Special Abilities:

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Accelerated Development (Passive - Physical Stats and Abilities; Mages have the ability to increase their magical power and abilities through even tasks such as gaming), Acausality (Non-Linearity; Inhabitants of The Virtual World experience time and causality differently from normal beings; In Hololive, both causality and time is experienced in a fashion where past, present and future doesn't occur linearly and paradoxes result in splitting of timelines, preventing casual paradoxes), Non-Corporeal (It’s stated that V-Tubers are virtual in nature, with those being native to The Virtual World possessing no corporeal existence), Information Manipulation (Reality is viewed as being purely comprised of data and information from the perspective of beings inhabiting The Virtual World, meaning that manipulation of The Virtual World is also control over the fundamental information that makes up the world)

Murasaki Shion has access to black magic, which gives her the following abilities: Magic (Has access to Black Mage, being one of the most gifted practitioners of said field of magic), Creation (Has the ability to create things from nothing, such as boxes that grant the wishes her those who request things of it), Reality Warping (Shion can alter reality to her desire, with items such as her wishbox being extensions of her reality altering abilities), Explosion Manipulation (Her magic is capable of causing explosions, even ones potent enough to blow up a planet), Sleep Manipulation (Sleep Spell allows Shion to put opponents to sleep indefinitely), Time Manipulation, Time Travel (Time Magic allows Shion to control time in the fashion she wants, including travel through time and space), Existence Erasure (Capable of erasing objects from existence with her magic, such as houses), Statistics Amplification (Mages are capable of amplifying themselves with magic), likely Necromancy (Has comparable magic to Rushia and has learned from her, meaning it's likely she has the ability to animate the dead and control them at will)

V-Tubers have access to Idol Power, a source of power that grants them the following: Social Influencing (V-Tubers have the natural charisma to talk to other beings, convincing them to follow them and watch their streams), 4th Wall Awareness, Information Analysis (V-Tubers can draw attention to their fictionality and that they are part of a narrative. Hololive runs on metafictional elements, which allow V-Tubers to know about opponents through reading a short summary of them as represented by character introduction bios), Accelerated Development (Training, Battle & Leveling - Physical Stats & Abilities; It's shown consistency that V-Tubers are capable of learning at rapid paces and drawing out inner power at faster rates than normal; An example of this is Mio, Matsuri and company were able to overpower their imposters with ease despite the same imposters giving them a good fight prior. Their growth even visualized and treated akin to RPG progression), Toonforce (V-Tubers are portrayed as having toon force qualities, with their mannerisms being cartoonish and exaggerated, operating off the rule of funny), Energy Manipulation (V-Tubers have the ability to channel and manipulate the energies present in the magical crystals connected to the energy source, which is also exemplified by Miko and Haato being capable of producing attacks comprised of energy on a consistent basis), Teleportation (Idol Power allows one to teleport, as confirmed by Amelia Watson), Light Manipulation, Aura (Idol Power can manifest itself as light and even emanate outwards as an aura), Non-Physical Interaction (Idol Power can allow one to interact with souls, shadows, immaterial objects such as emotions like malice and conceptually nonexistent entities such as Takodachi's, whom of which are composed of The Void), Creation, Pocket Reality Manipulation (V-Tubers are capable of generating objects and weapons into being, akin to "minecraft" as implied in Hololive's crossover with Azur Lane. This extends to creating and manipulating entire "servers" {Such as Resource World}, of which are confirmed to be actual worlds of varying size), Regeneration (High-Godly; Scales to V-Tubers like Uruha Rushia and Sakura Miko, whom of which could come back after being turned into a Tetris block and reduced to nothing. Korone is capable of coming back after being immediately erased by Mio and she even claimed she could erase Subaru, a metaphysical being who is a living thought. Aqua could regenerate despite her body being gone and her soul being crushed by Kanata), Law Manipulation, Explosion Manipulation (Idol Power can allow one to adjust the rules of entire "servers", which are pocket spaces. V-Tubers such as Fubuki and Subaru are capable of creating laws where if someone loses, the opponent and their friends explode instantly), Immersion (Idol Power can grant one to the power to enter fictionalized worlds such as video games, blank canvases and 2-D drawings), Space-Time Manipulation (Idol Power can control spatial dimensions, being able to switch freely between a 2nd and 3rd dimensional existence. Resource Worlds that are created have their own flows of space and time), Conceptual Manipulation, Absorption (V-Tubers are capable of absorbing concepts, as evident by V-Tubers having the ability to consume "That", the concept of "something" in Hololive. Rushia was able to absorb Kanata into herself, with Angels being abstract beings who embody hope and being conceptually death similarly to Mori Calliope and Death-Sensei), Immortality (Type 5 & 11; V-Tubers are exempt from death, as V-Tubers don’t go to The Underworld {where beings go to officially die} and instead regenerate or some other process occurs. It's shown many times that V-Tubers can reincarnate to different worlds or in different bodies whilst retaining the memories of who they were), Soul Manipulation (Idol Power is capable of vaporizing the souls of other beings. V-Tubers are capable of swapping souls with others, as shown here and here), Plot Manipulation (Idol Power can interrupt the narrative and direct it in their own way, even completely ending the story if desired, which is shown with AKZi, Mio and many others), Negation (Idol Power can negate the regenerative properties and resistances of V-Tubers, with Idol Power specifically bypassing a V-Tuber's High-Godly Regeneration and their innate immortalities. V-Tubers are capable of killing Ships beyond their ability to regenerate and come back), Memory Manipulation (V-Tubers have the ability to use a “Forget Beam", which makes others forget things, even down to the person who used the move on them or their own identity), Biological Manipulation, Size Manipulation V-Tubers can revert their sizes being altered, such as Okayu and Aqua being reduced to tiny. Despite being lolified, V-Tubers such as Korone, Mio and Okayu were able to revert back to normal), Sealing (Metaphysical; V-Tubers have the ability to seal things away, including abstract concepts such as the evil side of hospitality)

