First of all, I'm going to preface this by saying that this is completely hypothetical, and there's a reason I generally draw and RP Katja as being far, far below this line: because they're just way more into acting on a human scale. They prefer being at least non-huge enough that they can actually see people, and generally like being at sizes where they can actually… hang out with people! Hold them! Hug them! [REDACTED]! However,


Basically, by scaling the average time it takes for motor signals to get from the brain to a human's feet, and multiplying that by the speed of light (for, say, fibre-optic nerves), the highest height you could get about the same performance at is ~8,600km.

Now, seeing as Katja's radius of being able to do Reality Hacksβ„’ is equal to the square of their height in metres, that's a radius of about 7.4Γ—1013m β€” about 495AU, or 68 light-hours.

I think a good upper limit to put on them is probably "they haven't figured out how the hell to make FTL communication systems actually work with the degree of parallelism or precision that a nervous system requires, and they are unlikely to ever try". That, and Doing Not Magic over such an immense area that it takes nearly three days for any resultant light or radio transmissions to reach them is both boring and nerve-wracking for them, a being who, regardless of their power, still has the mind of a mortal and a deep aversion to accidentally ruining anyone's day or worse.

in reply to @kda's post:

I have to take a couple minutes to let this info sit because it's absolutely brain-busting. And then I have to take a couple MORE minutes to calm myself down because I have this very strange attraction to things that are physically beyond mortal comprehension.

Thank you for this information, because if nobody else is gonna say 'Thanks for having a fursona that can be several times larger than our solar system', then I will.

I need another moment to just accept that this is gonna live rent free in my head now.

Oh, no, their maximum height is the 8,600km number β€” the 495AU one is how far their ~reality hacks~ can reach.

But still, a single strand of their fur could easily be hundreds of metres long and tens of centimetres across at their maximum size. ✨
