and burning it away meta-conceptually and reaching self-realisation with the Universal Self, transcending all forms of cognition, emotions, time and space, becoming Brahman in the form of Atman to liberate oneself spiritually, as this state of being is beyond spots and all concepts of identification and understanding such as the sun, moon and spots, with the Self being indestructible, not graspable, unattached, undisturbed with the whole Self being able to grant knowledge to the whole world and they can dream all reality into being)
Power Nullification, Body Control, Nonduality (Type 3), Soul Manipulation, https://powerlisting.fandom.com/wiki/Form_Manipulation Form Manipulation], Reality Warping, Shapeshifting, Invisibility, Intangibility, Omniscience, Omnipresence and Omnipotence (The user can control the concept of Neti Neti which allows one to negate everything that isn’t Brahman as well as nullify all objects of consciousness, including even thoughts and the mind as well as the concept of non-dualism, awareness and reality excluding the Atman which means they can even negate the concept of Anatta, as well as being beyond identification itself as a concept where the user negates and transcends all worldly experiences until nothing remains but Atman, which is completely indestructible. This Atman also allows for complete unity with the soul, transcending all definitions of the body, name, identification, form, intelligence, senses, limitations and “I” since it also annihilates ego. The user can then use the power of Brahman in the forms of Saguna and Nirguna which include the attributes of infinity made manifest in a physical form whereas Nirguna is beyond all levels of comprehension as Brahman is free from all things negative as well as being immaterial and material and going beyond Satya, which is a concept that goes beyond the definition of truth and falsehood as Brahman’s forms are infinite.)
Fear Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation (Personification of drought), Invulnerability to Water Manipulation, Time Manipulation, Time Stop, Elemental Manipulation and Reality Warping (Vishnu and the rishis (sages) brokered a truce, with Indra swearing that he would not attack Vritra with anything made of metal, wood or stone, nor anything that was dry or wet, or during the day or the night. Indra used the foam (which Vishnu had entered to ensure victory) from the waves of the ocean to kill him at twilight.) and Size Manipulation/Reactive Evolution/Accelerated Development (SB 6.9.11: After Visvarupa was killed, his father, Tvashta, performed ritualistic ceremonies to kill Indra. He offered oblations in the sacrificial fire, saying, "O enemy of Indra, flourish to kill your enemy without delay." SB 6.9.12: Thereafter, from the southern side of the sacrificial fire known as Anvaharya came a fearful personality who looked like the destroyer of the entire creation at the end of the millennium. SB 6.9.13-17: Like arrows released in the four directions, the demon's body grew, day after day. Tall and blackish, he appeared like a burnt hill and was as lustrous as a bright array of clouds in the evening. The hair on the demon's body and his beard and moustache were the colour of melted copper, and his eyes were piercing like the midday sun. He appeared unconquerable as if holding the three worlds on the points of his blazing trident. Dancing and shouting with a loud voice, he made the entire surface of the earth tremble as if from an earthquake. As he yawned, again and again, he seemed to be trying to swallow the whole sky with his mouth, which was as deep as a cave. He seemed to be licking up all the stars in the sky with his tongue and eating the entire universe with his long, sharp teeth. Seeing this gigantic demon, everyone, in great fear, ran here and there in all directions.
SB 6.9.18: That very fearful demon, who was actually the son of Tvashta, covered all the planetary systems by dint of austerity. Therefore, he was named Vritra, or one who covers everything) as well as Nonduality and Immortality (Type 9 in Vaishnavism - In Vaishnavism, Vritra is depicted to be a devotee of Vishnu. In the Srimad Bhagavatam, when the vajra-armed Indra and the devas battle against Vritra and his asuras, the Vritra proclaims that were he to fall in battle, he would be blessed, since the vajra was imbued with the power of Vishnu and Dadhichi. During the single combat between Indra and Vritra, the former drops his vajra when he is struck on the cheek. Even as the devas gasp, Vritra merely advises him to pick up his weapon, since life and death are the same for him, as he believes that they are all instruments of Vishnu. Indra marvels at the asura's devotion to the preserver deity. When the king of the devas succeeds in slicing both of his opponent's arms, the latter swallows him whole, along with Airavata. Protected by Vishnu, Indra cuts open the belly of Vritra and escapes, finally beheading him with the vajra. Vritra ascends to Vaikuntha upon his death) and Conceptual Manipulation plus resistance of Nonduality (Type 3 - The control of Mada (boon/state of being) the mere presence of him is enough to scare Rakshasas and even other Devas such as Indra since he fears him as he is seen to be a being created by a god sage known as Chyavana where he can even intoxicate the deity Indra since he can grow big enough to swallow the universe in one gulp and then fight Indra who literally carried a mountain in one hand and the Vajra in the other as his teeth and jaws were enough to engulf the earth and all of space including the gods likely including the Trimurti and he can also control the concepts of desire, anger, greed, infatuation, arrogance and jealousy which prevent moksha from being attained, forcing lack of knowledge on the True Being as they can control doubt, positivity, negativity, and the opposition of objects as they can then control the concept of errors and hypothetical arguments and thus create and control delusions where they can control falsehood, appearances and reality where unattainability of the truth becomes factual as without experiencing knowledge of reality and truth, reduces the understanding of Divine Love with the soul as they understand divinity where the person enjoys the power of peace forever where delusions ignore the Atman as its beyond the arrogant mind and personal desire (Karma) as they can control the mind and envy on a universal level. If placed confidently, it would be in the top 6 since he would be able to scare and eat the Trimurti as well as put Indra near-death as his jaws were enough to crush space and put the Trimurti in a state of possible near-death, controlling doubt and objects conceptually. It is an enemy of the mind being equivalent to the Seven Deadly Sins, signifying concepts such as excessive pride, arrogance and stubbornness which is seen as a major obstacle to moksha, which is a concept that transcends salvation, life, death, matter, reality and the mere presence of him is enough to scare Rakshasas and even other Devas such as Indra since he fears him as he is seen to be a being created by a god sage known as Chyavana where he can even intoxicate the deity Indra since he can grow big enough to swallow the universe in one gulp and then fight Indra who literally carried a mountain in one hand and the Vajra in the other as his teeth and jaws were enough to engulf the earth and all of space including the gods likely including the Trimurti and he can also control the concepts of desire, anger, greed, infatuation, arrogance and jealousy which prevent moksha from being attained, forcing lack of knowledge on the True Being as they can control doubt, positivity, negativity, and the opposition of objects as they can then control the concept of errors and hypothetical arguments and thus create and control delusions where they can control falsehood, appearances and reality where unattainability of the truth becomes factual as without experiencing knowledge of reality and truth, reduces the understanding of Divine Love with the soul as they understand divinity where the person enjoys the power of peace forever where delusions ignore the Atman as its beyond the arrogant mind and personal desire (Karma) as they can control the mind and envy on a universal level. If placed confidently, it would be in the top 6 since he would be able to scare and eat the Trimurti as well as put Indra near-death as his jaws were enough to crush space and put the Trimurti in a state of possible near-death. He is also above Kali due to Kali being a part of the Tridevi, and likely even surpasses Gayasura and Banasura’s boons due to him being above the Trimurti entirely as he can mind control everyone) and many more boons including Hanuman's.Creation (Creator deity in Hinduism), Existence Erasure (Through the Brahmastra, an arrow that can destroy all of existence as well as remove the existence of beings including deities from the past, present and future), Absolute Defense, Absolute Shield Construction and Elemental Manipulation (Through the Brahmadanda, a rod that can defend against literally anything through nullifying all things such as celestial weapons or create impenetrable barriers), Illusion Manipulation ("When thou wast roaming, waxen strong in body, telling thy might, Indra, among the people, All that men called thy battles was illusion: no foe hast thou to-day, nor erst hast found one." All battles of Indra were illusion and none in actual happened, all illusions were created for destiny of demons to reach their intended end). Fate Manipulation/Causality Manipulation and Plot Manipulation (He controls all of fate. Brahma is the Creator God who is the wise and creative storywriter. It is Brahma who decides the lifespan of everything/everyone according to which Shiva acts. It is Brahma who decides what will happen in future according to which Vishnu acts. Brahma is also called Bhagyavidhaata (Writer of faith/destiny). He is responsible for every actions and reactions in the universe)), Reality Warping, Immortality and Conceptual Manipulation (Brahma creates all the forms in the universe, but not the primordial universe itself. Thus in most Puranic texts, Brahma's creative activity depends on the presence and power of a higher god. He forms all the normal beings, Devis, divine creatures, and Devas themselves and destroy them all in no time. Wills immortal beings into existence such as Kamadeva, the embodiment and concept of love through his mind alone especially in the Vishnu Purana), Matter Manipulation (In Hiraṇyagarbha Sukta (Rig-Veda 10.121) "Giver of vital breath, of power and vigour, he whose commandments all the Gods acknowledge -. The Lord of death, whose shade is life immortal. What God shall we adore with our oblation?"), Life Manipulation ("Who by his grandeur hath become Sole Ruler of all the moving world that breathes and slumbers; He who is Lord of men and Lord of cattle.

