Essence of thePlot-Armoured Protagonist

By drinking this heroic-tasting Essence from a heroic-tasting bottle, you are filled with totally earned power that you totally deserve.

• Your potential is now limitless. So long as you try to improve, you will improve (though not necessarily quickly). You can learn any ability you encounter, even contradictory ones, or ones you should be incapable of. You will also never forget them, or have your skills degrade or 'get rusty over time', no matter how many you learn.

• Any other Essences you have taken will develop and improve in ways beyond their initial purposes.

• You are immune to precognition, becoming a 'blind spot' to it and all other forms of divination, future-reading, future-sight, fate reading, or any other such information-gathering effects. You can control if this has you simply invisible to these powers, or if false information of a future with a mundane you exists is fed to them.

• You are immune to mind control and all other forms of mind-alteration or mind-reading effects. You can dial these effects down or let things through, but attempts to circumvent this protection will find the protection snapping back to fully on.

• You are immune to exotic and esoteric bullshit. To the degree that you're guaranteed to survive anything short of an active direct attempt on your life by someone coming to kill you personally. And frankly just the attempt to kill you off subtly will more than likely result in you coming back stronger from the attempt.

• Attempts to rewrite your reality will just have you remembering the 'real' world and slowly unravel with your presence.

• Attempts to suppress, copy, remove, or otherwise affect your abilities are doomed to failure.

• Attempts to harm your 'past' or 'future' selves will never come to pass.

• Attempts to poison you will have the poisoned drink spill, be found, or you'll just flat-out inexplicably survive, probably with some insights or benefits from it.

• You can see, interact with, and speak to things that would drive men mad from the mere presence of them without being harmed.

• You can choose to ignore memetic hazards and instead interact with them normally, with your mind throwing off the strange effects effortlessly.

• Any other form of 'scry-and-die' or '1-hit-kill' effects are something that just flat-out cannot effect you.

• You have an incredible degree of willpower, and a good sense for bullshit.

• The only way to truly kill you is for someone to actually show up, and make the attempt in person. This Essence makes it so that your enemies have a higher chance to kill you by just running up and stabbing you than they do via reality warping, time travel, poison, or other esoteric conceptual bullshit.
