Test Results

Magic

We decided to start with something basic. Ahead, some of them and their results.

(All numbers are in average ME, standing for Magic Energy, with a limit of 1000, being above It almost the level of an alicorn, which is 1500.)

"Ghost" Form

This unique technique, only Mane has It and he discovered some days ago. This old power granted to King Sombra after his pact with Tirek, allowed him to turn somewhat in a ghost assembling a dense cloud of black smoke, now It's Mane's turn to inherit this power.

It allows him to fly but very limited heights, 5 meters according to the test. Really high speed and immune to any physical damage, except his head which can resize. The Magic Detector picked 939 ME on the room, but for some reason, his brain doesn't get exhausted that quick, neither his body. Analysis point that It causes a balance between mind and body, and requires some focus which Mane doesn't show most of times.

But as usual, there's the bad side. He can't pass through solid matter (defeats the "ghost" name), neither fight or use his magic.
Only purpose then? Be sneaky and a quick get a getaway from danger if necessary.
Personally, I would use It to scare somepony in some situations.

Crystal Sense

Finally, the one we have been waiting for! And I really don't know what to say, even my students...
We decided to remake the body test while he was on this form, with some changes and we received expected and unexpected results. The first thing we addressed was the unusual control of this without the presence of the Crystal Heart or It's aura, which points to the "Devil Blood" factor.

As per usual of a crystal pony, the body tissue , fur, hair and tail turn into hard mineral matter, but the other properties are still the same as a normal body, with total flexibility and normal body nature.

Final Notes

His magic is above the limits and serves him well the lack of fighting skills. The detectors showed his brain uses two and/or three times more than necessary, which can lead to some problems in the future if he doesn't receive a therapy in brain power control.

His ghost form is like a lite version of King Sombra's. While he could use magic and "sometimes" go through solid objects, Mane doesn't have any of those, but has the speed at least.

The Crystal Sense is what made the show. The Magic Detector pointed 681 ME
As expected, his weight was massive due to the density of different minerals, and needless to say, running on It, he didn't last one minute. We turned the max speed to test a sprint, he got tired then lost control and fell flat on the machine almost breaking It!

His strength for weight lifting, we analysed and saw what was going on. His body gets used to the extra weight and a small magic flow helps him with his massive weight, but lifting heavy objects begs more for the magic and we previously analysed what would happen if his body overdoes the magic flow, attending his body is already under a magic effect/aura.

But the fight, this is what made us put a limit. Mane's speed is very limited, but when he lands a hit It can be an instant knockout!
The punching pressure machine survived with no damage (unlike the grip meter), and the kick machine (barely) made It! If the walls of this place weren't made of bricks of solid rock but red bricks, he could kick holes in every wall all day.

He also told us about something of being bullet proof. One of my scholars went to Captain Copper and asked for some loaded weapons, and upon firing on Mane, the bullets just go back in random directions, which we had to stop or one of us three would die or go to the hospital.

With this, I end the tests on Mane Shaker and we have official results of what we could perform and analyze.