Can control the primordial force that created everything; shown in early texts as the Hiranyagarbha), Curse Manipulation (Could curse other deities that he created such as Kamadev, the deity of love. Brahma regains consciousness and curses Kama to be burnt to ashes by Shiva in the future. However, on Kama's pleading, Brahma assures him that he would be reborn. A later version of the myth is found in the Skanda Purana, according to which, Brahma creates Kama from his mind to ignite passion in the prajapatis (agents of creation) after they refused to procreate), Information Manipulation and Data Manipulation (Type 2 for both - He is the god of data because through creativity he give us many options. He is the god of language, speech and symbols. He is the god who converts practicals into theory), Higher-Dimensional Existence and Beyond-Dimensional Existence (Language fails to describe Brahmaloka's shape and size as it completely changes its form each moment. There is no hunger, thirst there and also any kind of uneasiness is not present. It is not supported by any columns, it is eternal), Death Manipulation (At the end of his "nights". The “night of Brahma” is a condition of a particular Brahmanda or universe. During the night of Brahma, nothing exists in the Brahmanda except for Brahma; or rather, all such existence is folded into Brahma, to be poured forth from him when he wakes at the start of his next “day”. Can slay anyone with a mere thought) and Omnipotence/Power Bestowal/Power Nullification/Power Absorption/Power Modification (Brahma can give boons, making Kubera from a Yaksha to a wealth deity who controls all the wealth in the world.

And Pulastya hath a mighty son called Vaisravana begotten of a cow. But his son, leaving his father, went to his grandfather. And, O king, angered at this, his father then created a second self of himself. And with half of his own self that regenerate one became born of Visrava for wrecking a vengeance on Vaisravana. But the Grandsire, pleased with Vaisravana, gave him immortality, and sovereignty of all the wealth of the Universe, the guardianship of one of the cardinal points, the friendship of Isana, and a son named Nalakuvera.

