[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 9340146, member: 6801228"] Yeah, and I just don't get what the difference is. Supernatural, to me, is capable of doing things not possible in this real world of Earth. Your hate and anger giving rise to an undead that hunts down your murderer? That's supernatural. I don't see the difference between doing the supernatural and being supernatural, because supernatural is defined (for me) by actions and what is done. Math is not supernatural. Fractals are not supernatural. In the series I just caught up on, fractals are aspects of the occult, patterns that allow for impossible things. So running an electric current through the Fractal of Heat and activating it allows you to generate endless heat from that source. In that universe... fractals and by definition math (because fractals are just the pattern of a math equation) are supernatural. Because they can act in ways that defy our real-world. BTW, I'd take martials being able to leap 60 ft, that may be the limit of what is possible to prevent issues in combat, I'm just trying to make my point understood on why I don't see this difference.
