Representative Invisible Man (H.G. Wells) |
What if there were someone (or something) that couldn’t be seen, even in broad daylight? This is the idea behind the Invisibility trope. Invisibility is such an old trope that there are multiple ways to be invisible, many of which still require a “Hand Wave”… Transparent organs, with the fluids inside a character’s body also becoming invisible. Having invisible eyeballs will almost never make the invisible character blind, “Fridge Logic” notwithstanding. Bending light around an object. This allows clothing and other material near the object to become unseen as well. Not reflecting light visible to the human eye, or altering the reflected light into a non-visible wavelength. Some animals may be able to see these wavelengths. Absorbing any light that falls onto it. Rarely used because, while you can’t see it, you will see the lack of light. Magic, if the setting allows for it, can write off the logical issues surrounding the person’s clothing and ability to see while invisible, but if “Magic A” Is “Magic A”, these might still need to be addressed. Some invisible characters can turn their invisibility on and off at will. These characters are often Superheroes… ~ Invisibility – TV Tropes
