Story-Breaker Power	comment	A question writers should ask themselves when deciding which (if any) superpowers to give any character is "Which and how strong a set of powers does a character need in order for this story to be entertaining?" This is because many times characters begin or end up having powers that in the hands of a competent and reasonably intelligent protagonist would allow them to handily solve a plot. Plot complications, the Sorting Algorithm of Evil and the Sliding Scale of Villain Threat would be incapable of dealing with this character... at least not without drastically changing the setting or the story's tone. This is a common problem for sequels of works that end with the protagonist unlocking their full power. Once they get too much power, they win the Superpower Lottery and become godlike, or worse, Suelike. On the other hand, a simple or limited power can lead to viewers asking "Why don't they just use his power of X to do Y and stop the bad guy/get the MacGuffin?" In order to challenge the protagonist the writers will have to ramp up the villain's power, find a way to otherwise remove or sideline them, depower them or at least reduce it to more reasonable levels, take away their weapons, make the power come at a price, or give them a Drama-Preserving Handicap of some sort (see also Kryptonite Is Everywhere). Otherwise, the character will be Too Powerful to Live. The easiest way to tell if this trope is in effect is when the writer resorts to handing the protagonist the Idiot Ball and Forgot About His Powers to keep the character from using their powers in a straightforward way. Another good sign of this trope affecting the setting is if over time, it seems as though the character's abilities and competence can suddenly fluctuate in a non-intuitive way depending on the plot. If for instance a character, with all their Super-Strength, is often shown being able to stop calamities like falling buildings but is suddenly shown to struggle dealing with the villain's Mooks, this trope is likely at work. Power Creep, Power Seep works similarly, but specifically kicks in when the character is an alternate setting/timeline or is being handled by a different author, and their usual capabilities would break the story intended for them. On a bit of a tangent, there's a reason why this trope applies mostly to protagonists; we expect the Big Bad to have a nigh unbeatable edge and get beaten nonetheless, giving us a typical underdog story. Though this isn't to say it's good for a villain to have a Story-Breaker Power, because they run the risk of becoming a Villain Sue, or being glued to the Villain Ball to keep them from killing the hero and accomplishing their goals in short order. This is why most stories with such villains focus on stopping them from actually getting these powers.

He was also a collector of intelligence and knowledge on the Trident of Atlantis and previous hunts for it. To keep him from overshadowing our protagonists in their fight, Vulko is kept as a peaceful man who relies on diplomacy and doesn't retaliate even when pushed, only serving the plot by serving as Mr. Exposition about the Trident. When he's freed from imprisonment at the climax, he makes the deliberate choice to let Arthur handle the final battle alone.

Story-Breaker Power / int_1367cea0	comment	From the Worm/Heroes crossover fanfic Skittering Thief : The fic shows how devastating a power like Arthur Petrelli's can really be when it's the protagonist who has them. Taylor's ability to permanently steal the powers of others makes every cape around utterly terrified of her regardless of whether they are a villain or not. She starts off with only a few powers taken from a few capes mostly by accident, but by the end has absorbed so many powers she's able to fight off Endbringers by herself and survive. The only one more feared than her is Sylar, but even then that only lasts up until she absorbs the power of an Endbringer. By the end, Taylor has gained so many by one mean or another that she all but claims to have become God, and seeing as she has taken powers from all twenty Endbringer, Eden's corpse and then Scion itself, along with the intent to absorb every other member of its kind, she has a pretty good claim. To a lesser extent, the Heroes-verse powers in general are pretty devastating in the universe of Worm. They come off as far simpler in practice, but far more effective in use since they don't come without drawbacks. The power that really makes the difference in the final battle is Claire's regeneration. As it's a healing power far greater than anything either Scion or Eden ever had and can be used without expending energy... and the power that lets Taylor beat the entity without any effort.

The Barkeep has it much of the series, and the only reason why he does not use it to solve problems with the snap of his fingers is because his wife forbids him from using it in his place, leaving Sparks Nevada or the others usually fix the situation without his help. That said, he does sometimes bend the rules a bit, such as by using the powers outside his place and on other, far away planets.

Literally everything that happens in the plot comes directly or indirectly from the use of this power, and Anne was forced to put all sorts of restrictions on it in order for there to be a plot at all. For starters, the elder line of Slytherin (from which Voldemort descends) has lost this power entirely and the younger line has no living heirs for most of the story, rendering Alexander Slytherin the only one with this power. And Alexander is limited in the amount of help he can give. He can only give prophecies at certain times, can never tell them something twice, and suffers from other restrictions. After he bends the rules to warn Danger to retrieve Draco in time, he is banned from giving them any information for a considerable time. Then again in fifth year, he is banned from helping due to his daughter interfering in the mortal world. When Luna is made an Heir of Slytherin and gains this power, she immediately leaves to infiltrate the Death Eaters with Reynard, not returning until the very end of the story.

Story-Breaker Power / int_28df3e79	comment	In the There Was Once an Avenger From Krypton series, the Hulk, Thor, and Supergirl are this for the Avengers. All of them are major winners of the Superpower Lottery and are in the same weight class when it comes to raw overall power. Circumventing the issue with the former two, Banner rarely ever lets the Hulk out due to fear of the damage and destruction he would cause, while Thor is rarely on Earth. Supergirl, however, gets to show how effortlessly someone with this level of power would take care of most threats when put on a team comprised of mostly badass normals, Charles Atlas Superpower, or those in Power Armor. Chapter 23 of The Girl Who Could Knock Out the Hulk brutally deconstructs this trope when Doctor Doom makes his appearance. He casually dismantles the whole team and stabs Kara with a Kryptonite dagger, all while chastizing them for being too reliant on her to win things when they're not enough.

Story-Breaker Power / int_2ade1ae9	comment	A lot of the drama in Nobilis comes from how everyone and their dog has these and is not shy about throwing them around. That said, due to a particular quirk of reality caused by it being written in a language of flowers, anyone, noble or otherwise, can add some changes of their own, and because this kind of reality tampering is, so to say, rewriting the rules rather than playing along with them, nobles could well see their own powers and domain yanked right from them without any say in the matter. Thus, the DM is outright told none of the players should be granted any related power. Third edition adds a wrinkle where you can do anything, but pushing your power too far - say, using power over snakes to create an Aaron's Serpent, who are snake-shaped gods - causes Actuals to come out of the substrate of reality and start absorbing things, and a few days later you end up with a ship eating Chicago or something similarly difficult to repair.

Story-Breaker Power / int_2ba1d958	comment	The sequels have this problem with Neo, as at the end of the first film he is essentially a god of the Matrix, with the power to do anything he damn well pleases while inside it. Because of this the writers had to considerably tone down his powers from Reloaded onward (going from a Reality Warper to a Flying Brick), and up the villain threat. Of course, at the end of the first film, the writers didn't know if the movie would be popular enough for a sequel, so this is Hand Waved in the sequel as the Agents got an upgrade.

While it does strengthen the victim's body to the prime of their life to handle whatever new skills they have, it cannot regrow new muscles systems or allow them to use forms of energy that don't already exist in the My Hero Academia-verse (i.e. no chakra or magic). This is normally why she's comfortable using it even if it's essentially a game of lucky dip — until she awoke Izuku's past life: "Black Leg" Sanji. A.K.A. a guy whose monstrous strength only comes from pure skill, including his haki, which is simply materializing his willpower/ambition, and thus does not have his strength nerfed. At all. Izuku quickly goes from being barely able to use his Quirk to defend himself to the absolute strongest member of Class 1-A in thirty seconds, and just about the only thing stopping him from destroying the plot completely is a combination of Plot Armor for everyone else and Sanji's personality flaws.

His deck is so powerful that none of his duels last more than 5 turns, and keep in mind the duels in the fanfic have both players start with 8000 Life Points.

Celestine can see visions of the future like a prophet, a valuable asset for a thousand-year-old ruler such as she. The whole story could've ended immediately if she were to receive a vision foretelling the Black Dogs' betrayal, thus arresting and executing the entire PMC group for treason. Nonetheless, she is not omniscient, and the visions may not be indicative of what would exactly happen in the future. The following quote from the remastered version sheds light onto this issue. The Good Hunter is essentially unstoppable due to his unlimited revives and being head and shoulders above the rest in terms of speed, strength and durability. This guy is guaranteed to win any fight that he gets into while being hardly serious. As if he cannot get even more broken, the fact that he obtained the Childhood's Beginning ending from Bloodborne means he is a great one posing as a mannote though this is only implied in the remastered version. Both versions of the story go around this via the following methods: putting the Hunter in situations where he is disincentivised to use excessive forcenote e.g., defeating Olga and bringing her back to the South unspoiled; putting him in situations where he demonstrates skills besides combatnote e.g., choosing to stealthily enter a building instead of wasting time killing things in order to complete his objective faster; making him Willfully Weaknote i.e., he uses his Combo Platter Powers as a great one sparingly because he wants to conceal everything related to Yharnam and prevent collateral damage; having him experience setbacks in spite of his sheer powernote e.g., the Good Hunter is able to stop the Arc Villain, but fails to save everyone in time, leading to a Pyrrhic Victory; giving the spotlight to other charactersnote e.g., in Chapters 17-22 of the original version, the Hunter is in Scathlocke hunting down the current Arc Villain, while other characters like Lily and Soren are gaining intel to deal with a future Arc Villain; NOT making the story solely revolve around some Protagonist - Big Bad confrontationnote e.g., conflict is present due to the Hunter being an enigmatic, Good Is Not Nice Anti-Hero, characters learn about themselves and each other, etc.; and giving the Good Hunter Hidden Depths. The Plain Doll cannot be killed permanently like her Good Hunter, as well as being the only character confirmed to have Mind over Matter in the story, to the point of averting Just Hit Him. Readers have no idea how much control does she have with this power, together with whether she can do this without immunity. The reason why she is not shown rending enemies in the battlefield is because this would heavily contradict her established personality in Bloodborne canon (i.e., being a non-combatant).

For the first three volumes, he was a passive figure whom the creators said would only get out of bed when all hell breaks loose. When that does finally happen, the creators only show a taste of his abilities before off-screening the fight to keep his capabilities mysterious. From Volume 4, he is in an extremely de-powered state that keeps his true abilities under wraps for the majority of the show.

Considering that the Gears vastly outnumbered humans during the Crusades, just the rumor of Justice's child walking around unsupervised is enough to jump-start an international crisis. While believed to be capable of surpassing Justice, Dizzy is held back by her pacifistic nature and, early on, a complete inability to control her powers.

That's all he needs, but he is also ungodly powerful in conventional ways. Fortunately, he is a background character. Thus far, anyone with god-level powers are clearly significantly held back for the obvious reason that they are far too powerful at the moment. In order to give Urek Mazino even the remotest of challenge, SIU makes sure that he is severely limiting himself for the sake of the enemies he doesn't want dead as well as the environment and the fact he has to be mindful of allies as well, which doesn't stop him from destroying anyone he fights anyway. Po Bidau Gustang is repeatedly held back from action despite being fully capable of killing each and every single one of the people he stops to help Bam by the fact that no one is stupid enough to let him act on it and immediately escape. Grace Mirchia Luslec, a warrior strong enough to threaten even the Family Heads, cannot move because he is too powerful and would probably easily annahilate anyone apart from a Family Head. Lo Po Bia Traumerei upon arriving is immediately recognized as a Hopeless Boss Fight and he doesn't disappoint. He has the unprecedented ability to summon and control multipe massive Shinheuh at once, which is already enough to utterly overwhelm two extremely powerful characters, and can even nuke the entire Nest if he wants to, with the only reason he held himself back being because he wants to negotiate with Bam.

While this worked for the main storyline, it caused major problems for the Burial at Sea DLC, the second episode of which has Elizabeth as the main character, as it meant the writers had to find a way to write a compelling story about a protagonist who is effectively unbeatable and whose opponents are, at best, Badass Normals. The DLC begins with Elizabeth being awkwardly Brought Down to Normal and eventually it's revealed that the whole thing was one long Thanatos Gambit planned out by the omnipotent Elizabeth before she lost her powers. Fans still argue over whether she had to be given the Idiot Ball to get the plot to work.