Mula means "original, main"; adhara means "base, foundation". The muladhara chakra is the principle on which the manifestation or outward expansion of primordial Divine Force rests. This association is also attested to in the Ganapati Atharvashirsa. Courtright translates this passage as follows: "You continually dwell in the sacral plexus at the base of the spine [mūlādhāra cakra]." Thus, Ganesha has a permanent abode in every being at the Muladhara. Ganesha holds, supports and guides all other chakras, thereby "governing the forces that propel the wheel of life"), Mind Manipulation (over elephants, rats and obstacles), Time Manipulation (God of beginnings), Weapon Mastery/Superhuman Physical Characteristics (Fought all deities at once), Plot Manipulation and Omniscience (He helped create important texts such as the Mahabharata, according to legend and potential scholarly discourse. Ganesha is considered to be the Lord of letters and learning. In Sanskrit, the word buddhi is an active noun that is variously translated as intelligence, wisdom, or intellect and he is the patron of letters. Lord of categories), Omnipotence (As Mahaganapati. Ganesha is referred as lambodara ie the entire cosmic eggs ( universes) are contained inside his stomach. The Brahmanda Purana says that Ganesha has the name Lambodara because all the universes (cosmic eggs) of the past, present, and future are present in him. In the older Vedic texts. The Ganapati Atharvashirsa attests to this association. Chinmayananda translates the relevant passage as follows: O Lord Ganapati!) You are (the Trimurti) Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesa. You are Indra. You are fire [Agni] and air [Vāyu]. You are the sun [Sūrya] and the moon [Chandrama]. You are Brahman. You are (the three worlds) Bhuloka [earth], Antariksha-loka [space], and Swargaloka [heaven]. You are Om. (That is to say, You are all this)), Reality Warping (Both of a material and spiritual order as the Remover of Obstacles allowing him to control anything), Causality Manipulation, Fate Manipulation (Over destiny, as Mahaganapati who is an omnipotent being and all things are obstacles) and Death Manipulation/Conceptual Manipulation (Ganesha defeated all the gods headed by indra even before he was beheaded by Shiva)
Conceptual Manipulation (Over preservation), Transmutation (Could change anything if he willed it), Invulnerability (Via the Sudarshana Chakra and in Vaishnavism in combat especially), Illusion Manipulation (In Rigveda 1.164, it is stated that "When the first-born of holy Law approached me, then of this speech, I first obtain a portion. They call him Indra, Mitra, Varuna, Agni, and he is heavenly-winged Garutman. To what is One, sages give many a title"), Life Manipulation and Healing (His life-force is perfect and in most texts, he can heal all injuries), Omnipotence (Mahavishnu and in Vaishnavite traditions, he transcends creation. He can cause all living beings to rise up and impel them to go about their daily activities in the Rigveda. In Srimad Bhagavatam, this is explained as: Kāraṇārṇavaśāyī Viṣṇu is the first incarnation of the Supreme Lord, and He is the master of eternal time, space, cause and effects, mind. In Vaishnavism; Mahavishnu enters each of the many universes so created (seeds emerging from the pores of His skin) as Garbhodaksayi Vishnu, who lays down in each and every of these individual material universes (Brahmanas). It can be interpreted that Garbodakshayi Vishnu is the collective soul of all souls in a particular material universe, and that Mahavishnu is the collective soul of all souls in all of the material universes and he can make himself all-powerful; Is all-powerful according to Vaishnavite beliefs as Mahavishnu), Avatar Creation (Each of his avatars but specifically Krishna and Rama, especially in Vaishnavite tradition), Creation (In the Vyasa of the Bhagavata, "all the worlds, from the realm of Brahma included in the Brahmanda (cosmic sphere), are spheres in which experiences conferring Aisvarya (prosperity and power) can be obtained. But they are destructible and those who attain them are subject to return. Therefore destruction, i.e., return is unavoidable for the aspirants for Aisvarya, as the regions where it is attained perish. On the contrary there is no birth to those who attain Me, the Omniscient, who has true resolves, whose sport is creation, sustentation and dissolution of the entire universe, who is supremely compassionate and who is always of the same form. For these reasons there is no destruction in the case of those who attain Me. He now elucidates the time-period settled by the Supreme Person's will in regard to the evolution and dissolution of the worlds up to the cosmic sphere of Brahma and of those who are within them. He is believed to have emerged from the primeval ocean, Garbhodaka. One version of the cosmology, for example, states that Vishnu's eye is at the Southern Celestial Pole from where he watches the cosmos. In another version found in section 4.80 of the Vayu Purana, he is the Hiranyagarbha, or the golden egg from which were simultaneously born all feminine and masculine beings of the universe), Reality Warping (Lakshmi is his power; and should possess this ability, especially in Vaishnavite traditions), Time Manipulation (Like other Puranas, it discusses a wide range of topics including cosmology, genealogy, geography, mythology, legend, music, dance, yoga and culture. As it begins, the forces of evil have won a war between the benevolent devas (deities) and evil asuras (demons) and now rule the universe. Truth re-emerges as the Vishnu avatar first makes peace with the demons, understands them and then creatively defeats them, bringing back hope, justice, freedom and good – a cyclic theme that appears in many legends) and Conceptual Manipulation (The historic identifiers of his icon include his image holding a conch shell (shankha named Panchajanya) between the first two fingers of one hand (left back), a chakra – war discus named Sudarshana – in another (right back). The conch shell is spiral and symbolizes all of interconnected spiraling cyclic existence, while the discus symbolizes him as that which restores dharma with war if necessary when cosmic equilibrium is overwhelmed by evil. One of his arms sometimes carries a gada (club, mace named Kaumodaki) which symbolizes authority and power of knowledge. In the fourth arm, he holds a lotus flower (padma) which symbolizes purity and transcendence), Omnipresence (Several hymns of the Rigveda repeat the mighty deed of Vishnu called the Trivikrama, which is one of the lasting mythologies in Hinduism since the Vedic times. It is an inspiration for ancient artwork in numerous Hindu temples such as at the Ellora Caves, which depict the Trivikrama legend through the Vamana avatar of Vishnu. Trivikrama refers to the celebrated three steps or "three strides" of Vishnu. Starting as a small insignificant looking being, Vishnu undertakes a herculean task of establishing his reach and form, then with his first step covers the earth, with second the ether, and the third entire heaven), Nonduality (Type 3 - Is equal to Shiva and in Bhagavata Purana 1.2.10-11, The Bhagavata Purana, in many passages, parallels the ideas of Nirguna Brahman and non-duality of Adi Shankara. For example: The aim of life is an inquiry into the Truth, and not the desire for enjoyment in heaven by performing religious rites. Those who possess the knowledge of the Truth, call the knowledge of non-duality as the Truth), Omniscience (Is knowledgeable on everything), Light Manipulation (In the Vedic hymns, Vishnu is invoked alongside other deities, especially Indra, whom he helps in killing the symbol of evil named Vritra. His distinguishing characteristic in Vedas is his association with light. Two Rigvedic hymns in Mandala 7 refer to Vishnu. The Bhagavata asserts, according to Bryant, that the empirical and the spiritual universe are both metaphysical realities, and manifestations of the same Oneness, just like heat and light are "real but different" manifestations of sunlight), Probability Manipulation, Space-Time Manipulation (Yoganidra and can restore the cosmic order of existence) and Fate Manipulation/Causality Manipulation (The theology in the Bhagavad Gita discusses both the sentient and the non-sentient, the Self and the matter of existence. It envisions the universe as the body of Vishnu (Krishna), state Harold Coward and Daniel Maguire. Vishnu in Gita's theology pervades all selves, all matter, and time), Power Nullification (Is also immune to all powers, especially in Vaishnavism), Shapeshifting (He assumes 10 different forms in four Yugas to destroy unrighteousness and protect virtue), Life Manipulation (From his breath. Every universe is covered by seven layers — earth, water, fire, air, sky, the total energy and false ego — each ten times greater than the previous one. There are innumerable universes besides this one, and although they are unlimitedly large, they move about like atoms in You. Therefore You are called unlimited [ananta]. Mahavishnu is said to rule over all existence and the one who created the spiritual realms. The Shatapatha Brahmana contains ideas which Vaishnavism tradition of Hinduism has long mapped to a pantheistic vision of Vishnu as supreme, he as the essence in every being and everything in the empirically perceived universe. In this Brahmana, states Klaus Klostermaier, Purusha Narayana (Vishnu) asserts, "all the worlds have I placed within mine own self, and my own self has I placed within all the worlds." The text equates Vishnu to all knowledge there is (Vedas), calling the essence of everything as imperishable, all Vedas and principles of universe as imperishable, and that this imperishable which is Vishnu is the all), Elemental Manipulation (Has complete control of the elements, the material ego, the modes of nature, the senses, the universal form of the Lord, Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, and the sum total of all living beings, both moving and non-moving. According to Vaishnava cosmogony, he puts the seed of this material universe in Mahamaya by glancing at her. Mahamaya remains the ever obedient material energy of Vishnu. All the natural elements including sky, fire, water, air and land are created along with mind, intelligence and false ego), Creation (Some versions of the Purana texts, unlike the Vedic and Upanishadic texts, emphasize Vishnu as supreme and on whom other gods depend. Vishnu, for example, is the source of creator deity Brahma in the Vaishnavism-focussed Purana texts. Vishnu's iconography and a Hindu myth typically shows Brahma being born in a lotus emerging from his navel, who then is described as creating the world or all the forms in the universe, but not the primordial universe itself. In contrast, the Shiva-focussed Puranas describe Brahma and Vishnu to have been created by Ardhanarishvara, that is half Shiva and half Parvati; or alternatively, Brahma was born from Rudra, or Vishnu, Shiva and Brahma creating each other cyclically in different aeons (kalpa). In some Vaishnava Puranas, Vishnu takes the form of Rudra or commands Rudra to destroy the world, thereafter the entire universe dissolves and along with time, everything is reabsorbed back into Vishnu. The universe is then recreated from Vishnu all over again, starting a new Kalpa. For this the Bhagavata Purana employs the metaphor of Vishnu as a spider and the universe as his web. Other texts offer alternate cosmogenic theories, such as one where the universe and time are absorbed into Shiva. Vaishnava thought holds Vishnu to exist in the alternate guise of "Isvara, the Lord of All Being" and the universe to be his breath that he will "assimilate" into him again, by breathing and causing the end of the world, which has happened before. Afterwards, he will "exhale again and re-create the world."), Power Bestowal (Can continually increase his abilities to the utmost. The Vaishnava tradition started by Madhvacharya considers Vishnu in the form of Krishna to be the supreme creator, personal God, all-pervading, all devouring, one whose knowledge and grace leads to "moksha". In Madhvacharya Vaishnava theology, the supreme Vishnu and the Selfs of living beings are two different realities and nature (dualism), while in Ramanuja's Sri Vaishnavism, they are different but share the same essential nature (qualified non-dualism). In the Bhakti tradition of Vaishnavism, Vishnu is attributed with numerous qualities such as omniscience, energy, strength, lordship, vigour, and splendour), Power Nullification (In his capacity as Mahavishnu, the deity is known as the Supreme Purusha, the absolute protector and sustainer of the universe, the one who is beyond human comprehension, and all attributes), Omnipotence (According to Max Muller, "Although the gods are sometimes distinctly invoked as the great and the small, the young and the old (Rig Veda 1:27:13), this is only an attempt to find the most comprehensive expression for the divine powers and nowhere is any of the gods represented as the subordinate to others. It would be easy to find, in the numerous hymns of the Veda, passages in which almost every single god is represented as supreme and absolute" where in Vaishnavite texts, he could give omnipotence to beings such as his avatar Krishna or Rama. The Vaishnava tradition started by Madhvacharya considers Vishnu in the form of Krishna to be the supreme creator, personal God and as God in Vaishnavism, he should have this ability; also as Mahavishnu. In Bhagavad Gita, his existence is the start for material creation, Krishna's plenary expansion assumes three Vishnus. The first, Mahā Viṣhṇu, creates the total material energy, known as the mahat-tattva. The second, Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, enters into all the universes to create diversities and the third, Kṣīrodakaśāyī Vishnu, is diffused as the all-pervading super soul in all the universes; in the heart of every living being, is known as Paramātmā. He is present even within the atoms. The goal of life is to know Kṛṣṇa, who is situated within the heart of every living being as Paramātmā, the four-handed Viṣṇu form. Within Vaishnavism as the supreme being who creates, protects and destroys the universe. In the Yajurveda, Taittiriya Aranyaka (10.13.1), "Narayana sukta", Narayana is mentioned as the supreme being. The first verse of "Narayana Suktam" mentions the words paramam padam, which literally mean 'highest post' and may be understood as the 'supreme abode for all Selfs'. This is also known as Param Dhama, Paramapadam, or Vaikuntha. Rigveda 1.22.20 also mentions the same paramam padam. The Bhagavata Purana summarizes the Vaishnava theology, wherein it frequently discusses the merging of the individual Self with the Absolute Brahman (Ultimate Reality, Supreme Truth), or "the return of Brahman into His own true nature", a distinctly Advaitic or non-dualistic philosophy of Shankara. The concept of moksha is explained as Ekatva ('Oneness') and Sayujya ('Absorption, intimate union'), wherein one is completely lost in Brahman (Self, Supreme Being, one's true nature). This is proclamation of "return of the individual Self to the Absolute and its merging into the Absolute"), Omnipresence (Mahavishnu also is said to exist everywhere. Vishnu (or Viṣṇu, Sanskrit: विष्णु) means 'all pervasive' and, according to Medhātith (c. 1000 CE), 'one who is everything and inside everything'. Vedanga scholar Yaska (4th century BCE) in the Nirukta defines Vishnu as viṣṇur viṣvater vā vyaśnoter vā ('one who enters everywhere'); also adding atha yad viṣito bhavati tad viṣnurbhavati ('that which is free from fetters and bondage is Vishnu') The Garuda Purana (chapter XV) and the "Anushasana Parva" of the Mahabharata both list over 1000 names for Vishnu, each name describing a quality, attribute, or aspect of God. Known as the Vishnu Sahasranama, Vishnu here is defined as 'the omnipresent'. Elsewhere in Rigveda, Atharvaveda and Upanishadic texts, Vishnu is equivalent to Prajapati, both are described as the protector and preparer of the womb, and according to Klaus Klostermaier, this may be the root behind the post-Vedic fusion of all the attributes of the Vedic Prajapati unto the avatars of Vishnu. He is also able to be competent in anything he wants through using his power or by willing it), Law Manipulation (In Vaishnavism. The term Mahavishnu refers to the absolute truth, Brahman (impersonal invisible aspect) then as Paramatma (Aspect beyond the understanding of human soul), and finally as Sarvatma (incarnating for bringing perfection) Bhakti (loving devotion) is offered to Sarvatman (Krishna or Rama avatars or incarnations of Vishnu, Narayana bringing both peace and perfection of the living beings)), Conceptual Manipulation (In the Bhagavad Gita, Vishnu states that "Whenever righteousness wanes and unrighteousness increases I send myself forth. For the protection of the good and for the destruction of evil, and for the establishment of righteousness, I come into being age after age), Water Manipulation (Controls the primordial force of the Ocean of Milk), Reality Warping (He is known to maintain all of reality through his Yoganidra. A traditional depiction of Vishnu is that of him reclining on the coils of the serpent Shesha, accompanied by his consort Lakshmi, as he "dreams the universe into reality.". Hari plucked two hairs from his body. One was white and the other was black. These two hairs entered the wombs of two women from the Yadu lineage, Rohini and Devaki. One of them became Baladeva and the second one that was black became Keshava” - Text 30: When the cowherd woman [Kṛṣṇa’s foster mother, Yaśodā] was trying to tie the hands of her son with ropes, she found the rope to be always insufficient in length, and when she finally gave up, Lord Kṛṣṇa, by and by, opened His mouth, wherein the mother found all the universes situated. Seeing this, she was doubtful in her mind, but she was convinced in a different manner of the mystic nature of her son. His soul is purer than any other. In this way, bhakti surpasses even yoga, which is aimed at the Supersoul, Paramatman. Mahavishnu is the Supersoul of all living beings (jivatmas) in all material universes))
Omnipresence, Immortality (Type 1, 5, 8, 9), Beyond-Dimensional Existence (Type 2; Krishna's true form is shapeless, formless and Everything but Atma/Parmatma is illusion beyond the confines of all of creation, he's unchanging Parmatma, all of existence is nothing but mere illusion to him), Acausality (Type 5; His true form is beyond comprehension of being and cannot be perceived even with divine eyes or any other means, his true form is seen by none but only his Colossus form has been seen once by Arjuna and he's timeless, shapeless, Krishna is creator of illusionary world and beyond it and this it's qualities beyond all of illusionary existence and qualities, making it impossible to be perceived, he's detached from all attachments from this world), Reality Warping (Everything but Atma/Parmatma is illusion.

