Essence of the Beastmaster

 By consuming the essence of the Beastmaster, you gain several boons:

○You become immune to all forms of venom. You gain a resistance to plant-based or inorganic poisons, though while usually not fatal or lasting you still suffer symptoms of poisoning. Diseases and parasites entering your body become inert until your body naturally expels them.

○Wild animals and monsters will not see you as a threat and only attack if rabid or attacked by you first. Creatures of human intellect like Sphinxes or dragons capable of human speech can make the conscious choice to attack you, but will instinctively have a positive impression of you.

○You gain an instinctive knowledge of the characteristics of every beast you encounter, including their requirements for habitat and food, how to best approach them, and how to treat any injuries or illnesses they might have.

○Any beast or monster you approach with the intent of taming them will rapidly grow to trust you so long as you don't mistreat them. You will form a mental bond with any creature you're taming that lets you sense the needs and thoughts of the creature, with the speed of the bond's growth determined by the creature's intelligence, aka the smarter it is the longer it'll take to fully tame the creature. Once the bond is complete the now tamed creature can be summoned to your side or dismissed either back where it came from or into a storage-dimension at will. Should a tamed creature die it will instead appear inside the storage-dimension and can be summoned after a waiting-period determined by the power of the creature. Creatures with a completed bond will be completely loyal to you and you will be able to share their senses at will. You can have an unlimited number of Bonds. Humanoid creatures without sapience such as primates or monsters such as goblins or orcs can be tamed so long as their intellect is insufficient to develop language or a culture. You can only form a bond with Monstergirls that are at least 50% nonhuman, so a centaur, lamia, arachne or mermaid would be tameable while a dwarf, elf, satyr, or human would not be.

○You can train animals or monsters, even those you haven't tamed so long as they cannot leave mid-training, in a fraction of the time it would normally require, and can train them beyond their normal limits, like teaching a monkey martial arts or a carrier-pidgeon how to read maps and fly to specific locations pointed out on that map. Things you trained a creature to do will never be forgotten.

○If you have tamed a member of a certain species you can make requests of untamed creatures of the same species. They aren't forced to comply, but if the request is something they can understand and that doesn't go against their nature or self-preservation-instincts the creature will usually comply. You can also give commands to larger groups of untamed creatues at once, and a group might comply when an individual would not. Asking a single rat to attack a grown human will be met with refusal, a swarm of hundreds of rats however will attack as requested.

○You can freely induce or suppress a tamed creature's mating-period. A creature born from two tamed creatures will automatically be born fully tamed. When breeding two tamed creatures you will see what traits the offspring could have and can freely manipulate them to give the offspring the desired traits, though you cannot add traits that the parent-creatures didn't have, so while you could breed, say, a lion bigger and stronger than it's parents, you cannot give it wings or gills. You could repopulate a species so long as you have a single breeding-pair and will never have to worry about inbreeding. You can mate two normally incompatible creatures to design new species, though the pregnancy-period for such cross-breeding will be between 1,5-10 times longer, depending on how drastic the difference between the parent-species is.

○Tamed creatures can survive in climates they normally wouldn't and can survive without food, though they will suffer. You can convert an area of up to 200 cubic meters into a habitat for your tamed creature with a climate and environment most suited for that creature. The shape of the habitat is up to you, it can be a cube, sphere, or completely irregular shape. It takes multiple days to set up an environment, and once you dismiss it the area will return to its original state within a few hours. Habitats are stationary, once created they can't be moved and the habitat's shape cannot be altered. You can have one habitat for each tamed creature, but you cannot create an environment unless you have a tamed creature that thrives in that type of environment. Also, if you have a tamed creature or are in the process of taming a creature that's native to environments hostile to you, such as the open ocean, arctic or volcanic wastelands, or even space, you will be able to survive in that space as well as the creature itself can. Note that this doesn't grant you the creature's abilities, so while you could for example survive in space, deep underwater or even in magma, your ability of locomotion remains unchanged. So you can't fly even if you tame a creature that literally spends its entire life airborne, though you will be able to endure cold and thin air much better.

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 them 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 minutes 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 are 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 stubbern 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 dependant 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 go through with, to a few days to completely reshape their world-view into something that goes against everything they were before.

