  1. Life Energy [Ki, Chakra, Hamon, etc]: This force is a tangible energy inside every living being, with its major focus being in the center of the body. By drawing it out, an individual is able to manipulate it and use it outside the body. Life Energy can be used for many different techniques. Because there are physical limits to the strength of the body itself, it is necessary to increase one's Life Energy to overcome this barrier and become stronger. Usually, the more concentrated the masses are, the more time the user requires to draw it out by powering up. When fighters gather Life Energy, they are able to gain enhanced strength, speed, endurance, and can increase the power of their attacks to inflict greater damage to opponents. Normally, the more the Life Energy is increased, the harder it is to control, so Life Energy control is also important. Energy can be lost when the user sustains injuries. Training Life Energy is the only kind of supernatural energy that has the side effect of increasing your defense against Basic as you train it, although this is the only supernatural force that does not have a way of dealing LAW damage, instead dealing more powerful Basic damage in conjunction with it's own damage.
  2.  
  3. World Energy [D&D Magic, LOTR Magic, GS Magic, etc]: This force is an energy that is present equally throughout the universe, although it is invisible to those who have not trained themselves to see it. To draw upon it, the user must express their desire to use it and explicitly communicate with the universe in some way. Skilled World Energy users are able to do this with their mind or voice, while less skilled World Energy users must create runes in the air (think Doctor Strange) or even draw symbols on the ground (Fullmetal Alchemist). While World Energy is the one Supernatural Force that has difficulty with defense, it is also the only Supernatural Force that can deal BREACH damage when it is completely mastered.
  4.  
  5. Mind Energy [The Force, Stand Power, CPh4 Users, etc]: This force is an energy that can only be utilized by sentient creatures. Users of Mind Energy draw upon energy inherent to their mind and use it to exert their will upon the world around them. This is the force with the weakest starting point but the most potential for growth, as powerful Mind Energy users are able to deal specific but powerful types of LAW damage that rival that of World Energy, as well as deal devastating Basic damage that even Life Energy users struggle to do. This is the only supernatural force that users are typically born into-- Not everyone can become a Force User, or handle the strain of manifesting a Stand, for instance. This is the only Supernatural Force that has the side-effect of increasing the intelligence of the user as they train it.
  6.  
  7. Basic [Pierce, Slash, Impact, etc]: These forces are mundane and are exerted by traditional gunfire and melee weaponry.
  8.  
  9. Law [Electromagnetic, Temperature, Nuclear, Chemical]: These forces, while exotic, are grounded in science and are not supernatural in nature. They are essentially a more powerful version of Basic, bypassing most supernatural defenses. Ishikawa's prison system utilizes this kind of force to dampen and even nullify the expression of the three types of Supernatural energy, as well.
  10.  
  11. Breach Energy [Void, Dark Matter, Eldritch, Dimensional, 40K Chaos]: This force is unnatural and powerful, decimating all three schools of Supernatural energy with ease. This is by far the rarest type of energy, it's users typically being those who were cast out. Strangely enough, powerful concentrations of LAW and BASIC are obscenely good at damaging BREACH users, as well as nullifying their attacks.
  12.  
  13. In the event that two energy types collide or interact in some way, use this as a brief guide:
  14.  
  15. World Energy NULLIFIES Life Energy.
  16. Life Energy OVERPOWERS Mind Energy.
  17. Mind Energy DISRUPTS World Energy.
  18. All of the above are ANNIHILATED by Breach.
  19. Law and Basic can be concentrated in large amounts to DISPEL Breach, but are generally weak against the three schools of supernatural damage, being most effective against Magic, but that isn't saying much.
  20.  
  21. Of course, nothing here means that a Ki master on the level of a Super Saiyan God would always lose against a Hogwarts student, or that a man with a big gun would be able to kill Cthulhu. This is simply a guide as to what should happen when two equally powerful but different types of supernatural energy come into contact with each other. Take individual character skill and power with their respective type of energy into account when using this guide.
