I need to know a super power name

I’m writing a book and I want my character to have the superpower of making anything she desires come true if she concentrates hard enough. Would anyone know the scientific name for that?

Isn’t that moving things with your mind or something

The closest thing I can come up with would be psychomanifestiation.

Obviously, It’s combining “psycho” - to do with thought,
with “manifestation” - to make evident or certain by showing or displaying.
This would be accurate if the character was creating things from their mind such as there now being a forest where there was none before, or the creation of say, a hydra to do the fighting or something.

Alternatively would be psychomaterialisation. That would be more accurate if the things desired were more to do with matter, such as conjuring up a bridge or something.

Hope this helps. :)

I vote to have Dr. Ralph be in the book. He could be the boss of your super hero’s alter identity. Like the boss of Clark Kent or the boss of Perter Parker. Or he could be the Dr. who the television reporters consult as an expert when the super hero first emerges.

Psychogenesis seems to be the best answer I think.

Telegenesis means to create from a distance. Psychogenesis means to create with the mind. I love the term! lol.

But the Character has to concentrate to make anything of her desire come true in life. I think it’s more of a will power. Willing something into happening.

The only example I can think of is if anyone of you read Twilight and have already read the 3rd book (breaking dawn) and one of the Witnesses that stand up to the Volturi is called Siobhan, that’s the closest I can get.

projection or conjoring…. these are certain powers from the tv show Charmed
Projection - think of something and it can either change, alter, or create abything
Conjoring - this was more to do with drawing pictures, concentrating and then it comes true, but same concept.
hope i was some help :)