The War God Demonbane is often considered the largest mecha in all of fiction, as it is so big that the universe collapses when it and its opponent start super-sizing themselves. It can also manipulate time. Elder God Demonbane, on the other hand, is much smaller but possesses even greater abilities, such as time travel, multiverse-hopping, and summoning versions of itself from all the infinite universes; an infinite army of backup. What keeps Demonbane from being an Invincible Hero is the fact that its opponents are the Outer Gods of Lovecraft's works... anything less than an infinite amount of power would never compete with them. Nyarlathotep, for instance, removes the aforementioned War God Demonbane from existence with a thought, and even Elder God Demonbane has never been able to put it down for good, even after literally billions of battles across the multiverse.

Story-Breaker Power / int_4eaf8496	comment	JoJopolis is a Fan Webcomic of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, so of course it gives these kind of abilities to its main villains. "God Only Knows" allows the user to read the past and the future (essentially making them The Omniscient) and allowing them to pull off tricks like knowing how to throw a ball at a helicopter to make it crash in a precise spot. The user does have a few weakness related to close blood relatives (for example, the user cannot foresee events that happen to or next to their own daughter); but the user can also make someone else omniscient and make them look into the relative's future. "Goodspeed You Black Emperor" can combine existing waves together... including light. Therefore, it can use light to create illusions, laser beams, or enough gamma radiation to replicate the effects of a low-power nuclear bomb. "Cosmic Wheels", the hidden ability of Hurdy Gurdy Man, essentially allows the user to charge its own attacks to extend their range, speed and power infinitely. On top of that, since no human being can truly comprehend infinity, any user of "God Only Knows" cannot predict it. "Everywhere At The End Of Time" allows the user to "access higher dimensional planes", essentially making them intangible at will and allowing them to teleport around. On top of that, their attacks will warp the victim's body, resulting in an almost certain One-Hit Kill. The main drawback is that staying too long in the other dimension will kill the user.

Story-Breaker Power / int_50bcf7a6	comment	Homestuck: The timing of Tavros's death comes suspiciously soon after the revelation that his animal affinity extends to First Guardians, and immediately after he asks about using it to get god-dog Becquerel to help directly. The Serkets' ability to control/"Manipul8" other trolls is incredibly powerful. While there are some restrictions (Vriska could not use it on at least Terezi, only on Sollux half the time, and it simply puts humans to sleep), it can be used on multiple targets at once, and if the target has powers, the manipulator can use their powers as well. It can even be used through Trollian, after it had been hooked up to see the complete timeline of the human session, which is how Vriska discovers that she can only force humans in to sleep in the first place. Late in Act 6, Aranea manages to manipulate several offshoot Damaras to use their telekinesis in order to move an entire mini-planet. Vriska being given such an ability fits in with how she was intentionally written to be polarizing, as the sheer ease that she could control others is one of the many factors that throws her into being controversial. The trolls themselves, with everyone being a Parody Sue, nearly all have wondrous, impressive powers that are rare even for their species. Unfortunately, their personalities are so dysfunctional and the Gambit Pileup they get stuck in is so massively huge (spanning dozens of characters, at least two apocalypses, and time travel in both directions) that any attempt they make to fix the situation either fails completely or only ends up making things worse. A recurring theme throughout Hivebent is that if the trolls could actually get past their various issues and work together as a team, they could be heroes. Jade Harley gets several of these in a row. First, she imprints her dead dream-self into her sprite, creating a version of Jade with godlike power of both a sprite and the First Guardian that was already there... who is too depressed to use it. Then, she fuses with Jadesprite as part of going god-tier, giving her godlike power and the will to use it... but then the plot proceeds in such a way that she spends three years with her boundless teleport mojo not working for her. Finally, upon arriving in the alpha session, she is hit with mind control by a major villain, caught in a difficult confrontation with a fully-powered Page, knocked unconscious by a surprise hit and finally crushed under a building. In the post-retcon timeline, she's still hit with mind control by the same villain, but quickly gets put to sleep by another character's mind control powers, and spends the climax of Act 6 fighting one villain who shares her First Guardian abilities. John and his retcon powers not only allow him to move through different universes (something not even Jade can do), but it also gives him the ability to make changes to the alpha timeline. Meaning that when things go wrong or get too hot to handle, he can just go back and change it, with absolutely no one able to stop him. It was through this ability that John managed to revive most of the dead main characters, as well as transport the entirety of the Land of Wind and Shade to his newly created alpha timeline.

Yep, the laid-back Cosmic Plaything Englishman who's just looking for a way to go home to his girlfriend — that Axl. The events of -REVELATOR- whack him with the terrible Tomato in the Mirror that he's really a Pure Magic Being made of sentient temporal information who has the power to erase and rewrite entire timelines however he wants with a single thought. That includes the ability to instantly erase anyone from time, rendering them Ret-Gone. All that time-skipping he was doing through the series was just Power Incontinence. Jack-O' and Sol agree that he is the single greatest threat to the entire world given that he can do things that no feat of science or magic can replicate, and Jack-O' even points out that Axl could pull an A God Am I if he so desired. Thankfully, Axl's pacifistic and kind-hearted Nice Guy attitude prevents him using this power for anything besides saving people from collapsing buildings and the like — he even used his powers to save the current timeline in -REVELATOR- at the cost of ever being able to go home to Megumi like he wanted, even though there would have been no ramifications for him if he refused. Where this becomes horrifying for the heroes is I-No is a being of similar nature and power to Axl (in fact she is an Alternate Timeline version of Megumi), and without Asuka/That Man to keep her in line, she's free to use her powers to attain godhood.

Story-Breaker Power / int_51941615	comment	Fantastic Beasts The movies have made significant attempts to dampen Grindelwald and Dumbledore's full abilities, since as the two greatest wizards in the world at their prime, even the strongest people they can fight would look pathetic compared to them. In the first film, Grindewald spends most of the runtime impersonating another wizard (Percival Graves) and even then he is still head and shoulders above everyone else. He's about to take out a whole platoon of Aurors when he's defeated by a surprise attack. Even though he's more out in the open in the second one, his focus is on recruiting rather than killing, whenever he does fight, it's clear that none of his enemies are of any real threat to him. Likewise, Dumbledore is acknowledged by Grindelwald to be all but unstoppable to his men, and he gets put on house arrest at Hogwarts to keep him out of the action. The final fight against Grindelwald thus ends with a curb-stomping of the entire group of Ministry fighters, with it taking everything the heroes have to stop him from burning down Paris after heâ€™d already left. In the third film, where the stakes are much higher, while both wizards enjoy much more screentime it's clear that their actions are still being limited for the sake of the story. Dumbledore and Grindelwald cannot fight each other directly because of a blood pact, a condition only broken at the critical moment of the climax. Dumbledore is further occupied by fighting Credence at first rather than helping the heroes, while Grindelwald is entirely focused on gaining ultimate political power. When Dumbledore finally fights against Grindelwald, he even makes a point of taking them to a special dimension so their fight doesn't cause much damage. Queenie Goldstein is such a powerful, natural Legilimens that the story has to find workarounds to keep her from knowing everything. This is mostly done by having her interact with non-Americans, as she reveals to the British Newt that she has trouble even with understanding native English speakers who have different accents' thoughts. The second movie establishes that, while she can read the thoughts of non-native English speakers, she can't understand them. She gets lost in Paris looking for her sister and has a breakdown in the street when she's drowned out by a bunch of French speakers that sound like gibberish to her. Grindelwald and his followers quickly swoop in and take advantage of the language barrier to try to manipulate her into joining them. Although given what a powerful wizard he is, there was probably also a bit of Occlumency involved, which is likely how she was kept in the dark about his impersonation of Percival Graves in the first movie. Newt's collection of beasts includes some of the deadliest creatures in the world, effectively giving him a grab-bag of quick and easy solutions to his problems. The story thus makes him a Friend to All Living Things so that he respects his creatures and only resorts to using them as weapons in the most dire circumstances. In the first film, a mix-up at Baggage Claim leads to most of his creatures escaping, and since heâ€™s a wanted man for letting that happen he doesnâ€™t dare fight fire with fire since that would attract too much attention. Without that limitation, a Swooping Evil single-handedly lets him and Tina escape certain death within moments and even captures Grindelwald himself. In the second film, he uses a Zowu to casually beat back Matagots and reach the final battle, but leaves his case behind, leaving only his Niffler to be used against Grindelwald. As if recognizing this, the third film completely sidelines Newt's box of beasts by giving it a role that means he can't use it, meaning he must rely on only his Niffler and Bowtruckle.

The main character, Sabrina, possesses the ability to control Grief, the corruptive substance produced when magical girls use their magic. Because of this, she has functionally limitless power, and provides that same limitlessness to anyone else — in fact, using her abilities will only give her more material to work with. Since Grief is also the material Witches and their barriers are made from, it can be shaped into virtually any form or function, giving her what amounts to an Imagination-Based Superpower, and making her a Man of Kryptonite to the setting's primary threat. On top of that, she's also essentially a Fourth-Wall Observer, and possesses the knowledge of anyone regularly reading and posting in the thread — including the entire plot of the original story. Because of this, the focus of the story ends up shifting heavily, from a struggle for survival to attempting to untangle the Dysfunction Junction that is the show's primary cast and the Crapsack World that is the entire setting.

Story-Breaker Power / int_5755b96a	comment	The Order of the Stick: Vaarsuvius becomes ridiculously powerful through a Deal with the Devil. The resulting arrogance results in a serious backfire/subversion later on when Xykon turns out to be much too well-prepared for a simple brute force attack to work. The above-described Scry and Die tactic is explicitly mentioned. According to Rich Burlew, even with Vaarsuvius having the two most useful spell schools on their banned list (Conjuration, which governs summoning, teleportation, and creation, and Necromancy, which governs instant death, creation of undead, and many debuffs), it is very hard to write scenarios that they can't trivialize with the other six spell schools. V's spent multiple important battles out of the way because of this. He's also stated that he considers true resurrection (the most powerful resurrection spell, capable of reviving a person even without a body) a story-breaker, and it will never show up in the comic. He also mentioned that the few monsters capable of casting it naturally would demand at least one life in exchange, which, in most cases, is too high a price for the characters to reasonably pay. He's also not a fan of teleportation magic, since his story, like many, is about journeys. "Characters who blip right to their end destination do not for an engaging journey make." Durkon, being a cleric, is just as powerful as V, if not more so. His displayed spells include healing to the point of resurrection, paralyzing at range, turning into a giant, tossing around lightning, changing the weather, flying, sending messages across long ranges, and making people immune to Mind Control or Level Drain, and that's on top of being a decent warrior in his own right. As such, it's practically a Running Gag that he doesn't use his skills to their full potential. Even then, he usually ends up either sitting fights out (the bandit forest, both Miko fights), being far away from people who need him (most of the battle of Azure City, most of Don't Split The Party), or being turned into a vampire. Xykon, the Big Bad, has similar issues; he's an epic-level lich sorcerer, and therefore one of the most powerful people alive. If he wanted to, he could pop in on the main characters, bombard them with meteors, and kill them in under thirty seconds, and he happens to be basically unkillable on top of that.

It's later revealed that he can create illusions that warp his victims' perception of reality, but the effects are the same. He repeatedly routs the Resistance armies, and the limits by which he's able to warp reality are ill-defined. Consequently, he never seems to use the Phantom Ruby to its fullest potential in his actual boss fights, preferring to create harmful obstacles and do charging attacks.

The only reason he doesn't just go and burn down the mainland himself is ironically the same reason he needs an army in the first place; he's always worried about the other dragons ganging up on him if he makes any moves, so he's trying to build an army to hunt them down individually, or at least soften them up.