Everything but Atma/Parmatma is illusion. His being is unmanifested and goes beyond material world and mind, leaving it incomprehensible), Spatial Manipulation, Time Manipulation (Everything but Atma/Parmatma is illusion. He has total control over all of illusive Universal tree), Law Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation, Mind Manipulation (Krishna is beyond law, Dharma, karma, cycle of life and death and all materialistic world. He created all laws, concepts and cycle of the world, created limitless distractions which can astray humans of their path), Power Nullification (Possesses the counter to everything through as the Supreme Personality of Godhead {Gaudiya Vaishnavism}), Superhuman Physical Characteristics (In the Vishnu Purana, even as a child, he is capable of fighting asuras that can become mountains), Omnipotence/Omnipresence/Avatar Creation (In the Mahabharata and in Vaishnavism; During the ancient times that the Srimad Bhagavad Gita was composed in, Krishna was widely seen as an avatar of Vishnu rather than an individual deity but he is Svayam Bhagavan (Supreme God) in Gaudiya Vaishnavism. He was immensely powerful and everything was seen inside Shri Krishna, including the whole Multiverse and Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva when he showed his Vishwaroop (the universal and supreme form) to Arjun when he was teaching the Bhagavat Gita to Arjun. Krishna had "no beginning or end", "fill[ed] space", and every god was seen as ultimately him, including Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, "storm gods, sun gods, bright gods", light gods, "and gods of ritual." Other forces also existed in his body, such as "hordes of varied creatures" that included "celestial serpents." He is also "the essence of humanity. He is everything and Nothing". In Vaishnavism and in the Mahabharata; is also generally seen to be a universally supreme being) Telekinesis (Sometimes shown as a child in texts where his childhood is featured - Hindus in some regions such as Maharashtra playfully mimic his legends, such as by making human gymnastic pyramids to break open handis (clay pots) hung high in the air to "steal" butter or buttermilk, spilling it all over the group. In Hindu stories, he is said to be a trickster and a playful deity and as a child, he is said to have played games) Universal Lordship (Lord of the Universe.), Reality Warping (In Vaishnavism), Weapon Mastery (Mastery over Chariots, especially seen in the Mahabharata), Sound Manipulation (Some iconography shows him playing music), Empathic Manipulation (He is known for his unending compassion towards his devotees. He is known for his compassion towards all living beings. Could be empowered by love and he Was said to be a true hero who performed many feats of power and he is said to have the purest heart. He is the spiritual essence and the love-eternal in existence, the Gopis metaphorically represent the Prakrti matter and the impermanent body. God of Tenderness and he Could guard beings without any effort. He restored the honor of 16,000 women who were kidnapped by Narakasura. Could cause beings to fall in love with him and loved all those who knew him which was prominently seen in Hindu texts.), Power Bestowal (Could grant blessings at will), Life Manipulation (Could control the life force of others), Weapon Mastery (Flute, chariot, discus, mace, bow, crown), resistance of Invulnerability and Immortality/Power Nullification/Nonduality (Type 3)/Regeneration (High-Godly via Sudarshana Chakra), Omniscience (Is knowledgeable about everything. According to the epic poem Mahabharata, Krishna becomes Arjuna's charioteer for the Kurukshetra War, but on the condition that he personally will not raise any weapon. Upon arrival at the battlefield and seeing that the enemies are his family, his grandfather, and his cousins and loved ones, Arjuna is moved and says his heart will not allow him to fight and kill others. He would rather renounce the kingdom and put down his Gandiva (Arjuna's bow). Krishna then advises him about the nature of life, ethics, and morality when one is faced with a war between good and evil, the impermanence of matter, the permanence of the soul and the good, duties and responsibilities, the nature of true peace and bliss and the different types of yoga to reach this state of bliss and inner liberation. This conversation between Krishna and Arjuna is presented as a discourse called the Bhagavad Gita and he can do/know whatever he wishes as the Supreme Personality of the Godhead. Other texts that include Krishna such as the Bhagavad Gita have attracted numerous bhasya (commentaries) in the Hindu traditions. Though only a part of the Hindu epic Mahabharata, it has functioned as an independent spiritual guide. It allegorically raises through Krishna and Arjuna the ethical and moral dilemmas of human life, then presents a spectrum of answers, weighing in on the ideological questions on human freedoms, choices, and responsibilities towards self and towards others. This Krishna dialogue has attracted numerous interpretations, from being a metaphor of inner human struggle teaching non-violence, to being a metaphor of outer human struggle teaching a rejection of quietism to persecution), Resurrection (He resurrected Parikshit, the son of Abhimanyu and Uttara after he was born dead due to Asvatthama's powers. Krishna's life is closer to that of a human being in Harivamsa, but is a symbolic universe in the Bhagavata Purana, where Krishna is within the Multiverse and beyond it, as well as the Multiverse itself, always)
Superhuman Precision (In other tales such as the Valmiki variants of Ramayana, he killed Vali by firing at his chest with his bow), Superhuman Physical Characteristics (Hanuman describes Rama to Sita when she is held captive in Lanka to prove to her that he is indeed a messenger from Rama: He has broad shoulders, mighty arms, a conch-shaped neck, a charming countenance, and coppery eyes; he has his clavicle concealed and is known by the people as Rama. He has a voice (deep) like the sound of a kettledrum and glossy skin, is full of glory, square-built, and of well-proportioned limbs and is endowed with a dark-brown complexion. He could fight scores of enemies at once, being a Atimaharathi, someone who can fight millions of soldiers at once), Darkness Manipulation and possible Statistics Amplification (The name Rama appears repeatedly in Hindu texts, for many different scholars and kings in mythical stories. The word also appears in ancient Upanishads and Aranyaka layer of Vedic literature, as well as music and other post-Vedic literature, but in qualifying context of something or someone who is "charming, beautiful, lovely" or "darkness, night"), Supernatural Luck (Fought Ravana with ease), Fear Manipulation (His divine presence makes his enemies quiver with fear in their chariots), Power Nullification (Even as a baby, Rama's birth, according to Ramayana, is an incarnation of God (Vishnu) as human.

