The Progenitor of Man (Records of Ragnarok)

Cost: 40 SP

You are the progenitor of mankind, the first human from which all of humanity has descended. Your love for humanity knows no bounds, and you are willing to face insurmountable odds to protect your children, even if it means battling the gods themselves. Your endurance is unimaginable, able to continue fighting for a short period after your body has died. Created in the image of a god, your beauty is even admired by beings like Aphrodite. Your reflexes are so impressive you are able to dodge punches that are faster than light. Your durability is remarkable as well, enabling you to withstand powerful blows from divine beings. Your charisma towards humans is immense, capable of touching their hearts and uniting them, if only temporarily. Regardless of the powers or strength you acquire, you will always retain the ability to assume a human form. For you are human.

As the first man, you were destined to rule over all Earth's animals. Most creatures will naturally be friendly towards you and may even lend you their aid. Additionally, you possess the Eyes of the Lord, which possess the ability of Divine Reflection. These eyes allow you to perfectly replicate any move or technique you witness. They even grant you temporary biological adaptations to accurately reproduce certain techniques. However, there are limitations to these eyes. They cannot replicate techniques dependent on external sources; they only work for different forms of inner power or energy. The strain of perceiving opponents' attacks puts a certain amount of pressure on your nervous system. Pushing your eyes to their limits causes your body to overheat, and further abuse risks rendering you blind, with bleeding occurring from your nose, eyes, and ears. Consequently, you lose the ability to use Divine Reflection.

The Body of Man

You embody the essence of humanity, able to seamlessly blend various forms and races into your human form. In this unified state, you possess the complete human experience in mind, body, and spirit, while retaining all the benefits of your diverse forms without their drawbacks. Your human form is adaptable, capable of incorporating traits from your other forms. For example, by combining your human form with that of a dragon, you can choose to appear fully human or possess draconic attributes such as horns, wings, or a tail. The decision is yours to make.

If you have children, they will be humanoid beings with predominantly human features and traits. You possess limited control over determining their characteristics. Furthermore, your offspring can inherit the powers you possess, provided you grant them permission. With sufficient concentration, you even have the ability to selectively decide which powers they will inherit.