Story-Breaker Power / int_5e150650	comment	Exalted: The entire premise of the game is an effort to quantify, formalize, and tame these... with at best mixed success. For the "out-of-combat" part, it is entirely possible, even common, for starting or at least very inexperienced characters to have infallible lie detectors, similarly perfect True Sight against any sensory illusions/invisibility, capacity to create things out of thin air and, soon enough, reshape matter (that includes the proverbial "punching someone into a frog"), form supernaturally binding contracts (itself a huge plot-breaker in competent hands), summoning and binding a HUGE array of demons with pretty much any special shtick one cares to think about, and, in the separate sub-system of "social combat" ability to persuade anyone of anything, "magically", e.g. defying subject's common sense, and possibly giving openly suicidal orders. In other words, even before we go to combat, it's extremely challenging to come up with a complicated plot with mysteries and twists that a competent "power-oriented" player group won't just barge through on the back of their abilities, often with no rolls or with rolls which are nigh-impossible to fail. Oh, and there's a reroll built in characters from the start for those fancy unlucky moments. This doesn't even cover 2e's combat system, which quickly leads to perfect attacks being deflected by perfect defenses — there are ones for every case, against being shaped into a frog, against being mind-raped, and plainly against getting hit/taking damage, with the latter explicitly being able to "defend" against acid rains, swimming in lava and other things not realistically dodgeable or blockable. Because almost any hit landed can and will be supplemented with either some kind of instant-incapacitation/death effect or just plain lethal amounts of damage dice. This brought about so-called "Paranoia Combat": characters sitting behind layers of perfect defenses while trying to force opponents to spend more mana on theirs (by way of multiple attacks, mostly). Characters' mana pool (called Essence) is actually their "life points" and whoever runs out first, by virtue of less efficient build or plainly having less maximum to begin with, tends to splatter gruesomely. It doesn't help that, officially, "power tiers" of various kinds of supernaturals in the system differ by their maximum mana pools and the costs of their defenses, with weaker ones having both at a disadvantage. It also leads to rather uh-oh "accounting" playstyle where high-class supernaturals barely ever roll dice on attacks, more often just comparing their mana pools and attrition rates.

Story-Breaker Power / int_67ae1c37	comment	Light and Dark The Adventures of Dark Yagami: The Royal Death Note lets the user bypass the rule that they must know their target's face and full name. The whole plot of Death Note — Light's hunt for L's name — becomes quite pointless, since Dark can simply write "L" and kill him. Except... There is also a Life Note, which allows anyone, no matter how they died, to be brought back instantly. The Death Notes are essentially worthless. Except... There is an Anti Life Note which is immune to the Life Note's powers (except it doesn't work on Near for some reason). (Un)fortunately, the author forgets about this before it has a chance to pay off. The granddaddy of all of these is the Everything Note, which can do everything. It can be used for resurrection, time travel, superpowers, teleportation and sex. As soon as it is introduced, any pretense at being a Gambit Pileup story is completely gone. On a meta level, the Reset Note grants a metafictional Reset Button to Dark, which lets him Retcon Khaos' rise to power and making his defeat one of the greatest anticlimaxes ever. If he was smarter about using it, the Reset Note would be even stronger than the Everything Note.

Story-Breaker Power / int_69d15cc0	comment	Marvel Cinematic Universe: As with the X-Men version, Quicksilver's Super-Speed rigs many fights in his favor. His speed is great enough that he can travel across vast distances in very short times, and everyone around him appears to be standing still while he's running in a fight. He smugly asks Hawkeye "You didn't see that coming?" on one occasion. He would have been problematic to write around for future films, such as the below-mentioned Civil War, so it's a silent blessing for the writers that he dies in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Speaking of Age of Ultron, The Vision wields Mjolnir in the final battle against the titular villain... and that's the last time Vision and Thor ever interact in the MCU, to prevent him from doing to everyone else what he does to Ultron and his army. According to Word of God, this is a major reason both the Hulk and Thor were excluded from Captain America: Civil War. They're so much more powerful than most of the other heroes that they'd tilt the balance of power ridiculously in favor of whichever team they ended up on. Vision is also used very sparingly during the airport fight scene, not doing much until the end of the battle, while Spider-Man and Giant-Man, normally powerful but not ridiculously overpowered superheroes, quickly turn the tide of battle for their respective sides. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2: With his Yaka arrow and a prototype controller, Yondu Udonta is able to single-handedly put down about 100 members of his mutinous crew with almost hilarious ease and no danger to himself, Kraglin, Rocket, or Groot. With him as a loyal ally, a lot of potential enemies and threats would become far less threatening, so his Heroic Sacrifice for Peter, while saddening, did not come as a huge shock to savvy viewers. Thor: Ragnarok has Hela, the Goddess of Death. Hela is strong enough to crush Thor's hammer and can take down most of Asgard all by herself with ease. The only reason why she loses is because of Surtur at full power; even Hulk and and a newly god-powered Thor couldn't do anything to her! In Avengers: Infinity War, Vision is badly injured when he and Wanda are ambushed in a sneak attack early on, and is unable to use his Intangibility the rest of the film. This conveniently allows the bad guys to fight him on more equal footing and prevents him from serving as a Deus ex Machina at key points. Infinity War makes it clear Doctor Strange is the strongest (non-Super Serum-charged, non-Infinity Stone-powered) regular human in the MCU bar none, being the only character other than Thor who's able to fight Thanos on roughly even footing with a dizzying array of superpowers — trapping Thanos in prison dimensions, restraining him with bands of energy, summoning an army of illusory clones to distract him, and in one particularly memorable instance catching a literal black hole that Thanos throws at him and turning it into butterflies. Moreover, he and his allies very nearly win against Thanos without the help of the other heavy-hitter Avengers like the Vision, Scarlet Witch, Hulk, or Thor. And all of this is without the use of the Time Stone except for looking into the future. Conveniently, he's one of the heroes to get dusted in the Snap to keep him from teaming up with the stronger Avengers and making Endgame a walk in the park. Wanda Maximoff: By the time of Infinity War, Wanda is powerful enough to hold her own against Corvus Glaive and Proxima Midnight, destroy the Mind Stone-empowered Vision at his own urging with one hand while simultaneously holding back an advancing Thanos—who also has the other five Infinity Stones on his gauntlet—with the other. (Admittedly, she did have the other Wakanda-based Avengers trying to halt Thanos in his approach, but the emphasis here is on "trying".) Earlier in the battle, after spending her time sidelined while protecting Vision, she also swoops in to thin the ranks of the Outriders by dropping giant threshers on them, and kills Proxima Midnight (who was able to keep both Black Widow and Okoye at bay), the former of which is mercilessly lampshaded by Okoye: "Why was she up there all this time?" Like Doctor Strange, Wanda's dusted by the Snap to level the playing field for Avengers: Endgame, which then proceeds to justify that exclusion when she returns for the final battle and quite literally tosses Thanos around like a rag doll, breaks his sword (which had withstood hits from Mjolnir and Stormbreaker, and torn chunks from Cap's shield), and rips chunks of armor off his body like tissue paper while suspending him in mid-air. If not for Thanos calling in an airstike that also decimated his own forces, Wanda would have undoubtedly killed him. It is brought up in WandaVision when it's debated between Monica Rambeau and Jimmy Woo who's stronger between Wanda and Carol Danvers (see below). WandaVision also suggests she's on track to quickly become one of the most powerful beings in the universe by a wide margin, revealing Wanda to be the Scarlet Witch, a legendary witch capable of manipulating Chaos Magic for various purposes—including bending reality through a complex array of spells to turn an entire New Jersey town into her ideal sitcom reality while brainwashing its inhabitants into acting out roles in her fantasy, and simultaneously creating new life in the form of a "resurrected" Vision and their twin sons. All by complete accident! And this is before she gets her hands on the Darkhold... Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness solves the issue of having a Reality Warper on the heroes' side by making her the villain instead. She's an Implacable slasher movie monster that the heroes have absolutely no chance of stopping, at best only stalling her while they try to escape. They're only able to defeat her by causing her to have a "My God, What Have I Done?" moment. It's no surprise that she ends the movie with a (seeming) Heroic Sacrfice that destroys every copy of the Darkhold across the Multiverse. The biggest example is Thanos with the Infinity Gauntlet. Thanos is already strong enough to Curb-Stomp Battle the Hulk without any stones or assistance, is already the most powerful being in the universe with just two stones, and at no point does it seem like Thanos will lose in Infinity War except for the fight on Titan, and once he has the Time Stone, his victory is in the bag (since anything the heroes do after that will only slow him down by a few minutes at best). The writers even added the requirement to move the Gauntlet's fingers so he wouldn't be completely unstoppable. By the time he has all six stones, only Thor can kill him with Stormbreaker, which he'd spent the entire film constructing, but misses Thanos's head and instead goes for his heart, allowing Thanos to do the Snap. And the Russos said even that attack only worked because Thor took Thanos by surprise. This actually becomes a plot point in Endgame, when the Avengers track Thanos down on his garden planet so they can use the Stones to reverse the Snap, only to find that Thanos destroyed them to prevent both further temptation and to keep his actions from being undone. Endgame also provides a very convenient (for the writers) explanation as to why the Infinity Stones can't just be used willy-nilly to wipe out every problem the Avengers face: when Tony Stark uses them, he's killed from the strain of being subjected to so much energy. Even the Hulk and Thanos, who are much larger and stronger than regular humans by about a factor of ten or more, suffer severe burn scars and injuries from performing Snapture-level reality warping. As noted above, Thor becomes this in Infinity War on account of Stormbreaker, an enchanted axe he personally forges with the help of Eitri for the sole purpose of enacting revenge on Thanos. With it, he's able to summon the Bifrost on his own for quick travel across space (getting around the issue caused by Thanos killing off Heimdall early in the film—itself done to prevent the heroes from easily teaming up to counteract the Mad Titan), effortlessly turns the tides of the Battle of Wakanda mere moments after his arrival, and even proves capable of curb-stomping Thanos while he's wielding all six Infinity Stones (albeit via the element of surprise). He's scaled back in Endgame by having him gain a lot of weight due to depression over his failure to prevent the Snap and wallowing in a alcohol-induced haze over the next five years. Upon getting back to shape in Thor: Love and Thunder, he outclasses not only the Guardians of the Galaxy but the entire army they were helping to take back their planet (and losing). The Guardians quietly kick him off the team, not just to maintain tension for their own movies but because they find his effortless domination insufferable. He doesn't use Stormbreaker much, being held back by the axe's jealousy over Thor wanting to rekindle a relationship with Mjolnir. He even ends up losing it after having previously made it clear he could have single-handedly defeated Gorr the God-Butcher, whereas it took Valkyrie and Jane as Mighty Thor wielding Mjolnir working in tandem just to drive Gorr back. The end of the film even has Thor voluntarily hand Stormbreaker off to Love, reverting back to using Mjolnir. Word of God confirms that Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel, is the most powerful superhero in MCU. In the climax of her own movie after she finally unlocks her powers, she completely wipes the floor with Ronan's Kree bombing fleet effortlessly and can travel through space at the speed of light. This is why (in-universe) she never appeared in any of the previous movies beforehand, as she alone can singlehandedly solve any conflict the Avengers got themselves into with ease, and only shows up to join the team when things are at their bleakest in Avengers: Endgame. (To wit, Nick Fury alludes to the idea of a Godzilla Threshold by saying they won't need to summon her if they do their jobs right, highlighting how dire circumstances are when he does make the call while the Snap's taking effect during The Stinger of Infinity War.) Carol promptly does more damage to the villains than every other hero in the MCU does in the same fight, starting with her completely destroying Thanos' ship by herself. She does still end up defeated by Thanos, but it's shot in a way that makes it clear she would have been able to overpower him if not for some quick thinking on Thanos' part (by temporarily taking the Power Stone out of its spot in the gauntlet, transferring it to his non-gauntlet hand, and then punching Carol). The Book of Vishanti is kept locked up in a universe that is in between all universes and few people know of its existence. Being a one of a kind artifact that grants you what you need to solve a problem, it also ends up being destroyed by Wanda shortly after its found.

