Essence of theTruth Speak

By drinking this Essence you get a rather simple but potent two fold power.

• Sense of Truth: When you open your mouth to make a statement you gain the power to know its trueness with perfect surety. Saying that the water is wet would get you a 100% 'trueness', while saying a zebra is black would give you zebra's colors.

• This 'trueness' is focused on your intent and perspective, if you have a misconception such as the word 'dark' meaning 'hot' to you, then saying 'the sun is dark' will give you a 100% truth.

• This sense focuses on your meanings rather than established facts, if you do not care about the exact degree of sun's surface then saying it is hot will not give you information you'd consider useless.

• Speaking of Truth: When you make a statement you also push for it to become true, regardless of their actual 'trueness'.

• This is the more complex part of the power as you need to defy the truth that your Sense of Truth gives. This can be done through simply repeating your statement enough, though that is the slowest way.

• You can argue your case, coming at the truth you wish to make real from multiple angles, which is the most efficient way to making your statements become the truth.

• Lastly you can be obstinate, put your willpower, belief, and stubbornness into your statements, absolutely refusing any truth but your own. This puts far more weight to your statements, as if on a scale, each statement with this sort of confidence behind them will be more effective against the established truth. If you put enough of them into a statement you might not need to repeat yourself.

• Refusing to lose in a street fight even if you are already black and blue, and you say 'I can do this all day', will give you a burst of energy equal to your defiance.

• Repeating to yourself that you are perfectly healthy after getting a burst of deadly radiation will allow you to survive, and repeat enough times and you will be even better than before.

• Stating that you memorized an entire book will spill more of the contents of the book with each repeat.

• Telling to yourself that playing video games increases your magical energy will slowly make that statement true, or saying that a normal rock can glow in the dark will give that rock a glow that grows stronger the more you repeat your statement.

• However the further from the truth your statements are, the more effort it will take to make them true. Also people actively opposing your idea of 'truth', for example a group of skeptics on a magic show, will lessen your statements' power. The more mentally and spiritually powerful, and perceptive, someone is, the more force you will need to put into your words to affect them without spending minutes describing what you want to happen. Certain statements' effect can erode over time, such as stating someone loves you but treating them badly might make them stop loving you.

• You have perfect control over this ability, so saying you are loyal to an organization you are infiltrating won't twist you to be loyal to them. Nor will you utilize it in ways that would result in your demise, your survival instinct will automatically shift how your Truth affects the world, or even directly stop your changes from taking to keep you alive. Similarly when doing any changes to yourself the instinctual protection will prevent you from causing personality death or similar.

• This Essence is only limited by your stubbornness in the face of truth, blind and deaf belief in whatever you spout, and your imagination.
