Authority

is a classification of special abilities possessed by the likes of Divine Spirits and the agents of the World like True Ancestors and Great Mother/Father class Fairies.Fate/Grand Order - Fae Round Table Domain: Avalon le Fay - Chapter 4 Section 2 - Oberon's fairy explanation, translated by You 
==Characteristics==
Authorities are an ability of category unique from the likes of Codecasts, Skills, and Noble Phantasms. They are on the level of creating a World, including event shifting, time-flow manipulation, and kingdom-building, among others. While normal Skills "achieve a certain result based on some logical process or principle," Authorities "realize a result simply because the user has the right to do so."
The usage of Authorities existed primarily within the Age of Gods six thousand years before the modern day. As of the Common Era, the advancement of human civilization has rendered Authorities unnecessary, rendering them a relic of the prior age. Divine Spirit Servants possess their Authorities, but the usage of their Authorities in the Common Era requires compensation in the way of strain and damage inflicted on them. Those that gain full control over the Moon Cell reach a level of power that is Authority class.
Authorities used by beings like True Ancestors, the "Planet's sense of touch," are classified as a "system" rather than a "skill."Tsukihime -A piece of blue glass moon- - Rainbow in the Night route - True End - Day 14: "Stone without End" The of the Twelve Machine Gods are similar to Authorities and are referred to as such.
