Capabilities

Users have the capacity to be aware that their Universe is false. Through this, they may be able to carry out acts that, within the Universe, would otherwise be impossible. Depending on the extent of the user's power, one could potentially gain the powers of Reality Warping and/or Omniscience within the context of their own false Universe.

Limitations

• People that use this ability may appear to be abnormal to every one else, and it may be difficult at times to hide the fact that you have this ability. Coupled with their potential influx of wild information, users have an increased likelihood of being driven completely insane.