They enter the sun bark with Ra."), Clairvoyance (The sun and moon are the "eyes" of Ra. "The myths from which this chapter has been constructed date from the Empire period, and especially the Nineteenth and Twentieth Dynasties. Ra is first a human god (the Pharaoh), then a world god like Ptah in his giant form, and lastly a cosmic deity. The priests were evidently engaged in systematizing the theology of the sun cult. Ra, the sun, is shown to be greater than his father Nu; and a concession is made to the worshippers of Isis in the legend which credits Ra with imparting to her the powers she possessed. Horus is given recognition; he possesses himself of the "eyes" of Ra (the sun and moon). Thoth also, as Ah, has control of the moon. The result of the compromising process was to leave everything vague and even confused, but this greatness of Ra was made manifest."), Matter Manipulation (As a result of how Ra creates things in the myths, he had to have spoken matter into existence.

Now, mankind were born from his eye, and Ra, the Creator, who was ruler of the gods, became the first king upon earth. He went about among men; he took form like unto theirs, and to him the centuries were as years."]), Non-Physical Interaction (Can directly annihilate souls and spiritual realms if need be through simply a flood. Interacts with conceptual deifications like Ma'at on a regular basis) Summoning (Ra always summons his fellow gods to aid him in his battles with Apep due to Apep being his rival. He typically summons gods like Isis, Set, and multiple weaker gods.) Void Manipulation (In his Atum aspect he is confirmed to erase the world, reduce it to nothingness, a state of nonexistence which naturally includes the spirits and spiritual realms. "However, his creative nature has two sides. In the Book of the Dead, Atum tells Osiris that he will eventually destroy the world, submerging everything back into the primal waters (Nun), which were all that existed at the beginning of time. In this nonexistence, Atum and Osiris will survive in the form of serpents."), Order Manipulation (Is the creator of the concept of order, harmony, truth, and peace across the entirety of creation) Law Manipulation (The concept of Ma'at is the universal conceptual law that governs the mythos which he can freely utilize) Resurrection (As Khepri, Ra often returns from death fully revitalized and ready to continue fighting)

These great Cronos swallowed as each came forth from the womb to his mother's knees with this intent, that no other of the proud sons of Heaven should hold the kingly office amongst the deathless gods. For he learned from Earth and starry Heaven that he was destined to be overcome by his own son, strong though he was, through the contriving of great Zeus. 19 Therefore he kept no blind outlook, but watched and swallowed down his children: and unceasing grief seized Rhea. But when she was about to bear Zeus, the father of gods and men, then she besought her own dear parents, Earth and starry Heaven, to devise some plan with her that the birth of her dear child might be concealed, and that retribution might overtake great, crafty Cronos for his own father and also for the children whom he had swallowed down. And they readily heard and obeyed their dear daughter, and told her all that was destined to happen touching Cronos the king and his stout-hearted son. So they sent her to Lyetus, to the rich land of Crete, when she was ready to bear great Zeus, the youngest of her children. Him did vast Earth receive from Rhea in wide Crete to nourish and to bring up. Thither came Earth carrying him swiftly through the black night to Lyctus first, and took him in her arms and hid him in a remote cave beneath the secret places of the holy earth on thick-wooded Mount Aegeum; but to the mightily ruling son of Heaven, the earlier king of the gods, she gave a great stone wrapped in swaddling clothes. Then he took it in his hands and thrust it down into his belly: wretch! he knew not in his heart that in place of the stone his son was left behind, unconquered and untroubled, and that he was soon to overcome him by force and might and drive him from his honours, himself to reign over the deathless gods. After that, the strength and glorious limbs of the prince increased quickly, and as the years rolled on, great Cronos the wily was beguiled by the deep suggestions of Earth, and brought up again his offspring, vanquished by the arts and might of his own son, and he vomited up first the stone which he had swallowed last. And Zeus set it fast in the wide-pathed earth at goodly Pytho under the glens of Parnassus, to be a sign thenceforth and a marvel to mortal men. And he set free from their deadly bonds the brothers of his father, sons of Heaven whom his father in his foolishness had bound. And they remembered to be grateful to him for his kindness, and gave him thunder and the glowing thunderbolt and lightening: for before that, huge Earth had hidden these. In them he trusts and rules over mortals and immortals.")), Reality Warping (In Hesiod's Works and Days, Pandora and the Jar, lines 60-69: "So said the father of men and gods, and laughed aloud. And he bade famous Hephaestus make haste and mix earth with water and to put in it the voice and strength of human kind, and fashion a sweet, lovely maiden-shape, like to the immortal goddesses in face; and Athene to teach her needlework and the weaving of the varied web; and golden Aphrodite to shed grace upon her head and cruel longing and cares that weary the limbs. And he charged Hermes the guide, the Slayer of Argus, to put in her a shameless mind and a deceitful nature. So he ordered. And they obeyed the lord Zeus the son of Cronos. Forthwith the famous Lame God moulded clay in the likeness of a modest maid, as the son of Cronos purposed. And the goddess bright-eyed Athene girded and clothed her, and the divine Graces and queenly Persuasion put necklaces of gold upon her, and the rich-haired Hours crowned her head with spring flowers. And Pallas Athene bedecked her form with all manners of finery. Also the Guide, the Slayer of Argus, contrived within her lies and crafty words and a deceitful nature at the will of loud thundering Zeus, and the Herald of the gods put speech in her. And he called this woman Pandora (All Endowed), because all they who dwelt on Olympus gave each a gift, a plague to men who eat bread.".

In 'A History of Religious Ideas Vol. 1: "Consciousness of his omnipotence is admirably illustrated in the famous scene in the Iliad (8.17 ff.) in which Zeus makes this challenge to the Olympians: "Then [you] will see how far I am strongest of all the immortals. Come, you gods, make this endeavor, that you all may learn this. Let down out of the sky a cord of gold; lay hold of it all you who are gods and all who are goddesses, yet not even so can you drag down Zeus from the sky to the ground, not Zeus the high lord of counsel, though you try until you grow weary. Yet whenever I might strongly be minded to pull you, I could drag you up, earth and all and sea and all with you, then fetch the golden rope about the horn of Olympos and make it fast, so that all once more should dangle in mid air.

Before the rest he set flesh and inner parts thick with fat upon the hide, covering them with an ox paunch; but for Zeus he put the white bones dressed up with cunning art and covered with shining fat. Then the father of men and of gods said to him: “Son of Iapetus, most glorious of all lords, good sir, how unfairly you have divided the portions!” So said Zeus whose wisdom is everlasting, rebuking him. But wily Prometheus answered him, smiling softly and not forgetting his cunning trick: “Zeus, most glorious and greatest of the eternal gods, take which ever of these portions your heart within you bids." So he said, thinking trickery. But Zeus, whose wisdom is everlasting, saw and failed not to perceive the trick, and in his heart he thought mischief against mortal men which also was to be fulfilled."

