Strength is one of the 92 common Potens , found primarily in the Body Aspect. It improves the natural power of the muscles, strength of bones, and connections of the ligaments. This provides a bonus to direct physical power without ripping the body apart. 

Strength has different effects if the body aspect doesn't have muscles. All such effects provide the same function as it would to an entity with musculature. Ethereals can assert a greater amount of physical Poten with a boosted Strength Poten.

In systems of power with a quantifying aspect, the Strength Poten is instead called the Strength Statistic. It has the same effect as the true Strength Poten.

Strength thresholds naturally fill slowly through any form of physical activity. Like all other common Potens, strength scales linearly until reaching the next rank, at which point it resets. Each grade represents an additional boost in power, up to 10x at SSS-Grade, 15x at Omega-Grade, and 20x at Supreme-Grade.

Also like all common Potens, any System of Power with the quantifying aspect shows each grade as an 10-fold exponential growth, making them scale logarithmically.

​

Strength is improved by a very small amount by Ki or EXP, and a large amount by Chi or X.

Generic Poten Particles can be converted into Strength Poten Particles in a 1:1 ratio through use of a Meditation Technique.

The Ki and Chi that's used to improve strength is naturally converted into Strength Poten Particles, which is then stored in the Void Between Aspects. The amount of stored particles determines the raw power of the Strength Statistic.

The strength Poten, like most other common Potens, can be found in miniscule quantities throughout the ambient energy of any inhabited world. It's densest around the body of an entity.

The strength Poten can be seen around strength-focused ascenders as early as the Lead Rank. At that rank, it's visible as a nearly-invisible red emanation surrounding the entire body. As the ascender reaches higher, the emanations become more solid, eventually clouding the form to those without arcane senses.

​

When an entity dies, the accumulated Strength Poten Particles held in their Void Between Aspects are released into the air around them. That energy is slowly converted back into generic Poten Particles.

Strength Poten Particles are only converted into Generic Poten Particles through physical contact, so if an entity dies in a location with low Generic Poten Particles the released Strength Poten Particles are converted far more slowly.

If Strength Poten Particles reach an Isaz density, they can turn to into Liquid Strength Poten. If they reach Mannaz Density they may become a Strength Poten Crystal.

​

Strength is commonly chosen as a focus Poten due to Systems of Power with the Interface and a Quantifying Aspect allowing access from the moment an entity reaches Tin Rank. This makes worlds with such systems have a small possibility to not have any Generic Poten Particles in their atmosphere instead having exclusively Strength Poten Particles. This is because of the Natural Law of Innate Poten Conversion.

​

The Strength Poten can condense when combined with Mana, Essence, and a small amount of Ambient Authority to create Hamstring Stones, a form of Relic.

Many General Concepts and other Relics improve the Strength Poten. The most notable of these are the Strength Conception and Strength Affinity.
