      The teleport 7 inches thing might be nice for getting through locked doors

      That is exactly what I though. There are benefits to this one for sure.

        Could be useful, but it says nowhere that your clothes will teleport with you.

        Getting your tackle out; a war tradition almost as old as bonking someone on the head with a metal object.

        Less practiced by armed militias and moreso 'crackhead locals' these days; it remains an incredibly effective tactic.

          I'm thinking that #7 might be useful in certain policing or security positions, depending on the definition of empty (there's always dust and air).

          Got a bunch of containers that need to be inspected? You can cross the ones you can see through off the list.

          Also useful for winning the cup-and-ball game

          It allows you to remotely see anywhere in the world where a transparent container (like a glass) is.

            Free gravel, then sell it. Just make sure to not summon too much gravel so the price doesn't go down.

              Free for you, not the people you sell it to.

                  1. Sheer horror. You'll never be able to eat these again.
                  2. This has been brought up before. Gravel isn't cheap. This is basically infinite money.
                  3. If used continuously, you're basically The Flash.
                  4. Just a bad idea unless you can put it inside your existing nose for double the sniff-sensitivity.
                  5. Okay, that's just fun.
                  6. Again, used continuously, this is the fountain of youth. You'll still die of old age though.
                  7. Only useful under very specific circumstances. Also, define a "container".
                  8. Unless the Khitan civilization knew things we don't, this isn't useful at all.
                  9. Fast as he is now or when he was alive?

                    If you look inside (even using magic ability), it will be predicted and then it will be empty. It will be even harder for you not to look.

                      It could actually be insanely overpowered depending on interpretation.

                      "Instantly see inside any empty container"

                      What does it mean to "see" inside a container? If that just means "know what the contents are" (i.e
                      nothing) then it's limited, but if it means literally see with remote sight, that's much more useful - depending on this next part...

                      What does "inside" mean? Does it mean we can only observe the interior, or can we look out from the interior as if our point of view occupies it?

                      And finally, what constitutes an "empty container"? Is a container still a container if it doesn't have a lid? Or do its sides need to be opaque? By most interpretations, a glass with no liquid would easily fit the definition of an empty container...

                      At its most favourable then, this power gives you the ability to remote surveil any location where a common, everyday empty glass could be found. Very powerful indeed.

                        Can i summon it anywhere without going there?

                        And do you create matter from nothing or do you relocate preexisting gravel?
                        I see a way to virtually free unlimited energy here with the use of gravity batteries.

                        Drunk as a skunk, Rumba stood in the parking lot, staggering, freshly jilted. Arms raised in the air. Crying, screaming, and laughing maniacally, he urged all the magic showers of stone. They would pay. They would all pay. And he would pay too. But it seemed a small price. The stars begin to twinkle and to procure your passion. The moon, in its full glory tonight, grew by its third in just seconds.

                        The stars seemed to wink out of existence. First, a couple at a time, then in large swaths. They weren't gone, but obscured. A few minutes after the last star disappeared from the sky, it was replaced by something wonderful, something magical. Before its impending death, the earth would be subject to it's last and most amazing light show.

                        New stars seemed to faintly appear, but they were wrong, beautifully wrong. And they seemed to move, but as they did, they traced magnificent lines in the sky.

                        He grit his teeth shouldered the cosmic burden once more, as he also dug in his heels and pulled fantasitcally once more at the heavens, demanding the sky come. The lines turned into stripes. The stripes turned into an ever-increasing glow. But he didn't summon just enough gravel to end the earth. He summoned gravel for hundreds of thousands of miles. Soon, the moon would be just another layer in the crust, and still the gravel would fall. Long after humanity had breathed its last breath, the gravel would still fall. The inner planets and the sun would soon dance an intricate path, and they would eventually merge together with the sun itself. But still, the gravel would fall. Not until some centuries later, once the sun had increased to about 20 times its original mass, would the black hole form that would slowly engulf the rest of the known galaxy.

                          I want to say free gravel, but I need to know how its manifested. In a big pile where I want it? Or like never ending handfuls of pocket gravel?

                                I worry about those who are thicker than 7 inches. That might cause some Cloverfield Paradox shit, where your innards wind up fuzed with a door. Skinny folks only.

                                  1. It still allows you to determine whether containers are empty, which is situationally useful.

                                      If it works like that, you would be in huge demand by the bomb squad and for demilitarizing weapons.