And there were voices in all his dreadful heads which uttered every kind of sound unspeakable; for at one time they made sounds such that the gods understood, but at another, the noise of a bull bellowing aloud in proud ungovernable fury; and at another, the sound of a lion, relentless of heart; and at anothers, sounds like whelps, wonderful to hear; and again, at another, he would hiss, so that the high mountains re-echoed. And truly a thing past help would have happened on that day, and he would have come to reign over mortals and immortals, had not the father of men and gods been quick to perceive it. But he thundered hard and mightily: and the earth around resounded terribly and the wide heaven above, and the sea and Ocean's streams and the nether parts of the earth. Great Olympus reeled beneath the divine feet of the king as he arose and earth groaned thereat. And through the two of them heat took hold on the dark-blue sea, through the thunder and lightning, and through the fire from the monster, and the scorching winds and blazing thunderbolt. The whole earth seethed, and sky and sea: and the long waves raged along the beaches round and about, at the rush of the deathless gods: and there arose an endless shaking. Hades trembled where he rules over the dead below, and the Titans under Tartarus who live with Cronos, because of the unending clamour and the fearful strife. So when Zeus had raised up his might and seized his arms, thunder and lightning and lurid thunderbolt, he leaped form Olympus and struck him, and burned all the marvellous heads of the monster about him. But when Zeus had conquered him and lashed him with strokes, Typhoeus was hurled down, a maimed wreck, so that the huge earth groaned. And flame shot forth from the thunder- stricken lord in the dim rugged glens of the mount,26 when he was smitten. A great part of huge earth was scorched by the terrible vapour and melted as tin melts when heated by men's art in channelled27 crucibles; or as iron, which is hardest of all things, is softened by glowing fire in mountain glens and melts in the divine earth through the strength of Hephaestus.28 Even so, then, the earth melted in the glow of the blazing fire.

And Apollo, that worketh afar, drew nigh unto him, and said: "Hector, son of Priam, why is it that thou apart from the rest abidest here fainting? Is it haply that some trouble is come upon thee?" Then, his strength all spent, spake to him Hector of the flashing helm: "Who of the gods art thou, mightiest one, that dost make question of me face to face?

Whichever way he stood his gaze was fixed on Io—even if he turned away his watchful eyes on Io still remained. He let her feed by day; but when the sun was under the deep world he shut her up, and tied a rope around her tender neck. She fed upon green leaves and bitter herbs and on the cold ground slept—too often bare, she could not rest upon a cushioned couch. She drank the troubled waters. Hoping aid she tried to stretch imploring arms to Argus, but all in vain for now no arms remained; the sound of bellowing was all she heard, and she was frightened with her proper voice.

Such weapons by the skill of Cyclops forged, for different punishment he laid aside—for straightway he preferred to overwhelm the mortal race beneath deep waves and storms from every raining sky.". In Iliad, Book 8, Poseidon states: “Hera, you fearless talker, What are you saying? That’s not what I want, the rest of us to war on Zeus, son of Cronos. For he is much more powerful than us.” The two gods (with a charm) evoked Jupiter, who was forced to come down to earth at the Aventine (hence named Iuppiter Elicius, according to Ovid). After Numa skilfully avoided the requests of the god for human sacrifices, Jupiter agreed to his request to know how lightning bolts are averted, asking only for the substitutions Numa had mentioned: an onion bulb, hairs and a fish. Moreover, Jupiter promised that at the sunrise of the following day he would give to Numa and the Roman people pawns of the imperium. The following day, after throwing three lightning bolts across a clear sky, Jupiter sent down from heaven a shield. Since this shield had no angles, Numa named it ancile; because in it resided the fate of the imperium, he had many copies made of it to disguise the real one. Ovid's Metamorphoses Book 2, lines 272-319: "If the seas and lands together perish and thy palace fall, the universe confused will plunge once more to ancient Chaos. Save it from this wreck—if anything survive the fury of the flames.” So made the tortured Earth an end of speech; and she was fain to hide her countenance in caves that border on the nether night. But now the Almighty Father, having called to witness all the Gods of Heaven, and him who gave the car, that, else his power be shown, must perish all in dire confusion, high he mounted to the altitude from which he spreads the mantling clouds, and fulminates his dreadful thunders and swift lightning-bolts terrific.—Clouds were none to find on the earth, and the surrounding skies were void of rain.—Jove, having reached that summit, stood and poised in his almighty hand a flashing dart, and, hurling it, deprived of life and seat the youthful charioteer, and struck with fire the raging flames—and by the same great force those flames enveloping the earth were quenched, and he who caused their fury lost his life. Frantic in their affright the horses sprang across the bounded way and cast their yokes, and through the tangled harness lightly leaped. And here the scattered harness lay, and there the shattered axle, wrenched from off the pole, and various portions of the broken car; spokes of the broken Wheel were scattered round."), Environmental Destruction and Plant Manipulation (Though no complete account of Zeus and Hera's wedding exists, various authors make reference to it. According to a scholiast on Apollonius of Rhodes' Argonautica, Pherecydes states that when Zeus and Hera are being married, Gaia brings a tree which produces golden apples as a wedding gift. Eratosthenes and Hyginus attribute a similar story to Pherecydes, in which Hera is amazed by the gift, and asks for the apples to be planted in the "garden of the gods", nearby to Mount Atlas. Apollodorus specifies them as the golden apples of the Hesperides, and says that Gaia gives them to Zeus after the marriage), Statistics Reduction (In Hesiod's Catalogues, Fragment 91, Asclepius: But Hesiod (says that Apollo) would have been cast by Zeus into Tartarus; but Leto interceded for him, and he became bondman to a mortal), Reality Warping and Conceptual Manipulation alongside resistance to Dream Manipulation (Punishes beings like Ixion or even newly-made gods like Prometheus by binding him to a cliff, where an eagle constantly ate Prometheus's liver, which regenerated every night.

In Hesiod's Theogony, Book 1, Lines 383-404: "And Styx the daughter of Ocean was joined to Pallas and bare Zelus (Emulation) and trim-ankled Nike (Victory) in the house. Also she brought forth Cratos (Strength) and Bia (Force), wonderful children. These have no house apart from Zeus, nor any dwelling nor path except that wherein God leads them, but they dwell always with Zeus the loud-thunderer. For so did Styx the deathless daughter of Ocean plan on that day when the Olympian Lightener called all the deathless gods to great Olympus, and said that whosoever of the gods would fight with him against the Titans, he would not cast him out from his rights, but each should have the office which he had before amongst the deathless gods. And he declared that he who was without office and rights as is just. So deathless Styx came first to Olympus with her children through the wit of her dear father. And Zeus honoured her, and gave her very great gifts, for her he appointed to be the great oath of the gods, and her children to live with him always. And as he promised, so he performed fully unto them all. But he himself mightily reigns and rules."; also stopped Apollo's involuntary prophetic dreams. In Hesiod's Theogony, Book 1, Lines 410-453: "He gave her splendid gifts, to have a share of the earth and the unfruitful sea. She received honour also in starry heaven, and is honoured exceedingly by the deathless gods. For to this day, whenever any one of men on earth offers rich sacrifices and prays for favour according to custom, he calls upon Hecate. Great honour comes full easily to him whose prayers the goddess receives favourably, and she bestows wealth upon him; for the power surely is with her. For as many as were born of Earth and Ocean amongst all these she has her due portion. The son of Cronos did her no wrong nor took anything away of all that was her portion among the former Titan gods: but she holds, as the division was at the first from the beginning, privilege both in earth, and in heaven, and in sea. Also, because she is an only child, the goddess receives not less honour, but much more still, for Zeus honours her. Whom she will she greatly aids and advances: she sits by worshipful kings in judgement, and in the assembly whom she will is distinguished among the people. And when men arm themselves for the battle that destroys men, then the goddess is at hand to give victory and grant glory readily to whom she will. Good is she also when men contend at the games, for there too the goddess is with them and profits them: and he who by might and strength gets the victory wins the rich prize easily with joy, and brings glory to his parents. And she is good to stand by horsemen, whom she will: and to those whose business is in the grey discomfortable sea, and who pray to Hecate and the loud-crashing Earth-Shaker, easily the glorious goddess gives great catch, and easily she takes it away as soon as seen, if so she will. She is good in the byre with Hermes to increase the stock. The droves of kine and wide herds of goats and flocks of fleecy sheep, if she will, she increases from a few, or makes many to be less. So, then. albeit her mother's only child,17 she is honoured amongst all the deathless gods.

For now truly is a race of iron, and men never rest from labour and sorrow by day, and from perishing by night; and the gods shall lay sore trouble upon them. But, notwithstanding, even these shall have some good mingled with their evils. And Zeus will destroy this race of mortal men also when they come to have grey hair on the temples at their birth. The father will not agree with his children, nor the children with their father, nor guest with his host, nor comrade with comrade; nor will brother be dear to brother as aforetime. Men will dishonour their parents as they grow quickly old, and will carp at them, chiding them with bitter words, hard-hearted they, not knowing the fear of the gods. They will not repay their aged parents the cost their nurture, for might shall be their right: and one man will sack another's city. There will be no favour for the man who keeps his oath or for the just or for the good; but rather men will praise the evil-doer and his violent dealing.

