Nora, from what we understood, is able to channel the natural electricity generated by the body or absorb it from the outside to get percentage modifiers on all her stats.

Previously I was force to limit conversion type semblances to turning something into aura (like lightning into aura) or vice versa (aura into fire) for fear of breaking potential canon canon…Nora now just broke the middle man and you can convert non aura into non aura.

What this means is we can have a semblance that converts say…cold into hardening ones skin…BUT…

We still don’t have a confirmation if you can turn aura into an element, we can speculate Cinder is doing that, but we don’t have confirmation yet
