Metal Manipulation

The power to **manipulate metal**. Variation of Earth Manipulation. Not to be confused with Magnetism Manipulation.

## Also Called

* Ferrokinesis
* Ferrous Control/Manipulation
* Metal Bending/Control
* Metallic Control/Manipulation
* Metal Element Control
* Metallokinesis

## Capabilities

The user can create, shape and manipulate metal, a solid material (an element, compound, or alloy) that is typically hard, shiny, and features good electrical and thermal conductivity. Metals are generally malleable—they can be hammered or pressed permanently out of shape without breaking or cracking—as well as fusible (able to be fused or melted) and ductile (able to be drawn out into a thin wire).

## Applications

* Ferrokinetic Constructs
* Manipulate the properties of metals.
	+ Polish metals.
	+ Repair metal objects.
* Metal Attacks
* Metal Detection
* Metal Dust Manipulation
* Metal Generation
* Metal Solidification
* Move/lift metal.
	+ Elemental Flight using metal.
	+ Matter Surfing by riding metallic objects.

## Techniques

* Burying
* Casting Beam

## Associations

* Architecture Manipulation
* Bullet Manipulation
* Cold Manipulation - metals are cold due to conducting heat away.
* Conductivity Manipulation - metals are excellent conductors of heat, electricity, and sound.
* Corrosion Manipulation
* Earth Manipulation
* Electron Manipulation - metals contain free-flowing electrons.
	+ Electromagnetism Manipulation
* Furniture Manipulation
* Gun Manipulation
* Jewelry Manipulation
* Matter Manipulation by affecting the metallic particles in the non-metallic objects.
* Magma Manipulation
* Magnetic Skin
* Magnetism Manipulation though only metals that are magnetic
* Metal Morphing
* Mineral Manipulation
* Technology Manipulation
* Weapon Manipulation

As one of the Chinese Five Elements, metal is associated with:

* Autumn Manipulation
* Old Prime
* Venus

## Limitations

* May be unable to create metal, being limited to manipulating only from already existing sources.
* Distance, mass, precision, etc. depend upon the knowledge, skill, and strength of the user and their power's natural limits.
* May be limited to certain metals.
* Metal is affected by everything that normal metals would be, although the user is perfectly able to use their power to return the metal to its original shape and/or controlling it even under these forces:
	+ Melt under extreme heat (Fire Manipulation or Magma Manipulation).
	+ Turn brittle and shatter under extreme cold (Freezing).
	+ Can be rusted (Water Manipulation or Rust Manipulation).
* User may be limited to manipulating the metal which makes up their bodies.
* Extremely vulnerable to Electricity Manipulation as metal conduct electrically.
* May be weak against Magnetism Manipulation, although some metals (such as gold) are not magnetic.
* If it derives from Earth Manipulation, the user may only be able to manipulate the earth within metals; pure or refined metals would be nearly or entirely impossible to manipulate.
