Nathan's CYOA Powers and Perks

If you're a new reader, don't read this if you don't want to be spoiled.

Body Powers:

Super Soldier Serum | Marvel | Lesser |

You become a super soldier similar to Steve Rogers having undergone the Erskine Procedure, giving you an enhanced body and mind surpassing the perfected peak of your species, practically making you superhuman. The procedure cures any previous ailments you had and causes your physical appearance to be changed into the best possible version of yourself with an olympian physique fit for every sport. This lets you process information at blinding speeds, grants you an accelerated learning aptitude, enhances your reflexes, enhances metabolism, grants perfect resistance to toxins and pathogens, increases muscle and bone density, maximizes healing, alters your biology, and augments the effects of dopamine, testosterone, adrenaline, and various other endorphins and hormones to beyond the peak of human efficiency in order to further amplify physical and mental performance. You have no recovery period, meaning you can exert yourself at peak performance for hours without fatiguing. Altogether, you are capable of tossing large trees over your head, outpacing vehicles, running down motorbikes on foot, and more. The serum will not have any negative effects on your mind.

Discipline Powers:

Bending | Avatar: The Last Airbender | Lesser |

You gain the innate ability to control an element, becoming a bender of either fire, air, water, or earth with the potential to master the element and access its specialized and advanced techniques. You also gain 'Chi' within your body that facilitates your abilities. Through bending, you can move, shape, and sculpt that element with your body and will. Using Bending to its fullest requires the performance of specialized martial arts and spiritual awakening. Without extreme measures, psychic bending will elude you.

Chi-blocking skill and knowledge.

Every element after the first, you can only bend a single element at once.

Be a Pseudo Avatar, allowing you to bend multiple elements at once and use the Avatar state.

Energybending, allowing you to grant and take away bending, or impart knowledge, but this is risky to one's soul.

Item Powers:

None so far.

Perks:

Mastery Meditation | Bending |

You can intermittently achieve a meditative state where you enter a mental world. Within this world, you can train and practice the power this is purchased for; have an artificial entity with knowledge, skill, and teaching methods for the power; and an archive of techniques and knowledge for that power. The entity will usually be an iconic or powerful character from the Verse the power is taken from or is a former user, but is not them in truth. Rather, they are a simulation with their personality but are lacking their soul.

Despite time passing in the simulation, little to no time passes in the real world. However, you can only spend so much time in the simulation at once, usually around 1-6 hours and thereafter you must solve problems and engage in conflict to enter again, or wait a week (temporal effects etc, not counting). Physical improvements like muscle growth are retained. The teacher generally won't respond to unrelated things.

With these sessions, you will rapidly grasp the fundamentals of the power, can more quickly progress, and will have a higher chance of accessing very complex/advanced techniques. As an example, if you selected The Force, you might meet Obi-Wan Kenobi in a Jedi Temple simulacrum.

For simpler powers with a lot of crossover, like melee combat with most body powers, the sessions will allow composite training. If you select multiple Mastery Meditations, they can be combined into a single mental world where you can practice synergizing powers.

-=-

[Protections - These provide resistance to common non-direct methods of threat in many Verses and will protect you in the present, past, future, alternate timelines, etc For all of them, you can selectively allow certain effects to work on you with your own conscious non-coerced permission, this includes your own powers.]

Blind Spot — You are immune to magical, psychic, fate based, supernatural, advanced technological and other such effects of otherwise impossible analysis, detection, tracking, identification, remote viewing, predictions, calculations, scanning, modeling, precognition, alternate timeline viewing, post-cognition, etc. This also protects against watching for blind spots. Powers, tech and such designed to gather info about you provide no results. This works both on a grand scale that would take you into account, and specifically targeted on you to discern your identity, motives, alternate selves, abilities, status, weakness, location, and your actions past, present, and future, etc.

Invictus — Your mind, will, soul etc are immune to any form of mind control, mental attack, memory removal, soul manipulation, forced sleep, emotional alteration, madness inducement, hypnotism, possession, etc. Attempts to control your senses such as directly mind affecting illusions and anything that would unnaturally override or influence your behavior likewise fail. You also have a mind incredibly resistant to pain, trauma, or suffering and most other psychological conditions. You still feel emotions, but the weighted stress of living for a thousand years is unlikely to destroy your will, nor will experiencing extreme or long periods of discomfort like torture or isolation.

Inviolate — Your existence is unaffected by any effect that directly targets your internals/stability, or works inside out, such as a telefrag, a portal cut, telekinetic spine severing, time warping, gravity alteration, creating items inside your body, physics distortion, biology control, forced teleportation, matter erasure, instant death, etc. You also resist any hostile transformation, transmutation, or polymorph and the like. You are also immune to any form of poison, toxin, corruption, virus, disease, etc. But you can still die of natural old age.

Singularity — Your existence, and powers, rely on yourself and nothing else. Any attempt to copy, mimic, steal, drain, suppress, negate, nullify, weaken, control, reproduce, etc your powers by an external source fails automatically. You also resist curses, plot armor, prophecies, and the manipulation of fate, luck, concepts, causality, plot, probability, etc. You maintain independence from all verses, granting your resistance to certain reality-altering phenomena, such as wish granting, timeline changes and destruction, temporal paradoxes, vacuum decay, big crunches, and reality destroying events such as multiversal epoxies and causal retcons of the Meta narrative.

(Bonus Feature: If you purchase 2 or more of the protections, you can grant them to other individuals with a few seconds of concentrated contact. This requires your own conscious, non-coerced intent, and you can only grant protections you yourself have. Also, their versions are not as absolute as your own, and your own powers will work on them as normal. You can also take it away anytime you wish. There is a maximum number of individuals granted at a time based on how many protections you have: 1 (protections you own) = 0 (others), 2=2, 3=4, and all 4= as many as you wish.)

-=-

Babel Jack: Understand and communicate with most sapient creatures/some animals, despite language and psychological barriers through 'feeling' and gestures alone; can naturally learn to speak, read, and write most languages rapidly (conversational in less than 1 day) through exposure and or studying.

Clarity of Mind: Eidetic memory, improved focus, and quickened learning of most skills (a quarter of the time than normal).

Legendary Lover: You possess an innate mastery of the sexual arts and excel in the art of giving pleasure. You instinctively understand your partner's/partners' needs and boundaries, their most sensitive erogenous zones, and their sexual preferences. Your overall skill in bed will be such that you have complete control over when you ejaculate, can induce consecutive mind-blowing orgasms with just your hands and mouth, and will naturally know how to give the most pleasure at all times, physically and verbally.

Motion Memory: You can almost instantly imitate most complex movements/motor skills after seeing them performed once, such as martial arts, and with a little more practice or more observation you can both reproduce them at almost the same level, and fully adopt the muscle memory. Your overall coordination, spatial awareness, dynamic visual acuity, and reflexes are heightened to roughly peak human capacity.

Perpetuance: You require a tenth of the water and food you otherwise would and a fourth the sleep. Over a few days, you can naturally slowly recover from mundane disease, injury, or illness not normally possible (bones moving into place, etc.). This includes aging (limited immortality).

-=-

Shattered Limiter: The factors that keep all your powers' growth and abilities in check are completely erased. Your powers' growth and potential skyrockets, with your powers receiving a massive boost every ten years, even if you do nothing but live a normal life. Fighting, training, and experimenting using your powers on a regular basis drops this down to half the amount of time or less. The stronger the power, the more effort is required to improve, making it up to four times as long for most Greater powers, and difficult to estimate for Supreme powers.
