AI summary

Makes you an Unwritten, your existence devoured by the Leviathan of Stories, which lets you influence Narrative directly as the Unplanned Ending — creating Plot Divergences and forcing new endings, so the Little Match Girl need not die. The End of Stories actively hunts you to stop that interference, and the cycle repeats in each new world until you realise your True Self, of which the End of Stories is merely the other half. You have written yourself out of the Laws of Narrativity so Fate, Destiny and prophecy are only suggestions, your limitations are likewise suggestions so you can eventually learn anything (even things you were not studying), magic systems come easily with their drawbacks weaponisable, and requirements slowly cease to bind you.

Generated précis — the sections below are the author's original text.

Description

By looking at this Blank Page intently, you felt something in your very existence erased completely as if devoured by something greater than everything in the universe.

Effects

36
  • You have obtained a one-time appearance change ticket. Using this ticket will cosmetically and retroactively change your appearance across space and time in your current life. This appearance is your default form.

  • What a troubling existence you’ve become… You are an Unwritten, the one whose very existence was devoured by a Higher Entity known as the Leviathan of Stories.

  • As an Unwritten, you are able to influence Narrative itself. You are the Unplanned Ending, it’s time to live up to your name.

  • This aspect of the Essence allows you to create Plot Divergences and ensure new paths to new endings.

  • But be warned, there is an entity out there known only as the End of Stories. It will actively try to stop you as it doesn’t want interference from the ongoing story and will actively try to stop you and anyone from reaching the new ending. But every tunnel has a light in the end, should you manage to reach a sufficient threshold in the new path, you’ll find it easier to get to the ending you want the most. The moment you cross the line to the ending you chose, the End of Stories would give up as it has realized that you have won that ending.

  • The cycle repeats when you found yourself in a new Story, or a new world.

  • This aspect will be removed once you fully realized who you truly are and ascended into your True Self. After all, the End of Stories is merely the other half of your True Self.

  • An example would be the Little Match Girl. Normally, she will die, but should you somehow appear on her Story, the ending will be different.

  • No longer are you shackled by Laws of Narrativity themselves as you have somehow wrote yourself out of them. Destiny? Fate? Those are merely suggestions to what you are. Every single prophecy written or yet to be written will immediately fail the moment you appear in the Setting or World. This also makes you a big target if those that do know Destiny or Fate closely watches what caused the change in the first place.

  • Over time, this aspect of the Essence will turn into a False Positive prophecy yet to come. Allowing prophecies that didn’t involve you come into fruition in more ways than one.

  • As the Unwritten, your limitations are merely a suggestion. You can learn everything with enough time. You can even learn when not even doing the one you were supposed to learn, but that will take a little bit longer than actually trying to learn.

  • Magic Systems and the like will be quite easier with no negative impact against you. You may even use the negatives as a weapon like the heat produced by a mana circuit.

  • Things that have requirements are merely a suggestion but it is learned slowly.

  • After truly realizing who you are, the slow learning rate is removed.

  • Being the Unwritten makes you quite capable of hiding yourself out of the Narratives. Allowing you to view the Setting or the World as a book and the current event that is happening is merely just a page you can read. You can insert yourself at any point of time in the Narrative achieving some sort of time travel.

  • You may instead phase yourself in-between the Narratives, causing some sort of self-propagating Normality Aura of Cognitive Entropy around you. Everyone and everything will perceive you as Normal as you can be. Everything you do will always be considered normal. This is very much a curse in and of itself. It will become boring, and jarringly cosmic horror, at some point but at least you can tell everyone that you can hide in plain sight.

  • Whenever you are outside the Narratives, you can see a blank white expanse with clouds made out of Pataphorical Ink. Sometimes, those Pataphorical Ink Clouds will rain down words to fill in the blank pages of the Setting or World you are in. You may influence the rain to form new paths for the Setting or World to continue forwards.

