Essence ofPower Creep

Drinking this bright liquid with black inky swirls inside of it, you gain the following powers.

• Your being has been energized, imbuing the expanding power of fiction into you. Whatever your abilities, they will start to slowly increase with time, just like a story might be colored and embellished with each retelling.

• Should you start as a normal human, you will over time find your skills abilities and anything else about you or that which you possess increasing in power, and becoming more competent. Later you might spontaneously gain new skills and your form will approach that of a peak human. A mage would find his spells stronger, more potent, his knowledge increasing easier with effort and even while seemingly doing nothing.

• As power creep seems to be faster the stronger the character already is, so does this essence increase in speed. A peak human will find his powers crossing to myth, being able to do impossible things. You will get more and more powerful, eventually reaching comic book levels and beyond, developing or "discovering" new abilities. Like superman, who went from lifting cars to lifting planets, your powers will continue to evolve, and eventually after eons you will attain and surpass the greatest growth speeds in any fiction, whether by the characters of the overall power of the verse, spiraling ever upwards.
