Essence of the Harem Protagonist (EX)

It allows you to get along with almost everyone, romantically or not, improves the odd of any type of communication, lets you build support structure for harem and manage conflict to maintain the group. Essentially, allowing you to form bond with anyone regardless of your respective goals or personalities. It doesn't create relationships, but it does create possibilities of having them.

• There is something about you that can attract anyone, even strange alien beings beyond the comprehension of mortals and gods alike. What it is that attracts these individuals will vary from person to person but there will always at least be something that will pique their interest. Their interest can easily blossom into fondness, a desire for friendship, or even genuine love if given some time to interact with you in some way whether it is in person or through hearing about you.

• Are quite tough, enough that you could survive the rather destructive results of typical harem shenanigans (If there's any). You will never suffer crippling or lethal wounds from any of those in your harem.

• You have Charisma that allows you to come up with solid quips on the fly, bullshit your way through damn near anything, and getting carnal and intimate with females fairly easily.

• You will passively draw towards you individuals that have significant power, importance in their world plot wise or some other reason, grand destinies, and this such as that. {Toggle-able}

• Granted infinite stamina and vitality, you are a quite able lover, able to please a mind boggling amount of people into bliss.

• Any individuals that become part of your harem will be more willing to put aside differences and grievances to work towards your happiness and their own if circumstances permit. The feelings and loyalty they have for you will remain eternally strong unless you do something terrible to change that.

• Fate, Destiny, and coincidence will bend, twist, warp, and maneuver to keep those in your harem yours. That doesn't mean they are bound to you forever if they honestly want to move on, just that things like individuals with mind control abilities, infernal lust powers, or a dirty monster tries to claim them these attempts at taking them will fail quite spectacularly. You can sense any who try to claim what is yours and who they are.

Essence of the Manipulator

By consuming the Essence of the Manipulator, you gain several boons:

• You gain conscious control over your charisma. You can switch between being the most fascinating person in any room to having so faint a presence only the most attentive people will even notice you're there. 

• You can also apply your charisma selectively, becoming a dazzling presence in the eyes of your targets while others would be unable to describe your appearance if questioned, and decide how they perceive you, if you seem charming or intimidating to others. 

• You can also make your charisma fade in the minds of others, so that while they listened to you with rapt attention, over the span of the next few days they will forget the impression you left on them until they forget you completely. This however doesn't mean your words fade from their memory if you don't want to, instead they'll merely forget that the ideas you planted in their mind weren't their own.

• You become a masterful actor, able to play any role and present any personality you choose. You will instantly be aware of anyone attempting to read your mind or sense your emotions and can immediately create false thoughts, feelings and even memories that will show any mental scan exactly what you want them to see. 

• You also gain great oratory skills both for simple conversation as well as in speeches before immeasurable crows.

• When observing someone you will within minute's gain a complete understanding of their mind, how they think, what motivates them and how they tick is revealed to you. You can read people like books, their deepest secrets and most hidden thoughts may as well be written on their foreheads. Their subconscious thoughts and biases can be revealed with but a glance. This also works on large crowds, though to a lessened extent when the crowd as a singular entity is targeted.

• Any person you focus on, you know how to remold them to your liking. You can break them with but a few words, you know how to tear down their ego, how to use cruel insults and sweet promises of relief to wear down even the most stubborn resistance. You can also uplift them; give them the greatest confidence in the bleakest circumstances. You can make the most stubborn and bullheaded man see reason, or turn the most open-minded and accepting person into a close-minded bigot. You turn people into simpering slaves completely dependent on you or manipulate them freely without them even being aware that you exist.

• You can also manipulate crowds of people on a larger scale, with only minimally less fine-control. You could lead a hopelessly-outnumbered force into a heroic charge without a single man breaking ranks, as well as demoralize a force with an overwhelming advantage to the point of making a well-armed army of thousands to take flight when charged by children wielding sticks. 

• You can fan the population of a utopian society into complete revolt, or make the population of the most tyrannical dictatorship adore the boot that crushes them. 

• Social engineering on all levels is child's play, you could start a political movement or even a religion and turn it into a universal belief, no matter how drastic or ridiculous. 

• You can turn a noble caste consumed by greed and hedonism to altruism and selflessness, convert a group of radical feminists into a patriarchal faith preaching that a woman's reason for existence is to please men, or simply make the act of wearing a plate of cooked spaghetti as a hat into the latest fashion-trend. 

• The time needed to mold others to your will depends on the extent of your change, from a few moments to encourage someone to act on their impulses, a few minutes to rally a group of men into an action they believe correct but lacked the courage, to a few days to completely reshape their world-view into something that goes against everything they were before.

• You and your companions find that there is always enough time to keep your relationships strong and growing. Even if you decide to gather a harem of hundreds of women, you somehow have enough time and space in your heart to love and spend as much time with them as you would a single partner.

• Yes, 'your' companions can have impossibly large harems of their own (it's now yours too), if they want, with the same rules as yours. Yes, you can do research before assuming a form that makes the starting point better.

• You have a comforting presence that makes people around you more open to receiving hugs from you and seeking you out for future hugs when they need one and you are available and willing to give hugs.

• Your hugs give the effect the other person needed at that time from happiness to comfort to safety, etc. and are never too long or short for them as long as you're both not pressed for time.

• Your hugs have healing power in them, able to make someone feel better when emotionally hurt, bring their mind back from insanity, and even hug illnesses and disease away so they're gone the next day, even physical pain is lowered significantly and you will never hurt the other person when you hug them. This is for when you don't want fame or attention for helping them as it'll seem like a miracle occurred.

• You can hug anyone and never be harmed by any effects that would make hugging them physically impossible. You could hug Rogue without her power stealing your life-force, or Johnny Storm while he's on fire, a prickly cactus man without getting pricked, or even embrace Death without losing your life. This only works for hugs and the snuggling/cuddling effect below.

• You can shift any hug into snuggling/cuddling without the other person minding too much but only if you want to. This will cure the other person of any touch starvation they've been experiencing.

• Whenever you are in need of hugs someone you wouldn't mind being hugged by, that you know, will give you a hug or ask if you want one, this will happen naturally like giving you a hug when they walk by you to the kitchen to get a drink or when they check up on you.

• This Essence and its effects cannot be used with the intent to take advantage of other people sexually. You can share the effects of this Essence with anyone to spread the wholesome love.