Although these are separated in space, yet all things are made from them, and are resolved into them. Both the earth dissolving distils into flowing water; the water, too, evaporating, departs in the breezes and the air; its weight being removed again, the most subtle air shoots upwards into the fires of the æther on high. Thence do they return back again, and the same order is unravelled; for fire becoming gross, passes into dense air; this changes into water, and earth is formed of the water made dense. Nor does its own form remain to each; and nature, the renewer of all things, re-forms one shape from another. And, believe me, in this universe so vast, nothing perishes; but it varies and changes its appearance; and to begin to be something different from what it was before, is called being born; and to cease to be the same thing, is to be said to die. Whereas, perhaps, those things are transferred hither, and these things thither; yet, in the whole, all things ever exist.") and Nonexistent Physiology alongside Nonduality/Acausality (Type 3 nonduality and type 5 acausality along with type 2 NEP because Dario Sabbatucci has given a different interpretation of the meaning of Stator within the frame of his structuralist and dialectic vision of Roman calendar, identifying oppositions, tensions and equilibria: January is the month of Janus, at the beginning of the year, in the uncertain time of winter (the most ancient calendar had only ten months, from March to December).

My Ninurta, whose form Enki contemplates with favour, my Uta-ulu, lord, son of Enlil, what is to be done?"), Shapeshifting, Fire Manipulation, Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Supernatural Willpower, possible Statistics Amplification and resistance to Existence Erasure, Causality Manipulation and Fate Manipulation (The Sharur is described as tireless. From lines 96-224 of Ninurta's exploits: "96-118. The hero Ninurta led the march through the rebel lands. He killed their messengers in the mountains, he crushed (?) their cities, he smote their cowherds over the head like fluttering butterflies, he tied together their hands with hirin grass, so that they dashed their heads against walls. The lights of the mountains did not gleam in the distance any longer. People gasped for breath (?); those people were ill, they hugged themselves, they cursed the Earth, they considered the day of the Asag's birth a day of disaster. The lord caused bilious poison to run over the rebel lands. As he went the gall followed, anger filled his heart, and he rose like a river in spate and engulfed all the enemies. In his heart he beamed at his lion-headed weapon, as it flew up like a bird, trampling the mountains for him. It raised itself on its wings to take away prisoner the disobedient, it spun around the horizon of heaven to find out what was happening. Someone from afar came to meet it, brought news for the tireless one, the one who never rests, whose wings bear the deluge, the Šar-ur. What did it gather there …… for Lord Ninurta? It reported the deliberations of the mountains, it explained their intentions to Lord Ninurta, it outlined (?) what people were saying about the Asag. 119-121. "Hero, beware!" it said concernedly. The weapon embraced him whom it loved, the Šar-ur addressed Lord Ninurta: 122-134. "Hero, pitfall (?), net of battle, Ninurta, king, celestial mace …… irresistible against the enemy, vigorous one, tempest which rages against the rebel lands, wave which submerges the harvest, king, you have looked on battles, you have …… in the thick of them. Ninurta, after gathering the enemy in a battle-net, after erecting a great reed-altar, lord, heavenly serpent, purify your pickaxe and your mace! Ninurta, I will enumerate the names of the warriors you have already slain: the Kuli-ana, the Dragon, the Gypsum, the Strong Copper, the hero Six-headed Wild Ram, the Magilum Boat, Lord Saman-ana, the Bison Bull, the Palm-tree King, the Anzud bird, the Seven-headed Snake -- Ninurta, you slew them in the mountains." 135-150. "But lord, do not venture again to a battle as terrible as that. Do not lift your arm to the smiting of weapons, to the festival of the young men, to Inana's dance! Lord, do not go to such a great battle as this! Do not hurry; fix your feet on the ground. Ninurta, the Asag is waiting for you in the mountains. Hero who is so handsome in his crown, firstborn son whom Ninlil has decorated with numberless charms, good lord, whom a princess bore to an en priest, hero who wears horns like the moon, who is long life for the king of the Land, who opens the sky by great sublime strength, inundation who engulfs the banks ……, Ninurta, lord, full of fearsomeness, who will hurry towards the mountains, proud hero without fellow, this time you will not equal the Asag! Ninurta, do not make your young men enter the mountains." 151-167. The hero, the son, pride of his father, the very wise, rising from profound deliberation, Ninurta, the lord, the son of Enlil, gifted with broad wisdom, the …… god, the lord stretched his leg to mount the onager, and joined the battalions ……. He spread over the mountains his great long ……, he caused …… to go out among its people like the ……. He reached ……. He went into the rebel lands in the vanguard of the battle. He gave orders to his lance, and attached it …… by its cord; the lord commanded his mace, and it went to its belt. The hero hastened to the battle, he …… heaven and earth. He prepared the throw-stick and the shield, the mountains were smitten and cringed beside the battle legions of Ninurta. When the hero was girding on his mace, the sun did not wait, the moon went in; they were forgotten, as he marched towards the mountains; the day became like pitch. 168-186. The Asag leapt up at the head of the battle. For a club it uprooted the sky, took it in its hand; like a snake it slid its head along the ground. It was a mad dog attacking to kill the helpless, dripping with sweat on its flanks. Like a wall collapsing, the Asag fell on Ninurta, the son of Enlil. Like an accursed storm, it howled in a raucous voice; like a gigantic snake, it roared at the Land. It dried up the waters of the mountains, dragged away the tamarisks, tore the flesh of the Earth and covered her with painful wounds. It set fire to the reedbeds, bathed the sky in blood, turned it inside out; it dispersed the people there. At that moment, on that day, the fields became black scum, across the whole extent of the horizon, reddish like purple dye -- truly it was so! An was overwhelmed, crouched, wrung his hands against his stomach; Enlil groaned and hid himself in a corner, the Anuna flattened themselves against walls, the house was full of fearful sighing as of pigeons. The Great Mountain Enlil cried to Ninlil: 187-190. "My wife, my son is no longer here; what is there to support me? The lord, the authority of the E-kur, the king who imposes the strong shackle for his father, a cedar rooted in the abzu, a crown with broad shade, my son, my security -- he is not here any more: who will take me by the hand?" 191-214. The weapon which loved the lord, obedient to its master, the Šar-ur …… for Lord Ninurta to his father in Nibru ……. The awesome splendour enveloped Ninurta like a garment, ……. …… bound him: therefore the lord ……. The weapon …… spoke to Enlil. 215-224. "…… Ninurta, having confidence in himself; …… he will be standing; the waters will be dried up as if by the sun's heat; …… he will breathe again, he will be standing full of joy. I shall cause horrid storms to rise against …… of the hero Ninurta ……. …… as for him who resisted (?) the mountains, he has been amazed by his strength. Now I shall give my orders, you are to follow these instructions:" 1 line unclear "…… in the fields, let him not diminish the population. …… let him not cause a lack of posterity. Let him not cause to perish the name of all the kinds of species whose destinies I, Enlil, have decreed."), passive Madness Manipulation (Type 3 as in the Building of Ningirsu's Temple lines 983-989 "After the heavenly mitum mace had roared against the foreign lands like a fierce storm -- The Šarur, the flood storm in battle, the cudgel for the rebel lands -- after the lord had frowned at the rebellious land, the foreign country, hurled at his furious words, driven it insane") and resistance to Fear Manipulation and passive Madness Manipulation (Type 3; Ninurta casually fights the Asag who is described as "beyond all control" and wins) as well as passive Fate Manipulation and Causality Manipulation (In Babylonian sources, he fights the Anzu bird, a bird that can also control fate, and also wins)

On that fateful Day, Allah will tell our father Adam alayhi salam (peace be on him), “Send forth those who are destined for Hell”, and our father Adam will ask “Who are those?” And Allah (swt) will give a reply that is sure to tear at the hearts of every believer, “Out of every thousand, 999 go to Hell and 1 to paradise.” Fear Allah! Fear Allah for these numbers! The food of the people of Hell will be from the tree of Zaqqum, which will boil the intestines like scalding water. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ mentioned that if a drop of Zaqqum would have fallen on this Earth, it would ruin every provision on earth. Now, how about those who will have to eat from it? The drink of the inhabitants of hell will be boiling water, and a disgusting boiling fluid made of pus and blood. The least severe (in torment) of its levels – from which we seek refuge with Allah – was mentioned by the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in the Hadith reported by al-Nu’man ibn Bashir who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “The least severely punished of the people of Hell will be a man who has two shoes and shoelaces of Fire – according to another version: two live coals will be placed on the soles of his feet – because of which his brains will boil as a pot boils. He will not think that anyone is being punished more severely than him, but he will be the one who is punished most lightly.” (Narrated by al-Bukhari, 6562; Muslim, 212)

Indeed in the fire is a Zamhareer! When people boil from the heat of the fire, they flee towards Zamhareer. When they enter it , the cracking of their bones can be heard [due to the severe cold]. Zamhareer is a place people will not be able to withstand due to the severe cold.

