Ok, so here's one to think about, Komachi. All kinds of nice stuff here. She can change the distances between things and uses this power to make trips across the Senzu river reflect the crimes of whoever she is ferrying.
First of all, how does this power manifest. I see a few possobilities. If you are holding a 12 inch ruler and you are space dialated twice as long by Komachi, how long will the ruler be?
The first possobility is that you wouldn't see the ruler because once the building blocks of creation are seperated by twice the distance that they normally are, you became a whole new kind of dead, along with the ruler. This is pretty boring so lets try a diffrent answer.
12 inches. This is because when space stretches those building blocks of creation are also stretched and so everything built on those blocks, is streated. This includes the ruler, along with your head, eye, and light traveling from the ruler to your eye. I'll be focusing on this scenario.
So everything within the dialation looks the same but what about outside the dialation. One possobility is that everything looks the same because as you or anything else (light) passes from normal space to the dialated space, it too becomes dialated (being within space, and all). So doesn't this render Komachi's power useless? To an extent, yes. Unless Komachi has some mechanism by which to ignore spacial dialations. With such an ability her powers become very useful. She can compress space in front of her and them walk into it and appear to grow in size.
This leads us to our final part of the scenario. Consider the ruler, now held by Komachi. After dialating space by 2 she leaves her dialated space while ignoring space dialations, causing her and the ruler to grow. The ruler is now 24 inches long. However, note that the situation could be worked out to the same effect if Komachi had just dialated the universe by 1/2 causing everything else to shrink in comparison to the constantly sized Komachi.
Now lets move onto Komachi, when doing her job. Komachi sees her target, a distance away from her. She dialates space between her sand her target she perpares to ignore space dialations and raises her weapon. Now lets for a second believe that Komachi uses a Naginata instead of a scyth. She swings her Naginata through dialated space and her target's head is removed by what appears to him to be a very long blade (not that he has much time to care). A fine kill but Komachi does not use a Naginata. As many of you might know, the possition of a scythe's blade makes a bad weapon but Komachi his it a little diffrent. Consider that when Komachi swings her scythe, because she ignores space dialations her blade goes around her victim even though he is a distance away. When the blade is in front of him and Komachi, she can pull the blade toward herself through dialated space. The blade travels the distance between the reach of her weapon and her body in a certain time. However, while the pole is in undialated space, the blade travels through undialated space and both have to reach body at the same time so the blade travels many times faster through dialated space, amassing much more momentum when finally hitting her target. The conclusion is that Komachi's attacks are more deadly at long range.
One last thing to consider. What if Komachi just let her blade sit in front of her. Instead of pulling the blade, why not undialate the space? Now her targets neck will try to expand into an area occupied by her blade unless it moves out of the way. While this may increase the cutting power of her blade, because we have no idea on how fast she can dialate or undialate space, we can not predict how much more effective this would be. However, it does mean that Komachi can effectively kill, without moveing her weapon and instead just dialating space around it.
Some problems are that I feel like I'm missing something in my idea here. Something about Komachi reaching around enemies with her scyth doesn't seem quite right. I'm sure there might also be some issues with the blade speeding up through the dialated space and then not comming out the side a the same time. For one thing, if the blade gains momentum in the space, does it still have that momentum when it comes out? Would that momentum break the pole and send the blade flying into Komachi's face? Maybe?
