[[!meta title="metaphysical energy"]]
Metaphysical Energy is a type of energy present only [[between Reality
and Flux|concepts/pathways]], and in [[dims/heaven]]. It is a pure
type of energy capable of manipulating the fabric of Reality. Heaven
is composed entirely of Metaphysical Energy. It is sometimes referred
to as *MP Energy* or just *MP*.
# Physical Manifestation
The physical manifestation of Metaphysical Energy is dependent on the
perception of free will. Thought is capable of bending reality due to
its nature, so if someone is able to doubtlessly conceptualize "magic"
as working one way, it will become true as long as they're in contact
with an artifact.
## Deceiver Universe
In the [[Deceiver Universe|dims/deceiver]], Metaphysical Energy is
commonly believed to manifest in one of two forms: Weak Energy, and
Real Energy. These concepts were given to humans by [[chars/hermes]].
Notable subversions of these concepts include [[stories/deceiver]] and
[[stories/cgdmm]].
### Weak Energy
Weak Energy (also called "Mana") is a multi-colored matter that is
only active in a supercritical fluid phase. When it transitions, it
liquifies and becomes an inert, nonconducting dark orange substance.
Weak Energy manifests as a charging counterpart to [[Light
Ink|concepts/lightink]].
Weak Energy can be created by a [[concepts/contract]] or certain
[[Flavum Mode|concepts/magic/modes/flavum]] [[concepts/magic/methods]]
(which are most common in Mana Absorbers.)
### Real Energy
Real Energy (also called "Flux Mana") is a golden, milky superfluid
which does not transition. When contact between Real Energy and
thought is made, the thought is manifested in Reality, no matter the
scale. Real Energy has only once manifested in Reality (in a rather
limited form) as [[Liquid Immortality|concepts/liquidimmortality]].
