Line 149:
* This is the entire point behind the architects in ''[[Inception]]''. Their job is to craft dreamworlds that the rest of the teams move through, while at the same time creating mazes to trap and confuse the subconscious projections of the dreamers' minds so as to keep them from attacking. Being architects, however, they can also alter the dreamworld's properties to further confuse and fight the projections, but the more they shift and alter reality, the faster the projections converge, the more violent their responses, and the more heavily they are armed.
* In ''[[The Traveler]]'', Mr Nobody has such an ability whereby whoever hears his "confession", it will become a reality. Pretty broken ability for a ghost.
* Ferris Bueller of ''[[Ferris Bueller's Day Off]]'' appears to be one -- if the movie isn't just Cameron's sickbed fantasy, as some have suggested, it's the only explanation for the kinds of things Ferris is able to pull off without anyone objecting or stopping him. (Then again, if he ''were'' a Reality Warper, why did he need to jump through so many hoops just to get the day off?)

* ''[[Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends]]''
** Goo from ''[[Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends]]'' frequently [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]], [[Subverted Trope|subverts]], and [[Deconstructed Trope|deconstructs]] this trope. She's a little girl who can literally create life by accident. (And somehow she manages not to be too creepy.)
** It should be noted that in this show anyone (at least children) can bring an imaginary friend into being. Goo gets special mention because she's the only kid we've met who runs the risk of doing it ''by accident''. If you consider how it takes some imagination and focus to bring an imaginary friend to life (Terrence having to strain himself to create a red block with arms, though that's [[Dumb Muscle|primarily just because it's Terrence]]), being able to bring dozens to life in detail within a few seconds makes Goo even more impressive.
** Not to mention creating an entire army of them with diverse body types, powers, and personalities...while asleep.