Story-Breaker Power / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: Spellcasters in earlier editions had spells to duplicate every power in the trope description, and spellcasters can learn large numbers of spells. In fact, spells in general are considered to be this, but a few schools in particular take most of the blame: Divination (whose wide variety of information-gathering spells makes running any sort of mystery or puzzle extremely difficult), Conjuration (a big one, as teleportation invalidates most needs for traveling, and the ability to summon aid bogs down combat, when the summoner isn't just calling up godlike beings), and Transmutation (mostly for the Polymorph line: why be Pals with Jesus when you can just become Jesus?). With high-level characters, one of the simplest and most dangerous strategies is commonly called "Scry and Die" — instead of traversing a dungeon or an elaborate plot to track down the Big Bad for an epic confrontation, the players scry out his location with magic, then buff up (and occasionally stop time) before teleporting in and killing the unfortunate enemy very, very quickly (or fetching whatever their goal is to fetch, and so forth.) Repeatedly casting the "Love's Pain" spell (someone the target loves takes damage, cannot be stopped) on a Mook who you have given Fake Memories of loving your enemy... Even low-level spells can be a pain in the DM's butt. Take "Knock", which undoes any mundane lock (and some magical locks too), instantly and 100% reliably. The Wish spell, which is pretty much as it sounds. The player wishes for anything to happen and reality will reshape itself to make it come true. There are some limitations, and some downsides. The spell is difficult to obtain and cast, and drains the life force of the caster (read: XP loss) to empower the events. If the wish is something too insane, the caster may die without yielding enough power to make it happen. Second, and usually even more importantly, you should be very careful what you wish for. Just wishing for a lot of gold, for example, may result in all the gold in every king's treasury teleported to you. However, how you will explain that to their armies that are sure to follow is not in the scope of the spell. In fact, the GM is specifically instructed on what wishes to give them a chance, in Second Edition, and if the players ask for more, to make SURE they regret it. Miracle, the divine flavor of Wish, is even more enhanced: The spell-replicating function of Miracle carries no XP burn and can duplicate the effects of ANY 7th level spell or lower and ANY 8th level Domain spell or lower. Only the massively broken reality-warping function of the spell incurs a possible XP burn. Also, Miracle is not a spell cast so much as a supplication made of a deity, removing the possibility of the spellcaster receiving any magical backlash — of course, if the deity in question (which is to say, the DM) doesn't feel like granting the request, Miracle may simply fail, or end up worse. Miracle is particularly potent when used by an Ur-Priest, a 3.5 prestige class whose schtick is stealing magic from gods and priests. The god's choices are no longer relevant; since the fluff is that the character is stealing the power from the deity in the first place, the deity no longer needs to approve or disapprove; the caster simply uses the stolen power in whatever manner she chooses. And this would entail no greater or lesser retribution than stealing any other 9th level spell, so if an Ur-Priest is casting 9ths, they've been dealing with that for a while. Craft Contingent Spell (cast a spell in advance, it triggers when a condition is met) and Celerity (take an extra action, even in the middle of another character's turnnote Which can disrupt that character's turn, e.g. by moving out of range just before they attack.) can be extremely powerful even when used separately, but Contingent Celerity makes the user impossible to catch by surprise. Throw Time Stop into the mix and well... The infamous Glibness spell from 3.5: a Bard-exclusive spell available at level 7 that gives a +30 bonus to Bluff checks for the purpose of telling lies, a bonus big enough to give you a chance to deceive a character 30 levels higher than you are and make this task almost impossible to fail against characters of your own level. At a time when rules were poorly worded and succeeding to lie with a Bluff check would force the second party to take your word as absolute truth, this spell had the potential to wreck a scenario entirely. Later, after changes in wording switching from "the NPC believes you" to "the NPC doesn't notice you are lying", a very far-fetched or implausible lie would result in the NPC to question your sanity instead of blindly believing you, depending on what your GM thinks is the most logical outcome. This trope is the main reasoning behind the Character Tiers in most editions: not pure power, but the ability to just completely invalidate entire storylines planned by the DM without even trying. A barbarian might be able to kill the Big Bad in one hit, but he still has to get there. Meanwhile, journey across dangerous land? Teleport. Murder mystery? Raise Dead. Find the traitor? Detect Thoughts. Stop a plague? Remove Disease. Low on funds? Fabricate. Foil an assassination? Magnificent Mansion. Learn the Big Bad's weakness? Legend Lore. Interrogate someone? Charm Person. Hold off an invading army? More spells than can be named. These can be planned around by the DM - for instance, declaring that the place the party needs to go to has some kind of magic that makes teleporting unreliable - but that's still a deliberate effort being made just so the plot can work, and the DM has to take all the spells the character has learned and might learn into account. The definition of Tier 1 is a character who has the potential to learn or at least duplicate pretty much every spell and switch them out regularly, meaning the DM has to pay specific attention to the character's daily loadout just to make sure they don't accidentally skip a third of the adventure.

Story-Breaker Power / int_6c2c4bf3	comment	X-Men Film Series: Professor Charles Xavier's Telepathy is such that most of the movies would be over very, very quickly if he did not frequently get incapacitated or rendered powerless in some way. Special mention goes to Magneto's signature helmet with built-in Psychic Block Defense, which allows him to avoid detection and influence from his most frequent nemesis. X-Men: Days of Future Past: Quicksilver gets Put on a Bus after the Pentagon raid because, as that raid shows, he is downright unstoppable. While moving at Super-Speed, simply tapping a person is the equivalent of getting hit by a heavyweight boxer, and he can take out an entire room of armed guards so quickly that their bullets weren't even able to reach the people they had shot at when he started. In X-Men: Apocalypse he saves the entire class from a giant explosion and is the first character to put up a fight and hurt Apocalypse. In X-Men: Days of Future Past the writers deal with this by making his character so young and immature that he just doesn't care to join them once the interesting part (for him) is over, and in X-Men: Apocalypse Apocalypse breaks his leg to incapacitate him. His powers proved to be such a hassle that in X-Men: Dark Phoenix, he spends the majority of the film in a coma after getting injured by the Phoenix during the first act. X-Men: Apocalypse: Nightcrawler's energy level drains rapidly if he teleports too many people at the same time, and he's inert for part of the Final Battle. John Ottman divulges in the "Unlimited Powers: VFX, Stunts and Set Pieces" featurette on the Blu-Ray the reason for the limitation on the character's endurance.

Some given examples include Absimiliard, the Nosferatu founder, unleashing a plague of pests to Diablerize the entire global population of vampires, and Tremere attempting to mind control the global population of humans.

Story-Breaker Power / int_72f08b60	comment	In the world of Honkai Impact 3rd, Herrschers are a classification of Physical God that are the result of humans being corrupted by Honkai energy, granting them incredibly powerful and destructive superpowers. Welt Yang, the 1st Herrscher AKA the Herrscher of Reason, is one of the few heroic Herrschers and is blessed with an Imagination-Based Superpower that allows him to generate perfect copies of virtually any object he wants as long as he understands the properties of what he wants to make. This even includes the Divine Key - Star of Eden, a superweapon that allows him to create black holes. This makes him very powerful but not broken in the context of Honkai Impact 3rd since most of his troubles stem from other Herrschers who are just as powerful if not even stronger than him, but in Honkai: Star Rail the effective power level in the galaxy is significantly lower on average, making Welt's powers extremely broken. He's only not solving all of the Astral Express's problems singlehandedly because Himeko insists on letting March 7th and Dan Heng (and eventually the Trailblazer) figure out how to solve problems on their own.

Kyoko Kirigiri's Ultimate Detective talent, and Chihiro Fujisaki's Ultimate Programmer talent. The former was so good at solving murder cases that the Mastermind had to give her a Drama-Preserving Handicap in the form of Laser-Guided Amnesia to not have her figure out every mystery by herself, and even then is far and away the driving force of every Class Trial. Chihiro Fujisaki, meanwhile, is able to create full-fledged AI that can take full control of the Hope's Peak Academy interface to save Makoto's life, provide crucial information to escape, and give Kiyotaka therapy. The only two weaknesses the two have to their talents are Kyoko's Inferiority Superiority Complex and tendency to run off on her own and even her logic being not flawless all the time, and Chihiro's crippling lack of confidence.

Similar to the Dragon Balls of the Dragon Ball franchise, the Triforce is an omnipotent Cosmic Keystone that can grant any wish. The only caveat to its use is that the user must have a balance of Power, Wisdom, and Courage in their heart to use it to its full power, but by the end of several games, Link and/or Zelda is able to use it, having achieved that balance already. Theoretically, its omnipotent power should be able to stop the cycle of Ganon returning to menace Hyrule as instigated by Demise's curse of hatred, but this would bring the series to a permanent close. Because of this, should they ever use it, the good guys only use the Triforce to resolve more immediate matters such as defeating just one instance of Ganon or restoring the damage done by said villain.

While moving at Super-Speed, simply tapping a person is the equivalent of getting hit by a heavyweight boxer, and he can take out an entire room of armed guards so quickly that their bullets weren't even able to reach the people they had shot at when he started. In X-Men: Apocalypse he saves the entire class from a giant explosion and is the first character to put up a fight and hurt Apocalypse. In X-Men: Days of Future Past the writers deal with this by making his character so young and immature that he just doesn't care to join them once the interesting part (for him) is over, and in X-Men: Apocalypse Apocalypse breaks his leg to incapacitate him. His powers proved to be such a hassle that in X-Men: Dark Phoenix, he spends the majority of the film in a coma after getting injured by the Phoenix during the first act.

Story-Breaker Power / int_7d985ff1	comment	Deconstructed in Epithet Erased, as some epithets are clearly much stronger than others, but creative usage of a weaker epithet such as "Dumb" or "Soup" can catch up. Mera Salamin's Epithet is Fragile. It allows her to weaken pretty much anything, so she should be fine in a fight, right? Problem is, it also affects her and results in constant pain. This is why she seeks to steal Molly's epithet, as it will allow her to numb the side effects of her own epithet while keeping everything she's worked for. Zora Salazar's Epithet is Sundial, which allows her to age and de-age anything, or stop something in time, as long as it's still on-going when she uses it. Unlike Fragile before it, the main issues of Sundial are blindspots rather than side effects. However, she believes that having such a powerful epithet makes fights less enjoyable, and prefers to fight like a normal instead, to the point she's a member of a Muggle Power terrorist group. That being said, she's still not above using it even in a fair fight, as before the fight with Percy and Ramsey she's set up several bullets suspended in time that hit them when they try to find her.

The supposed leader of the family, Ghost, is a walking Class Z apocalypse via his time space burning fire, which gives him the power of "denial of phenomena". In layman's terms, he can negate anyone, anything, any EVENT, any CAUSALITY, any MEMORY, any WORLD, any GOD, or any DIMENSION he wishes by burning the time space that makes them up. This includes the events that possess anytime he dies or gets hurt as well. He is confirmed to be the absolute end of his multiverse and can enact it anytime he wants, but doesn't because "he isn't that big of an asshole." His Sister, Shadow, is right up there as she contains the supposed Goddess (Demon Dragon Goddess... Thing) Zuzushi, that created their multiverse. As a result she has obtained the ability to "create all from nothing." It's been stated but not shown that she is easily capable of manifesting universes on a whim, and even contemplated destroying and recreating the Narutoverse the current story was in after Ghost trapped her in it while a major event occurred in another universe

Story-Breaker Power / int_8ce98f07	comment	The Shinza Bansho Series has become quite infamous for this trope, featuring reality altering characters around every corner with fights that can range from anywhere between "superpowered fistfights" to "reality-ending free-for-alls." When creating life-draining fake moons and literal Plot Armor are considered the low end of the power scale, you know this trope is in effect. In fact, the only reason there often is a narrative at all is due to the fact that there are just so many individuals with such broken powers that it practically becomes a contest for who is the most broken. The plot of Dies Irae almost entirely centers around the main villain trying to create an opponent worthy of fighting him as he is so ungodly powerful that nothing can excite him. He is able to effortlessly beat pretty much anyone else that comes his way, including, but not limited to, Elemental Shapeshifters, ancient magicians, a cyborg with an all ending strike, someone able to invoke a hellish inferno of perfect accuracy, those who are always faster than their opponent and even literal gods. Even within his own series, Hajun the Sixth Heaven from Kajiri Kamui Kagura, is considered to be in a league of his own. His power is counted in infinities, and due to a bizarre feedback loop, it is constantly rising. He was only ever beaten due to The Tumor that existed within him, and that was the cause of the feedback loop, was leeching power off him and feeding it to Habaki and his allies. Even his faulty reincarnation in Dies Irae Pantheon is still gaining strength, albeit not to such extremes, while all the other gods have to deal with being De-Powered.

