Essence ofAkashic Record

By drinking this Essence, you gain the Ultimate Skill: Akashic Record - Lord Of Information.

• Skill Mimicry: The ability to replicate the effects and abilities of Skills without having to actually possess the Skill in question. The abilities aren't permanent and will lose out when compared to abilities backed by other Ultimate Skills but doesn't require energy to be permanently lost for their use.

• Skill Creation: The ability to create new Skills from either wishes or analyzed data. When creating a Skill you permanently lose energy equal to the power of the Skill. Skills created from compiled data or the fusion of other Skills are astronomically less costly, practically free. Fully powered copies of any Skill can be made with sufficient data.

• Why use Creation at all when Mimicry has no cost? Because the abilities granted by Mimicry are slightly weaker than abilities backed by an Ultimate Skill, so Mimicry is best for short term uses while Creation has the backing of an Ultimate Skill's power and is better for the long term.

• Skill Analysis: This can be done through two methods: touching the entity with the Skills you want analyzed, which will instantly and without being perceived by entities or Skills completely analyze all Skills that entity has. The second method is to perceive the Skills while being used. Copied/gifted Skills don't need to be activated to be analyzed due to not being etched into a Nucleus/Heart Core. Abilities and magics not native to Tensura will be turned into Skills for your use after analysis.

• Skill Destruction: You can damage Skills to the point of massively lowered functionality or outright destroy them. Damaged Skills recover over time but destroyed Skill are lost permanently, unless a backup of its data is made before destruction by intelligent Skills like Raphael or Michael or others.

• Skill Evolution: The ability to evolve Skills in the directions and ways you want: Common to Extra to Unique to Ultimate and further. It can also be used to evolve Skills belonging to others too, you can decide whether it is you or them that shoulders the cost of this boon. Evolving a Skill permanently lowers your max energy capacity depending on the power of the Skill's desired outcome but it's much cheaper in terms of cost that outright creating the Skill in the long run.

• Skill Manipulation: Combine, dissect, grant, steal and alter Skills in any conceivable way. This ability makes the acquisition of newer Skills far easier than it should normally be through the mix and matching of various Skill's properties and effects similar to the Unique Skill {Degenerate}. Created Skills can be broken back into energy at a 100% efficiency rating. Any Skill below Ultimate in power can be taken without much challenge but trying to steal an Ultimate Skill from its natural wielder will lead to a great battle of wills, and no one who's ever awakened an Ultimate Skill was weak of will.

• Now for some Essence perks. Your soul can bear an endless number of Skills regardless of how powerful they are. Gain truly perfect compatibility with any and all Skills. Skills in your possession can't be analyzed, copied or negatively manipulated in any way.

• If you don't have magicules, then you can use any other energy source you have for fueling this Skill's abilities.
