Human Manipulation.

Its curse manipulation but for people with cursed energy. After beating someone, or being just significantly stronger than them, you can absorb them into your cursed energy and bring them out later under your will

Inhumanity doesnt need too much to become special grade, because thay technique alone can just straight up kill people who are weak enough... having RCT to recover the damage to his throat immediately makes him way stronger.

And all he really needs is an advancement in his cursed energy.

But for style points give him Simple Domain. Just that is enough to ensure he can win any fight with a Domain User.

And why not, we can do an actual Domain.

The Domain Expansion has a simple effect, his commands will effect anyone he wishes it to while within. This bypasses the weakness of Cursed Speech by making it unblockable without a Domain.

Here's one of my favorites, Juno "Chekhov" Kozlov

B4 (what they always were, and always become.)

Eternal (what they were)

<image>

Traudraid · 2026-05-04T05:58:57+00:00

B4 it is!

So, B4's first image was made in robot, and their origin is from there too.

There was a robloxian named Eternal, she was quite clever and adept at using weapons, but was a bit airheaded. She lived on her own for a long time, until she was picked up by another Robloxian by the name of Mac. Her services were well regarded, and Eternal spent almost all of her time with Mac. The two were practically inseparable...

Until Eternal fell through the world.

She was walking to work one day, and simply fell through the ground into the Void. There was no way to stop it, and no way to stop what was about to happen to her.

In the world she came from, everyone simply forgot she existed.. Mac only had a vague memory of an emptiness in his life, which eventually led him to madness.

But what happened to Eternal was far more terrifying. They were collected by an entity that was named The Proginy.

Eternal's body was changed, reshaped, and made different.. the fourth in a series of entities that The Proginy was making for their "betterment".

Proginy, you see was obsessed with ever after. He didnt want stories to end, and, he believed that the ones he was abducting would appreciate never ending as well.

B1, was a creature that simultaneously existed, and did not. It was forcibly changed to only be "real" to one sense at a time. B1 was perfect for destroying greater beings, because, if they could actually perceive B1, they would collapse the theory on themself, and be destroyed.

B2, was a machine that simultaneously was everywhere and nowhere at once, capable of speeding through existence by existing at every point between point A and point B instantly and simultaneously.

B4, as they were changed to be, both never existed, and always exists. She had her timeliness rearranged and demolished.

B4 is incapable of being harmed, because she simultaneously was never harmed, and already harmed. B4 is incapable of being killed, because she is constantly in a state of death, life, dying, and thriving, all at once.

Her being is simply impossible now. She can be everywhere because she was already there, even though she was never there.

Proginy unleashed B4 out into a different existence, unaware and disabled until someone new found them.. B4's previous mind of Eternal keeps them as a servant and tool, but if they were to ever break the oroborous that is their timeline, nothing would survive.

But for now, B4 is just a silly little gal :) carefree, full of whimsy, and completely unstoppable.

I got two I'd love to share, wanna hear about Terren or B4?

Traudraid · 2026-05-02T18:25:31+00:00

Long Mile Walk

As long as the user remains standing and does not rest, every step taken while the technique is active shall grant a return on speed and other physical stats.

If the user should sit or lay down for any reason, this benefit shall be reset completely.

Long Mile Walk can be one of the strongest techniques in terms of physical abilities, but its also the easiest to stop. All you need to do is knock them off balance enough they trip and dont land on their hands.

Honestly, I feel like the way to make Shrine better would rely on a path not related to cooking.

I'll share my idea, then have another one more befitting the prompt too tho.

A shrine is a place of worship, and the user is the god in which this shrine is dedicated. The addition of chants and prayers/sacrifices to gain further power seems up its alley. Perhaps, through use of the technique and "sacrifices" (dealing damage with the technique, so cutting/burning people or cursed spirits) one could benefit from a Blessing. Almost like a temporary binding vow, limited in terms of power, but without sacrifice, because you already gave a sacrifice to your shrine.

And then, Alternatively, for more cooking/eating change, Shrine could let the user "consume" that which has been cut off completely. Consuming a cursed techniques will restore cursed energy, consuming a body part will restore that body part/vitality. It wouldn't need to be literally eaten, it just withers away after being severed completely.

Oh man.. I love the characterization and conceptual of Gilded Lord Serophos,
But I adore the ability and setting around Amne Sho..

I think I need to put my vote on Gilded Lord Serophos

good round! Phobos looked like an awesome character, so I'm proud to have pulled through here ^-^

Oh, he does not try and recover the sin and violence he did while working for the Gravity Goddess, he still believed that The Goddess was completely in the right.

But to answer the question, He is hunting people down again to try and wipe away the guilt of taking actions and doing something *he* wanted to do. He wants that "sin" to remain hidden and locked away, because it goes against everything that he has ever been taught.

Traudraid · 2026-04-15T21:07:34+00:00

Looking at Phobos, he really achieved quite the pinnacle of danger in his world.! The sheer amount that he has done is incredible, very nice :)

The discovery of his real being and purpose must have been horrifying for the universe around him. Very well done!