Story-Breaker Power / int_8df5521b	comment	Superman's power is a major issue in and behind the story of both the theatrical and director's cut versions of Justice League. Basically, the story needs to be about assembling a Super Team that should include Superman because he's traditionally been a key member... but he's more powerful than the other members put together, so why do you need a team at all? Well, the forces of evil in the film wait until Superman's death in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice to make their move in the first place so they don't have to deal with him. Batman starts to assemble the team to resist the upcoming invasion, but they keep losing to the villain, and he thinks it's necessary to try to resurrect Superman in spite of the risks. They succeed, but he's not immediately available to help them, so they head to the Final Battle without him. The villain beats them again, but when Superman shows up, and easily turns the tide of the battle single-handedly. This demonstrates the power difference, too: Steppenwolf is strong enough to fight Wonder Woman and Aquaman off simultaneously by himself (and they're certainly not slouches), but he's unable to land a single blow against Superman. If Superman wasn't in the film at all, the story could have been basically the same but with the team winning via a Heroic Second Wind and teamwork.

Story-Breaker Power / int_8ec33a87	comment	Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Jin, can move and attack faster than most characters can blink, making him unbeatable in combat. Even Foresight is useless when he can hit faster than an opponent can get out of the way, and it gets worse, since this is born from the power to control elementary particles. Even weapons like particle beams are useless as he can manipulate them to not hit him, and he can chill and area to absolute zero to rob Blades of their powers (since Ether particles lose the energy to do work under those conditions).. The only thing keeping him in check is the fact he's following Malos a bit passively since his loyalty comes from Malos being his Only Friend, and Jin being near the end of his lifespan and at risk of dying from ether stagnation when he exerts himself. He only loses three fights in the whole game, and all of them come from outside influence: a Power Nullifier, Pneuma awakening to cheat right back, and a wound from that fight he never completely recovers from. Once Rex gets Mythra he never really loses any fights except for the battle against Jin in Tantal due to the ability of Foresight, although he does need help sometimes. At best, he draws with Morag, Zeke and Power Nullified Jin. Pneuma is likely the biggest out of all of them considering it was made to counter Jin. She can rewrite the laws of the physical surroundings, allowing her to be as fast as Jin and she also possesses the data of all Blade Cores, meaning she effectively has every non-flesh eater Blade's powers. The only challenge she and Rex are faced with is Aion, which they still win against. Fan la Norne/Haze is a Power Nullifier against blades and even some titans, which she uses to get the main party out of some sticky situations, but ultimately gets her killed by Jin. Obrona has the ability to track Ether flows, allowing her to find any Driver or Blade anywhere on the planet; and in close proximity, she can control Ether enough to choke any Blade. Combined with Jin, this makes the group from Torna virtually unstoppable, so it's no surpise that she's killed in the same chapter she's introduced.

Story-Breaker Power / int_8f25225c	comment	Danganronpa: Between a variety of talents, characters and a Magnificent Bastard of a Big Bad, no power seems to be able to outdo Luck in the Dangan Ronpa universe. This is even lampshaded in the third case of the game, when the killer says that one of the reasons for their murder was that they wanted to test their talent against Makoto's luck, and naturally, they lose. In the second game, Nagito, who is even luckier than Makoto ends up orchestrating his own death, through an insanely complicated method, so the person he wanted would be blamed for it and allowed to escape. The only thing keeping it from being completely overpowered is how it can be more trouble than it's worth because it encompasses both good and bad luck. Among Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc, two talents in particular stand out in being the most broken. Kyoko Kirigiri's Ultimate Detective talent, and Chihiro Fujisaki's Ultimate Programmer talent. The former was so good at solving murder cases that the Mastermind had to give her a Drama-Preserving Handicap in the form of Laser-Guided Amnesia to not have her figure out every mystery by herself, and even then is far and away the driving force of every Class Trial. Chihiro Fujisaki, meanwhile, is able to create full-fledged AI that can take full control of the Hope's Peak Academy interface to save Makoto's life, provide crucial information to escape, and give Kiyotaka therapy. The only two weaknesses the two have to their talents are Kyoko's Inferiority Superiority Complex and tendency to run off on her own and even her logic being not flawless all the time, and Chihiro's crippling lack of confidence. Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair has Mikan Tsumiki, the Ultimate Nurse, and Izuru Kamukura, the Ultimate everything. Mikan's skill at medicine allows her to be a pretty good coroner and gives the class vital evidence to solve the first two mysteries (that Byakuya was killed by a skewer instead of a knife, and Mahiru died instantly upon being hit). If she hadn't succumbed to Despair Disease and become the Blackened, she probably could have even unravelled the Chapter 5 mystery that Nagito went to so much trouble to set up. Izuru, meanwhile, could have probably apprehended Junko and prevented the whole franchise from happening... but the medical procedure that gave him all his talent made him an Empty Shell who couldn't be bothered to do anything with it. He ended up letting Junko get away until she unwittingly reawoke his emotions by brutally murdering his love interest. In Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony, Shuichi Saihara is the Ultimate Detective, which remains exceptionally useful in solving murder mysteries. He manages to deduce that one of their own was secretly the Mastermind in Chapter 1 (something that took Makoto and company up to the last chapter to figure out), and in the end he's able to end Danganronpa itself by realizing that both the hope and despair options are false, and winning by refusing to play the game. Miu Iruma is the Ultimate Inventor, which basically ends up enabling her to create anything she wants with the resources she has on hand. This really comes into play in the last two chapters, which reveals she built a set of hammers capable of disabling all electronics they hit (at the cost of limited power for each), a jar that essentially circumnavigates the cameras used by the Mastermind and reinstalling Keebo's weaponry, turning him into a One-Man Army capable of ending the killing game on his lonesome. Literally the only thing preventing her from breaking the plot wide open is that her stupidity and bizarre sense of priorities means she never takes initiative to end the killing game, and her extremely vulgar and arrogant personality means no one wants to work with except when required. Kokichi Oma is the Ultimate Supreme Leader. While he doesn't have access to the Nebulous Evil Organisation he claims to lead, his ability to plan ahead and manipulate others is top-notch and he's a capable lockpicker, allowing the students access to rooms long before they were supposed to. If he wasn't The Friend Nobody Likes, he could probably derail the game himself.

When her original body is destroyed, she can only recover the invisibility once in her second body. In her third body, she regains only her super strength, but at that point she's matched by the Meta. The Meta is already overpowered, so a limit to how many abilities he can use at once is introduced. His first attempt at using Wyoming's Time Distortion upgrade renders its suit unable to power any of its equipment, forcing it to retreat. Meta's armor can't power all of its equipment properly without AI support, which is why Meta runs multiple A.I. fragments at once. This puts an enormous strain of his suit and equipment, making it increasingly energy-inefficient and prone to overloading the more he adds.

Story-Breaker Power / int_920bdb7c	comment	Kill Six Billion Demons has several of these, present in the same universe, with time and philosophy being the primary limits to their power. Omnicidal Maniac Jagganoth is invincible and has Complete Immortality: Through inventive use of the White Art of Lying to the Face of God he has divided the concept of 'Jagganoth can be harmed' from reality itself (he is also ageless). This renders him impossible to deal with, save through removing his other abilities and imprisoning him forever. This, of course, would require subduing him in one form or another first, which is understandably somewhat difficult. Subverted by Mad Oracle Jadis. Her power is being The Omniscient: Having seen the shape of the Universe from the outside, she knows everything inside of it. Only removing her from creation itself would prevent this power. However, rather than breaking the story, Jadis is the weakest character in it. Her omniscience is absolute, including knowledge of her own future actions. To Jadis, the future is as set in stone as the past: She cannot change anything, has no agency, and can't do anything she doesn't already know she'll do. Able to see everything and unable to do anything about it, Jadis has become a Mad Oracle entombed in glass whose dearest wish is to die (while being fully aware of everything that will happen after her death). Royalty, the ultimate Enlightenment Superpower, which turns the user into a being of pure action with no limit to their abilities save those which they impose on themselves; basically, the rules of everything go "screw it, do as you like" to Royalty. Zoss is on the threshold of Royalty, and appears to have used it to set the plot in motion in the first place though handing his Master Key over to Allison. It's also implied he's stuck the Universe itself in a "Groundhog Day" Loop with it until he finds someone with a fresh perspective who can fix the giant mess he made of things: While he could hypothetically solve the story itself with this power if he fully understood it, it's implied heavily the story as we know it only exists because he's already tried and only made things worse.

Stated to be one of the few Servants on Gilgamesh's level, the man possesses Kavacha and Kandala, armor and earrings forged by gods, that reduce all damage: physical, magical or even conceptual, to 1/10 of its original value, and that's before taking into account their natural defense, making him all-but completely immortal. Offensively, he "only" possesses the Brahmanstra Kundala, magical flames that can take the form of any weapon (but preferably a projectile — like a spear). If fired, it will pursue its targets to the ends of the Earth and will cause a destruction that levels countries. On top of that he also has Vasavi Shakti, which requires him to trade away his defenses, but gives him a single-use of an anti-god spear powerful enough to kill even Divine Spirits with ease . Karna is also unable to be physically deceived and sees through the personality of anybody he meets. The only reason the story hasn't even ended in the first volume is because he consumes a massive amount of prana from his Master, so he can't go all out. For now.

Nuidis Vulko in Aquaman (2018) is the best warrior among the Atlanteans, not to mention the one who personally trained both Arthur and Orm. He was also a collector of intelligence and knowledge on the Trident of Atlantis and previous hunts for it. To keep him from overshadowing our protagonists in their fight, Vulko is kept as a peaceful man who relies on diplomacy and doesn't retaliate even when pushed, only serving the plot by serving as Mr. Exposition about the Trident. When he's freed from imprisonment at the climax, he makes the deliberate choice to let Arthur handle the final battle alone. Despite his fellow inmates initially treating him as a Joke Character, it quickly becomes clear that Polka-Dot Man is actually the single most powerful member of the team in The Suicide Squad. The fact that his polka-dots disintegrate whatever they touch means that during the Final Battle, he deals more damage to the Kaiju-sized Starro than anyone else on the Squad before being killed, seemingly to prevent him from singlehandedly finishing the fight. Birds of Prey (2020): Black Canary, the only member of the team with superpowers, doesnâ€™t use her Canary Cry until the final battle and immediately passes out after using it, keeping her from instantly ending the Birds' multiple fights with armies of goons.

Story-Breaker Power / int_978167ea	comment	Showa & Vampire ran into this just with sheer size of its cast, but all the things heaped onto its main characters break things to the point Forgot About His Powers is on all the time. The main character, for example, can change into any Kamen Rider from the first 20 years of the series' existence, along with all their combat experience, and gets a Super Mode that combines all their power and capabilities into one. He's also a super-genius thanks to his cyborg brain, and far and away his group's best fighter because of spending the last 10 years as a member of a villain group. He has time powers that let him heal himself or others and use Super-Speed, and another mode that comes out if actually starts losing and is stronger still. And this is only what he gets by the end of the first arc! There's nothing the cast of Rosario + Vampire could do that he couldn't do better just by himself, and even when they do get to participate, it's almost always when he powers them up by using his transformation ability on them. Now consider there are three other heroes in the fic just as overloaded as that one, and they all get even more powers over the course of the story.

Story-Breaker Power / int_9a539f56	comment	The main plot of PokÃ©mon Super Mystery Dungeon revolves around the powerful Legendary PokÃ©mon being petrified by an unknown force; unsurprisingly, said force has it all and then some with its list of broken powers. Dark Matter can not only mind control PokÃ©mon under loosely defined requirements, but can also bestow them its power of turning PokÃ©mon into stone and feeding off of its victims' life energy. This makes it so any PokÃ©mon under Dark Matter's control, no matter their lack of combat prowess, such as Nuzleaf can effortlessly beat Legendaries such as Entei that the heroes up to that point couldn't even touch without their evolution-granting scarves. Should Dark Matter's targets try to run away or manage to corner its minions, it would just send Yveltal, a Legendary PokÃ©mon with dominion over death, to pull the plug, as the Eon Dragons and the other two Legendary Beasts found out. Dark Matter's nature as The Heartless also means that if it's destroyed, it will just be revived eventually and will attempt again to hurl the world into the sun after it absorbed enough life force. How the heck did Dark Matter not succeed in destroying the world in either of its attempts? It has a weakness in the Tree of Life, and the evolution scarfs turn out to be made from the tree, which renders Dark Matter's powers moot when the heroes are nearby the tree. At the end of the game, Dark Matter becomes a rarity in the franchise by being a villain Killed Off for Real, to the relief of the game's denizens and most likely the franchise's writing staff.

