Power System

The Lemniscate series has an extremely in-depth and complex power system. This article will cover all canonical battle mechanics seen in the series.

## Magic

Magic is a type of combat power that has been used in the The Tale of the Infinity Realm, Bipole, and The Neville Prophecy.

### Mana

Magic is the conjuration of spells using mana. Mana is a type of energy that naturally generates within all organic entities (called Magica in the first three TTOTIR books). All races, excluding humans, in the Lemniscate series can naturally manipulate their mana. However, humans can manipulate their mana to conjure spells if they are borrowing power from a higher entity (such as the Gods or the High Gods), as seen with Fulvus in Azure Heavens and Canvas in Finis 2300.

### Magic Types

Magic is split into four main categories: Projectiles, Devices, Helpers, and Modifiers.

#### Projectiles

Projectiles are spells that create short-use items, often elemental objects. Projectiles do not have to be moving objects, though they usually are. Projectiles cannot be move on their own after they are initially summoned.

#### Devices

Devices are spells that create long-use items, usually weapons. Devices do not move on their own. Devices usually do not drain mana while being used.

#### Helpers

Helpers are spells that create long-use items, usually a humanoid, Helpers can be remotely controlled by the summoner but usually drain Mana while being used.

#### Modifiers

Modifiers are spells that modify the properties of entities, objects, or other spells. Modifiers usually drain Mana while being used.

#### Buildups

Buildups are "sub-spells" of other spells. Buildups are not always the same base magic type as their parent spell but almost always require the parent spell to be learned first.

### Magic Elements

Magic is also split into eighteen different elements, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. In The Tale of the Infinity Realm Quaternate, each elements user has different affinities towards different elements depending on their primary element type (which usually cannot be changed).

### Magica

Magica is the physical manifestation of Mana energy, seen only in The Tale of the Infinity Realm. In the first three TTOTIR books Magica and Mana are both called Magica.

#### Basic Magica

Magica is a physical material made by converting Mana energy into a physical form. Though this has it uses, mostly in defense, it is usually more efficient to cast a spell. Creating Magica requires an immense amount of Mana energy, with the energy use being more efficient towards elements you have affinities for. Magica does not have any sentience, nor does it contain life energy.

#### Blight's Dark Magica

Blight's Dark Magica is an extremely important and poorly explained mechanic of the power system that is heavily used in Termination. Blight's Dark Magica is different from normal Dark Magica in that it actively seeks out destruction of things that are not made out of it. Having contact with Blight's Dark Magica is usually lethal. Surviving an attack from Blight's Dark Magica can grant you an affinity towards the Dark element and can make you more resistant to Blight's Dark Magica in the future.

Blight's Dark Magica can also be semi-sentient as seen in Blight's Shadow Entities.

## Geom Energy

Appearing exclusively in The Neville Prophecy, Geom Energy is a type of energy that can be manipulated by Nolavillians and Xuirs. In THOTNP, Geom Energy is explained to be "the sequel to kinetic energy".

### Disintegration

In THOTNP, Manga Neville is seen disintegrating opponents using Geom Energy. While not much is known about this property of Geom Energy, this is shown to be a strong attack as the only survivor of it was N'loud.

### Weapon Infusion

Geom Energy can be infused with weapons to create stronger attacks. This first seen when Sir Oats III used his Geom Grapple in THOTNP. This was also an important part of the plot when Manga Neville defeated Neville ZX without clacking his Geom Medals.

## Tractors

Tractors are an summonable entity that Nolavillians, Xuirs, and Bipolians can use. Though they require certain conditions to happens before unlocking the ability to summon them, they can *usually* be summoned anytime afterwards. Each tractor usually has its own unique ability.

### Hot Glue Gun

Hot Glue Gun is a Neville ZX's tractor and appears in THOTNP, where it is controlling Nolmech. Hot Glue Gun is a tractor that can possess and control electronic technology. It's true form only appears in the Neville Fighters.

### Speedy Boat

Speedy Boat is Cayanne's tractor and has the power to move a extremely high speeds. It also has the power to active Cayanne's Alg Form.

### Third Strike

Third Strike is N'loud's tractor, which he awakens after his first battle with Manga Neville. Third Strike attaches onto a target, which it can attack or drain Geom Energy from. If N'loud manages to successfully summon his sword thrice in a row, Third Strike will freeze time for a few seconds for everyone expect for N'loud.

### Integer

Integer is Xuir Man's tractor, which does not attack anyone directly. Integer can remove or transport parts of Xuir Man's body across short distances.

### Rock Launcher

Rock Launcher is Sheeza Zeppz's tractor. It is a mortar that slowly fires powerful rocks. Unliked most other tractors, Rock Launcher cannot be controlled from a distance; it must be physically controlled.

### Plot Armor

Plot Armor is Manga Neville's tractor and can only be activated when Manga Neville is heavily wounded. Plot Armor increases Manga Neville's strength, defense, and Geom Energy.

### Shadow Xuir

Shadow Xuir is J-Xuir's tractor, activated once he reached the Red Jacket. Shadow Xuir is a shadowed copy of J-Xuir with it's own personality.

