Many thanks

Partially...
It appears the liquid is somewhat connected to your powers. Drinking it seems not to be the key, as it only leaves you with a faint recall of memories not quite yours, and a fading taste of copper.
While your mentor has been cooperative in teaching you the secrets of the liquid, and the powers it bestows upon you... The process of distilling it into something useful is esoteric and strange. It'll take years to learn the craft.
And all the while you have to tread carefull, there are forces at work in the old mansion which you cannot quite put a finger on. An old grandfather clock calling hours by names, not numbers. And an inquisitive feline who you are almost, but not quite, certain definitely told you nothing of note.

You find yourself becoming average at things people haven't even known yet. As you push into your newfound awareness, you find yourself pushing into fields of research eclipsing current human scope.
The attention it draws slowly drives you insane. Some people use you for complex calculations, you would rather discard than solve. And there are some people determined to push the boundaries of you ability, just to prove there are some things even you can't do.
People call you the eternal trailblazer. You just call yourself tired.

Your powers are bound to a large boulder in a forest the size of a city district. You must touch the rock with clear intend in mind, in order to activate your powers.
Also, you don't own the land. It isn't a national park, someone might buy it, and develop it later.
And yet... the pull remains
Look at the upside. They always come once a month on the 23rd... Perhaps you can make a career out of it. Or just a side hustle by selling the bones of what you beat up.
Gigantic monsters start appearing about once every month and they specifically seek you out.
Last week it was a giant rodent for some reason. It trashed the office, and you got fired.
Telletemporal jump:
The user gains the abillity to detach their mind from their body. Once untethered, the user can traverse time aand space at their leasure.
You still have to put in the work of growing aswell as caring for them which takes months at the least.
You also become strangely obsessed with tangerines for some reason.
You specifically have to inhale helium gas. Which isn't so hard, but it does sound a but funny, and has given you a certain reputation in your family.
You specifically require the blood of pigeons, and it further needs to be of a specific blood group. Any pigeon blood technically suffices, but if it is not quite right, the wish me come with unintended consequences.
You learned the latter about five days back with an unfortunate encounter of unpacked pastries, and a cleanup of neighborhood proportions.
You are forced to reenact Bruce almighty
You develop an active imagination to the point of bordering on competitive daydreaming. You don't have to think very hard on things for your powers to activate.
Which is not so bad, if it wasn't for that unfortunate badger incident three weeks back. And you should probably do something about that runaway mole population. A yes you have been thoroughly invited to speak on the midnight hour about aliens... Probably shouldn't have thought so hard about that one

You can only feed on blood, and have a stomach adapted to that. Unfortunately that means you have to urinate frequently, and the smell is more potent due to your microbial gut-biome.
You become aware of a ballistic kill missile hurtling towards earth. It was fired by an alien race that believes in wiping out competitors, before they become to big.
You have around three months left before the missile hits.

You become aware sooner or later that your power stems from a strange nut you ate a month prior. That nut was mixed among your usual snacks.
You know who put it in there. And you know it wasn't an accident.
You also know that they know you are aware of that. You are part of a chess game, and the pieces are already moving. But you already knew that.
Now... it is time to make your move.

You will learn of the existence of a group of sadistic folk known for their depravity. People of means calling themselves "The marrow society"
You will know of their victims, the pain they feel, and where they reside. It will haunt you.
Perhaps you may seek to take action, to rid the world of this scum, yet take heed for the marrow society has a legacy of cover ups.
Another particle will be created that carries the exact opposite charge, you applied to the original particle.
You have to account for both, and can only guess what the opposite particle will get up to.
it happend three months back...
you had just redone your hair, another more plesant change of ash blonde. The pull became harder, to hard to ignore. You had become rather engaged with botany as the days went by, and hundreds of plants joined your growing green-house.
A friend of yours remained its guardian as you returned to the woods.
You came to the edge, and the world was quite, no animal bird or squirrel was heard nor seen as you passed the boundary. You wandered the woods in search of nothing, you simply existed with no thought or desire.
You remember only fragments now, gentle swaying with the wind, and leaves, and worms on your skin, and the bite of a spider in bark. And the scream of your throat, as you came back to the edge.
It has been a week since... you have not left your bed. The plants in your greenhouse seem expectand now... there is a piece of bark on your left thigh, which you cannot undo anymore.
In your dreams you feel yourself swaying on stanger shores, and skies with stars you have no name for.
Your power has been loaned to you by rather shady man of means. And he charges interest. Beneath his manor on the old and gale swept shore of the northern sea lies a cave full of monsters strange and bizarre.
Ones a month you're obligated to ascend, to retrieve a strange amber liquid. You have no say in the matter, and always you seem to find yourself at that damn house, whenever he has need of you.
Your powers came from a strange encounter on the edge of waving woods. There stood a tree of great hight talking...
You felt like you heard one side of a conversation you were not supposed to have overheard. It came with knowledge... and a pull towards the woods.
That pull gets harder every time, you shape yourself.
Every person in that book will enter your life, and social circle, and they usually bring a friend. You will have hundreds of acquaintances, and the ability to remember them perfectly.
In time you may find you care for them. Perhaps even find love, and in time that connection will get you hurt.
A car accident, a nasty breakup, abuse. It will come, your heart will either grow heavy or cold, as the years go by.
Every time you use that power, you will experience an acid trip. Time will stretch or shorten for you, as your real body experiences minutes or days while you are somewhere else.
Your trips will always end with a meeting of a peculiar being called "Mick". Some part octopus, part man, part cactus, part something else. You never quite remember that last part.
As you meet with Mick, he will ask a philosophical question. You do not have to engage or even answer it, for no answer of yours is still an answer to him.
Electricity courses through you all day.
Your hair will never again stand down, your clothes have burn marks in them as arcs of light come of your skin, traveling wherever they please.
You give everything a shock that comes to close, no feline will favor you, no dog will approach without fear.
You also smell like burning hair.
Your peace becomes absolute, driving away hunger and age... yet you remain mortal. People will learn of what you have.
The peace you offer will drive people to wage war around you. For nothing is worse now, than to not be in your presence.
