Revision as of 10:07, 9 January 2014


  • The Chronicles of Narnia
    • Type 0: All humans characters entering Narnia; Polly, Diggory, the Pevensies initially, Eustace and Jill
    • Type 1: The Pevensies (returning to Narnia), Eustace (when returning to Narnia). Dryads, Naiads, Centaurs, Gryphons, Reepicheep
    • Type 2: The star Ramandu, the wizard Coriakin, Eustace (as a dragon)
    • Type 3: River God/Water Elemental (in Prince Caspian), The Lady of the Green Kirtle
    • Type 4: Jadis/The White Witch [1]
    • Type 5: Tash, Father Time
    • Type 6: Aslan
    • Type 7: The Emperor Over The Sea
  • The Dresden Files
    • Type 0: Average humans.
    • Type 1: Low level magical humans, Murphy, Marcone, Hendricks, Charity Carpenter, Daniel Carpenter
    • Type 2: Molly, White Court Vampires (tapping into their powers), Knights of the Cross (most of the time. Can verge on type 4 when 'on the clock'), Red Court Vampires, Harry (in Books 1 and 2), members of the Fellowship of Saint Giles (when tapping into Vampire powers), Ghouls, Sigrun Gard, Hexenwulfen, Werewolves, Mouse (could be a type 3. No one knows the full extent of his powers), Kincaid
    • Type 3: Harry (after Taking a Level In Badass in Book 3), most White Council Wardens, the nobility of the Red Court, the Knights of the Faerie Courts, most Denarians, Faerie Nobles, Corpsetaker, Super Ghouls, Loup Garou, the Nightmare, young Black Court vampires
    • Type 4: The Senior Council, Cowl, Maeve and Lily, Lea, Knights of the Cross 'on the clock', Odin, Murphy at Chichen Itza, Bob, Evil Bob, Nicodemus, most Angels, Harry at Chichen Itza with the power of the Winter Knight combined with an extra power up from Mab, the Lords of the Outer Night, the Red King, the Skinwalker, the Archive
    • Type 5: Mab, Titania, The Erlking, Dragons are at least here (Word of God says they can take Mab), the Darkhallow can raise someone to this level
    • Type 6: Uriel, other Archangels (Fallen and otherwise), The Mothers of Winter and Summer, Mister (theoretically. Word of God says we haven't run into anything that could kill him yet, and in the Sight he looks the same way as he always does).
    • Type 7: God
  • Empire of the East and the Books of Swords
    • Type -1: Mark in the First Book of Swords, Adrian in most of Woundhealer's Story.
    • Type 0: Most civilians. Rolf in most respects. Princess Kristin once she gives up her magical abilities.
    • Type 1: Ben of Purkinje, General Rostov, Jord, Denis, Yambu, Zoltan, Sir Andrew, and Duke Fraktin. Baron Doon, Mewick, and Chup fall at the high end of this level, given their combat skills.
    • Type 2: Mark, once he has realized his power over demons. John Ominor, given his ability to teleport, and his extreme longevity. Som the Dead might also fall here, or perhaps in type 3. Anyone wielding a Sword would fall at least here.
    • Type 3: Most wizards, although there is a lot of variation among them. Wood is surely at the very highest end of this level, as might be Adrian once he completes his magical training, although it is possible that either might actually be at the low end of the level 4. Grey would also fall at the higher end of this scale, as, presumably, would Karel. Loford, Vilkata, Radelescu, Mitspilier, Blue-Robes, and Dame Yoldi would also fit in here.
    • Type 4: Elementals, djinni, and most demons, probably including Zapranoth, and certainly including Akbar. Draffut, plus Ardneh before he acquires the magnetohydrodynamic core of the fusion power lamp.
    • Type 5: Ardneh after he gets the gem, and Orcus. Probably the gods too, although they might fall at a very low type 6. This is debatable, however, since Draffut, who was not quite a match for Zapranoth, and would clearly never have been a match for Orcus or Ardneh, was roughly a match for Mars. So maybe the gods were actually also type 4.
    • Type 6: The Emperor.
  • Heralds of Valdemar
    • Type -1: Herald-Chronicler Myste, Kechara, Karal (post-Mage Storms)

    • Type 2: Heralds (with useful Psychic Powers), Bards, priests, Change-children, Companions, Shin'a'in Swordsworn, Tarma, Alberich (before and after being Chosen), Karal, Kerowyn
    • Type 3: Mages, Healers, Talia (when using her Mind Rape abilities), Firecats, Solaris, Grove-born Companions, divine avatars, Thalhkarsh, gryphons, any wielder of Need, colddrakes
    • Type 4: Vanyel Ashkevron, Mornelithe Falconsbane, high-end Adept-level mages, the Guardian of Iftel, Lavan Firestorm, Thalhkarsh during his ascension to divinity
    • Type 5: Urtho, Ma'ar in prehistory, Emperor Charles during his Final Strike.
    • Type 6: The Goddess, Vkandis Sunlord, the Wind Lords of Iftel (according to earlier books, it gets more complicated later).
  • The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy
    • Type -1: Marvin
    • Type 0: Humanity, Arthur Dent initially, Zaphod Beeblebrox, Trillian
