Essence of theInfernal Bones

Stabbing yourself with this bone-white spike, you felt a momentary pain before a feeling of an Artist wasting their potential for a manhwa with a horrible plot. Like, the fight is good and all, but the plot is a fucking slop. Then numerous black portals surrounded you briefly.

• You have gained a single-use Appearance Ticket. This retroactively changes your appearance permanently. If you desire to be the skinny moronic protagonist or a sleazy rich boy, it’s up to you.

• You have done something horrible to yourself and awakened as a… Hunter? Huh? What the fuck? No wait, there’s a smudge in the notes. You have become an Awakened. An individual who gained special powers from the energies given by a portal, that may or may not linked to Hell or a Hellish dimension. Unlike the other Awakened, you are Special. No, not like that Special. You develop new Special Powers over time, and may even accelerate the Special Power generation by training the ones you currently have. Not only that but the more you experience something, the more likely the Special Power you’ve obtained will interact or counter it, like making a bony exoskeleton that is capable fo shattering diamonds.

• You currently have the power of Regeneration. This power, despite what it is named, actually grants you the power to manifest a very durable bone-like exoskeleton by over-regenerating yourself. This exoskeleton is strong enough to shatter diamonds. Unfortunately, this power doesn’t have the means to retract that exoskeleton, so you are pretty much stuck with that bony exoskeleton unless you gained a special power that allows you to do so.

• This gradually makes you adapt and evolve over time, making you more resistant to the damage done to you.

• You actually have another power. It is Power Absorption. This power allows you to take the powers of any person you have killed. However, this power is sealed away and you need to find a way to unseal it, as if you need someone to unseal it.

• Now for something horrifying. Remember that black portal earlier? I lied. You are actually a living generator of the energy came from those portals, specifically Hellish Energies. You can produce and store the Hellish Energies limitlessly. Any energies that are similar to the Hellish Energies you have will allow you to convert your energy to that energy.

• The Hellish Energies have granted you a Trauma-Maxxing Aura. Any being that even interacts or grazes upon the Aura will have a traumatizing event happen to them. This aura exudes misery to the point that it is incredibly painful to just be near you all the times. (Effectively making you Maidenless).

• Don’t worry, your allies won’t be traumatized… mostly because they are traumatized by your existence.

• You have immense willpower to the point that when you are buried underground and encased with diamond, you will fucking punch your way out even if your body breaks or you become a monster to do so.

• You are incredibly agile, durable, and strong. You can walk in the middle of a gunfire and stab someone, whilst receiving minor damage. This aspect increases in strength the more Special Power you have, making you faster, more durable, and stronger.

• Optionally, you are very much like the final boss of Bones. Your powers are unmatched to the point that you can tamper with souls. However, doing so will cast out your Heart and make them live on as a Human. This results in you having a single weakness to be exploited if your foes someone figure it out.

• Optionally, this Essence grants you a Hellish Dimension for you to rule over. You may open black portals at will to go or invade a World or Setting. Unfortunately, you don’t have any means to create life here yet, so its just a ginormous empty yet Hellish dimension.

• Normally, you will be given the means to travel to the Setting that the Essence is based upon. You have gained something extra. If you somehow make the Setting of Bones more interesting than the canon happenings of the story, you are granted an extra Essence. Whether you invade the Setting or derail it immediately.

• Be warned, the Setting of Bones is stuck in a time loop.

• This Essence can’t be erased, forcibly changed, removed, or stolen.

• Fanwank responsibly.