## Alg Formation

Only seen in The Neville Prophecy, Alg Forms are a temporary transformation that makes the user stronger. To achieve an Alg Form, one must complete a unique task that is different for every person. Some examples for tasks are using your tractor (Cayenne) and witnessing death (Xuir Man).

### Powers

While some Alg Forms only increase the strength of a user (such as Person's), other Alg Forms grant additional powers to the user (such as Cayenne's and N'loud's).

#### Cayenne

Cayenne's Alg Form allows Cayenne to use a powerful sound attack called Diss Track. His Alg Form also allows him to fly.

#### N'loud

N'loud's Alg Form allows him to summon the Summoning Blade. This is used to active his Third Strike's timestop.

### Xuir Man

Xuir Man's Alg Form allows him to use Soulfire Uppercut, an extremely powerful uppercut move. The true power of this move is currently unknown.

#### Manga Neville

Manga Neville's Alg Form is activated upon dying and will revive him once. It will also activate his ability to use his Tractor.

## Ultimate Life Transfer (ULTs)

Ultimate Life Transfer, also know as ULTs or Ultimates, are a special type of attack that is only seen in *Bipole R-XIX: Quest*.

### Life Energy

Life Energy is a type of energy that is in every living entity, as confirmed in TTOTIR Termination. Although ULTs are only seen in Bipole, Life Energy is in both Bipole and The Tale of the Infinity Realm.

According to a conversation between Sulfur and Radio Affix, Central City has laws against extracting Life Energy.

### Using Life Energy

In TTOTIR, there are some Unique Spells that manipulate Life Energy. However, only Biplians can naturally manipulate Life Energy. This act of manipulating Life Energy is done through using the Ultimate Life Transfer.

ULTs generate Life Energy by collecting excess Life Energy while fighting. Once enough excess Life Energy is collected, it is used to perform a powerful ULT move.

## Artifacts

Artifacts are special objects created by higher entities (typically Nexters) and placed into the mortal Realmer universe.

### Holy Itucher

The Holy Itucher is a powerful weapon that was obtained by the Shadow Realm Research Lab during the Altarian Slaughter, and later by Quest and Proton Xurr during the Xuir Liberation in *Bipole IV: Liberation of Xuir*, The weapon will posses those without a powerful will. The only two characters shown using it without being corrupted are Break Noitcnuf and Repins Blaze, both in alternate endings of *Bipole IV: Liberation of Xuir*,

### System Stones

The System Stones are a group of stones that have special abilities. All of the stones originate from System 0, though the Holy Stone was taken to the Sun System by New Link in *The Tale of the Infinity Realm III: Conquest*.

#### Transport Stones

The Transport Stones are a group of stones that grant the ability to traverse between the four planets in the System 0. The Transport Stones were also used to power to Transportation Stations from *The Tale of the Infinity Realm Expedition*.

#### Holy Stone

The Holy Stone is the only one of the System Stones to be in the Sun System. It was used by the Megalo Counter Squad to travel into the future, as foretold in the Solar Prophecy. The Holy Stone was used by Acrylon to create the Traveler.

#### Flash Stone

The Flash Stone is the stone that was used by Cryo to travel back in time to the events of *The Tale of the Infinity Realm Expedition*. This is also the stone that was used to travel between Sprit Tower and The Ruins of the Stratosphere by Eclipse and Infinity. The true nature of this stone is unknown, as its two uses are vastly different. It is possible that this stone's purpose is to guide society forwards, similarly to the Holy Stone.

#### Shadow Stone

The Shadow Stone is the System Stone that Hydro used at the end of *The Tale of the Infinity Realm Expedition* to summon Blight, though its name was unknown until Blight mentioned it in *The Tale of the Infinity Realm II: Termination*. It was used to collect and convert magica into Blight's Dark Magica in The Tale of the Infinity Realm New Revival, as well as the stone being used by Lumio to seal Blight. The stone was eventually unable to contain Blight, resulting in the stone shattering and Porta sacrificing himself. Somehow, the stone was restored and collected by the Hepta and given to Hydro and Eon prior to the events of The Tale of the Infinity Realm Expedition.

### Solar Prophecy

The Solar Prophecy is a the prophecy from the Sun System that led the Megalo Counter Squad to System 0. The prophecy's purpose is to prevent the destruction of life and light.

### Holy Cards

The Holy Cards, sometimes referred to as the Holy Deck, are a deck of cards that each have powerful abilities. They were originally discovered by Legenro and passed down to his pupils until Biphero sealed the cards in the Labyrinth of Binding. Protipole recovers the cards in *Bipole V: Dungeons of Biphero*, but the Card of Death was stolen by New Link.

### Card of Death

The Cards of Death are three special cards found in the Holy Deck that will strengthen the power of someone's Unique Spell. The card was originally discovered by New Link, who gave one to Neuro Megalo. Neuro later gave the card to Iron for an assassination mission, who lost the card to Radio Affix after being defeated in *The Tale of the Infinity Realm III: Conquest*.
