Essence of theSeptima (Azure Striker Gunvolt)

By drinking this wonderfully azure Essence (that makes your hairs stand on end), you become a form of psychic: an Adept.

• As an Adept, you are uniquely tuned to a field of energy called the Lifewave, granting you psychic powers worthy of the next stage of evolution. You cannot be separated from the Lifewave unless you wish to, and can reconnect and maintain your connection wherever and whenever you want/are.

• Your particular Septima, currently nameless, allows you to take on the abilities of other Adepts as if their powers were your own, and develop them limitlessly. This also extends to other psychic-based abilities, should you encounter them. You can use these abilities whenever or wherever you wish without issue, and any abilities that affect Adepts will also work just as well on other super powered beings.

• Your Septima already has the various powers of the Adepts (and similar beings) who have appeared in Azure Striker Gunvolt or it’s affiliated media, such as Resurrection, Psychokinesis, Phantasm Mirror, Radiant Fetters, Astral Order, and even the titular Azure Striker.

• Through your Septima, you can use EX Skills: specialized and powerful techniques that can can perform incredible things beyond what a Septima is usually capable of. EX Skills are somewhat akin to magic spells, requiring an invocation and focus to activate, but you can eventually activate them whenever and however you wish.

• Your natural intelligence and mental abilities (memory, problem solving, thinking speeds, etc.) skyrocket, making you the superior of Copen or any Sumeragi, EDEN, Shadow Yakumo, or Worker scientist combined, without any drawbacks from such mighty intellect (like reduced empathy or a “lack of humanity”.

• You gain the knowledge and skill of technology, science, and borderline magic that can be used alongside your Septima. Glaives, Grimoires, Binding Brands, Workers, and any of the technology used by Copen, Sumeragi, EDEN, Shadow Yakumo, and the Mother Computer are just some of the things you now have access to.

• Your creativity and intuition has been enhanced as well, allowing you to easily find new ways to use your knowledge and powers.

• Additionally, your Septima have the ability to evolve beyond what they are, transforming you into a Primal Dragon - a being whose powers far exceed even Septima. Becoming a Primal Dragon allows you to take on the form of a dragon (or one with draconic traits, and the ability to shift back into your normal form from either form), and allows you to emit Dragon Radiation (fully under your control), which can turn Adepts (or other super powered beings) into Primal Dragons, who are fully loyal and devoted to you. You may also use this radiation to turn other people into Adepts, granting them a random Septima and making them fully loyal and devoted to you. Becoming a Primal Dragon also gives you a sort of ageless immortality, though you can switch this off and on at any time you wish (and can freely switch between any age you have been).

• Eventually, your Septima will reach a level beyond even that: the power of Octima. No one knows what this power brings, or if it is the last stage of Lifewave power. The only example seen thus far has been Moebius, who had dominion over fate and probability. Who knows what you would be capable of at this level….

• You have full command of your Septima/Octima and it’s various properties (strength, lethality, etc.) at all times, even while you’re sleeping or otherwise unawares. Even if your powers are sealed, stolen, controlled, or otherwise “inaccessible”, you will be able to reclaim and use them at any time you wish. Moreover, your powers cannot harm or act against you unless you allow it.

• You have full knowledge on all of the best ways of using your powers, intellect, and knowledge.

• Part of gaining your Septima is that your body has been reformed in the appearance and shape that you like, at the peak of health and ability.

• Your charisma and social intuition has been dramatically enhanced, allowing you to always know what’s going on with people and how best to interact with them. This can easily be used to start and maintain romantic relationships and the like, bypassing many of the pitfalls that may plague a relationship, like misunderstandings or jealousy.

• You have indomitable willpower, emotional stability, and mental strength, and can keep your sanity and fortitude even after an eternity of torment and agony.

• You cannot be controlled, driven berserk, or otherwise manipulated by anyone through any supernatural means unless you wish it. This also frees you from the dangers of having your timeline rewritten, being a slave to fate, and far more.

• If someone perishes near you, you can take their soul into yourself as a vessel, fusing them with you and allowing you to use their powers alongside your own (while still keeping your minds and spirits separate, should you wish).

• If you somehow die, no matter the cause or how “thorough” the death (soul destruction, existence erasure, etc.), you can trigger Anthem, an empowered state that will fully revive and heal you (as a fiat-backed perfect resurrection), and will enhance your powers beyond their limits temporarily.

• You become a total master of replicating superpowers, no matter their source or nature, in a technological or scientific form. With just a bit of study, you can replicate even godlike powers, provided you have the resources to actually build a device capable of channeling them.

• You possess a Lola-type AI (or even Lola herself), who is completely loyal and devoted to you. This AI (encased in a small sphere-like drone with several sub-drones), has immense data and informational manipulation abilities, and can be programmed with data on supernatural powers (which it can then replicate through the sub-drones). The AI also has various databanks from the Mother Computer, including terraforming, advanced technologies, warfare, and other topics. You can also upgrade this AI with any technology you find, and will be able to flawlessly integrate it with no negative side-effects. Even if this AI is somehow destroyed, it will “respawn”, good as new (fiat backed to be the exact same one, should you wish). (If you take Lola in the companion choices below, these will apply to her, and you can take a second AI with the same abilities.)

• You may choose to receive any of the following people as companions. You can pick as many as you want. You can also share parts of your Essence powers with them. The relationship between you and them is whatever you want it to be, and you can choose exactly how romantically and sexually experienced they are (and what their fetishes are). This can be different for each of the characters but they will all be irrevocably loyal and devoted to you:

  • Lumen/Joule.

  • Mytyl.

  • Lola.

  • Kirin.

  • Null.

  • Blade.

  • Kohaku.

  • Nori.

  • Gibril.

  • Elise.

  • Zonda.

  • Any other resident of the Gunvolt/Luminous Avenger iX universes (even crossover characters).

• Optionally, you may, at any time, choose to take a one way trip into the world of Azure Striker Gunvolt/Luminous Avenger iX, or a variation of it. This can be any alternate universe, like a fanfic or one made perfectly for yourself. You can either simply be dropped in or reincarnated into the body of an existing character or someone new.
