[Respect] Accelerator (A Certain Magical Index)
Accelerator is the #1 Level 5 of Academy City. His power is to control vectors, coupled with a mind that would put supercomputers to shame. His vector control it's splitted in two different parts, Reflection and Vector Manipulation.
Now, Esper powers 101: Espers powers are basically reality warping, where the esper uses his Personal Reality (ToAru wiki is awesome) to use their powers, so there is that. You basically can't overpower Accelerator's Reflection, unless you are in another "tier" of existence (basically Aiwass and Alesteir)
Now, Reflection and Vector Control:
Reflection is Accelerator's defensive power, if Accelerator's choker is on, it also means that Reflection is on. Reflection doesn't require active calculations on Accelerator's part, but he still needs to rely on the Misaka Network. Reflection kicks in when some object makes contact with Accelerator's AIM field (basically an aura that envelops his body and clothes, but he can also choose to extend his AIM field to other objects), be it UV rays or a bullet. Regardless, they will be affected by Reflection.
The other part of his power it's Vector Control, something that discovered during his fight against Touma in the Sisters Arc.
Anyway, to business:
Reflection
Accelerator's doesn't need to be aware of an attack to reflect it
Even though the boy in front of the scope is a living human, when this trigger is pulled, the .50 caliber anti-tank bullets of this gun would rip through the sky at speeds of 1200 km/h [...] All twelve bullets fired should have been absorbed into the boy's back; that slender, wirelike body ought to have burst into tiny chunks and scattered. Right, that naturally should be the case. The next instant, the Metal Eater in the girl's hands explodes. The shells that made a direct hit rebound back. Almost like a video rewinding, the shells whose ballistics were reversed cleanly plunge nicely into the muzzle of the anti-tank rifle like a Kendama game, and the Metal Eater bursts from the inside into very small pieces.

Deflects a lightspeed attack.
She released a lightning spear from it. The spear of purple electricity moved forward at the speed of light and held enough destructive force to knock someone unconscious. She did not think that it would act as a fatal blow. As long as it distracted him long enough for her to get away, that was enough. However, the lightning spear she had fired at the boy rebounded and struck her in her own chest.

Simple explanations of Accelerator's powers
That boy could alter all vectors be they motion, heat, or electricity, so he would not be injured even if he were directly hit by that last resort of a nuclear missile. He would just reflect the shockwave that would blow everything way, the heat that would scorch everything, and the neutrons and radiation that would kill everything. He was Accelerator, Academy Cityes strongest Level 5.
To Aru Majutsu no Index Volume 3, pag. 59
An example on how Reflection works
One of the delinquents surrounding Accelerator hacks a knife at his back, but Accelerator doesn't look back, not even giving a look. The delinquent exerts all his weight onto the sharp edge of the knife as he attacks at that seemingly defenseless, weak back. [...] The sound of bone breaking can be heard from behind Accelerator. Of course, this devastation doesn't come from Accelerator's body. The delinquent who charged at his back with a knife has his wrist broken. The 'redirection' ability that was exerted onto the blade of the knife caused the slender wrist holding it to break, as it's unable to withstand that force.
To Aru Majutsu no Index Volume 5, pag. 10
More examples
As it's midnight, this voice can be heard very loudly. What the heck, a lovers' squabble? Accelerator thus 'redirects' this excessive 'noise', the air vibrations away from his ears. The 'redirection' ability can be done unconsciously through some simple calculations. He just needs to calculate the minimum required forces (gravity, air pressure), light, oxygen, heat, sound wavelength, etc.) and 'redirect' everything else. If he really 'redirects all forces', he will be tossed out of the atmosphere because gravity's redirected. After Accelerator re-calibrates the 'noise' that's transmitted to him, he walks out of the alley and arrives at the road. He continues to look up at the sky; there's no need to look forward because he doesn't need to notice any obstacles. With the 'redirection' ability of his, his body won't be hurt at all.
To Aru Majutsu no Index Volume 5, pag. 14
Another example
Accelerator's 'redirection' won't be interrupted even when sleeping. Sometimes, he will even 'redirect' the sound to sleep better, and at that moment, nothing will wake Accelerator up.

NOVEL SPOILERS BEWARE
Heat doesn't matter to Accelerator
She was sure she had heard the voice come from that direction. Due to the enveloping steam, she couldn't make out the details of the figure. But from the silhouette she could see, she could tell the figure was standing in a completely normal and natural way. Even though he was standing in lava that must have been a few thousand degrees. Even the enveloping steam was more than 100 degrees and he was in the middle of it all.

