In some campaign worlds there is a strong divide among certain origins. Check with your GM for what applies in your campaign. This is especially common when different world-views collide. This is specific to each campaign world and has to do with how powers work. Divided powers are completely different and incompatible; philosophy, mechanics, physics; everything works differently to opposed powers.

Sometimes, all origins are divided against each other, creating a very labile situation.

Technology can stand apart from all the other origins, science and physics against mystical powers.

Magic and Religion might be opposed. In this magic is seen as a heresy, and magicians and priests often war openly.

Origins that are opposed like this cannot affect each other; it is as if powers from the opposing origin was actually a schtick. It cannot be dispelled or otherwise modified by Meta Powers.