Story-Breaker Power / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: Though, to date, they have only been hinted-at in-game or have been mentioned dripping in heavy metaphor, there exist several "ascended" metaphysical states in the ES universe. (Each has been further fleshed out by developer supplemental texts.) The first of these states is CHIM, where one becomes aware of the nature of Anu's Dream but exists as one with it and maintains a sense of individuality. (Dunmeri Physical God Vivec claims to have achieved this level, while Mankar Camoran in Oblivion claims that the Deity of Human Origin Talos has also achieved it.) Even these works don't make it clear exactly what CHIM is, though the ES lore community posits that it is the realization of being a fictional character in a fictional world, followed by breaking loose from the laws of said world using "powers" and abilities normally reserved for a Player Character (ex. Save Scumming, Pause Scumming, use of the Master Console, use of the Construction Set Level Editor, etc.) Naturally, these abilities make the user appear divine and otherworldly to the mortals of the settings. Included are Vivec flooding the island of Vvardenfell to kill Akaviri invaders, Talos performing a Cosmic Retcon to turn Cyrodiil from a tropical jungle to a temperate forest, as well as both rewriting their own pasts. Take, for example, Vivec's explanation of what happens when he "dies", which sounds suspiciously like reloading a saved game: "Shezarrines" are physical incarnations of the spirit of Lorkhan (whose Imperial name is Shezarr), the "dead" creator god of Mundus, the mortal plane. They most often appear in times of great peril for mankind, aiding mankind by, most often, killing lots and lots of Mer (Elves). Some of the most famous include Hans the Fox (who was one of Ysgramor's 500 companions), Pelinal Whitestrake (who helped the Slave Queen Alessia bring down the Ayleid Empire), and Wulfharth Ash-King (an Eternal Hero who has died and been resurrected at least three times). In each case, the Shezarrine has been one of the most powerful beings to ever walk Tamriel, serving as a One-Man Army with abilities far beyond ordinary mortals. Naturally, being allowed to remain in the plot would create problems for future stories, so they are always killed or otherwise removed after making their initial impact.

To make a long story short, the being who created Arcueid is one of those (TYPE-Moon), and it can do everything Arcueid can do, if not more. Another, TYPE-Mercury, is stated to be one of two beings tied for the position of "being able to kill all of humanity faster than anything else in existence" (though in the present time, ORT is currently asleep, and it isn't expected to wake up for a few thousand years). ORT has been noted to be more powerful than anything else on Earth before the time of Angel Notes... where a whole bunch of TYPES from other planets come to Earth to wipe out humanity, something which it is believed even one of them on their own could accomplish. The World's Strongest Man during the time of Angel Notes, Ado Edem. He possesses an ability called "Slash Emperor" where he creates a titanic sword capable of cutting through realities like a hot knife through a butter. It can one-shot even the TYPES, and in the story Ado Edem defeated TYPE-Jupiter and TYPE-Saturn without breaking a sweat. The trade-off is that Slash Emperor consumes raw material to transform into power: when Ado Edem used it against TYPE-Jupiter, he also created an immense gash in the Earth's crust crossing the entirety of North America.

In 3, Cyber-Elf X (who, again, has barely a fifth of X's original soul) protects the entire Resistance inside its base without any real effort, completely overriding the Dark Elf and Omega's mind control. If X managed to regain his full power, he would be practically unstoppable.

Story-Breaker Power / int_a6543322	comment	Touhou Project fans love to joke that the cast is the most dominant in fiction, with a long list of characters with unique abilities that have staggering applications, or just phenomenal levels of raw power. In canon the Spell Card rules were invented precisely because there were so many of these beings floating around, implemented to prevent the powerful denizens from going all out in combat and allowing weaker beings to stand a chance of winning. Reimu Hakurei can channel Shinto gods to use any of their powers. Furthermore, her Fantasy Heaven ability temporarily causes her to "fly away from reality" and become completely invincible; Word of God is that this ability is only allowed in Spell Card duels because she added a time limit — without it she would be unstoppable. Sakuya Izayoi is one big Shout-Out to Dio Brando above, and as such has the mandatory Time Stands Still ability. On top of that she can also slow time, speed it up, deflate it, compress it, erase it and invoke Temporal Paradoxes, and because of Required Secondary Powers her time manipulation also allows her to manipulate space, doing things like making the Scarlet Devil Mansion Bigger on the Inside and making a Hammerspace pocket filled with infinite knives. In canon she doesn't kill people (anymore), but the third Fantasy Kaleidoscope episode gives a terrifying glimpse of what she's capable of. Remilia Scarlet's ability to manipulate fate is only ever loosely defined, but the fate of people changes just from being around her (for better or worse) and she can apparently see into the future. No-one can be certain whether or not she's using her ability in any particular situation however, making judging its strength that much more difficult. Flandre Scarlet has the power to destroy anything by visualising its "eye" and crushing it in her hand, no matter the object (or person) or the distance between her and the target. Her sister Remilia was so concerned about the damage Flandre's powers could cause that she confined her to the mansion's basement for all of her (500 years long) life. Yuyuko Saigyouji has the power to kill with a thought (aside from the two unkillable characters Mokou and Kaguya mentioned below), can control dead spirits, and is smart enough to see through even Yukari's schemes at a glance. She's immune to exorcism as long as she's bound to the Saigyou Ayakashi, and unsealing her would release one of the only evil creatures in the setting. However, she spends most of her time running her portion of the Netherworld, and rarely takes things seriously when she does get involved in the plot. Yukari Yakumo is a powerful Youkai, a master of Onmyōdō, The Chessmaster with Super-Intelligence and a legion of spies, and a nine-tailed kitsune as her shikigami, but much of her Shrouded in Myth status comes from her power to manipulate boundaries. While in-story this ability has mostly manifested as creating portals, and once as manipulating the border of night and day so that it could be both night and day at the same time, Akyuu writes that it is far more powerful... at least, according to Yukari: Suika Ibuki can manipulate density, allowing her to do things like hurl miniature black holes as weapons, and because of Touhou logic can also grow big, split into multiple smaller copies, turn into mist, or even gather or disperse people (population density). And that's on top of being a oni with enough strength to tear apart and rebuild mountains (and the moon, because thankfully she realized that not having a moon would be bad, so she made a new one the same night she destroyed the old one during a drunken frenzy). Fortunately she's a Boisterous Bruiser more interested in fighting than in actually winning. Eirin Yagokoro, as a super genius once known as "The Brain of the Moon", basically has the superpower of making Artifacts Of Doom. Aside from creating the aforementioned Hourai Elixir (which she may or may not have drunk as well) and much of Lunarian civilisation, her plot in Imperishable Night was to hide Earth from the Moon. She did this by hiding Earth in a pot. In a pot she kept on the Earth. She made a fake moon and sky to stick to the inside of the pot, too, so people wouldn't notice they were suddenly in a world that could fit into the hand of a person standing on the world that was in the pot they were holding in their hand. And it's been implied that she is also Omoikane), giving her the raw power of a high-ranking Physical God. Eirin's sidekick, Reisen Udongein Inaba, has the ability to manipulate waves. Any kind of waves, including mind and electromagnetic waves. She can use it to manipulate light and radio, induce insanity in her line of sight, generate a thousand different beams and who knows what else. However, her crippling cowardice, greed and inexperience conspire to keep her at a Butt-Monkey level. Fujiwara no Mokou and Kaguya Houraisan drank the Hourai Elixir, giving them Complete Immortality and allowing them to regenerate From a Single Cell from any damage, even if their bodies are completely destroyed. The very concept of death has been erased from their beings (meaning if you went back in time to before they drank the Elixir they still couldn't be killed), and the only limiting factor is how much pain they are willing to endure before they just give up. And they can endure a lot, because they spent several centuries repeatedly killing each other to pass the time. Satori Komeiji's mind-reading is already convenient, before even considering that she can use it to copy an enemy's Spell Card and throw them right back. But her sister Koishi sealed away her mind-reading abilities due to Fantastic Racism, and in return got the even more powerful ability of manipulating the subconscious. She's immune to mind-reading of any kind (her sister's included), and is completely unnoticeable even if you're looking right at her, her existence wiped from people's memories afterwards (though not for children). While this means she's an Empty Shell with no desires or thoughts, Byakuren speculates in Symposium of Post-Mysticism that she managed to artificially achieve enlightenment. Utsuho Reiuji controls nuclear fusion, the thing that powers stars. In her debut she created a miniature sun and was preparing to cover the surface with nuclear fire, and afterwards she spends her spare time powering a makeshift fusion reactor. It's a good thing all she wants to do is make her master Satori happy. Watatsuki no Yorihime is basically Reimu if she trained, summoning any god from the (extensive) Shinto pantheon to do her bidding and delivering Curb Stomp Battles to some of Gensokyo's heavy hitters. Hata no Kokoro's ability is manipulating emotions, which she used in Hopeless Masquerade to almost start a civil war in Gensokyo. Fortunately this wasn't intentional and she stopped immediately after she got what she was looking for, but if she started using that power deliberately... The Miracle Mallet can grant any wish the user desires. While there's also a cost proportional to the size of the wish, it isn't to Jackass Genie levels; the only known large scale wish caused tsukumogami to instantly spout up everywhere as a side-effect, some of them becoming Evil Weapons, which didn't interfere with the user's plans at all. Fortunately only inchlings can use it, and the only inchling around is in no hurry to use it again for any big wishes, as she's more interested in using it to make herself larger. Sagume Kishin's power means that when she says anything, the world changes so that whatever she says becomes a lie, which even she recognises as absurdly dangerous so she rarely ever speaks. However, the changes are usually within regular plausibility instead of an instantaneous magical change; for example she tells the protagonists that she's invading Gensokyo in the hopes that it will cause them to stop the reason for her invading (Junko's invasion of the moon). It's worth noting that much of the information we have on these abilities comes from an Unreliable Expositor who incorporates the exaggerations of the youkai themselves into her writings. These characters are ludicrously strong, but the fact that there is a game where everyone throws out the spell card rules to take down a canonically Weak, but Skilled character that ends with that character winning against several of the characters on this list is proof that the spell card rules aren't the only thing keeping Gensokyo from becoming a smoking crater. Much of this perception comes from the fact that Fanon tends to take these exaggerations seriously, when in reality the degree to which many of these assertions are true and what limitations these powers have is unclear. Some of them (such as Remilia's ability to manipulate fate) may not exist at all.

Eventually, Shadow, Sonic, and Silver learn to do the same by using Chaos Control against each other. In Sonic Forces, Infinite gets outfitted with the Phantom Ruby from Sonic Mania, giving him the ability to warp reality. It's later revealed that he can create illusions that warp his victims' perception of reality, but the effects are the same. He repeatedly routs the Resistance armies, and the limits by which he's able to warp reality are ill-defined. Consequently, he never seems to use the Phantom Ruby to its fullest potential in his actual boss fights, preferring to create harmful obstacles and do charging attacks.

In Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition, bards and druids are both spellcasting classes with a pretty sizeable bag of tricks that can solve a lot of problems effortlessly. In the film proper, Edgin and Doric, who are a bard and a druid, respectively, never use spells—Edgin does nothing beyond the abilities of a Badass Normal, and Doric exclusively relies on her Wild Shape ability. This was likely to avoid the party seeming too strong, as well as to make Simon, the group sorcerer, more unique. Those to have played the game may suggest that Edgin and Doric's players either used nonspellcasting variants of those classes, or simply kept forgetting they could use spells.

