Small Size

Some characters are significantly smaller than average, affecting their physical parameters such as strength, speed (although many can move quickly within the human body), and durability. However, small characters can often bypass durability by targeting vital parts and can evade physical attacks from larger characters, similar to viruses and bacteria. This is referred to as having a Small Size.

This differs from Size Manipulation, where a character can change their size at will. Those with Small Size cannot inherently control their size.

Types of Small Sizes:

• Type 0 (Dwarf): Characters far smaller than an ordinary human, no larger than 1 meter tall.
  • Examples: Dobby (Wizarding World), Jack-Jack Parr (The Incredibles), Hijack (Paranatural), Omi (Xiaolin Showdown)
• Type 1 (Small Animal Sized): Characters the size of small animals, no larger than 50 centimeters tall.
  • Examples: Kirby (Kirby), Pikachu (Pokémon), Kyubey (Puella Magi Madoka Magica), Spongebob Squarepants (Spongebob Squarepants)
• Type 2 (Bug-Sized): Characters much smaller than typical mammals, usually bugs and insects, no more than a few centimeters tall.
  • Examples: Navi (The Legend of Zelda), Sheldon J. Plankton (Spongebob Squarepants)
• Type 3 (Microscopic): Characters no more than a millimeter in size, becoming smaller than the human eye can see.
  • Examples: White Blood Cell (Cells at Work!), The Lovers (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure), Thrax (Osmosis Jones)
• Type 4 (Molecular): Characters no more than a micrometer in size, smaller than most microscopes can view, interacting with particles in larger organisms.
  • Examples: Viruses such as Bacteriophages, prions such as SCP-008 (SCP Foundation)
• Type 5 (Atomic): Characters no more than a nanometer in size, smaller than even advanced electron microscopes can see, generally unaffected by conventional attacks.
• Type 6 (Sub-Atomic): Characters no more than 53 pm in length, the size of a Hydrogen atom, where quantum mechanics begin to significantly affect them.
• Type 7 (Elementary): Characters comparable in size to the nucleus of an atom or elementary particles such as protons, neutrons, and electrons.
• Type 8 (Quantum): Characters near or at the Planck length, comparable in size to quantum foam or strings. Characters smaller than this could inhabit lower dimensions and would be imperceptible.
  • Examples: Cueball (xkcd)
• Type 9 (Lower-Dimensional): Characters inhabiting lower dimensions or smaller than the Planck length, typically unable to interact with the physical world as we know it. Examples: The Boneless (Doctor Who), A Square (Flatland), White Face (Imscared)
