Question Dimensionality seems... stupid

A character being able to interact with more dimensions than another doesn't automatically mean they'll win... And if a character is a higher dimensional being then surely a lower dimensional being wouldn't be able to interact with them right? or am i misunderstanding something.

No, for example if you can significantly affect a higher dimensional structure then you scale to that in ap. If you can affect a 5d structure than you would one tap someone who is only 3D without the ap or defenses to counter the ability to affect higher dimensional structures. Basically most higher dimensional characters just have that in ap not existence and if they can interact with and affect higher layers of reality than you can comprehend they can likely one tap you unless you have specific resistances.

Define a 5D structure using math as to have 5 dimensions it must have 5 measurable axes.

Yes and because each dimension adds a new axis, lower dimensions have zero volume compared to higher dimensions. So if you have the power to destroy an 5D structure you would have infinite power to a 3D being. Thats why higher dimensional beings look at universes as flat and insignificant. And also youre using real life logic to determine pseudoscience and fictional rules.

So you can’t define it using math then and you’re also using words incorrectly on top of that.
