Meta Essence CYOA 2

Essence of Ghennas' Harbinger

By Drinking the blood of the Most Ancient you gain power that is beyond compare.

●You gain the immortal power of an Antediluvian; a powerful vampire with few equals. You are capable of feats of strength and speed far beyond even the greatest humans, and are almost indestructible. Sunlight is merely painful to you(though deadly to your progeny) and Fire and crosses may be seen as slight annoyances.

●You may create progeny, which may in turn create progeny. Each step dilutes their power slightly, ensuring that none would be your equal. Differences will be highlighted if necessary. To do so, you need only feed a recently deceased person a mere drop of your blood. Though keep in mind the less blood you give them, the hungrier they will be.

●Choose a type of vampire, such as the classic Dracula, or a hopping vampire, or even something like Alucard(Hellsing). You gain all of their power, as well as logical extrapolations of their powers up to continent destroying levels. You may also learnthe abilities of other kinds of vampires (again, with conceivable extrapolations and increased power) or create entirely new powers with minimal effort. Your progeny intuit your chosen archetypes powers, and require teachers to learn other kinds powers.

●Your body is fueled by blood. While you are able to eat (and enjoy) food, it provides you no sustenance. Human blood now tastes like the finest wine, the best chocolate, and a rich steak somehow mixed pleasantly on your tongue.

●You may store near endless amounts of blood for later use inside yourself. Despite this, you arent under some kind of "hyper pressurization" or something. The blood simply exists inside you, somewhere.

●By feeding a small amount of blood to a human, you may grant them a fraction of your power. These "Ghouls" may easily go out in sunlight, and suffer none of the weaknesses of vampires. Additionally, as long as you feed them blood monthly they do not age. As a trade off, they must be kept hooked on your blood, or their powers will wane. Your progeny may also do this.

Essence of Pentex

This cheerfully colored bottle hides a foul, brackish liquid that Grant's several powers.

●You become an incredible business man/woman, capable of creating a multi-billion dollar business in a matter of weeks.

●You gain an incredible sense of what to do to prevent, or even profit from scandals.

●By concentrating, you or an underling of yours may condense a sort of metaphysical ooze made up of negative concepts. Things like pollution, greed, cannibalism, anything that is seen by the majority as being a "bad". You may use this for your other powers.

●You may infuse the Ooze into objects or people, granting them thematic powers and mutations based on the concept involved. This power correlated directly to how much of the negative aspects are used by your business.

●Anyone who imbibes the Ooze becomes unswervingly loyal to you, willing to perform any action without hesitation or complaint. Arguements may form if you force two people infected by opposing concepts to work together, but they will still work together to complete any task you give them.

●This essence is not responsible for any nausea, blurred vision, murderous impulses, or sociopathy that may result from Pentex. If you experience any of these symptoms, please consult your nearest Magadon Pharmacist for treatment.

●Pentex: an equal opportunity employer.

Essence of ascension warrior

By imbibing this liquid, the secrets of the universe unfold.

●You gain knowledge of the Truth of reality: It is Malleable, controlled by the underlying consensus of the sentient. And in doing so, you've learned to Express your own beliefs, becoming a Mage

●Choose how your reality expresses itself, otherwise known as Magic. This can be anything from standard druidic practices to creating fantastical mathematics that prove you right. Almost anything can define your magic.

●The magic you use depends on a metaphysical understanding of the world. The interactions may take time, effort, and study, but virtually anything is possible.

●Your magic takes time, requiring several minutes of ritualized use of your method (things like an actual ritual, building a machine, or performing a long kata). However, you may develop shortcuts that drastically reduce the time it takes for a specific effect (such as waving a wand and saying "Fuego" to shoot a fireball). Developing a shortcut can take several hours.

●You may likewise create wonderous objects with your magics bound into their being. These Wonders vary in difficulty to create, generally correlating to size and complexity of the desired Magic. A wand of Fireball is always going to be easier than gloves that mold all matter like clay. Anyone can use your wonders.

●You may, at your choice, give others knowledge of the malleability of reality. This gift, once given, cannot be taken away.