Notable Summon[]
Ananta Shesha: The King of the Nagas who she can summon to help her with him holding an infinite number of planets and universes in his hood. He is a primal being of creation in Hinduism, being the king of all Nagas and an infinitely-large serpent said to reside in Purusha, the underworld, where he supports the cosmic egg containing the seven layers of the universe on his hood, being thus yet another instantiation of the motif of the "World Dragon" seen in many mythologies. He is always paired with Vishnu, which he is said to be an avatar and alter-ego of, being his protector who rests alongside him in the Sea of Milk, and holding a connection with the lotus flower growing out of his navel, from which Brahma, the God of Creation, is said to have been born. He is sometimes referred to as Ananta Shesha, "Endless-Shesha", or Adishesha, the "First Shesha". It is said that when Shesha uncoils, time moves forward and creation takes place; when he coils back, the universe ceases to exist. His name means "he who remains", from the Sanskrit root śiṣ, because even as the world is destroyed at the end of each kalpa, Shesha remains as he is. He can spawn anywhere from nine to a million heads. In the Story, he is the same as in myth, although he gives boons to those who he deems worthy which can include complete immortality, invincibility or the ability to control reality.
Notable Attacks[]
Stambha (स्तम्भः, Stambha): A column that functions as a bond, joining heaven (Svarga) and earth (Prithvi). A number of Hindu scriptures, including the Atharva Veda, feature references to stambhas. In the Atharva Veda, a celestial stambha has been described as an infinite scaffold, which supports the cosmos and material creation. Ashoka’s edicts were made on these Stambha.
Haalahala (हलाहल, Haraharu) is a lethal poison similar to inferno known as haalaahala has started to fulminate therefrom, by which the whole universe of gods, non-gods and humans is burnt down. Fourteen different ratnas (treasures) were recovered from this episode, which were distributed between the two clans. But before the amrita could be formed, Halāhala was produced, which started injuring both sides. As no one could bear the lethal fumes emitted by the poison, both the devas and the asuras began to collapse due to asphyxiation. Halahal ~ the great poison of Samudra-Manthan and was there to balance Amrit generated from Manthan. During the Sagar Manthan by the gods and demons, haalaa-hala, a pot of poison also came out of the ocean. This terrified the Gods and demons as the poison was so toxic that it effects would have wiped out the entire creation. A drop of halahal has equally opposite effect as a drop of Amrit has. A single drop of Amrit made Devtas immortal and a single drop of Halahal would have ended them all. It is said that it is capable in ending immortality of Devtas. The Halahal was so dangerous and powerful, just by mere contact with the poison made few asuras lose their lives, and all the Devas fainted and started to get perishable. So, halahal was the great poison of Samudra-Manthan and was there to balance Amrit generated from Manthan. A drop of halahal has the opposite effect as a drop of Amrit has. A single drop of Amrit made Devtas immortal and a single drop of Halahal would have ended them all. Now, when Samudra-Manthan was happening the mountain began to sink which then was supported by the turtle form of Shree Hari. Hari was now officially behind Samudra-Manthan and how can things which are directly related to God be destroyed. The Halahal was so dangerous and powerful, just by mere contact with the poison made few asuras lose their lives, and all the Devas fainted and started to get perishable. Then everyone requested the Mahadev, to save the entire Universe from getting extinct from the Halahal (poison) and spread into the atmosphere ( air pollution ) and would kill all the living beings. Or if the poison was in solid form, then Shiva's third eye power would convert it into ash. Even that ash if inhaled could cause harm. If the halahal poison is buried in the soil, it may cause the entire soil to get polluted, thus killing all the flora. The Halahal ash might travel from the soil into the ocean , and kill all the marine life. With the Kaal-Kuta Halahala (poison of death), the entire cosmos would have ceased to exist. It was a very strong poison that could have eradicated a lot of life. I think it is highly radioactive material. HalaHala is the most powerful poison in this entire multiverse. You can consider that as a composition of all the manifestations of poison in this whole multiverse. Like it is the darkness that can burn everything back to nothing. It is the absolute negative composition of Prakrithi(outcome, which is the ocean that Devas were churning) of source of manifestations. It is the ultimate Maaya. Who can control this now? The one who is beyond Prakrithi and so who is never affected in his body and mind whatsoever happens. That must be someone who has supreme consciousness. What is the form of supreme consciousness that is never unaffected by Maaya. Halahal vish” or diabolic poison, it was so poisonous that it started polluting entire environment. To prevent the destruction of environment, Lord Shiva drank it and held it in his throat, thus saving the world from its menacing effects. It was so poisonous that it would have destroyed any prakritik(natural) thing coming in contact with it. The entire Universe would have been Collapsed due to destructive effect of the Poison. As is said in Śrī Śiva Mahāpurāṇa, Śatarudra Saṃhita, Chapter 22: “For the protection of the gods, Śiva, favourably disposed towards his devotees, voluntarily retained the Kālakūṭa in his neck and held the moon on his forehead.” No deity could control or ensure that Halahal doesn't cause harm. Even Vishnu became blue while trying to contain the poison. Devas ran to Lord Shiva as He is the one and only God who can take on the might of anyone and anything because He reigns every heart with his awareness, the sense of being that “I AM”. The final jurisprudence rests with Him alone. He wanted to be known as Nilkanth lest his conquery over death could be questioned. He is the one known as Mrityunjaya and no one else. He wanted to save the universe and its diverse denizens from certain destruction before their prescribed longevity. He is shown as a destroyer but he destroys only the evil and perpetrators of evil. The power to protect was assumed by Him as Vishnu was temporarily incapacitated. The poison came from the mouth of Vasuki, the serpent who is adorning the neck of Shiva. Halahala, also known as Kalakoota, was a poison that was the first item to surface from the ocean bed. It was so lethal that it could have wrecked the universe.

Ryudo (Draconic Way of Destruction), is a set of techniques Tatsuryuu made as Sun Wukong which controls things like the natural world, physics, time or space for a variety of effects.
- “Ryudo 1: Soul Restrain.” - Restrains soul through binding
- “Ryudo 2: Draconic Binding!” She said, as gates appeared from nowhere, almost collapsing on top of him, as he then noticed a large blue wall of flames surrounding him
- “Ryudo 3: Draconic Mist” summons mist
- “Ryudo 6: Draconic Explosion” causes explosion
- In that case… Ryudo 7: Cause of Absolute Severance.” He said as the shrine was instantly cut in half, releasing its effect on Tatsuryuu immediately, as each of the priests managed to survive, as they then appeared in the real world. This technique rips cause and effect, severing any present effects. Kūkan Zero: Bōkyaku no Namida rips space by creating a sword.
- “Ryudo 8: Draconic Tree.” He thought to himself as the tree was instantly shrunk - summons a large tree that can absorb energy and bind targets.
Mido allows for Tatsuryuu to control all aspects of water
- “Mido 1: Raging Ocean’s Torrent.” Tatsuryuu thought to himself as the sphere of water blew into a storm, rushing towards Ashoka at the speed of sound (or that rushed towards his enemy at the speed of light) as it was pushed away, only to be devoured by water of its own.
- “Mido 2: Draconic Drilling Fang!” Ansen said as Tatsuryuu’s body still remained limp, as his body started to bear cuts on him for the first time ever
- “Mido 4: Smoke of Absolute Imperceptibility.” Tatsuryuu said as he disappeared from view.
Iwado allows for Tatsuryuu to control all aspects of Earth
She is shown controlling the earth with a stomp of her foot.
