AI summary

Unifies your body, mind and spirit under Lockstep Improvement, so training one improves all three: your mind stays focused until exhaustion and never forgets, your spirit supplies constant inspiration and a growing talent for anything you attempt, and your body borrows your spirit's refusal to age or die while it still has energy and your mind's speed and control. You gain Hero's Call, standing up for those you love, and an Aura of Maintenance that makes one thorough job of upkeep last indefinitely. You are also a Precognitive Sniper with near-supernatural eyesight and combat foresight, a Faceless Trooper who becomes harder to pick out the further away the observer, and a Recon Jack who adapts supernaturally to any environment and opens an undetectable mental channel to anyone teaching you, absorbing lessons at an absurd rate.

Description

A potion bottle filled with a liquid that seems to be a mix of all the nations' soldier's camouflage patterns blended together, with streaks of purple flashing like lightning on a stormy weather, it tastes like a hearty meal after a good workout.

Effects

12
  • Lockstep Improvement: The mind commands the body, while spirit commands all! Just as the saying goes your body, mind, and soul are one. The improvements in one will reflect in the others. An hour's push-ups strengthening every muscle in your body equally rather than just your arms, while also improving your spirit and mind. Same is also true for an hour of complex Sudoku solving or an hour long engaging philosophical debate, or even watching an intense football match. All of which will improve you, and not just that any magical or similar energies you gain access to will also be locked into this lockstep improvement. Besides that this combination has also resulted in some boons. At the bare minimum you are capable of 3 times more than what you should be capable of normally, from how high you can jump to how much you can lift to how much punishment you can take.

  • Additionally your mind will be as solid as your body, not losing focus until you are utterly exhausted, and as eternal as your spirit, never forgetting a thing.

  • Your spirit will be as constant as your body, filling you with inspiration and passion, and as fluid as your mind, granting you a slowly growing talent for any task you set yourself upon.

  • Finally your body will share your spirit's immortality, refusing to grow older or die until utterly spent of all energy, and your mind's speed and control, granting you a far enhanced perception speed and body control. However because of this unity, while all the damage you receive gets divided into 3, the divided parts are delivered to rest of your being.

  • Hero's Call: A soldier fights not because he hates whoever is in front of him, but because he loves those behind him… You are a hero, and a hero is someone who stands up for those he loves, stands up for what he believes in. Even if you are a believer of might makes right mentality you will find your presence drawing people you could love towards you. Not all of them will be weak, not all will be the opposite gender, there will be friends, crazy aunts, weird animals, and even cute children whose antics you can't help but smile at. And when those you care about need a hero you will hear the call, and will be faced with a choice. You can either ignore it or rush to become their hero. When the hero's call comes you will know the direction to go to, the person in danger, and have a feel for whatever tool you need to solve the problem. Not always the danger will be physical, maybe they broke up with their lovers, and need you as a shoulder to cry on. Or maybe they got lost in the mall. Or maybe they really are about to get stabbed and need you to smack their attacker black and blue with a baseball bat.

  • Aura of Maintenance: A good soldier maintains their health, hygiene, appearance, and equipment! Now you are such a good soldier that you only need to do maintenance once, and do it good so you never have to do it again. Any actions that could be considered as maintenance of your health, hygiene, or equipment now only needs to be done at most a few times before the maintenance begins maintaining itself. Style your hair a few times and your hair won't grow any longer and naturally return to your chosen style, wash your face a few times and crust will stop forming on your eyes, same with every other part of your body, do a thorough job and you never need to do maintenance work on your hygiene or appearance. Any food, water, chemicals, or herbal medication(whether they be stimulant, narcotics, or antibiotics) you ingest will be conjured whenever needed, as if you had just ingested them, so you won't ever need to repeat anything to maintain your health more than a few times. Any items you maintain, such as sharpening a knife if you are a cook, will stay as sharp as ever. And lastly, this aura of maintenance will infuse into your surroundings at a diminished level, which makes your cars use up far less fuel than it should, food's remains never sticking to your pans, and your garden repulsing all bugs. From now on you will perform at your peak capability, whatever the subject may be.

