Light Manipulation

The power to **manipulate light**. Opposite to Darkness Manipulation.

## Also Called

* Ictiokinesis
* Light/Photon Arts
* Light Element Control
* Lumen (*The Lorien Legacies*)
* Lumokinesis/Luminokinesis
* Photokinesis
* Haos *(Bakugan)*
* Photon Manipulation
* Visible Light Manipulation
* Visible Radiation Manipulation

## Capabilities

The user can create, shape and manipulate visible light, commonly referred to as light, is electromagnetic radiation that is visible to the human eye, and is responsible for the sense of sight.

Primary properties of visible light are intensity, propagation direction, frequency or wavelength spectrum, and polarization, while its speed in a vacuum (299,792,458 meters per second/186,000 MPS) is one of the fundamental constants of nature. Visible light, as with all types of electromagnetic radiation (EMR), is experimentally found to always move at this speed in a vacuum.

In common with all types of EMR, visible light is emitted and absorbed in tiny "packets" called photons and exhibits properties of both waves and particles. This property is referred to as the wave–particle duality. The study of light, known as optics, is an important research area in modern physics.

* Twilight Manipulation when combined with Darkness Manipulation.
* Vision Manipulation - light grants the sense of sight.

## Limitations

* Photokinetic Immunity
* May be unable to create light, being limited to manipulating only from already existing sources.
* Distance, energy mass, precision, etc. depend upon the knowledge, skill, and strength of the user, and their power's natural limits.
* Users light is affected by everything that all light is, unless they are powerful/skilled enough to overcome these limits:
	+ Glass Manipulation and/or Reflection Manipulation bounces back by a reflective surface.
	+ Gravity Manipulation bends light.
	+ No matter how powerful the light is, it will pass through anything completely transparent.
* Could be overwhelmed by Darkness Manipulation.
* Since light is a constantly existing element, the user will have to keep any light constructs in check to keep them from going on forever.
* Weak against Light Boundary/Light Absorption.