Essence of the Puppeteer

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

●You gain a instinctive knowledge of mechanics, gadgets, and certain arcane arts. You can construct puppets from a variety of materials, from ordinary wood and metal over flesh to materials not normally usable, such as water or fire, and the puppets you build will be far stronger and resilient than their base-materials would suggest. Puppets can be created near-instantly from malleable substances like water, fire or clay, though such instant-puppets are comparably simple, their only special ability aside from maintaining the traits of their base-material being that they can use their malleable nature to change their forms.

●When manually crafting a puppet you can construct and install numerous devices and weapons into the puppet, even when the devices would normally be too large or bulky to fit into the puppet's frame. Any installed device will not hinder the puppet's mobility in any way and be effectively weightless inside the puppet. Any weapon can be withdrawn from the puppet's body so long as the opening it's drawn from is large enough to withdraw the object from, in other words if the puppet pulls a sword out the opening must be large enough that the handguard can freely pass through.

●When touching a puppet you can by channeling your own energy into it upgrade its capabilities, making it stronger, faster, and more resilient. This process can be repeated without limited, though the process is exhausting for you and the stronger the puppet is the more energy it takes to further upgrade it. Channeling energy into a damaged puppet can also repair it as long as it hasn't been completely destroyed, though depending on the puppet additional materials may be needed. This process can also be used on instant-, corpse- and living puppets, the latter two can be repaired without additional materials in return for a greated cost in energy.

●Any spells or special abilities you have you can convert into an array that you can inscribe on a puppet, letting the puppet instantly activate that spell or ability. Note that this will still drain you as if you had performed the ability yourself, however you can store energy inside the puppet, letting it activate its arrays by drawing from the stored energy rather than yours. As these arrays need to be inscribed manually, instant-puppets cannot use arrays unless you personally modify the puppet.

●You can control puppets remotely and telepathically. Movement of fingers to guide it is unnecessary, though it can improve fine-control. A puppet not actively controlled will shift into an inert state, though you can program it to act automatically in specific circumstances, like dodging an attack, though it will react mechanically and only exactly as programmed if pre-set conditions are met, hence you need to be very specific in your programming if you want any level of successful autonomous action. No matter how many inputs are given you cannot turn a puppet sentient, though a puppet with decades worth of programming may seem so to an outside observer.

●You can turn a fresh or well-preserved corpse into a puppet you can control. A corpse-puppet retains all special abilities the person or creature had in life in addition to any device or array you install into it. You can also activate a form of auto-pilot in the corpse-puppet that makes it move and fight with the same level of skill, however the auto-pilot will not be able to operate any devices or arrays added to the puppet that body didn't have in life. You can activate them by command and the puppet's autopilot will compensate as best it can, however most activations will reduce the effectiveness of the autopilot's combat-performance.

●With careful preparation you can turn a living creature into a living puppet. You can add weapons, devices and even extremities to this puppet to turn the puppet into a frankenstein-esque creature or a complete abomination, though as the puppet is still a living creature care must be taken that the vital functions are not compromised during modification. Alternatively you can choose to leave the body unchanged, though when empowering it with your energy you're able to cause slow cosmetic changes to the puppet. Transforming a living being into a living puppet destroys their conscience, though you can choose to preserve the mental faculties and memories of the subject, creating a puppet that can act independantly and even re-integrate into their past life, though a change in personality will be noticed by others as the puppet no longer has a true sense of self and will only strive to fulfill your orders, a biological robot rather than a follower or subordinate.

●You have a pocket-dimension in which you can instantly store any of your puppets and summon them at will. You can also keep materials, devices and tools in this dimension, though no living objects. Objects stored in your pocket-dimension do not degrade, and you can channel your energy into any stored puppets to upgrade or repair them as if you were touching them.

●You can at will possess any of your puppets, controlling them as if they were your own body and activating any mechanisms or arrays installed by instinct. Puppet-bodies do not possess a sense of pain, though you will have a sense of touch and be able to tell when the puppet has sustained damage. If the puppet you're possessing is destroyed, you can possess any other puppet outside of your pocket-dimension. Should there be no puppets outside of your pocket-dimension or you choose to, you will instead appear unharmed in a location of your choice that's within 100m of the destroyed puppet. While you are possessing a puppet your real body will be moved into your storage-dimension, it will neither age nor require sustenance of any kind whilst in the storage-dimension.