  • Precognitive Sniper: You have perfect eyesight that borders on the supernatural, your sight has a level of clarity and acuity that only people with actual superpowers can compete. Also, you are a combat precognitive whose main focus is trajectories. By default this ability comes with a mental laser sights surrounded by small cones pointing towards where the projectiles are heading, and with the laser sights becoming redder and redder the closer to the time the projectile will pass through them. The projectiles of others, the explosion ranges of bombs, how many times a basketball will bounce, and which pins a thrown bowling ball will hit are all things you can see. The only way to prevent your predicted projectiles from striking their targets is through time, space, or similar greater manipulation powers, or disrupting your aim before you make the shot. Should a projectile you throw or shoot encounters resistance in mid air, such as hitting a forcefield or someone with super speed stopping it, then the laser sight will stop in mid air. By maintaining your position and focusing on a single trajectory like a proper sniper you can see far further in that trajectory's timeline than you can normally. You can sit still and concentrate on this power to train it, though doing so will make your sight red with all the possible trajectories you can see, while concentrating on this power a living being would be a ball of red light with all the movement options it has. You can make changes to how you perceive this ability.

  • Faceless Trooper: You are a face amongst the crowd, the further you are being observed from the harder it will be to pick you and your actions apart from the rest. An Omniscient being who sees all timelines at all times would be completely blind to any change you make to the timeline, as any ripple effect from your actions becomes more camouflaged the further you go. And any disturbances such a being finds will be dismissed as variations they had already foreseen, but if you appear directly in front of them then they can read your direct actions as easily as any other, though the greater ripples of your actions will be invisible to them still. This stealth ability also works on the lower levels too, though far weaker, by toggling your sneaking ability and adopting a natural expression you can make your face forgettable and make it a bit harder for people to focus on you. This stealth ability combined with your precognitive ability gives birth to a new ability which allows you to sense the direction of your observers. You can increase this ability's power through utilization, so keep on sneaking and practicing your poker face.

  • Recon Jack: To be a soldier is to adapt, but to be an elite soldier is to adapt, learn, and thrive. You are firmly of the latter branch.

  • First, like all soldiers you have the ability to adapt, however your capability to adapt is far higher, in the realm of the supernatural. Should you get dropped into the middle of the Sahara desert you will quickly find your skin darkening to avoid sun's harsh rays, your body releasing more sweat to regulate your temperature, and the longer you spend in subpar environments the better equipped to handle those places you'll get. This shift follows your desires, so if you'd prefer not to change you would still adapt but at a far slower rate, until eventually the subpar environment became as normal as an air conditioned home.

  • Second, whenever you decide to learn from someone an undetectable mental channel opens up between you that allows you to pick up whatever they teach at an insanely fast rate. You have the option to completely open the mental channel to let your teacher know what you are lacking in, and let them instinctively know how to best teach you, however this can only be done when there is absolute trust and loyalty between both parties, and cannot be manipulated or used to harm either party in any way. Once established the unique perspective they see through you might cause them to reflect deeper on their subject, and increase their own understanding to new heights. On the opposite end of the spectrum you can also pick an opponent to learn from, and you will learn as they display their skills in front of you, and as you spend time observing them you will be better able to predict their next move, however learning this way is comparatively slower than learning under a teacher. You can have multiple such connections.

  • Third, when you master a skill, adapt to somewhere, or learn something, it crystallizes into your being. Becoming a part of you that cannot be removed through time, disuse, or even changing bodies. If you learn how to play the guitar a thousand years ago then the next time you hold it will show the same level of skill as the last time you played it. If you learn how to whistle in one life then all your future reincarnations will be able to do so as well, however if they physically can't, maybe due to not having lips that allows them to whistle, then they will find their talent in a similar area rising to match your whistling skill in your previous lives.
