Shinsoo

==Summary==
Shinsoo is a substance that flows through the Tower. Each Floor has areas of varying amounts of shinsoo density, increasing with each Floor. In lower concentrations, its density makes the substance act like a gas, but in higher concentrations, it behaves like a liquid.
At different times, shinsoo can take on the properties of water, fire, air or light etc. Shinsoo has an endless list of variations. As it can be so many different things, nothing can be singled out to define Shinsoo or to assign it to a special property. Shinsoo is the "basis of all energy".
Since High concentrated shinsoo is so powerful, every contestant in the tower uses shinsoo to fight, this is called Shinsoo manipulation.
==Shinsoo Manipulation==
===Standard Shinsoo Abilities===
The standard abilities granted through shinsoo control to all Regulars and Tower's dwellers are:
*Longevity: The Tower's dwellers using shinsoo can live for a few centuries, while the Regulars can live easily and exceed a thousand years old and more.
*Statistics Amplification: Shinsoo can be used to increase the power, durability and speed of the user's body.
*Pain Manipulation: Shinsoo causes immense pain to the opponent if large amounts of shinsoo are collected in one place;
*Limited Self-Sustenance (Type 2): Anyone who can use shinsoo can pass prolonged amount of time without eating by gaining energy from shinsoo itself, although it can put a toll in their health.
*Healing: SIU stated that through shinsoo, its users can heal themselves or others with it.
===Average Shinsoo Abilities===
The average abilities are guaranteed through the shinsoo control of individuals with considerable affinity with shinsoo, although they can be considered normal powers, not all Regulars have them, some of them are:
*Minor Matter Immobilization: Depending on how much shinsoo can be controlled against the enemy, the user is able to hinder the walk of the opponent.
*Energy Manipulation/Energy Density: By controlling shinsoo, the people can control its very high density.
*Homing Attack: Shinsoo users can control the direction their shinsoo should go without looking directly at the target.
*Danmaku: Shinsoo users can create multiple baangs that can attack omnidirectionally.
*Forcefield Creation: The users are able to create barriers with shinsoo.
===Advanced Shinsoo Abilities===
Some of the advanced abilities guaranteed to people who become Rankers, High Rankers and a few exceptions of Regulars that have certain intensive training are:
*Immortality (Type 1): The people who become Rankers end up creating a much greater affinity with shinsoo, then obtaining the eternal youth.
*Molecular Immobilization/Paralysis Inducement: The users are able to reverse shinsoo flow, which eventually stop its opponent movement.
*Accelerated Development (Passive): The users end up gaining the ability to get stronger as they get older over time.
===Specific Shinsoo Abilities===
These are specific abilities that, for example, the Regulars may possess, but certain Rankers and High Rankers may not or vice-versa, some of them are: 
*Limited Vibration Manipulation: The users can cause vibrations in the body of his target through the shock of shinsoo.
*Limited Durability Negation: The users can cause explosions that happen inside the body using the Piercing Techniques, so they ignore conventional durability;
==Shinsoo Resistance==
The capacity to deal with high concentration of shinsoo is called shinsoo resistance, since even the surrounding concentration of shinsoo could hinder your moves if your shinsoo resistance is lower than it. 
*Resistance to Energy Manipulation/Energy Density (Advanced Rankers, Rankers and most Regulars are highly resistant to shinsoo, which is a very high density energy)
*Resistance to Minor Matter Immobilization (Advanced Rankers, Rankers and most Regulars are able to walk in highly dense shinsoo areas that would make it difficult to move in for normal people)
*Resistance to Pain Manipulation (Advanced Rankers, Rankers and most Regulars can easily resist the effects of shinsoo, even on higher floors)
*Resistance to Elemental Manipulation: Shinsoo is able to change into a myriad of forms, including:
**Light Manipulation: One of the forms shinsoo takes.
**Darkness Manipulation: One of the forms shinsoo takes.
**Fire Manipulation and Extreme Heat: One of the forms shinsoo takes.
**Water Manipulation: One of the forms shinsoo takes.
**Possibly Air Manipulation: Although shinsoo is explicitly not air, it replaces air within the tower.
**Electricity Manipulation: One of the forms shinsoo takes.
**Ice Manipulation: One of the forms shinsoo takes.
* Resistance to Mind Manipulation (Advanced Rankers, Rankers and characters of their level were stated to be able to resist techniques that can control the minds of normal people and Regulars)
*Likely Resistance to Sense Manipulation (Advanced Rankers, Rankers and characters of their level are stated to be probably capable of resisting Charlie's White Noise, which can turn all the five senses of his target into a white daze)
*Resistance to Disease Manipulation (Advanced Rankers, Rankers, members of the 10 Great Families and characters of their level are stated to be immune to most of the diseases, and they aren't seriously affected by the diseases that they aren't resistant, and even so, they don't need medication to recover from these specific diseases)
Note: Regulars that aren't members of the 10 Great Families don't scale to have Resistance to Disease Manipulation.
===High Shinsoo Resistance===
Some of the resistance granted by the strong shinsoo resistance of a few, mostly being High Rankers. 
*Same as before on a heightened scale.
*Improved Resistance to Mind Manipulation (High Rankers are unfazed by powerful mind control techniques that can affect Rankers, thus making High Rankers and those scaling to them have 1 layer of resistance)
*Resistance to Biological Modification (Baylord Doom states that he can easily transform people with low shinsoo resistance into canine people, implying higher shinsoo resistance would be harder)
*Resistance to Corrosion Inducement (High Rankers are able to resist Unleashed True Self Mode Baam's black shinsoo, which possess corrosive attributes)
*Resistance to Acid Manipulation (High Rankers are unaffected by the Workshop's Boiling Acid, which is capable of fully dissolving living beings, and extremely potent acids are needed to be effective)
*Resistance to Poison Manipulation (Extremely potent poison is needed to be effective on High Rankers)
