Essence ofGnosis

By imbibing in this essence that taste and feel like boundless knowledge and pure insight you gain the following boon:

• You gain the ability to perceive absolutely everything, everywhere, everywhen, and everyhow at the exact same time and regardless of where or when it is or might be. Your perception extend to locations outside of the whole of existence, into dimensions and planes shielding against every form of observation and perception. You can perceive the lives and connections that tie together anything/everything and the thoughts and dreams of every creature/entity/demon/god or eldritch horror that exists or doesn't exist. You’re even capable of perceiving out into the boundless emptiness and nonexistence where isolated and locked entities dwell. All that is, isn't, might, might not, could, could not, can, can't and won't exist is visible and laid bare before you, and nothing can be hidden from your perception. Of course this describes the ability at its utmost potential, you’re more than capable of toning it up and down as you please, or just turn it off and then back on again later.

• You are not limited to just perceiving, as you have the ability to impose any effect you are capable of causing onto any target, be they a person, a place, or a thing that you are able to perceive. You also have the power to selectively alter the past of a target (whether living, object, place, etc.) and determine when, where, what, how, or even why something happened in the past. Not only that, you’re even able to outright choose between all the possible futures that lies before you, rewriting the future as you please to best suit your goals. And due to how it trivializes causality, it can easily circumvent any defensive measures your opponents take, even going as far as to rewrite fate itself. Only those who has broken free from the chains of fate and has transcended causality can truly remain unaffected by this ability’s causal and temporal alterations. As a byproduct, this ability grants you immunity to all causal and temporal alteration that may effect you without your permission.

• You can gain any information about a person, object, place, skillset, ability, or event through intrinsic knowledge, as in it just "comes to" your mind. The power itself is truly Omniscient, able to accurately provide answers to any question you may have for it, but you yourself are not. Q&A sessions, in which you must first ask questions, is always required in order for you to gain answers. Alternatively, there is also a search engine function that allows you to look up information on any topic that holds your interest.

• If you wish, this ability can come with an assistant conceptual intelligence with absolute loyalty to you. This conceptual intelligence will possess limitless processing power and comprehension, perfect memory with infinite storage space, and will mainly assist in the gathering, organizing, and relaying of information. To that end, the conceptual intelligence has access to all other boon granted by this essence, but requires your permission to access any perks, powers, or boons granted by other Essences, CYOAs, or Jumpchains, etc. The conceptual intelligence is tied to your very being in such a way that no power can separate it from you or cut you off from it regardless how omnipotent they are. The conceptual intelligence can be your alter ego rather than a separate entity who’s personality and interest aligns with yours, or a companion who’s personality and interest complements your own, in which case the nature of your relationship with your assistant conceptual intelligence can be anything you desire (a friend, a sibling, a lover, a mentor, or a parental figure, etc.).

• If you find yourself facing something (ex: subject, energy, discipline, force, object, concept, ability etc.) that you have not seen or have no knowledge of, it takes just a little exposure before you are able to "understand" and “comprehend” it down to the most minute detail.