Extreme Temperatures (V-Tubers can survive in hot temperatures such as burning celestial bodies and other places like the bottom of the ocean with high pressure. Okayu and Korone can no-sell the heat of an exploded sun. V-Tubers such as Ayame can endure being burned by the sun and it's shown that V-Tubers can no sell extreme heat), Ice Manipulation, Absolute Zero (V-Tubers can resist hits from Fubuki's ice, which reach absolute zero temperatures), Magic (V-Tubers have shown to be able to resist the effects of magical spells from Shion and other mages), Reality Warping, Empathic Manipulation, Existence Erasure, Law Manipulation (V-Tubers should have comparable resistance to "Content" like Kizuna A.I, another V-Tuber who possess Idol Power and thus has resistance to it by virtue), Spatial Manipulation (V-Tubers such as Fubuki, Matsuri and many others resisted Purifier's spatial altering singularity), Soul Manipulation (V-Tubers and their attacks can hit on a spiritual level, with Idol Power being capable vaporizing one's soul), Death Manipulation (None of Rushia's death spells are able to work on V-Tubers. Those imbued with Idol Power are comparable to beings who can exist in The Underworld, which is the land of the dead), Negation (V-Tubers can still regenerate after being hit with one of their own attacks, which is capable of permanently killing V-Tubers or Ships), Radiation Manipulation (V-Tubers survive in close proximity to a star, where radiations are extremely potent. V-Tubers are capable of traveling through Star Clusters, which are high in radiation), Disease Manipulation (V-Tubers can survive infections and viruses, as noted by Ayunda Risu and Yozora Mel being fine despite being infected by Ollie's zombie infection. Chloe is capable of surviving the spores of mushrooms growing from her head), Corruption, Mind Manipulation, Madness Manipulation, Information Manipulation & Conceptual Manipulation (Those who are exposed to The Void/Shadow Realm will be corrupted in the same way Ina was, with it corrupting both the body and mind. V-Tubers such as Amelia Watson and Korone are capable of surviving in it. The act of being erased in Hololive involves the complete erasure of all aspects that define one's existence, including their mind, body, soul, the "information" that makes up reality and the concept that defines one's existence)

