Capabilities
The user’s speed is at the highest limit of human potential. They are much faster than Olympic class runners. As they can get up to speeds of 45 to 65 kph (30-40 mph). They are able to swim at speed of up to 20 knots.
This speed allows the user to be significantly faster than other humans. They are able to chase/outrun wolves, racehorses, and catch up with vehicles. They are fast enough to run on walls for certain periods of time, sprint across small bodies of water, and even move fast enough to appear to teleport short distances or disappear from the eyes of an observer.
They can take down small groups of people in seconds before they can react. They can dodge bullets fired at point-blank ranges and outrun horizontally moving lines of gunfire coming from rapid-fire weapons, such as machine guns.

Levels
- Peak Human Speed - Users can move as fast as humanly possible. They can reach a level of speed as fast as 45 km/h - 65 km/h. They are as fast as moving vehicles like cars/trucks/rapid transit trains and wild animals and are fast enough to dodge projectiles and run on walls.
- Enhanced Speed - Users can move at superhuman speed, 66 - 1235 kph, making it very difficult for one to be able to react to them. The users of this ability are also very resistant or even outright immune to the side effects of moving at such speeds.
- Supernatural Speed - User can move blatantly faster than other people in their universe, reaching into high superhuman territory.
- Type I: Users can move at a speed of 189-405 kph, subsonic speed. They can move faster than the eye can see.
- Type II: Users can move at a speed of 617 - 6174 kph, beyond supersonic speed and reaching hypersonic speed at their fastest.
- Type III: Users can move at a speed of 6175 - 1.0793e+7 kph, beyond hypersonic speed and reaching relativistic speed at their fastest.
- Type IV: Users can move at a speed of 3.353e+8 - 6.706e+8 mph, faster than relativistic speed. They can move near, at, or beyond the speed of light.
- Type V: Users can move faster than the speed of light (6.706e+8 - nigh infinite.)
- Type VI: Users have infinite speed. They are able to travel any finite distance in zero time, or move an infinite distance within a finite amount of time. Teleportation does not count.
- Absolute Speed: Users move in a manner unbound from linear time, rendering the standard speed formula (S = D/T) inapplicable as time is no longer a defined variable. Unlike infinite speed which reduces time to zero, immeasurable speed operates outside of time as a dimension entirely. As a consequence, users may exist acausally - the directional flow of time no longer applies to their movement.
Limitations
- Users' speed is not classified as Enhanced Speed.
- May be easily defeated by beings with Supernatural Speed, while users of Absolute Speed can defeat them without a problem.
- Users are vulnerable to others that own either Speed Cancellation, or Speed Theft.
- Users are vulnerable against Gravity Manipulation due to the change in body weight.
- Like all physical powers a user will usually slow down and become less effective with age (starting in mid-30s or so, in most verses) unless they are an Old Prime or have some other superhuman ability to counter the ageing process.
