An Imaginary Question

[Anypersonburnimagines]

People — or rather, sentient beings — are not capable of fully visualizing the form of something that arises solely from imagination. We can, for instance, evoke the image of an apple, but it would be impossible for us to clearly perceive its texture, taste, weight, color, or shape in a manner indistinguishable from reality. In this sense, according to the intelligence tiering system of the Wiki, at what level would an individual be placed if endowed with the ability to imagine an apple — or any object — with absolute fidelity to reality, mentally reproducing all of its sensory details?

I think this qualifies for Perception Manipulation(or similiar ability) rather than being an intelligence feat. Not sure tho.

Why do you think that instead of being an act of intelligence, it would be 'Perception Manipulation'?

Apologies for the late response.
Well… because a feat like that isn’t inherently intelligence related. Imagine being so smart that just by thinking about electricity, you can cause a lightning bolt to strike someone. What IQ would that even require? It is unquantifiable. And it is not unquantifiable cuz it is too high on the IQ scale, but rather it is not actually an intelligence feat at all and is something entirely different.
As for Perception Manipulation, my thought process was that you’re essentially fooling yourself, your mind and hormones into making the sensation of something imaginary feel real.

That would be more like Perfect Memory in a limited form, rather than an Intelligence feat, or so I think.