Destructive Ability: Dwarf Star Level, likely Red Dwarf Level, at most Solar System Level (Official bios state that Shion's power is potent enough to exert power capable of exploding the entire earth and she also states this in her character intro, where she threatens to blow up the planet. Despite being treated as among the weaker characters in Hololive, she should still be on par with a casual Akai Haato and also replicating the same magnitude of planet destruction). Varies. (Depends on how much magic Shion is empowered with), Multi-Solar System Level (Her magic is capable of amplifying her power, enough to harm other V-Tubers such as Aqua, whom of which should be comparable to Inugami Korone and Nekomata Okayu in durability) to Megaverse Level via Magic (Through empowering herself with magic, she could fight Coco)

Lifting Ability: Class 1 (Should be no weaker physically than Pekora's Hololive ALT counterpart, who can carry carrots that are twice her own size)

Striking Ability: Dwarf Star Class, likely Red Dwarf Class, at most Solar System Class (Should be comparable to the likes of casual Akai Haato and also replicating her magnitude of planet destruction. Stated to be capable of destroying the world many times, by official bios and even herself, of which she can even do on-screen). Varies.

Durability: Dwarf Star Level, likely Red Dwarf Level, at most Solar System Level (Should be comparable to Akai Haato, who could endure her level of destruction of the planets. Can survive the destruction of earth, which yielded this much energy). Varies. Multi-Solar System Level via Magic (Capable of enduring attacks from other V-Tubers such as Aqua and Fubuki. Both of which are capable of harming V-Tuber with similar durability to Inugami Korone and Nekomata Okayu) to Megaverse Level (Capable of enduring hits from Coco through empowering herself with magic)

Other Attributes[]

List of Equipment: None Notable

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Magic: Murasaki Shion is capable of utilizing and channeling magic, a fundamental force of nature that exists across the multiverse to varying degrees. In Hololive, magical forces can be manifested in a multitude of ways, ranging from alteration of reality, concentrated in energy form to create magical blasts and countless other forms that depend on the skill of the user and their adept knowledge of the forces of magic

Black Magic: Shion has the ability to utilize a school of magic often referred to as "Black Magic", which is a type of magic associated with demons. At it's core, it's magic that focuses on destructive and even demonic element, with the objective of using Black Magic being to cause as much destruction and or harm to the opponent as possible
Necromancy: Shion has access to a form of magic called "Necromancy", which involves being able to raise and control the dead. This ability is just an extension of necromancer's ability to manipulate both life and death, with users of necromancy being capable of utilizing death spells that bring about instant death
Time Magic: A type of magic that focuses on one's manipulation over time and space. We've seen this magic used with Shion, whom of which was able to control time itself or even travel through it at will

Extra Info: Hololive has a very loose definition of canon and it is noted that crossovers with the brand are considered canon, with many events referencing events that occur within Hololive and vice versa for Hololive, the worlds they interact with. This means that feats and stuff that happen there are applicable to V-Tubers overall.

Here is a blog that justifies the ratings of Hololive and explains why they are rated as powerful as they are
An explanation of how V-Tubers consistently scale to one another and how it's treated in-universe
The resistance to “Content” mainly stems from scaling from Kizuna A.I, who is not a Virtualand resident yet still possesses resistance to “Power of Creation” similarly to beings native to Virtualand. This scales back to V-Tubers given they are similar in nature as far as power source and physiology
The physical power of Shion and other mages who rely on magic generally varies and is not consistent, thus her tiering is to account for the different interpretations
To Elaborate on V-Tuber's Type 5 Immortality: This stems from the fact that in Hololive, the land of the dead is a concrete and tangible place. It's referred to as The River Styx and it's a part of The Underworld. The immortality comes from the fact V-Tubers don't go there upon death and with demons, they even naturally live there. The only way to keep them there is through forcibly taking their souls and bounding them there, as shown with The Soul Snatching Camera. Their nature as Deathless is also proven by the fact Rushia's death spells don't work on V-Tubers.
