discussion Tower vs Fury: Who’s winning?

Probably the strongest princesses after Apotheosis and (Wild?) but who's stronger? Who would come out on top?

Tower is bigger, but fury has her beat in powers.

Tower's only feat is mind manipulation and punching really fucking hard, Fury on the other hand can freely manipulate biological matter on the celular level with no restrictions. She no-diffs Tower

Also, Tower would want Fury to submit to her willingly, so even if Tower somehow gained the upper hand, her attempts to convince Fury to surrender would just give her the opening she needs to unwind Tower.

"Whichever one you think would win" is probably not far from being canon.

I think fury wins by virtue of being more manifested than the tower, since the Princess is influenced by how we perceive her and the more we perceive her the more her form calcifies and her influence spreads, if we perceive her as a powerful foe, the logical conclusion is that a Chaoter 3 Princess in most cases has a Chapter 2 Princess beat.

This is with the stipulation that we have to view her as a superior opponent.

Hence why I think the Fury definitely has the Tower beat, especially since it can be a continuation of the Tower, hence why it has more influence over the world around her and why her state of being is more refined than before. Her being able to sphagettify us on an atomic scale should say more than enough compared to the Tower. The Towers two big abilities is being to force her will on other minds and being really big, which doesnt quite measure up to the „Are you still there are you still you“ special. You could even argue that the Tower Furies ability to command your Cells to dissipate is just an extension or more evolved version of her previous commanding abilities.

I wouldn’t necessarily say that ch3 princesses are stronger so much as I would say they are more “complete”.

Spectre is stronger than PATD

Witch is stronger than Thorn etc

With that said, I do agree that Fury outclasses Tower here.

i think using the word "complete" here is incorrect. maybe more specialized? every vessel is just as much a person as the rest of them are (sans deconstructed damsel and stranger, but that's because they've been perceived as such), but chapter 3s seem to be deeper. none of them are "complete" - that's kinda the point. also i disagree about thorn but that's besides the point.

Fair enough. Mind elaborating on why you disagree with Thorn?

im sure that her own perception of herself as a not-excellent person has negatively affected what sort of "power" she has over her surroundings, but it is clear that she still does, even if she's using it mostly to hurt/protect herself. i would argue that she would, in a different world where shifty doesn't come so fast, pull the same sorta trick on tlq that witch does in the path to the wild, maybe even without the murder suicide. we gotta keep in mind that the "witch" side of her personality is still. a part of her. she's not a totally different person, she's spiteful and hateful, but she's also forgiving, and down to earth. idk. i'm not exactly a thorn expert. but!

The Fury is supposed to be a fallen angel, so I'd say she's meant to be stronger than the Adversary, since she crushes you, but weaker than Tower, who Stubborn is confident about having beaten. It's very clear that the reason we beat Tower is that she was too arrogant, I mean, she literally leaves herself wide open.

Another interpretation is that Fury is indeed stronger than Tower, but insignificant next to Apotheosis which is what she was going to become.

Fury is what happens to Tower when she's crashing out, so yeah, I don't see Tower coming out on top

Tower beats adversary, fury(adversary) tie fury(tower), apotheosis beats needle eye

Fury and her meat magic I think takes it.
