Master Comment │ Barely acceptable level-ups lessen the burden. Step up the game... if you have sufficient bioenergy, hehe~.

Now the talents (unchanged):

[Schizophrenic ⭐]

Ain’t the most trustworthy or welcome out there. Alas, depraved men ain’t choosers. Currently split between an untrusting genius psychopath and a noncommunicative butcher, both equally bonkers. You avoid common sense like mice avoid cats. Keep an eye out for twitching eyelids, enemies!

Assigns the status of the medium.

Comment │ Ain’t that lovely, peach? A damn personality to undiscover!

[Survivalist ⭐]

An expert at survival, a cockroach closer to the natural order than your own blood kin. Although deprived of safety and love, Mother Nature never abandons the worthy. In nature, there is protection. Most traps are useless against you.

Allows a clearer understanding of what is of the Great Mother’s making.

Comment │ Nature’s been a bitch since forever, I tell you. Always protective of the lunatics...

[Destiny’s Contractor ⭐]

A bug. An agent. A scourge. An emperor. The Old Order looks the other way, in the face of all your evil. Feared for good reasons, your power of contract extends beyond causality. Because of its double-edged nature, it demands the ultimate wager: An eternal bond.

Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there.

Permits unilateral contracting at your discretion.

Comment │ Yes, yes–––enslave an ancestral dragon and end the world, you big bad bug!

[Gluttony ⭐]

In search of limitless power, your existence is driven by dark powers. An inferno rages in your blood, in your very core. To consume, to ravish, to make your own what was never meant for you. Your contracts pay tribute to your awe, whereas the consumed may become part of you.

Ensures evolutionary paths aligned to chaos.

Caution: Instable. Uncontrollable. Mutation Possible.

Comment │ Consume the world, and my unfulfilling task will finally end!

And here the skill(s):

[Folly-a-Boo] Passive Level 2

The most spectacularly useless skill of a Trioptic Speedster, an unneeded addition you could’ve done just fine without–––or so it should’ve been. Genetic incompatibility met contradictory indications, resulting in untold characteristics. Manipulates the soul. Useless against mentally strong targets. Ineffective against certain species. During active mode, huge amounts of energy are consumed as you tear through the veiled layers of reality, changing the fundamental structure.

Caution: Unstable. Barely Controllable. Enemy Of Light. Further Mutation Certain.

Level-Up Requirement │ Bioenergy (170)

Comment │

Why does shit turn to black gold in your hands? Hahaha, pun intended you freak. Hide away your unholy peepers or heed the calling of moon-graced nights.

Comment │ Sombody send me a translator!! Archaic and modern don’t match!!!!!

[Stinky Fingers] Level 2

The prized evolution of one-armed Lesser Alpine Water Monkeys. As per popular ape lore, hurting the shiny ass cheeks summons the fury of the suns, smithing down the brainless offenders. Your hands have disregarded every aspect of human anatomy. For each finger, you get to choose your preferred number of joints up to a total of seven. High energy consumption when enacting the change.

Level-Up Requirement │ Bioenergy (297)

Comment │ The best a lesser species has to offer. Very curious choice.

[Bloodoscope] Level 2

Adult Lesser Otyughs naturally learn this skill in the course of their long lives. A severely downgraded version of the forefather’s priced abilities. Utilise your blood’s innate clairvoyance to uncover the most likely future outcome of your inquiry. Depending on how much prophetic interference there is, the kind, intensity, amount of information, angle of observation, of feedback varies. Low energy consumption. Currently applicable thrice a day.

Level-Up Requirement │ Bioenergy (350)

Comment │ The best a lesser species has to offer. Ain’t no safe choice–––who would’ve thought you’d choose it?

[Hivemind] Level 2

Communication exists beyond plain words, exchange beyond the concept of structure and information that is not limited by rational reasoning. With the State’s development, what was once linear has become multidimensional. Beware, individuality diverges from collectivity. Your involvement has deepened dramatically. Less psychic energy consumption when addressing node(s).

Caution: Potentially Stressful. Perpetual.

Level-Up Requirement │ Bioenergy (497)

Comment │ Shared joy, shared burden–––pray the State never falls!

[Apocalyptic Hide Of The Devourer] Level 1

The analysis of (?)’s genetic structure ushers your skin on the road to Indestructible (?), a gargantuan leap ahead in evolution. Every ecdysis regenerates your flesh, adapts, and renews your skin. As it is infused with bioenergy, it retains its flexibility while becoming especially hard. Medium energy consumption while active.

Level-Up Requirement │ Bioenergy (200)

Comment │ Shit happens. You turning into a snakeman is just a foretaste.