Reflection working on magic (Accelerator wasn't even Awakened)
He held up his right hand, the sole area his reflection was activated on.
The water spear was smashed to pieces.
The water turned to a rainbow of light that flowed diagonally back from his right hand. It acted as a wall of pressure that knocked away 4 of 5 of Vodyanoy‟s comrades.
Accelerator had blocked the attack, but he frowned.
He couldn‟t figure it out.
If his reflection had succeeded, the water spear should have head straight back at Vodyanoy and pierced her arm. Instead, it had gone astray and had disintegrated into a rainbow of light. It had been an odd phenomenon. It hadn‟t been something like steam created from water or ice. Accelerator had caused the reflection but he didn‟t understand the process by which it had turned to light.
To Aru Majutsu no Index Volume 20, pag. 110
Reflection works on teleportation
When he reflected teleportation powers, a strange phenomenon occurred in the 3 dimensional world, but this had felt entirely different.
To Aru Majutsu no Index Volume 20, pag. 110
Reflection worked on both the Archangel Gabriel and Kazakiri Hyouka (they were fairly equal while fighting)
Accelerator was like a blast wave from an explosion, blowing away the snow from the ground, he charged towards the two angels. In the moment before their weapons were about to clash, Accelerator considered which entity he should get rid of first. However he came to the conclusion that since both of them were winged monsters, there was no point in aiding either side, and he leapt between the two, using his Reflection ability to attack the angels by redirecting their own blows at themselves.
BOOM!! The sound of explosions rang throughout the air. Against the doll-like angel of ice, Reflection was largely ineffective. Even though he used Reflection, the wings of ice were like soft candy, as they were bent out of shape, they were sent flying towards the forests, sending up ice and dirt as they went along.
Archangel Gabriel has enough power to remove all the stars from the sky just by appearing.
"Can't you tell? She turned the evening into night."
Kanzaki said casually, but Kamijou is gobsmacked.
It's easy to say that she changed the evening sky to night, but this means that the person in front of them can control the relative positions of the Earth to the sun. No, even the orbit of the moon was switched. This means that the moon and other planets are under all control.
Controlling celestial bodies.
“Head out, Archangel Gabriel. Blow them all away.”
The world turned to night.
As if everything had been instantaneously painted over with black, the sky turned to a night sky.
“Using Gabriel to remove all the stars from the sky and leaving the Star of Bethlehem as the only thing floating in the incomplete heavens that are filled with Telesma was establishing the large flow of power needed for the ceremony to reset the four elements."
Vector Manipulation
Reversing Misaka #10031 bloodflow
"Now, it's time for the question for the consolation round" Accelerator said mockingly. "I'm touching your blood. I'm touching the flow of your blood. Now, if I reverse that vectorc, If I reverse the vector of your blood, what will happen to your body? A correct answer gets you a nice peaceful sleep!"
The aftermath, kinda... crude.
She was lying face up as if she were staring up at the rectangular visible portion of the purple sky. There was a sea of blood. The sea of blood was so large that it made one wonder if a single human body really held that much blood. It wasnet just on the ground. Both walls were painted red up to eye-level. It looked like someone had wrung out a human body to get every last drop of blood out. In the center of that explosion of red lay a girl. The arms and legs extending out from the short-sleeves and the skirt were torn up. It was most likely the same on her skin within her clothes that he could not see. Her school uniform had been dyed so red that its original colors could no longer be seen, but the clothes themselves were not torn at all. Her body seemed to have been torn apart from the inside along the paths of the blood vessels as if someone had passed narrow wires through all of them and then forcibly torn the wires out. Her torn-up arms were reminiscent of a diagram of a dissected frog. The torn-up girl had nothing that could actually be called a face. Instead, she had what looked like an open flower or a peeled boiled egg. It was a dark-red cavity with pink muscles and soft yellow fat inside.

Altering vectors for a speed boost
Acceleratores foot suddenly caused the gravel behind him to explode. He had altered the vector for the motion of his foot. As if a rocket were firing from the bottom of his foot, he shot 7 meters forward like a bullet in one step. Misaka Imouto tried to jump further back, but Accelerator heartlessly flew forward many times faster than she could move.
Stating what Accelerator can do with his Vector Manipulation
As he yelled he struck with his left hand. The strike was gentle like he was stroking her cheekc.and yet a cracking noise came from Misaka Imoutoes neck upon receiving the attack. Her vision spun around as her entire body spun like a bamboo copter before landing on the gravel. His attack did all that, but he had actually been holding back. If Accelerator had seriously been trying to kill her, her body would have exploded the instant he touched her skin.
To Aru Majutsu no Index Volume 3, pag. 148
Creates plasma
It was plasma. Compressing the air created heat. Internal combustion engines used that fact. By compressing the city's air with a ridiculous compression ratio, it had turned into a mass of heat exceeding 10,000 degrees Celsius. This forcibly caused the atoms in the nearby air to split into cations and electrons which turned them to plasma. That point of light swallowed up the surrounding air and instantaneously grew to have a radius of 20 meters. The surrounding darkness was annihilated by the pure white light. The heat of 10,000 degrees caused a burning pain on Mikoto's skin.

