Question about tier 0

Iv been reading through some crts about tier 0, and I've noticed scans showcasing any "change"(like feelings etc I forget the specifics) disqualify the classification. To me though, that just sounds like a limit based on logic. In the back of my mind I keep thinking that a tier 0 being should be capable of doing the intrinsically impossible

Me and René Descartes against the world or smth, just my ramblings.

If you want a proper answer, it's because change is a consequence of potency. I.e that something can become something else. Which cannot be the case if that something is already maximally actual.

Additionally, T0 is "unmoved" insofar as its Being is numerically identical to its own Activity. Which is different from simply being a static entity.

In a bit simpler terms looking at the Omnipotence page should help you

but I'll just quote the part you are concerned about
Furthermore, due to being immutable and beyond qualities such as time, causality and other orders of events, a Tier 0 cannot do things sequentially or in reaction to something, since even something as simple as changing its mind or its mood would be a change. From the perspective of another character, its power may have effects at differing points in time, but for the Tier 0, all of those would have always been the case, as all possible events are created to happen as such from eternity. Bear in mind, however, that a character merely being described as taking actions is not necessarily a disqualifier for Tier 0, so long as it is made clear by background context that it is not supposed to be literally performing sequential operations from its own perspective.

Hmm, thanks for this
