Wait, I though redactors could only alter what had already been altered by authors in the first place ? (I remember Cheet cheet said something of the sort, that they were part of an author storry b efore a redactor changed them, no ?)

And we know for a fact that auditors can at least give some sort of powers to people, since presumably that's how the guy who try to kill use with a though mixer, the metamorphic abomination, gained his shapeshifting powers, and also wasn't it by making a deal with an auditors that North became "Smith" ?
(If it turns out he somehow made a deal with a Publisher, now that'd be /extra/ impressive)
