Essence of theArmed With Wings

Imbibing this Essence has caused you to hear an annoying screech of a bird of unknown origin and the amount of salt produced by the janky controls of a flash game.

• Here’s your obligatory One-Time Appearance Sculpt! Take it, or leave it be!

• You are no longer just a mere mortal but something else entirely. There is a spark of greatness inside you that cannot and will not ever be snuffed. You are the fated one, the One Armed With Wings!

• Yes, in case you didn’t know, you have a pair of wings that could detach upon you and turn into a bird. But that is not the point of this Essence. This Essence ensures that you will always be fated to be someone who will lead people to greatness and bring ruination to your foes, whether the role is good or evil is something you have to choose for yourself. You are also biologically immortal, aging into your prime and then stopping permanently, and your memories will not degrade through the passage of time.

• Unlike the original Armed With Wings whose benefactor is the Blackmist, your benefactor is your very own future self. A being that has the powers of both the Blackmist and the Network.

• People might mistake you for an angel, even though you don’t have a halo.

• Like the Blackmist and the Network, you have their respective powers of Creation and Destruction. They aren’t magic but something else entirely. They are still weak though, you need to train them first to be viable enough for usage.

• Through Creation, you can use the Light to seal people or even travel elsewhere in a pillar of light.

• Through Destruction, you can obliterate an immortal or even put those who don’t have a concept of death to the metaphorical sword and kill them permanently. The repercussions of such things are beyond you. To everyone else? That’s going to be a problem.

• Due to this aspect of the Essence, if you die, you will respawn in a safe place.

• You have a specialized HUD that you can see. It details everything you have, even Essences. This is not similar to a Gamer as you don’t level up in normal terms. You need points to do so and place them into skills. They are gained from battling foes, training, and doing missions… Okay, maybe it is similar to a Gamer. However, it doesn’t give you a body to be like a player character, so you can still be maimed with all the gory bits withstanding.

• You can still level up skills normally but without the points, the process may or may not be faster than you expected them to be.

• Your mind and will to endure is truly immense, even being tortured in a hopeless prison won’t break you.

• Basically, infinite willpower and immunity to negative mind status effects. (e.g. mind control, brainwashing, dementia, etc…)

• You are gifted in the Art of War. Not only can you fight armies by yourself, but you are also a master strategist and tactician. Every foe will dance according to the image of your most ideal warfare, metaphorically. Unless you have something that will force them to dance, then you won’t see a literal dance battle.

• Like Vandheer, you can ensure that your armies will always win as if you’re doing a morning jog… unless some hapless no-name do-gooder wakes up with the power of god and anime at his side to beat the shit out of you, then your rule will always be absolute.

• Magic flows to you naturally. It’s as if magic itself wants to be used by your very will. You can use it to conjure blasts of any elements you can think of, and even use it to spam teleportation everywhere in the area to attack your foes. Unfortunately, you are not skilled enough to do so. Maybe, train this aspect of your power and see how far are you willing to take this power to its absolute limits.

• The Element of Ice seems to attract itself to you as if you are THE Vandheer Lorde himself. It is the first element that is already maxed out at the start.

• Technically this isn’t magic but an expression of your Creation.

• You have access to the items and technologies located in the Armed With Wings setting. However, do note that they aren’t created yet and you need to use your power over Creation to make them first.

• The four Blades of Eden have already been created… You have no idea who made them. They are, however, sent across the local Multiverse you are in and they are located in Temples that only you can go into and find as you are the only one who can track them down. Taking them will result in the Temple slowly crumbling due to the passage of time, forcing you to make a quick getaway before you are trapped inside them.

• The Temples will test your skills and power to the absolute limit. They may or may not have guardians and traps that could make you die a lot. Like those annoying wind gusts and spike walls in the temple where the Wind Blade of Eden is located.

• You cannot access the Setting of Armed With Wings for some reason, as if someone or something is keeping you out of it. You may, however, take this power to travel to other Settings using the pillars of light you have access to through your Creation.

• Should you want to do so, you may gift this Essence to someone else, granting them the full powers that you have if they train themselves. Do note that you will still retain some of its aspects but it won’t be an Essence anymore.

• This Essence can’t be stolen, changed forcibly, or even destroyed.

• Fanwank responsibly.

• Vandheer is a cool person. Literally.