Avalon, the legendary sheath of Arthurian myth, is a Noble Phantasm that granted immortality and invincibility to King Artoria Pendragon in her life. As per her legend, she lost it before she died, and for this reason she doesn't have access to Avalon when summoned for the 4th or 5th Holy Grail War. When she finally gets Avalon back in the Fate Route, she's able to No-Sell Gilgamesh's Anti-World Enuma Elish and kill him. If she wasn't deprived of her sheath for the majority of Zero and Stay/Night, then even with a weak Master like Shirou there wouldn't be any functional tension in her battles. Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes. As the oldest surviving heroic legend, when summoned as a Servant he is freakishly overpowering. His Gate of Babylon has the original versions of everything recorded in legends (that's not created by somebody who came after him), including legendary weapons, starships created by the gods, and even supernatural wine. Oh, and all of which can be fired at Mach speeds. Theoretically, he could defeat anyone in seconds flat since he has the weapons needed to exploit the weakness of just about every opponent. If all that fails, his original weapon, Ea, can destroy entire planets with one swing. He is, however, held back by his galaxy-sized ego, preventing him from ever fighting seriously, thinking his foes to be 'unworthy' of his true strength. Having killed actual Gods and being acknowledged to be capable of killing an Eldritch Abomination, Gilgamesh is so powerful that the number of things in the whole franchise that are stronger than him can be counted down to one hand. And the real kicker is that, unlike other Servants that are close to his level such as the below-mentoined Karna, Gil has next to no Mana consumption, meaning that if he so deigned he could go full throttle without negatively impacting his master. Ironically, this is exactly the reason he loses to Shirou in the Unlimited Blade Works anime. Gilgamesh relies so much on having the best possible weapon for any situation that he doesn't know how to wield most of his massive arsenal to its full potential, only being averagely proficient with a small dozen or so weapons. When he's finally forced to go mano-a-mano, his swordsmanship is far from matching an actual specialist like Saber, and even when he pulls out Ea his hesitation to use it makes him slow on the draw that Shirou literally disarms him before he can swing it. Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star reflects this weakness of his the best, with his slow melee speed being his biggest downside as a playable character, and during the story proper Karna advises Tamamo to get up-close in order to have the best chance of beating him. Fate/Apocrypha has Karna, the hero of the Mahabharata. Stated to be one of the few Servants on Gilgamesh's level, the man possesses Kavacha and Kandala, armor and earrings forged by gods, that reduce all damage: physical, magical or even conceptual, to 1/10 of its original value, and that's before taking into account their natural defense, making him all-but completely immortal. Offensively, he "only" possesses the Brahmanstra Kundala, magical flames that can take the form of any weapon (but preferably a projectile — like a spear). If fired, it will pursue its targets to the ends of the Earth and will cause a destruction that levels countries. On top of that he also has Vasavi Shakti, which requires him to trade away his defenses, but gives him a single-use of an anti-god spear powerful enough to kill even Divine Spirits with ease . Karna is also unable to be physically deceived and sees through the personality of anybody he meets. The only reason the story hasn't even ended in the first volume is because he consumes a massive amount of prana from his Master, so he can't go all out. For now.

Story-Breaker Power / int_bcadd7cb	comment	Warhammer 40,000: The Primarchs and the God-Emperor are obscenely powerful even for the setting (the first action of Leman Russ after birth was to climb out of a volcano, and later in life all of them casually crushed Greater Daemons), and if they were still around it would devastate the Status Quo Is God so beloved by the writers. Hence they have all, in one way or another, been out of action for ten thousand years, with the Emperor immobilised (possibly dead) and directing the Astronomicon, and the Primarchs either dead, incapacitated, lost, or in the case of the surviving Traitor Primarchs simply content to sit in the Eye of Terror. There is a very good reasons for this, as the one time a Primarch (Angron) decided to do something, he conquered approximately seventy sectors before the Imperium could direct a large enough force against him. The Ultramarines Primarch was eventually brought out of stasis and allowed to speak with the Emperor and take a good hard look at the way the Imperium has been crumbling since his absence. He started working on getting the Imperium back in shape and actually started making progress... but now the galaxy is somehow even worse off, with massive Warp storms cutting off entire systems. The C'tan had as much power in the material realm as Greater Daemons do in the warp (i.e. Reality Warper levels), fed on stars, and commanded vast armies of Necrons which they created in the first place. They caused so many problems with their mere presence that 5th Edition retconned them into having been shattered into pieces by the Necrons millions of years ago, and the C'tan that had been encountered were nothing but fairly mindless, much weaker fragments of the originals. The Tyranids can strip a whole planet of biomass, oceans and atmosphere included, in a matter of months, are effectively limitless (the number of creatures in a swarm is reliant on how much biomass they've consumed, and they've already eaten several galaxies), their Hive Mind projects a shadow in the warp that disrupts psykers and daemons within dozens of light years of it, and most critically they have no Enemy Civil War, unlike every other major threat in the setting. Like the Borg mentioned above there has been no good reason given as to why they haven't already eaten everything in the galaxy and been on their merry way except that they don't travel between systems as fast as other species. The Orks. Just as limitless as the 'nids (they reproduce by emitting spores when they die), they have an instinctive mastery of technology to the point where their teleporters work better than the humans', and the average ork is seven feet tall. They're believed to have been created in order to counter the aforementioned Necrons, and they currently have a Forever War going on with the Tyranids where both sides are evenly matched and getting stronger by the day. The only reason they haven't taken over the galaxy yet is that they have an Enemy Civil War whenever their top leader dies. The War of the Beast was an event where that last one didn't happen long enough for a warboss the size of a building to establish power, meaning they actually started getting smarter and disciplined with better weapons and even diplomats. It took most of the Imperium and one of the Primarchs (one who can't die, at that) to finally defeat him.

Story-Breaker Power / int_bd310eaa	comment	El Goonish Shive: Grace's shapeshifting powers, with her Omega form being the strongest to the point that she was able to effortlessly defeat Damien, the Big Bad of the Painted Black arc and the most powerful character in the comic at the time. Fortunately, she's usually a pacifist who prefers not to fight unless she has to, and many fights either find a way to take her out of it or put her in a situation where she can't fight at full power. Nanase's Angel form enhances her already impressive strength and grants flight, increased speed, high durability, and other useful abilities like mild telepathy. However, she's locked out of all other magic once she uses the spell, and it uses so much energy that she'll be burned out once it ends, preventing her from using magic for anywhere from a few days to a few months. One Monster of the Week even exploits this, tricking her into using the Angel form early in the fight so she can't weaken him first, and planning to stall until the timer runs out. The Angel form is pretty much an "I Win" button, but there are very good reasons why she can't use it too often.

He still has all that might, but if he were to be allowed to use it freely in regular gameplay, he would be too overpowered and make the game much less challenging, henceforth his Character Development means he is now much more prone to restraint. Not to mention that Atreus also needs to shine, which in the game technically means Kratos can't perform anything too high-leveled less Atreus would start suspecting Kratos is a God. Notably, when he shows hints of his true capabilities, he can actually handle Baldur and Magni easier than he did when he was held back by Atreus.

If she hadn't succumbed to Despair Disease and become the Blackened, she probably could have even unravelled the Chapter 5 mystery that Nagito went to so much trouble to set up. Izuru, meanwhile, could have probably apprehended Junko and prevented the whole franchise from happening... but the medical procedure that gave him all his talent made him an Empty Shell who couldn't be bothered to do anything with it.

Story-Breaker Power / int_c62995ba	comment	Child of the Storm: The fic's author is obviously very well aware of this trope, and since the Avengers are, with the addition of Loki and several years to gel as a team, nearly unstoppable, he makes sure that the bad guys spend their time striking from the shadows, arguing that you'd have to be a moron or legitimately insane to think you could take them in a straight fight. As a result, while Thor, Loki, or Wanda could crush Voldemort or almost any of those bad guys who aren't an Eldritch Abomination in a fight, the bad guys are very much aware of this and as such go out of their way to avoid head-on fights, attacking from their hidden base and keeping them away from Harry and his friends. When they finally get their chance to go all-out against the bad guys in the finale, it takes an army of Mooks to even slow them down. When the Red Room try the same trick in the sequel, they're found within hours, in normal time, and only escape because the Avengers were occupied with other matters. Stephen Strange is The Archmage and both a seer and a time traveller, and as such could easily have told the Avengers and SHIELD where to strike, or done so himself. However, when called on this, he explains that had he done so, the protagonists would have been weaker for their lack of experiences, and the bad guys would have survived in hiding to cause more trouble down the line, rather than being drawn out and crushed.

Once you give the heroes a device that can go anywhere and track any kind of crime, the villains don't really have a chance. This led to the plot "Villains Try To Steal The Space Coupe" repeated ad nauseum for a while. When the new creative team started to reintroduce past elements to the current story, one of the first things they did was have Diet Smith tell Tracy that he mothballed the Space Coupe basically because of the "Villains Try To Steal The Space Coupe" factor.

Story-Breaker Power / int_ce1f7b52	comment	The rulebooks for The Dresden Files make suggestions on this front in two ways. In the section on building opposition, most of the guidelines are along the lines of taking your villain and giving them powers equal in cost to the Player Party's. It suggests you create a group of antagonists instead, since as the party gets more powerful, the villain's powers would make them damn near impossible to fight effectively if the model was followednote One character having powers equal to three or four low-level characters is doable; one character having powers equal in cost to three or four high-level characters results in someone with huge magic potential, is impossible to hit, damn near impossible to harm even if you do hit'em, and will heal fast even if you somehow manage to harm them.. It also suggests that Harry Dresden himself might be one, and gives suggestions for taking him out of the picture. Needless to say, Harry's margin comments are less than enthused about it.

Story-Breaker Power / int_d78f90c5	comment	Dragon Ball Multiverse: Universe 16 Vegito Briefs is exactly as powerful as he was in Dragon Ball's canon, and can even become a Super Saiyan 3. His power is so great as a Super Saiyan 3 that everyone in the tournament arena begins floating off the ground just from Vegito powering up. Finally, there are less than a handful of people that can take Vegito on and make him work for a win. He's beaten in his second match by ring-out, both to preserve the surprise of the unnamed opponent that beat him and to give the remaining contestants a real chance to win. Universe 20 Broly is one hell of an Adaptational Badass. His Legendary Super Saiyan form was reworked to constantly increase his power the longer a fight went on, meaning he'd eventually become stronger than whomever he fought if he survives that long. It took Vegito becoming a Super Saiyan 3 in their match for Broly to lose. Universe 4 Majin Buu (named Zen Buu here) absorbed Goku, Vegeta, Trunks, Gohan, Goten, Piccolo, and Bulma in his universe, then went across his galaxy absorbing more people for their knowledge and power. The result makes him one of the most powerful beings participating in this tournament, and one of the few that's strong enough to fight Vegito. Universe 2's Neko Majin and Arale are treated as Parody Sue versions of this trope. Their Rule of Funny powers are used in a serious context during the tournament, making them both extremely powerful Reality Warpers that equal even Zen Buu's magic in potency. Arale hands Universe Android 18 her ass the entire fight, only losing because of a Deus ex Machina. Neko Majin is able to copy everything Universe 18 Gotenks can do, including using the Fusion Dance with only himself to fuse with, the Super Saiyan form, and the Ghost Kamikaze Attack. He isn't harmed by anything Gotenks can do, so Gotenks had to bribe him into giving up the fight.

The attempted reboot of his series, Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X, has Dr. Light state that X can evolve as he fights, explaining how he retains certain powers and upgrades between games. Notably, X5 shows X is capable of fighting Zero to a draw, regardless of whether Zero's empowered by The Virus. The only reason he has problems in battle is his kindness causing him to hold back, and his awful experiences with the robotic battlefield makes him suppress his full power even harder by the minute. Speaking of X, in the later Mega Man Zero series we get several hints of how powerful he became by this point. In 2, we discover that X's lifeless corpse is being used to seal the Dark Elf. We also discover that his soul was split in five pieces: Cyber-Elf X (who possesses the original's personality) and the Four Guardians. In 3, Cyber-Elf X (who, again, has barely a fifth of X's original soul) protects the entire Resistance inside its base without any real effort, completely overriding the Dark Elf and Omega's mind control. If X managed to regain his full power, he would be practically unstoppable.

