Essence of Progenitor Human
By consuming the essence of the Progenitor Human, you gain several boons:
Superior Body: Become the origin point of humanity, with a body vastly superior to any normal human in all attributes. You can develop abilities innate to other versions of mankind, such as bloodlines and strange powers, which will grow to match your level over time.
Immunity and Agelessness: You are immune to poison and disease, and you are ageless.
Resource Creation: Create resources from nothing, manifesting them as you wish, such as pillars of gold or fresh water ponds. You can also create plants and animals, but not other sapient beings.
Extreme Charisma: Possess extreme charisma, able to rally strangers with a few words and gain die-hard loyal supporters easily. Humans will see you as a symbol of the species, and even beasts and monsters may be overwhelmed by your mandate to rule nature.
Rapid Learning: Learn extremely quickly, taking in months of experience in days, years in weeks, and decades or centuries in years.
Survival and Adaptation: Survive and thrive in desperate situations, adapting accordingly even when logically you would likely die.
Universal Understanding: Learn and understand anything with enough study, including reverse engineering and reproducing alien devices or magical artifacts with human sciences. You can also uplift primitive human groups to your level of science and technology.
Hybrid Breeding: Breed with anything, resulting in viable half-human hybrids that take more after their human side. This ability is toggleable.
Human Types:
Men of Gold: Closest to you in abilities, able to generate resources and learn quickly. They do not visibly age and have long lifespans but are difficult to breed. Natural leaders.
Men of Silver: Smaller and inferior to Men of Gold but still vastly superior to lesser men. Easier to breed and effective seconds to Men of Gold.
Men of Bronze: Physically powerful and aggressive, retaining quick learning abilities. War is in their blood, and they develop strong combat abilities. Can be bred in large numbers and work well under Men of Silver or Gold.
Men of Iron: Enhanced mundane humans, closer to the peak of humanity but lacking other inheritances. Extremely easy to breed, similar to regular humans.