Rewrites Last Oder's brain.
Right now, he's comparing the 'infected' Last Order's personality files with the one 'before infection'. The 'difference' between both of them is the virus codes. Though some of it include Last Order's memories of her interacts with Accelerator, Accelerator's unable to tell which are virus codes and which are memories. The calculation of the amount of data required to be overwritten is complete. The total is 357,081. After understanding all the abnormal 'codes' in Last Order's brain, Accelerator sends a command to all the codes. There's only one line, 'overwrite'. He can feel a mass amount of signals moving, and that feeling feels like the tide is subsiding. Last Order's body is bouncing about. Her fingers are twitching about, as if she's being manipulated by some invisible strings.

Capable of using his power while unconscious and after he suffered brain damage.
The coronary artery. The largest artery in the human body. It's certain death once it breaks. It's like using a knife to cut the carotid. "If so, how..." "Hm. That boy seem to have the ability to manipulate blood flow. He let your blood flow through the broken artery without leaving even a single drop of blood. Thanks to him, you were able to survive being sent all the way here, and I could use a temporary use artificial artery to connect your artery and push you into the operation room. Ahh, you should really thank that boy. He definitely lost consciousness, yet he was still able to exert his power onto you until you were sent into the operation room."

Accelerator easily bullet-timing
Accelerator trowing an issy fit
Accelerator thrust his hand into the nearest concrete wall. Due to vector control, it totally looks like his arm is buried in tofu. As Accelerator screams to the point of blood coming out from his throat, he disorderly swung his arm about that's buried in the wall. He brings together and controls all the vectors. A BOOM thunderous roar echoed throughout. In that instant, the earth's rotation on September 30 slows down by about 5 minutes. His arm, having took away the enormous energy of the planet's rotation, converts it via vector control into a single demonic attack. The forcibly gouged-out concrete wall was blown away at a horrifying velocity. Accelerator is standing on an alley corner that surrounds a building, but the several buildings that serve as an obstructing space between him and the [target] were being destroyed as if they're waste paper.

"If you're planning on shooting me, you should stop. I think that gun's sight is horizontally off by quite a bit." [...]
"I see. This certainly is an interesting situation." "Well? What will you do?"
"This." As he said that, Accelerator turned the gun towards his own temple. Before Kill Point could think, Accelerator unhesitatingly pulled the trigger. Bang!! A gunshot rang out. [...] Accelerator had altered the vector of the bullet he had shot himself in the head with so that it headed towards Kill Point.

Can easily alter the speed of a pebble
Accelerator ignored Kakine‘s words and stomped on the gravel road, and then kicked the rocks that were sent flying up using a karate kick.
Boom! A loud explosion rang out.
The vectors of the pebbles were changed and were fired off faster than a Railgun, but vanished after a few millimetres. However, the pressure waves did not vanish, and the attack felt as if it would tear the very air apart.

Uses Vector Control at distance
He looked at the girl still hanging there, and turned on his collar once more. All he did was move his fingers slightly, and the chains binding the girl are cut off inexplicably.

Another example of Vector Control used at distance
Taking hostages didn't work. As soon as they tried to reach for the kids, their wrists were twisted in an unnatural manner. Dynamite didn't work. As soon as they tried to push the button for it to explode, their fingers were blown away along with the button.

Accelerator uses Vector Control to see if a drug would have a negative effect on a fetus
He had once calculated back from the electrical signals on the surface of the skin in order to completely rewrite the structure of a small girl's brain so he could save her. It was not difficult for him to gather accurate information on the fetus by touching the pregnant woman's belly. (Gender: Female. Weight: 244 grams. Nutrition Supply Level: 3825. Consciousness Operation Rate: 3.8. Heart Rate: 60. Stimulus Reaction Rate: 5.52. Cell Division: 88c)

Effortlessy creates a tsunami of snow
It was the sound of Accelerator lightly stepping on the ground and causing a huge tsunami of snow to rise up. It swallowed up Vodyanoy and the others. Unlike a normal tsunami, it had overwhelming speed. It was faster than Vodyanoy and the others and the wall of snow knocked the attackers unconscious.

Accelerator taking the vectors from other attacks to augment his power
The angel had an almost human-like expression of surprise, and in this instant Accelerator took away the vectors from the angel‟s attack. Gathering the vectors, Accelerator launched a merciless strike straight at the chest of the glasses-wearing angel.
The sound vanished.
The seemingly weightless flying angel was knocked back 300 meters.

