Effects
17You can recreate your body however you want. By default, it will be on the theoretical peak of your species. Typically, you can't be the best at everything. If you have peak strength, you need to sacrifice speed and vice-versa. But your body will be at the absolute peak in all ways possible (With the possible exception of anything you don't want) while looking just like you want.
Your physical potential becomes infinite: You can grow strong infinitely through training. Besides this, your body will never degrade. You'll age gracefully, without any weakness or disease, and will live as much as it's possible for your species — perhaps even more.
Your mind got massively enhanced in some aspects You know passively analyze your surroundings, instinctively using your environment and positioning for most effect. You possess instinctual knowledge on how break, destroy, or kill anything: This includes knowing all the weaknesses in someone's body, how to torture information out of someone, how to break someone's mind, or the best way to destroy a building. Besides this, you could make perfect plans to kill someone even if you had an IQ of two digits, seeing hundreds of millions of possibilities in a few moments, and being able to choose the perfect one.
You possess unbreakable willpower without making you any more inflexible than you are right now. Besides that, you can ignore negative emotions and feelings such as anxiety, fear, anger, guilt, or sadness. That doesn't mean you won't feel them, they just won't burden you.
You possess absolute mastery of "weapons": You can expertly use anything, from swords, guns, knives, or even improvised weapons such as shards of glass, pencils, or rocks. Your skill with anything that you can categorize as a 'weapon' is absolute peerless and perfect, as if refined to the utmost degree.
Your body itself is a weapon. You possess peerless close-quarter-combat skills, enough to easily kill or subdue even the most skilled of martial artists. This isn't born from any style or similar, but just pure combat logic. Your combat skills are completely formless, always adapting to your opponent's style, easily countering with the best possible move in any situation. Despite this, your opponents will never be able to predict your moves. They will not be able to counter you by just assuming you will always do the best possible move.
Your skill with guns is borderline supernatural. You can't miss, at all. At least not without purposely trying to. You can do stuff like curving your shots, ricocheting your bullets on walls (Or a coin, Ultrakill style), or perfectly hitting a target kilometers away. You don't even need to aim, your body will automatically adjust itself to always hit what you intended.
You possess updated skill and knowledge to break into any place. You won't have any knowledge such as layout or personnel (It's your job as a Hitman to get that), but you will always know how to perfectly break into any defensive system and will be able to perfectly put it into practice, no matter what they are (Physical, technological, magical, etc.)
You have internalized the working of a hitman. You know how to interact with both the underworld, and the government. You will always know how to make others know that you're taking requests, you'll know of potential clients, and you can easily navigate such environments. This knowledge will be updated every once in a while, and whenever you get into a new world, just so that you're never out of your depth.
You are a peerless master of chemistry and alchemy. You know to make every single chemical that exists in our world, as well as any that exists in any world you have been in, as well as dozens that are of your own make with varying effects. This knowledge will update every once in a while, and whenever you get into a new world.
Some killers prefer another approach. You are a master of seduction, always knowing exactly what to say and what to do to get into someone's pants (Or in a relationship in general). Besides this, you possess enough skill in the bed to blow the mind of essentially anyone compatible, to the point that you could break someone's mind if you really tried. You also possess control over your fertility via bio-feedback techniques.
You are a master actor. You can easily act in any role. Besides that, just by seeing someone for a few moments, you can perfectly mimic their mannerisms, personality, and voice. You are so convincing that you could pretend to be someone else even if you had the wrong body type.
You have the ability to make skin masks using just chemical products you could easily buy in a convenience store. You can perfectly shape them to look like anyone you want.
You are blessed by the Reaper. Anything you kill will stay dead, and you are always capable of killing your target. This can manifest in many ways such as you somehow getting your hands into a weapon that can damage your target, shenanigans happening to keep it dead, etc. Besides this, you possess the ability of sympathetic death — if you do enough damage to kill a normal human (i.e. destroying the brain) they will die, and if you kill the avatar of a greater being the source will die as well. Besides this, you can't damage the world by killing someone, for example, if you killed a deity that holds the worlds together the world would somehow still stay intact.
You are friends with The Merchant. He will always be near you, at most in the same city, and you will always know how to find him. He will sell you weapons — or anything you need, really — for a steal, without asking any questions. He accepts any valid currency, and even bartering. He may help you without any price if you really need it, for example, if you are somewhere without any money or goods.
You can hide your presence. Whenever you want, it's almost as if you merged with the world — You aren't invisible or anything like that, but it would just be as if you were part of the environment. It's less effective if your enemy knows you're there, but it will still work unless your opponent is extremely peerless or possesses extremely sharp senses.
Optionally, you might get inserted into any setting. You can choose if you are a Drop-In, an OC Insert, or a Self Insert.