The ability to create and improve on his own spells, his signature one being a magical Flechette Storm. A Healing Hands technique which works on pretty much anything from wounds to chronic diseases. Summoning several copies (or one very strong version) of his Gnome elemental, who has several devastating abilities of her own. Creating money and precious items from nothing, as all he has to do is create an Instance Dungeon with tough enemies and blast away at them, which helpfully also feeds his... Level Grinding, which means that although most of his allies and enemies surpass him in raw power, he only needs to train up for long enough to catch up. The kicker?

Story-Breaker Power / int_dcdb5ca9	comment	Tsukihime has a few: Thanks to his Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, Shiki kills things in one hit. Period. No matter what, if you have a concept of death, he can kill you. The limiter factor he has during the story is A. no one tells him what he needs to know, B. he thinks killing is wrong, C. initially he can't fight properly unless put in Nanaya mode, D. overuse will implode his mind since a human mind can not continuously perceive death. Also he has a nasty scar that likes bleeding and making him pass out. All of these (except for D) are essentially dealt with by the end of the story, so the sequels so far have given him opponents that he can't simply kill, even if he could beat them. The direct sequel handles things a little more interestingly. Due to story reasons, Shiki outright forgets his ability, and every time he ends up using it the world melts down, sending him back to the first day of the time loop he's in. When he finally remembers his ability, though, he instantly kills the Big Bad of the story with little to no fanfare after a grueling battle detailing how there was no way Shiki could defeat the Big Bad normally. A fully powered Arcueid is one of the most powerful beings in all of the Nasuverse.

Furthermore, it can't be used in court itself, when it would be the most useful. There are also ways around it, as Matt Engarde proves in the second game: he is able to truthfully state "I didn't kill anyone" after arranging for an assassin to murder somebody. There's also the famed Kurain Spirit Channeling Technique, which allows certain individuals to contact the souls of the dead and let them possess their bodies to communicate with the living world again. This might sound like the perfect way to expose murderers—after all, why not just ask the victim who killed them? To prevent the technique from making murder an easily solved crime, it's made clear that only a select few individuals (mostly the Fey family) can perform it, and only after rigorous training (or by simply having immense psychic power inherently). An in-story justification also exists in the form of the DL-6 Incident, a murder case where the police, completely out of leads, asked Misty Fey to try to summon the victim; while the channeling worked, it didn't solve the crime (although that complication wasn't the medium's fault), which turned the public against psychic ability and thus made the Fey clan reluctant to advertise their abilities.

Due to his nature, it is implied that if he were to have access to his full potential, he'd be the most powerful entity on the planet. Demonstrated very clearly in the fifth game where he briefly ascends to this level and destroys the final boss — the manifestation of humanity's evil — with a wave of his hand. However, the data size of a human soul and all of its potential is so massive that Lan's PET, despise being custom-made and constantly upgraded to deal with such a strain, can barely execute it for more than a few seconds, supposedly to avoid Explosive Overclocking and taking MegaMan with it.

Any Arcanum from two dots can do thing which would be considered broken in any other game (for example, absolute immunity to any mundane threats), and from three dots Storyteller needs to start thinking very carefully about how to challenge his players. Adepts and Masters are even more powerful, and bend reality in almost any way they like. And then you have Archmages, who can literally do anything, as long as their rivals and hostile gods don't mind.

Trypticon was likewise reduced in stature to be roughly combiner-sized, allowing him to interact with smaller characters. Metroplex meanwhile was depicted as truly gigantic, but activating him was only done in desperation since he was meant to simply be the core of Autobot City.

Story-Breaker Power / int_ef8bd4a5	comment	Mega Man: The original Blue Bomber himself has the potential to be one. Even though his physical limits are fairly fixed, his retention of Special Weapons is not. The only reason he doesn't retain the ones from every game is because he freely chooses to discard them once they're no longer needed, being a peace-loving hero. With over a hundred weapons thus far, if he'd decided to hold onto them all, even most X-era characters would pale in comparison. Duo, from the Classic series, is perhaps the most powerful character in the entire main continuity. He alone is powered by "Justice Energy", the only counterpoint to Evil Energy which has been all but stated as the base of the Maverick/Zero Virus and when the two clash, it causes destruction on an intergalactic scale. If he wasn't an officer for the universe at large and remained on Earth, or Rock had perhaps copied this off of him, there wouldn't be much of a franchise. X has unlimited potential. The attempted reboot of his series, Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X, has Dr. Light state that X can evolve as he fights, explaining how he retains certain powers and upgrades between games. Notably, X5 shows X is capable of fighting Zero to a draw, regardless of whether Zero's empowered by The Virus. The only reason he has problems in battle is his kindness causing him to hold back, and his awful experiences with the robotic battlefield makes him suppress his full power even harder by the minute. Speaking of X, in the later Mega Man Zero series we get several hints of how powerful he became by this point. In 2, we discover that X's lifeless corpse is being used to seal the Dark Elf. We also discover that his soul was split in five pieces: Cyber-Elf X (who possesses the original's personality) and the Four Guardians. In 3, Cyber-Elf X (who, again, has barely a fifth of X's original soul) protects the entire Resistance inside its base without any real effort, completely overriding the Dark Elf and Omega's mind control. If X managed to regain his full power, he would be practically unstoppable. Both Omega and Dr. Weil in the Zero series repeatedly come into this. When wearing his special armor and harnessing the power of the Dark Elf, Omega has the ability to control every Reploid on Earth. Only X and Zero (due to them technically not being Reploids) are safe from its effects. And even when his armor is destroyed, his true form is that of Zero's original body, itself an incredibly powerful war machine and one of two contenders for World's Strongest Man in the setting (the other being X). Meanwhile, Dr. Weil, for his role in causing the Elf Wars (wherein he harnessed Omega's power to kill off the majority of the population of the entire planet in a few years' time), was "punished" with an immortal cyborg body with a Healing Factor so strong that he can recover from a direct hit by the Ragnarok, and has an unintended side effect of allowing him to fuse with machinery. Even when he's seemingly Killed Off for Real after fusing with Ragnarok and destroyed by Zero, the Mega Man ZX series very heavily implies that Model W — the multiple Artifacts of Doom that can grant massive power boosts to their users in exchange for feeding on their negative emotions and eventually devouring them, and at full power possesses world-ending capabilities — is Weil's consciousness still fused with the fragments of Ragnarok.

Story-Breaker Power / int_f4abd380	comment	BlazBlue: The legendary hero Hakumen is hands down the strongest character in the setting, with the possible exception of Azrael. However, he doesn't truly exist as we understand; he's stuck in another dimension called the Boundary, and the threads binding him to the physical world are tenuous at best, and getting weaker. Hence, he can only access a fraction of his true power. In one of the drama CDs, he absolutely thrashes the two Big Bads of the story with only 15% of his power, but he was transported away before he could finish them off. It's suggested that currently he can only use 40% of his power. If he could use all of it, there probably wouldn't be much of a plot. Central Fiction explains why: Hakumen's body is known to all as the SusanÅ�'o Unit. The truth is it is SusanÅ�'o, as in the Japanese god of storms. Hakumen is not the body's original user. YÅ«ki Terumi is. And he gets it back, killing Hakumen in doing so. Terumi knows everything that the SusanÅ�'o Unit can do and is at full power, and his first act upon regaining his true form is to one-shot five of the most powerful characters in the franchise, including the below mentioned Jubei, without breaking a metaphorical sweat. It only occurs for the finale. The only reason the game doesn't end right there in a bad ending is because Terumi hasn't yet fully bonded with his original body, allowing Ragna to rip his soul back out of it. Jubei too — He's described as the strongest living creature on the planet, and as such has to be injured early on so that he can't just go and solve all the story's problems by himself. Nine of the Six Heroes, who would eventually marry Jubei, also counts; she is probably the most powerful magic user in the series, even the goddess of death and one of the Co-Dragons think so. She can manipulate the elements (though fire is her favourite); control gravity; fly; enhance her physical abilities; control the mind of someone as powerful as Terumi; and, after becoming Phantom, look into alternate timelines, the last of which Terumi abuses like a cheat sheet to successfully play Xanatos Speed Chess with the entire cast. Her magical abilities, in fact, are the reason Jubei is sidelined for a large portion of the series' run. However, this is all mitigated by her nuclear temper and arrogance leading to poor decision making; the fact that she is on some level refusing to follow orders from the bad guys, and her love for her sister holding her back, acting as a Conveniently Timed Distraction for Ragna to deliver a fatal blow on her in their fight.

Story-Breaker Power / int_f6a1016f	comment	The Matrix: The sequels have this problem with Neo, as at the end of the first film he is essentially a god of the Matrix, with the power to do anything he damn well pleases while inside it. Because of this the writers had to considerably tone down his powers from Reloaded onward (going from a Reality Warper to a Flying Brick), and up the villain threat. Of course, at the end of the first film, the writers didn't know if the movie would be popular enough for a sequel, so this is Hand Waved in the sequel as the Agents got an upgrade. The Telephone Teleport requires a specific type of hard line to allow a user to return to their hovercraft, preventing them from conveniently escaping using only a mobile phone. Otherwise, to escape the Matrix, all you'd need to do is grab someone's mobile device and easily escape any dangerous situation. The significance of the hard line is that it represents a reliable sure fire way to jack into the simulation that mobile phones can not replicate. Notably, during The Matrix Resurrections, set when mobile phones have become the norm and there are no more payphones anywhere in the Matrix, the good guys use mirrors to travel instead.

Story-Breaker Power / int_f6a54e75	comment	Kingdom Hearts has Mickey Mouse of all people as this. He's the strongest Keyblade wielder on the side of the light, with years of experience giving him incredible fighting skills and formidably powerful spells that place him in another league compared to all other heroes, including Sora and Riku, although Sora would likely come pretty close when he is using his emotions and fighting at full capacity. He is often left out of the other heroes' struggle in order to ensure he doesn't do anything that makes their victory too easy, and tends to appear and shine mostly near the end or in truly dire situations, spending most of the games doing solo work. Even then, he tends to be scaled down both in gameplay and the literal sense, as having him use his full abilities would have made the fights too easy, and when he does use full strength, his feats such as paralyzing 13 Xehanorts with a single spell, leaving the enormous data of Sora's Heartless helpless, and overpowering 13 Replica Xehanorts firmly place him on this level. Notably, 358/2 Days has a Foregone Conclusion ending and excludes Mickey entirely out of the conflict, as having him on Riku and DiZ's side would have ended things much sooner and also prevented things already decided to happen in II, and without him, the stakes are much higher than ever too.

Story-Breaker Power / int_fb9c177d	comment	Transformers: The first iteration of the brand featured Metroplex and Trypticon, who could transform into entire cities and mobile battle stations. They were later followed by the Headmasters Fortress Maximus and Scorponok, whose toys were larger that those of Metroplex and Trypticon (with Fort Max holding the record for largest Transformers toy ever for many decades). This caused the creators of various Transformers media some headaches, since their sheer size and power both made them difficult to utilise as characters and potentially made any battle trivial. The Transformers had Metroplex and Trypticon be the largest of all Transformers, but also made clear that they were only utilised against each other, explaining that they were otherwise so energy intensive it was extremely difficult to keep them fully powered for long periods of time. Fortress Maximus and Scorponok were likewise created to oppose each other, but spent most of their time in their starship and scorpion modes acting as transport. The Transformers (Marvel) reduced Fort Max and Scorponok to simply being unusually large Transformers (though still smaller than combiners). Trypticon was likewise reduced in stature to be roughly combiner-sized, allowing him to interact with smaller characters. Metroplex meanwhile was depicted as truly gigantic, but activating him was only done in desperation since he was meant to simply be the core of Autobot City. IDW Publishing: Like Marvel, Fort Max and Scorponok were depicted as 'merely' being somewhat large Transformers. Meanwhile, both Metroplex and Trypticon were initially treated as being Shrouded in Myth, and when both characters were added to the cast they mostly spent their time in their city/fortress modes (Metroplex to act as the de facto capital city of a reunified Cybertron, Trypticon to protect the newborn Transformers he carried).