He can easily keep up with Silver Cross
The 4-legged powered suit did not have a human form. As such, the lenses that acted as eyes were not installed only on the front.
One of the lenses on that model had spotted his pursuer.

It was a white figure called Accelerator.

Actively manipulates Mugino's Meltdowner, which is a relativistic attack (Yeah, kinda need input on this one, if you could help in the comments it would be great, because I'm pretty sure I fucked this up)
“Use this,” said Mugino from next to him. “This is your job.”
In the next instant, a beam of light shot from Mugino Shizuri’s palm and headed straight for Accelerator. That Particle-Function Waveform High Speed Cannon was powerful enough to slice an Aegis ship in half. If any disturbance had existed in the #1’s reflection equations, he might have been turned to ash without even having time to feel pain.

The wings are made of Dark Matter
From behind him spread murky black wings, as if they shot out from his back. This pair of wings that contain something which can blow away the mind, and anger that shatter his own sense of self, spread instantly over tens of meters, and shaves off parts of the buildings and roads around him.

"Whac?!"
He completely doesnet understand what just happened. Acceleratores wings didnet move at all. He only stared at Kakine and slightly moved his hands. With just that, he defeated Kakine who had absolute power and ground him deep into the ground. His right hand that had the Pincet Glove on it was torn off from the elbow downwards.

Uses his wings to crush Touma
The black wings on Accelerator‟s back spread out explosively. They stretched to greater than 100 meters all at once and he swung them down towards that Level 0 boy‟s head as grand weapons.
With a great noise, that strike that held the power to split a skyscraper in half vertically came down. And yet the targeted boy was not turned to a pile of meat.

Accelerator himself was not entirely sure and he swung the black wings again.
This time it was a horizontal strike.
That strike seemed like it would slice apart every object in the world at chest level and it flew mercilessly towards that Level 0 boy.
To Aru Majutsu no Index Volume 20, pag. 170
More uses
One of the wings turned into dozens of sharp stakes and flew forcefully towards the Level 0 boy who was running towards Accelerator. Instead of aiming for that small target from many different angles, the attack was more like a carpet bombing of an entire area that the boy happened to be in.
A shock wave exploded out.
White snow and black dirt exploded up greater than 10 meters into the air obstructing Accelerator‟s vision. He could tell huge cracks had appeared in various places on the ground. Distant seismographs had likely detected that shaking. [...]
And the shock waves created by even one of the dozens of stakes held enough destructive force to smash a human body to pieces.

Accelerator made a simple move.
The black wings behind him both swung downwards. Except, that this time his target isn‟t the Level 0 teen that‟s running towards him,
But towards the empty white land in front of him.
The sound of an explosion rang out. With the massive destructive power, large amounts of earth got swept up, and formed into a 15m high and 300m wide tsunami made of earth. The entire vista got covered by it, and striked as if to swallow the tiny lad.

Accelerator straight up tanks an attack that would've busted Eurasia. Accelerator was also weakened because he used magic.
"It‘s like creating a angelic body, a massive chunk of energy! When something like that drops down on Earth, before any changes happen there will be a massive explosion and raze everything on the ground! Misha from Angel Fall was the same at the time. With uncontrollable gigantic power on that level and letting it loose, the only ending to this will be the eradication of the human civilisation‘s existence!!"
"It‘ll be just as you said. Such a pity. The same can be applied to you. From the scale of power, it can at least let the entire Eurasia continent be devoured by the light."
The mass of golden power, absorbed from the top and concentrated at the bottom, was fired downwards without mercy. He felt on his face a pressure like an electrifying numbness. As expected, it wasn't a normal power, just like Accelerator's white wings. Most likely, even 'Redirection' wouldn't work. It will probably go straight through, just like when he was defeated by Aiwass.
And so what?
Accelerator moved his white wings further, greatly accelerating upwards - heading straight towards the golden mass without any pretenses. There was a slight smile on his lips.
"Pachi", his body started groaning. The blood veins near the surface of his arms expanded for unknown reasons. He strongly felt there is a giant channel of blood reaching from his fingertip to his shoulder. And just as he felt that the blood veins burst. Cracking up from the inside of the skin, reddish-black liquid sprayed out.
If it is forcibly used there will be a huge rejection reaction that awaits you.
The wounded place is not limited to only one section of his body. The arteries and veins that are spread like a spider web throughout his body bulged up, along with the uncomfortable fluctuations and pain that accompanied the rise and fall in the flow of his spirit. The internal organs powerfully expanded and contracted, and his entire body sweated like being in a sauna. That unpleasant clear liquid mixed together with the other redness. Accelerator guessed everywhere in his body there are small explosions, and he is right thinking that.
