Levels

• Peak Human Intelligence: Characters who demonstrate high reasoning ability, can master difficult concepts with few repetitions, and display high performance capability or notable mastery in intellectual or specific academic fields, which makes them equivalent to real-world experts in these areas.

• Enhanced Intelligence: Individuals with an exceptional capacity for knowledge and intelligence, usually in one area of varying depth. This level of intellect is the level of real-world geniuses, polymaths, and genuinely extremely prominent intellectuals, and, in the absence of better feats, should be the default intelligence category for fictional characters with exceptional or superhuman intelligence.

• Supernatural Intelligence: Individuals whose knowledge spreads over multiple fields of science and who vastly surpass the real world's upper human limits. At this level, many are capable of creating extremely advanced futuristic technology, executing complex strategies even under high pressure, outperforming supercomputers, and even accurately predicting the future through sheer mental calculations. This is where super scientists of exceptional scientific knowledge begin to appear.
  • Type I: Users can acquire and access vast levels of knowledge and ideas, they can outwit most beings in their verse and turn almost any situation in their favor. Users are able to effortlessly conquer any logical situation and invent technologies that can bend physics but may still be bound by the physical laws of their verse.
  • Type II: Users possess a quantum level of intelligence, acting similar to a quantum computer, they can access otherworldly knowledge and ideas and invent technologies that allow them to violate the laws of physics, alter reality and even access other dimensions such as the afterlife. They possess multi variative calculations that allow users to gain beyond logical results and conquer illogical situations in other dimensions.
  • Type III: This level of intelligence can allow users to defeat overwhelmingly stronger opponents through sheer mental power alone. They are able to outsmart some of the smart beings and cosmic entities in the universe but may not be able to with higher dimensional or existential entities. They can analyze and calculate from distinct perspectives that rely only on interactions and connections with effects. This allows users to comprehend virtually anything and everything and essentially gives them a form of precognition, allowing them to build technologies and sciences that are beyond the comprehension of lesser being and do things that were thought to be impossible and even indistinguishable from magic.
  • Type IV: Nigh-absolute intelligence, users are one of if not the smartest beings in their verse and have fathomless intellect that is incomprehensible to all lesser beings. They are able to analyze and calculate objects that are not dependent on one another, this type of intelligence works as free logic, without needing direct connections, which allows users to comprehend things that do not react with other systems or properties. However, despite all its capabilities, it is still nowhere near absolute intelligence.

• Absolute Intelligence: The highest level of non-omniscient intellect, possessed by individuals with unfathomably superhuman intelligence who are capable of creating impossibly advanced physics-defying and reality-warping fantasy technology for enormously diverse purposes. This is the greatest, most supreme level of intellect a being can attain, being both the complete accumulation and boundless mastery of all facets of intelligence, cognition, logical reasoning, and thinking. The user can instinctively create an infinite number of intricate schemes, strategies, tactics, and plans that will never fail and countermeasures for complete adaptation to any form of change that befalls any situation. From this the users will be able to do things that are considered impossible like conquering the multiverse, stealing a nigh-omnipotent entities powers, predicting outcomes of chaotic situations and much, much more.

• Nigh-Omniscience: The user knows almost everything in existence while being blocked from certain details or being limited in other ways, possibly only being able to see one timeline or universe, or have just small patches of information that are missing or blocked out. Thus allowing one to keep their sense of free will and uncertainty.

• Omniscience: The state of having all knowledge, or in other words, knowing everything. A character that is omniscient knows everything that their opponent is going to do before they do it, and exactly what to do to win any fight. The user's mind is unblocked or unconstrained to knowledge of the entirety of totality, there's absolutely nothing which they do not understand or insightfully comprehend, knowing every answer to every inquiry on a timeless scale, meaning it is regardless of time; their recollection of infinite knowledge offers an understanding of the intricacies or "workings" of totality.

Associations

• Normal Folk
• Peak Human Body
  • Peak Human Mind
• Superior Human Physiology
• Top-Heavy Body

Limitations

• This ability is not superhuman.
• Users would not be able to outsmart enhanced or supernatural intelligent foes, except psychologically. Those that have absolute intelligence, however, are totally impossible to outsmart.
• Users of this ability are still susceptible to mistakes.
• May require studying various subjects, although the duration of study would be much shorter for users of this power.
