===Vulnerabilities=== Although the Siberian is immune to virtually any [[parahuman]] power used directly against her, she is not necessarily immune to external influences.<ref name="13.x eVista" /> To pin and slow down her movements,<ref>“Legend’s fighting Siberian ''here''. It feels wrong. He’s working to pin her down, slow her movements as much as he can. I know he’s probably buying time, trying to wear her other self out, but why not a place with flatter terrain? Why not a place where there’ll be less cover for her and less collateral damage? - [[Prey 14.7]]</ref> [[Legend]] blasted the unprotected area around her so that she could only go straight down.<ref name="14.7 eDown">Rather, his shots seemed to be strategically placed. He ripped apart the side of a building a moment before Siberian landed there, then tore through the five or six floors beneath her so she had nowhere to go except straight down. The instant she stepped free of the building’s ground floor, he tore into the ground with a series of laser blasts that expanded outward, thinning as they went. It created a bowl-shaped indent, with rubble covering the storm drains that had been exposed by the lasers.<br><br>Carrying the truck, Siberian headed for the storm drains anyways, tearing through the piles of debris. Legend unloaded on the entire street, collapsing them around her. - [[Prey 14.7]]</ref> While being held hostage, [[Tecton]] created a fissure by striking the ground; the Siberian was not immune to gravity at the time and so fell into it.<ref>He sprayed containment foam at both Jack and Siberian.<br><br>Nothing. It wouldn’t achieve a thing.<br><br>But Tecton took the moment of Jack’s blindness to duck, to strike the ground.<br><br>The Siberian wasn’t immune to gravity. She fell, and just for a moment, she broke contact with Jack.<br>[...]<br>The Siberian leaped out of the fissure, then paced towards Jack. - [[Interlude 26b]]</ref> [[Piggot]] believed [[Vista]] could manipulate the space around the Siberian to help control her movements.<ref name="13.x eVista">“Vista, I’m counting on you to help control the movements of the Nine. Siberian is immune to powers, but not to external influences. The timing will be sensitive.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/09/01 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 13]]</ref> If the Siberian contacts an [[All-or-Nothing]] effect, they will nullify each other, causing her to flicker out of existence:<ref>'''Belial666:''' Harm is harm. Since there doesn’t seem to be a limit to what powers can actually do, think of an effect that could trump other effects. For example, a sword that cuts ANYthing is something that has occasionally appears in fantasy. Not the “absurdly sharp edge” version but the “name the object of objection and it’s cut” version.<br>Swing it at someone and you could cut off a limb. Or, you could cut off their will to fight. Or their strength. Or their ability to interact with the world. Or anything else of them you could name at all.<br><br>'''Wildbow:''' But if you’re talking in that respect, you might as well be asking what happens when the unstoppable force strikes the immovable object. You might be talking about exactly this if you’re referring to flechette’s arrows vs. Siberian. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/09/08/prey-14-2/#comment-4085 Comment] by Wildbow on [[Prey 14.2]]</ref><ref name="26.5 eConflict" /> * Charged objects from [[Foil]] can pop the Siberian.<ref>Up until the moment Foil, still screaming, using her augmented sense of timing to measure the length of each scream, stepped around the monochrome field he’d cast just in front of her. She threw a handful of darts through the Siberian and Gray Boy’s head as his back was turned.<br><br>The Siberian flickered out of existence as Gray Boy collapsed.<br><br>Neither reappeared, healthy or otherwise. - [[Interlude 26b]]</ref><ref name="26.x e1">A female, standing just outside another time distortion, walked around the effect, charging objects with energy. The entity could see as the small pieces of alloyed metal unfolded, taking shape in not just this world, but ''all'' realities, at the same space and time, bristling with an effect that would sever their attachment to most physical laws.<br><br>They were thrown, and they disrupted connections to two shards at once. The projection disappeared, only to reappear a distance away. The boy who had created the time distortions fell as well.<br><br>''Sting'', the entity thought. Once it had been a weapon for his kind, against his kind, back in the beginning, when they had dwelt in oceans of gray sludge. - [[Interlude 26]]</ref> * Similarly, a blast from [[Damsel of Distress]] would also pop her.<ref>'''Wildbow:''' :i really doubt ashley can pop sibby Ashley could pop Siberian<br>It's why she came up as a possible thing in relation to Sleeper<br>Ashley was named in a WoG a while back talking about the 'anything but' powers and stuff like Alexandria Invulnerability. - Comment by Wildbow on Discord, [https://spacebattles.com/posts/62429974 archived on Spacebattles]</ref> * The Siberian popped after contacting [[Clockblocker]]'s frozen object; the object unfroze upon contact.<ref name="26.5 eConflict">Clockblocker fired his threads from his gauntlet. They surrounded the cube-carrier, and he froze them.<br><br>''Unstoppable force against an immovable object.''<br><br>Which won?<br><br>The Siberian made contact with the thread and flickered out of existence, and the thread went limp. The cube fell with a crash. - [[Sting 26.5]]</ref> A tuned Stilling attack, such as one from [[Scion]], can also pop her.<ref>'''Wildbow:''' :'''would a golden blast still erase her?''' Yep. - Comment by Wildbow [https://redd.it/sg11jg on Reddit]</ref><ref name="29.7 e1">The Siberian appeared beside us in the same instant. Manton spoke, “He finally took action and struck my Siberian.” - [[Venom 29.7]]</ref>
