Side Characters (Patreon)

This is just a quickfire for all of the powers and select physical traits of notable side characters.

Gaia: Supreme Deity

Omnipotence – Can do whatever she wants, including ignoring the alphabetical sorting of this list.

Ahanu: Chieftain of the Hidden Tradition

Innate Ability: Ancestor Connection – A highly specialized variety of necromancy where someone excels in communing and channelling the spirits of ancestors who agreed to have their souls bound to sacred burial sites. While near such burial sites, Ahanu’s level is deceptive of the power he can wield.

Alice: Florida’s pariah

Maiden of Null – Alice is the first Maiden of Null. She wields her pariah powers with extreme skill and can assassinate most mages in existence with ease.

Chemilia: Fusion’s strategy general

Innate Ability: Internal Pressure – Chemilia’s attacks and touch cause the pressure inside her targets to increase. If enough pressure mounts, this causes the insides to explode through whatever opening they can find. This trait, due to natural magic resistance, takes a bit to build up inside alive enemies. The end results of this are usually quite decisive…

Mechanical Limb – Chemilia’s right leg was almost entirely cut off by Sigmund, leaving only a stump below the hips. It has been replaced with a custom made piece by Scarlett, which can even mask its true nature. Several gadgets are hidden inside.

Cindy: Catgirl Reporter Slut

Nympho Catgirl – Cindy is a reporter at CPDI (Catgirl Perverts do the Interviewed) and always happy to do the name of the program honour. Due to her promiscuous tendencies, her and John’s relationship is mainly “professional”.

Dramar: Hoarder of the World Economy

High Dragon – Dramar is a high dragon with black scales. He is an unusually small representative of his kind. He is also among the most intelligent, being the first (and pretty much only) dragon to figure out that the hoard is largest when it’s used in constant trade interactions.

Head of the Abyss Auction – Head and Founder of the Abyss Auction. Currently in a deal to make the Token the world currency, because he hates that the dollar is pure paper.

Elu: Fusion’s defensive general

Martial Artist – Elu is schooled in a peculiar variety of martial arts. While many resemble other more commonly known techniques, all of her movements are slightly unorthodox due to the traditional fighting styles of the Hidden Tradition.

Ancestor Connection – Elu is somewhat trained in communing with the spirits of the ancestors.

Fred: An absolutely normal chicken

Not suspicious at all – is not suspicious at all.

Janet: Still an absolutely normal chicken

The normalest of chickens – A chicken.

Lorelei: Seer of the Golden Rose

What Others Cannot See – Lorelei, although blind, can conceive of a number of things normal people can’t. This includes reading the emotions and true nature of people from their auras. This reading is sometimes flawed, as it still needs to be interpreted to some degree, but way more accurate than reading emotions out of faces. Most famously, Lorelei is a seer, which means she can receive visions relating to future events. The detail of visions is quite random, the topic of them can be narrowed by touching objects or people whose future is of interest.

Luna: the quiet lover of Romulus

Moon Goddess – Luna is a goddess of death, but an unusual one at that. She specializes in creating various kinds of barriers, many of which can be used as offensive cutting tools.

Elemental – Luna is a light elemental and can turn into either a sword or a shield as her item form.

Mabirl: Wife of Magoi

Engineering Wife – Although she decided to become a full time housewife after she got married, Mabirl does have some solid magical engineering knowledge, particularly in the field of Illusion Barriers and how to hook them up to the electricity grid.

Magnus: Son of Magoi

Dedicated Fateweaver – Although lacking in natural talent, Magnus is a pretty decent Fateweaver thanks to years of dedication.

Magoi: Raptor-masked Fateweaver

High Fateweaver (declining) – Magoi was once a contender for second most able Fateweaver in the world (#1 taken by the now deceased Gehnigm). Those days have sadly passed, as old age causes his powers to degenerate. Magoi’s abilities still put him in the top 100 in the world.

Marathyu: Insane Blacksmith

Knowledge from dark places – Marathyu had prolonged contact with the Lorylim hivemind. How he separated himself from it and how he remained as barely sane as he is remains a mystery. Fact is that he pulled out of the ordeal a whole host of knowledge that improved on his already incredibly high-end blacksmithing skill.

Marie: Demanding Chronicler

Papersword – Marie has a sword made from enchanted paper. Several dozen kinds of spells are bound into the words that cover the blade, allowing her a versatile range of attacks.

Maximillian: Gravity Bro

Innate Ability: Gravity Mage – Maximillian is a powerful gravity mage. He can in- or decrease the level of gravity people and objects experience or even adjust the direction in which they are pulled. Innate magical resistance makes it quite hard to keep gravity magic up on a target directly, rather than a select area in which a target may be.

Amateur Water Mage – Maximillian is learning the basics of water magic from a gemini elemental called Laralia.

Moira: Warden of the Golden Rose

Shield Warden – Moira is a Warden of the Golden Rose, a position that comes with numerous Gaia-granted abilities. Buffing her allies, healing spells, magical shockwaves, and other such paladin-esque things are all in her repertoire. Her virtually indestructible shield is attuned to her inherited Innate Ability, unlocking its full potential (like being able to change its size and shape, as well as being used as a dimensional pocket) in the hands of the right Warden.

Nariko: Head of the Hollmey Clan

Innate Ability: Lightning – Although one’s mind may jump to electricity, lightning is actually a kind of light magic. It takes the shape of arcs of light that have the shape of thunderbolts but are more akin to lasers in the sense that they are primarily heat and light. Nariko has mastered her Innate Ability to such a degree that she is able to convert her entire body into this element for short bursts, allowing her to relocate at an incredible pace.

