AI summary
A His Dark Materials Essence letting you remake your body and choose to be a human who can see their dæmon — with its form, name, appearance and personality yours to set — or the dæmon itself. Your bond is unusually robust: you can separate across vast distances without danger to either of you and nothing can sever the connection, your dæmon retains fluid shapeshifting even after maturity rather than settling into one form, and you may optionally collapse the usual distinction so that you and your dæmon are not two individuals with separate opinions and often opposite genders — or alternatively you may be a witch, ageing slowly and living for thousands of years even as a male since you simply come from outside Lyra's world; a panserbjørn, an armoured, speaking, thumb-bearing giant polar bear; a mulefa with wheel-pod and tree, in either book or television form; or an angel, a collection of sentient Dust in humanoid shape with all the setting's angelic abilities. You may also take an alethiometer you can always read correctly, and the Æsahættr, the subtle knife whose one edge cuts through the fabric between worlds to open passages.

Effects
17You may remake your body.
Human/Daemon: You may choose to be a human who is capable of seeing their Daemon (spirit), you may choose your Daemon’s form, name, appearance, personality, etc. Optionally, you may choose to be a Daemon who has a human that can see them, you can choose your form and appearance as well as design your human (name, appearance, personality, etc).
Distance: You and your other half are capable of traveling vast distances without danger or threat to one another’s life, emotions, and mental state nothing could break/severe your connection. The Daemon half will also be capable of becoming invisible and entering the body of their human half should they want.
Fluid Nature: Normally a Daemon would settle on a single form once they and their human had matured, and yet the Daemon in your bond even matured will still be capable of fluidly changing form including; mixing traits from different animals (an owl with duck feathers), becoming imaginary creatures (dragons, gargoyles, mammoths, etc.), taking multiple forms (Diania’s Daemon took the form of multiple butterflies), and human/humanoid forms (mermaid, human, harpy, etc.).
Same: A Daemon and their other half are two unique individuals with their own opinions, feelings and often a being of the opposite gender while still existing as one half of the same whole. You may remove this individuality and completely exist as both halves. This can be used on future relationships that would have a piece of you/your soul manifest as its own thing like Bleach zanpakutō spirits.
Witch: Optionally, you may be a witch from this setting, even if male you just don’t originate from Lyra’s world. As a witch you will age slower than humans, and can live for thousands of years, you will be unaffected by the cold, can feel starlight as a tingly sensation and moonlight as silk on your skin, fly with or without the use of cloud-pine, and all powers and abilities held by witches even those not listed.
