Description
By drinking this bottle of divine light, you have been augmented to your fullest divine potential.
Effects
6Your body is reforged into a divinely-inspired work of art, developed by a team of angels and divine servitors that worked to create something in line with your tastes, desires and idealized vision, as well as one that represents the holy eminence that you are, even through the metatextual meaning that drips into the minds of those who look at you. This is known as your Forma, one of the most obvious tools of your divine might, which radiates a sense of awe and a need to worship or believe, whether at your altar or what you preach.
You are more than just a priest, but a divine warrior that has access to Fortitudo, an empowering force that allow you to smite those who would oppose your crusade. This grants you varying levels of strength, but it grows stronger as you act virtuously, justly and honestly while acting against those who sin, commit injustice and engage in deception. Against the average human, who has done good and bad things, you would still find enough strength to literally tear them limb from limb with speed to do so in a blink of an eye, and it only scales up from there. Against a serial killer, you would be capable of simply touching them and burning them from the inside out with divine light. This must be true sin not that of arbitrary dietary restriction or prejudice, because while you may easily punish those who rape, you will not find additional strength in fighting those who have sex with many consensually (unless they break their hearts) or love those of the same gender.
You are a living lie detector capable of detecting corruption and deception wherever it lies, and know the truth instantly, but more than that, your Veritas allows you to force those who would omit or deceive to act with honor and speak honestly. Even if you were watching from a television, as long as if it was a live broadcast, you could force those speaking to tell the most relevant and important truth in that situation (unable to simply not speak or ramble about something irrelevant but true). More than that, your presence acts as a general ward against dishonorable actions, with any organization that you are a part of reducing its corruption to absolutely zero, with only the most outward of fringes being able to have any sort of corruption. Moreover, those who would oppose you must act with honor and honesty, with betrayal and subterfuge unable to hold against your gaze.
You act in the name of that which is good and orderly, giving you the benefits of Justitia, allowing you to detect sin and injustice wherever it is done, as well as know the instant moral calculus of any action and system. This is more than just the base crimes of theft and murder, but that of corrupt politicians, ruthless business and tyranny. From the moment you know just a name or even a rumor of a society, you will be able to tell what its biggest problems are as well as how to solve them. If you actually interact with it in any meaningful way, you know its biggest offenders and how they may be brought down, as well as the structures that they weave around themselves like armor. But you aren't just limited to knowing it, as every action you take snowballs into something bigger and better, while even the general direction of society takes a just shape.
You hold a deep compassion for everything, but this compassion does the opposite of blinding you, and instead enlightens you to a greater purpose of Humanitas. You are intimately attuned to the gestalt consciousness of humanity, capable of seeing how people will act, but moreover knowing intimately its pains and joys wherever they may be. You will know how to alleviate those pains with your divine healing and forgiveness, capable of bringing back those who wish to come back to the flock with kindness in your heart. This will set them on a path of righteousness, changing their ways from evil and chaos to that of good and order.
Finally, you are the favored of any divine entity, even those who would normally never take champions, with your gift of Precatio granting you their love, adoration and care. They will certainly bless you and gift you divine artifacts, which will be able to take on a far greater height than any before them, even if they are only from a small god. They will also not hold to the typical prejudices they may have, for even an elven or dwarven god can love a human champion like you. If you act in their name and truly do them justice, you will find that their faith in you shall skyrocket, granting you powers that they could never have normally granted you whether due to restrictions, limits or rules.
