Default Nouns and Verbs; Realms and ___

A Realm is an Advantage that defines what sorts of phenomena you can influence; in effect, Nouns. Meanwhile, each level in it defines what sorts of things you can do with respect to the Realm; that is, the levels are Verb-like.

So what would you call an Advantage that inverts this relationship, with the overall Advantage being defined in terms of what you can do (e.g., “destroy things”) and the individual levels defining what you can do it to? That is, the Advantage is all about the Verb, and the levels define Nouns.
