Capacities
Capacity, is the highest level of capabilities, and is used to describe the inherent abilities (Potential) of someone (containing the abilities) and not the abilities themself.
For example, my water bottle has the capacity of ... but the ability to hold water.
Don't require energy and don't change much through use/training, used as static values or resources
