AI summary

Gives you peak human fitness, enhanced intelligence and near-photographic memory, then makes you a Progenitor Wizard capable of founding entirely new magic systems complete with their own laws. Building one requires comprehending the Concepts that define what spells it can contain, choosing a power source such as stamina, lifespan or soul energy, and deciding how spells are cast, whether through ritual, hand signs, chants or thought alone. You can enter a meditative state to feel Concepts in physical form as gods do, but unlike them you recreate each Concept you comprehend within yourself — and the more mages who use your system, the stronger it becomes, with supernaturally weak worlds suppressing a new system until enough practitioners take it up.

Effects

11
  • You gain peak human physical fitness and health.

  • You gain enhanced intelligence and almost photographic memory, allowing you to understand and remember large, complex information.

  • A Progenitor Wizard is one who has pioneered their own magic system/s complete with its own laws. As a Progenitor Wizard, you too have the ability form your own magic systems, as long as you follow certain principles:

  • Comprehend Different Concepts - Concepts are one of the foundations of any magic system. They determine what kind of spells a magic system can have. For instance, if you base your magic system on just the concept of fire, then you can use that particular system to create fire based spells. The more Concepts you comprehend, the more robust your magic system will be. As for what count as Concepts? Anything. Elements like fire, water, air, earth, lightning, things like a bottle, canned food, your mail, esoteric stuff like love, time, space, destiny, even people count as Concepts.

  • Power Source - Any magic system needs some source of power to run with. It could be something like your stamina, or your lifespan or even the energy given off by your very soul. You have to choose a power source for your magic system. Now, choosing a power source is very restrictive. You can only use power sources that exist in the world you're in. For instance, in modern world, you can use electricity or stamina or even nuclear energy as a power source, but can't use ambient magical energy as a source because there's no such thing in a modern world. As for how to determine if a world as certain power sources? Fanwank responsibly.

  • Spell Usage - After all this, you also have to choose how you use spells in your system. Do you use elaborate rituals? Hand signs and chants? Just your thoughts? It's entirely up to you how you go about doing it. Just remember, the easier the spell usage mechanism, the weaker the spell. A fireball cast through an elaborate ritual will be far stronger than one cast through your thoughts.

  • You can, at will, enter a meditative state in which your mind and soul is able to feel a physical representation of the different Concepts. This representation can take many forms depending on the person. Some may see Concepts as different pools in a large plain, some may see them as floating orbs, some may see other bizarre manifestations. No matter what form they may take, as long as you concentrate and observe these manifestations, you will rapidly comprehend these concepts.

  • You are not the only being able to reach and feel the Concepts, others depending on their power and/or nature can also do the same. A common example is Gods who are able to deeply to approach the Concepts their domains are based on. Whenever you comprehend a Concepts, it is possible for you to notice and be noticed by such beings. This can have good or bad consequences for you.

  • One of the things that separates you from such beings is that you can recreate the Concepts you comprehend within yourself. This happens automatically when you first comprehend a Concept, after which you have to manually recreate it. Once you have condensed a personal concept in such a manner, you can build your magic systems around your personal concepts instead. This way, nobody having control over a concept used in your magic system will be able to affect it. It also means even if you were transported to a world different from the world in which you created your magic system, you would still be able to use it.

  • The true foundation of any magic system is the mages who use them. As such, the more people use your magic system, the stronger the system becomes. Have enough people using your magic system, and even a Lumos will shine as bright as the sun.

  • The number of your magic users in a given world will also determine how much the world suppresses your magic system. The weaker a world is supernaturally, the more it suppresses the introduction of a new magic system. For instance, in worlds like DC Comics or Marvel, the introduction of new magic systems will face minimal to no suppression, whereas in a mundane world, a magic system at the level of Harry Potter magic will be 10% as strong and one at the level of Warhammer 40K Psykers will be 0.001% strong. The more people in a world that become users of your magic system, the less the world will suppress it. By the time more than half the population practice your magic system, there won't be any suppression at all.