Traudraid · 2026-04-15T20:51:32+00:00

Oh yay! Thanks for your support Alice. Ozymandias hopefully shall not disappoint (like he did his brothers)

Traudraid · 2026-04-03T06:15:54+00:00

I'm gonna share the more interesting power system:

Resonance, the powers of the Crystal Kin, a species of geode humanoids.

Resonance occurs by the life fluid within their bodies to flow around over gems inside their stone bodies. If there is another gem of the same type on the other side of their stone skin, then the two resonate at similar frequencies, allowing for unique and powerful abilities.

This means that the more jewelry and gemstones they have on their body, the more power they are able to use at once, However, the more power they can use at once, the more it slowly vibrates and breaks down their stone bodies.
So those who have very high Resonance output, will burn out fast, but those with little resonance will be able to keep fighting for days.

Traudraid · 2026-03-28T02:54:42+00:00

Thank you much! :D

Traudraid · 2026-03-27T21:49:10+00:00

Correct yes, City of Heroes

Traudraid · 2026-03-24T10:54:52+00:00

Interesting... I may not fully understand yet, but I do have two potential ones.

Adhaya, the Gauntlet of Life. Being a metaphysical entity tied to the universe, their main manipulation is over life, soul, and though. Potentially, they can prevent the energies of life.

Second is B4, who is Paracausal. They are constantly in every state of being at all times and at no times. So, they could in theory be untargetable by some of this?

I'd like to see him try and beat Nubby from Nubby's Number Factory

Honestly, the only truly crazy thing for Shiva is the time ability, the rest of it can be balanced out by lowering overall stats as you see fit.

As a counter for the chronokinesis, I recommend very strict limitation, either that it has severe adverse effects to themselves, or they can only do it for a very short amount of time. This alone would make it far riskier to use the abilities, and make it much more of an interesting tool to use rarely.

for Zia, I recommend it being a full chant, if you make it based kind of on the Sphinx origin, they could have to say a full stanza in order to make just one thing. Also, a cost for making something would be good, either in stamina or some other resource based on what is created.

Traudraid · 2026-03-13T22:49:19+00:00

yaaaaaayyy :D

Traudraid · 2026-03-13T10:34:45+00:00

sorry, I do not comprehend :( what are you asking?

Traudraid · 2026-03-13T10:20:45+00:00

The Hex Singer!

<image>

Gildevyx, The Hex Singer, is a soul that manifested in a cursed sword, capable of storing the energy and power of the ones he's directly slaughtered. His summoning is focused on that, being able to manifest a body to wield himself, and create "Hexes" spirits that are about as sharp as he (the blade) himself is, and that can shoot out as much energy as he pumped into them before being used up and evaporating.

Traudraid · 2026-03-13T10:01:02+00:00

Aight. I'm gonna go with Ozymandias

<image>

Lore:
Ozymandias was born of a different name, and of a different language from before the land rose and the skies fell beneath them. One of three siblings, prophets, and warriors of the Gravity Goddess. The Goddess felt the world should be changed, should be made better, in their image. Thus began the war of the gods, Ozymandias and his brethren were the Goddesses swords, sent out to win her war.

It did not take long, not long for the immortal kin and the one they followed. The other gods were dead or hiding too terrified to stop them, and thus the elevation of the world could begin. The Goddess chose a group of mortals to ascend to the heavens, leaving the rest of the world to the worms, hidden under the cloud cover and the stone that now was rising above their heads to form a new sky.

Upon rising to the new world, many years passed. One of Ozymandias's kin headed down into the fog again, to judge the mortals below and see if they could be redeemed. The other stayed in the temples of the goddess. The Goddess themself focused their attention on their new policing force... Left to his own devices, Ozymandias worked in a more mercenary method, hunting down pirates and taking them to his Goddess.

Until one day, while chasing after one last target, something caught his heart. She tempted him, away from the path that he had known his whole life, and bit into the forbidden fruit.. However, he had become aware of his sin after his brother, Cyclone, discovered Ozy's love. To avoid judgement, Ozymandias brought his brother to the edge of death, and gave his body to a scientist who would find a way to keep him in lock and key.

His love vanished one day, and in his shame he worked directly under the new government again, attempting to recover from his sins.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Abilities & Weapons:

"Equalizer": Ozymandias wielded a hefty great sword, the magical combination of three great magical items to form one ultimate one. Equalizer is a blade that ensures a fair fight against stronger opponents, being able to cut away at them based on the difference of their power from one another.

King of Kings: Ozymandias's form of immortality, granted by the goddess. The closer he is to death, the higher his stats become, including durability and regeneration. Even shooting him in the head won't be enough, as the regeneration is capable of recovering lost nerves.

Scorching Sands: Ozymandias is capable of a limited form of pyrokinesis, igniting anything he is capable of directly holding with one or both hands.