●Your powers are governed by the Consensus, a metaphysical understanding of the Majority that this *is* how the world works. Going against this concept makes the interactions of your magic difficult, especially with greater and greater numbers of witnesses. Though you can mitigate this with effects that slide beneath the notice of most people. If you should change a person's understanding of reality, then your magic will flow freely in front of them.

Essence of the Dreaming

Imbibing this fanciful concoction gives you several powers.

●You gain a Fae Soul; an immortal and eternally reincarnating extra soul that promotes creativity. Unlike other Changelings, you will always remember your past lives. Should you choose, you will always be the dominant personality.

●You are able to enter "The Dreaming," which is a fanciful personification of the collective imagination of humanity. This place is not without dangers, but you may create safe paths through areas you have explored before.

●You gain a fantastical form based on folklore and your innate desires known as a Fae Mein. This may be anything, from a large stone giant to a small gnome to a strange monster-girl(or boy). This is your default form in the Dreaming, and in the real world you may shift between this form and your normal form at will.

●You gain 3 Birthrights, minor magical powers that are linked to your Fae story. Examples include flight, durable skin, gaining strength from duty, or changing into a single animal.

●You may change your Fae Mein and Birthrights by spending an hour in concentration.

●You gain access to some of the Artes and Realms of the Changelings. Artes are an effect, such as lighting something on fire or changing something (or someone) into a frog. Realms are a what you may use them on, such as lighting your knife on fire, or turning your neighbors cat into a frog. You may create new Artes and Realms with time and effort.

●You may create Chimera. Objects and beings made from the substance of the Dreaming. Anything from a simple rock to a cthuloid monstrosity can be made, but the more powerful it is the harder it is to create. Mortals can only see Chimera if you choose to make them visible.

●You may use the Chimera in the real world as normal should you choose, but the mortals surrounding you cannot interact with the objects. A sword may cut a mortal, but that mortal may not pick up that sword: his hand will just pass through it.

●You may imbue an object or Chimera with your Artes. This is called a Treasure, and allows anyone to use the Arte as normal. You may imbue Treasures with Artes you do not possess if it is thematically or symbolicly appropriate, such as making a sword light in fire at will or having gauntlets that increase your strength.

●You may place a shard of yourself into another mortal, slowly growing into an ordinary Fae soul for them to use. Your powers are weakened slightly for a few days after this, before returning to full strength. The seeds turn people into ordinary Changelings, gaining a fae mein and being able to interact with the Dreaming as you do. You may also take this soul from them, causing intense pain.

Essence of the Fallen

In becoming a Fallen, you become an Immortal spirit, capable of inhabiting (or if powerful enough, creating) bodies to interact with the world.

●Your powers come from faith. Faith in yourself, preferably from others. This need not be religious fervor, instead being any sort of assurance you could offer.

●You are able to perform Miracles: acts fueled by the Faith other beings have in you. These acts can range from slight boosts of luck to one, to causing plants to grow, to even manipulating the foundations of the universe. The more Faith you acquire, the greater these feats can (and will) be.

●You gain the power to assume an Apocalypse Form when you are possessing someone. This form grant's several times the bodies natural strength, speed, and durability, on top of several natural abilities that come directly from the form. Your Apocalypse form may look however you wish, but be warned: all Apocalypse Forms carry an aura of fear in them, as if the wrath of an angry god was to descend at a moment's notice. Even those who know you would never harm them would be uncomfortable seeing you in this form.

●Any partners you have a connection with may have their fetishes altered to any specifications you desire. They will find nothing strange about this.

You innately and naturally understand these powers.

●You may, with proper knowledge, create Rituals to empower those around you, either turning a human or animal into a shapeshifter, with the same four forms that you have. Animals gain a slight boost to their intellect as well.

●Additionally, you may use your rituals to provide small buffs to fellow shapeshifters, such as a limited danger sense or a temporary invisible armor.

●You may, through dealings with a spirit, coax it into inhabiting an object. This object gains unique powers based on the spirit inside of it, such as a fire spirit lighting a blade on fire or a time spirit showing whenever time is disrupted.
