Essence of the Eastern Legend
By consuming the essence of the Eastern Legend, you gain several boons:
Supernaturally Healthy Body: You gain a body at the peak of your species, immune to disease and other illnesses. You can choose to be any species from Japanese myth or descended from a particular lineage.
Special Reserve of Energy: Access a special reserve of energy, such as Chakra, Youki, Ki, or a generic form of Spiritual Energy. This energy can enhance your body and allow you to perform supernatural actions like running across water or clinging to trees upside down. You can design a system for your chosen energy or copy an existing one.
Unique Bloodline: Optionally, gain a unique bloodline for your lineage. Customize it to be as benign or powerful as you wish, or copy a bloodline from an existing setting.
Limitless Willpower: You possess limitless willpower, enabling you to keep going against all odds, even if your body is falling apart.
Sprawling Compound: Optionally, gain your own sprawling compound warded against beings like Youkai. The compound includes shrines, workshops, training areas, hot springs, and other useful structures. It also has a library containing all the techniques of your specific system, including unique forbidden techniques. You can have Youkai servants inhabit the compound, though be mindful of the maneaters.
Setting Insertion: You can be inserted into a setting focused on a supernatural Japan or Japanese aesthetic, including urban fantasy settings that qualify.
