This is Paper 2 in the 20 Paper PHHT Series. This paper constructs the twisted higher obstruction tower for identity-eliminator-conserved n-truncated graded types. Starting from a selected reduced presentation f: XβBπ’β€n, the primary obstruction is the pullback parity class ΟβΛ£ = f*Οβα΅βΏβ±α΅ = ΟβdispX β HΒΉ (X; π½βα΅), so primary vanishing is always interpreted relative to the selected presentation, not as universal vanishing on Bπ’β€n. For each kβ₯2, a partial identity-eliminator-conserved solution through the (kβ1) -skeleton, a cellular local coefficient system πβ, transported identity-eliminator defect data DefIdβ½α΅βΎ, boundary coherence, and a boundary-compatible filling condition determine a twisted cellular cochain cβ β Cα΅ (X;πβ). Boundary coherence makes cβ closed, and lower-dimensional coherence modifications change cβ by a twisted coboundary. Hence Οβ = cβ β Hα΅ (X;πβ) is the k-th obstruction class. Vanishing of Οβ is necessary for extension, and sufficient under the stated boundary-compatible filling hypotheses. The formal choices killing cβ form the corresponding torsor before passage to semantic fillers. The paper develops the tower in absolute, relative, skeletal, gluing, naturality, finite detected cochain-calculation, and minimal-cellular-model forms. It also separates representative-level vanishing, class-level vanishing, nullity data, and realized fillers. Naturality is class-level unless representative and filler transport data are supplied, and minimality is relative to cellular obstruction data realizing the declared classes. The non-collapse theory is given in two forms. Axiomatic cellular non-collapse shows that prescribed closed representatives yield towers with all lower stages zero and a nonzero top class. Semantic non-collapse is realized through central-extension and Postnikov realization packages: the Heisenberg central extension realizes the dimension-two class, while for every kβ₯3 a connected Postnikov stage with Οβ=β€α΅, Οβββ=β€, and primitive k-invariant uββHα΅ (β€α΅;β€) realizes Οβ=β―=Οβββ=0, Οβ=1βHα΅ (Tα΅;β€). Thus primary parity conservation is only the first layer of identity-eliminator conservation; the full theory is a genuinely higher obstruction tower.