Nina: Magnus’ Girlfriend

Amateur Fateweaver – Enrolled in the Fateweaver academy after she quit her barkeeping job at the Little Whirl strip bar. Has some basic talent, but nothing that lets her excel in the field.

Reagan: Dad Joke Master

Martial Artist – Reagan is an adept martial artist, not incredibly outstanding but good enough to hold his own and beat up the average Abyssal with ease.

Rodaclam: Chancellor of the Empire

Innate Ability: Crystal Copy – Rodaclam is a latebloomer who can cover his body in crystals that then allow him to copy the magical energies other people around him are shaping, copying the effects with ease. At his old age, these crystals become more difficult to conjure and remove, so he keeps quite a few of them on his body permanently.

Romulus: The Apex

Innate Ability: Godkiller – Romulus and his brother Remus were the first two latebloomers to have an ability so strong it allowed them to shape history to their desires. Romulus’ ability is to absorb the Faith energies from any independent Abyssal entity, including gods, that he injures or slays. Over his several millennia of life, he has stockpiled an incredible arsenal of abilities from all of the entities he has killed. While he wields Faith, he is not a god, as he lacks the ability to tap into the natural flow of Faith to restock his reserves. All the power he has absorbed is spent completely upon usage. To replenish it, he needs to slay more entities sharing that ability.

Master of many fields - Romulus has mastered many schools of magic over the length of his life.

Seminaris: First of Patience

Chaos Ability – Seminaris is a Metracana whose abilities change between contracts. This process is possible thanks to the parts of Tiamat inside of her.

Dimensional Magic - Seminaris’ current magical abilities are focused on teleporting herself, others, or objects to locations of her choosing. To this end, she utilizes portals or instant transmission (the latter being limited to her and her allies).

Patience – Seminaris gains Spellpower the longer she waits between spells, topping out at some unknown point.

Sigmund: The Contender

Innate Ability: Challenger – Sigmund is a latebloomer and has a mixture of all elements, except light, in his soul that is stimulated and nourished every time he defeats a challenging opponent. This causes extreme bursts in power and can even regenerate parts of his body.

Open Wounds – Sigmund has a large number of wounds and broken bones, inflicted by Thana, the goddess of genocide. No matter what attempts are made, they will not heal unless Thana permits it – which she will never do.

Lorylim Patchwork – Although the wounds remain open, they are sealed or otherwise patched by Lorylim matter. What relationship exactly Sigmund has with the Lorylim remains to be seen, but it at least seems that they have not driven him the regular variety of insane.

Sol: the boisterous lover of Romulus

Sun Goddess – Sol is a goddess of life, but an unusual one at that. Although her light is warm and nourishing, it can just as easily scorch and wither what it is aimed at.

Elemental – Sol is a light elemental and can turn into either a sword or a shield as her item form.

Ted: Fusion’s frontline general

Martial Artist – Ted is an adept martial artist. Noticeably above average, he can crush most average people but is shy of being a one-man wrecking crew.

Innate Ability: Earth Magic – Ted has some talent for earth magic, but never cultivated it a whole lot. Martial arts remain his main fighting tool.

Mechanical Limb – Ted’s left arm was sliced off by Sigmund, lost from the elbow downward. It has been replaced by a custom-made mechanical limb that has several gadgets hidden inside it.

The Horned Rat: God of Future Calamity

Expert Shapeshifter – The Horned Rat can quickly and seamlessly change between various shapes and sizes. Certain forms seem to benefit from boosts to certain abilities, such as a goliath form that boosts the god’s relatively low Physical Stats to impressive heights.

Legionbeing – Unlike most gods, who have amalgamated their being into a single definitive spirit and body, the Horned Rat is more of a tight collection of an endless tide of bodies that he lords over as the highest consciousness. What separates from the Horned Rat takes the shape of some animal that is associated with bad omens, such as mice, bats, mangy dogs, spiders or other such beasts.

Expert Mage – the Horned Rat boasts impressive arcane mastery. His main expertise lies in magic pertaining to the gathering and obfuscation of information.

Precognition – The Horned Rat is able to tell prophecies, albeit he himself is often somewhat confused what they mean.

Thresta: Third of Darkness

Seamless Invisibility – Thresta can not only turn invisible, but mask her presence so well that she vanishes to all but the most acute senses specifically searching for her.

Tilgun: Maw of Souls

Soul Eater – Tilgun grows more powerful the more souls he devours. This increase in strength, however, is not permanent, and because he has the same habit as his sister, Nathalia, to take extremely long rests, he tends to spend time in a depowered state. Because he is still a higher dragon, not much exists to challenge him, however.

High Dragon – Tilgun is a maritime dragon, who spends the majority of his time in the ocean or other large bodies of water. He has a special organ in which he can keep his mobile hoard.

Wendy: Delicious Goddess to-go

Fast-Food Goddess – Wendy is the goddess of fast-food. This places her pretty far down the divine totem pole as far as power is concerned. She doesn’t care much for it though, happy to be a being who can provide delicious meals pumped full of helpful magic. For some reason, her body fluids taste like whatever she last cooked. While pretty odd, that is also a delicious development.

William: Lord of the Golden Rose

Vestiges of the Rose – The Lord of the Golden Rose seems to possess the same powers as his daughter Moira.

Worlina: Goblin Slut

Sucks Dick for Interviews – Worlina is renowned for her blowjob skills, although John found her to be only about as good as the rest of his harem. A mixture of porn actress and interviewer, she asks questions of her guests before getting used by them.
