Even interacting with them normally may prove virtually impossible. Mechanistic causality and counterfactual-manipulative causality: recent insights.

Type 5: Causality Transcendence: Characters with this type of Acausality transcend the normal boundaries of cause and effect, existing outside of the causality of a system. Examples: Riven of a Thousand Voices ( Destiny), Lord Drakkon ( Power Rangers).This grants them resistance to abilities such as Causality Manipulation, Fate Manipulation, and Precognition, among others. But for others it can mean being beyond the concept of time or causality. This varies with characters, for some it simply means being unaffected by changes of the past. Type 4: Irregular Causality: Characters with this type of Acausality operate on a different and irregular system of cause and effect than regular causality. Acausality is defined as the ability to exist outside of causality, or the natural flow of manipulation defined by cause and effect. Examples: Lavos ( Chrono), The Shrike ( Hyperion Cantos), Solaris ( Sonic the Hedgehog).This also grants them immunity to changes in the past. Type 3: Temporal Permanence: Characters with this type of Acausality are incredibly difficult to kill, as other versions of themselves - from other points in time and/or from other universes - can survive the destruction of the 'original' and act in their place. In essence, they are able to choose their own fates, but they remain just as vulnerable at the point in time in which they do exist. This means they cannot be affected by changes to the past, while also making them resistant to Precognition that works by viewing the future, as they do not exist within it, and Fate Manipulation, for the same reason. Causal inference is the process by which one can use data to make claims about causal relationships. Type 2: Temporal Singularity: Characters with this type of Acausality do not exist in either the past or the future, only the present. Causality Causality refers to the relationship between events where one set of events (the effects) is a direct consequence of another set of events (the causes). Examples: The Doctor ( Doctor Who), Goku Black with Time Ring ( Dragon Ball), Sol Badguy ( Guilty Gear).Type 1: Time Paradox Immunity: Characters with this type of Acausality are rendered immune to changes in the past and standard temporal paradoxes, but remain just as vulnerable in the present and can be affected by normal Causality Manipulation and similar abilities. For some characters, this means not being affected by changes to the past for others, this means defying all logic and acting with disregard for traditional causality. This process allows researchers to explore causal relationships between IVs and dependent variables (DVs), which. Acausality is the ability to act unrestrained by conventional cause and effect, on a scale that varies depending on the character. Experimental manipulation describes the process by which researchers purposefully change, alter, or influence the independent variables (IVs), which are also called treatment variables or factors, in an experimental research design.
