Ash Manipulation

The ability to **manipulate burnt or charred matter**. Not to be confused with Soot Manipulation.

## Also Called

* Ash Control/Ashes Control
* Ashes Manipulation
* Tephrakinesis

## Capabilities

The user can generate and manipulate ash, defined as the solid remains of fires which, as already burnt matter, cannot be burned again, allowing the user to overwhelm fire-based powers. At the same time, it can contain residual heat, causing temperature-based damage.

## Applications

* Ash Attacks
* Ash Constructs
* Ash Generation
* Ash Solidification
* Capture/constrain and/or suffocate opponents via particle-sized ash.
* Fire Negation
* Heat Manipulation by controlling the residual heat within the ash.
* Manipulate the properties of ash.
* Move/lift ashes at nearly any speed whether in/on a surface, air or water. One could even do this in a vacuum of space if one has a way to survive the experience.
	+ Elemental Flight using ash.
	+ Matter Surfing by riding ashes.

## Limitations

* Water Manipulation: ash absorbs water and hardens.

* Air Manipulation: blow ashes away.
* May be unable to create ash, being limited to manipulating only from already existing sources.
* Distance, mass, precision, etc. depend upon of the knowledge, skill, and strength of the user, and their power's natural limits.