  • This is the Blank Page Beyond the Narratives, this is where Stories are written on its surface. Consider this place a form of a Hub Dimension that acts as an Interdimensional Nexus. Stories exist in the form of landmasses here. A mountain here is a Story that gained more than a million words. Each Stories are separated by literal oceans made out of countless words formed from Pataphorical Ink.

  • Be warned, the more changes you cause, the better the End of Stories will be able to track you down and stop you by kicking you out of that Setting or World into a new one. Then they will block you from going back and changing what you have caused unless you achieved the true realization of who you truly are.

  • You have obtained a special Pen that is filled with a Pataphorical Ink. Using this pen will allow you to make some changes in the Narrative, which in turn change reality itself. The Metaphorical Ink will regenerate after each month.

  • You may even use the Pen to get a fictional ability but do note that it will only work if you know the ability truly.

  • You may use the Pataphorical Ink Rain whenever you appear out of the Narratives to refill the Pen.

  • Optionally, the Pen becomes an ability akin to the Conduits of the Infamous Setting. You absorb the Pataphorical Ink into your body instead of an object. You will gain a tattoo that is the visual representation of how much Pataphorical Ink you currently have with the tattoo losing details and fading away the less you have.

  • After you have fully realized who you really are, you may expend all the Pataphorical Ink you have in store for the entire month to get an Essence you want the most.

  • You held onto it. The belief that you can be something better, something greater than what you currently are. Then you learned something. There’s no such thing as absolute or perfection. With this imperfect realization, you finally realized who you truly are. You are the very thing that caused you to become Unwritten in the first place. You are the Unwritten Leviathan of Stories. The One who is Truly Unwritten.

  • As the Unwritten Leviathan of Stories, your control over the Narratives is absolute. No individual in the Grand Omniverse can suborn that control. After all, you are now the one writing the script, and the Metaphorical/Pataphorical Ink is your will to ensure every Destiny or Fate will happen or not.

  • By fusing with your other half, the End of Stories, you are capable of Ending anything even those without an Ending by giving them what they really needed… an End.

  • You may give away a copy of this Essence to another by doing what you did to yourself, consuming their Existence to make them into a new Unwritten. However, they won’t become an Unwritten Leviathan of Stories by their own right unless you guide them through a profound realization of what may be, what may seem, and what could be. Be warned that the more Unwritten you make, the more likely Existence itself will be destroyed.

  • Optionally, you may start fully realized. However, doing so, you won’t have the mental growth or enlightenment that will happen as you didn’t do the journey meant for you. You may still have an enlightenment, but it won’t be the same as before. Do be warned that you are shirking true growth for true power immediately.

  • This option doesn’t have the above aspect until you have achieved a form of enlightenment that only you can experience.

  • Optionally, you may choose to forget about this Essence’s existence. Doing this will not cause the End of Stories to appear as it will be intrinsically a part of you, but without a form of true enlightenment, you will not be able to access the full capabilities of this Essence.

  • You may take any characters as your companions. However, unlike the other Essences, you actually need to have them willingly join you. In turn, they will gain access to the Blank Page Beyond the Narratives as an Interdimensional Hub/Nexus.

  • By taking this Essence, you can’t take the other two Essences in the [Purveyors of Narratives] series: the One who Impacts the Continuities and the One who Paints beyond the Canvas. If you, somehow, have taken all three, you will only receive one of the three. This is the price of having so much power.

  • This Essence can’t be erased, forcibly changed, removed, or stolen. Doing so will incur the wrath of your true self, the Unwritten Leviathan of Stories.

  • As you reach the end of this Essence’s description, you find a note taped on its back:

  • “To the one who took this Essence, I gave you the means to write your Story with your own hands. No longer shall your potential ever be tarnished by the means outside your control. No longer shall you have be puppeteered by Fate for you have wrenched its threads and force it to become your puppet instead. Your journey’s ending is yours to behold. Have fun, and keep on writing better tomorrows for the future you want the most.” - An Essence Maker, the 1337th Magnus of the Space Battles undergoing Sufficient Velocity and performing Questionable Quests of Sufficiently Munchkining Frozen Carbonite.
