Manifestation: Sulfur

"Are you a total nerd when it comes to chemical compounds? Do you like seeing things melt away because of highly-concentrated acidic solutions? Then the Sulfur Manifestation may be for you!

With the Sulfur Manifestation, you can create ANY chemical compound that exists or that you can think of, so long as there is enough Sulfur in the compound. Additionally, the User is able to control sulfur (both created and existing) in different ways, such as collecting it from the surrounding area, dispersing them around the area, and otherwise directing them to go in a chosen direction. Gather all the sulfuric acid from an area, and splash it on an enemy!

Additionally, the Sulfur user is highly resistant to unwanted chemical effects, and entirely immune to any sulfur-based chemical effects, so long as the mixture is at least 10% sulfur by molar mass. This means that, when dunked into a vat of hydrochloric acid, the chemical reaction of the User's body will be slower, but not stopped. Dipping the body into 10% or higher sulfuric acid, however, will effectively be like dipping the body into plain water!" -The Fool, on Sulfur join the Brokerage or... Sulfur the consequences? cant create a better mixture of words than that.

Manifestation: Slate

"Do you like reading bestiary entries? Do you like being in contact with a demon? Wouldn't it be cool to work with the demon to change the bestiary entries to mess with the beasts they're based on? Then the Slate Manifestation is for you!

The Slate Manifestation allows the User to summon forth a small slab of stone, that is connected to a demon whose name we only know as Bad. This demon has its own opinions on many things, and "showing" the creature to the Slate (but not the other way around) and asking Bad for information will cause him to write on a similar Slate wherever they are, which magically appears on the Slate held by the User.

This information can then, for a cost, be changed and the change will be reflected on the object itself. For example, using Slate on a baseball may be returned as "A piece of cork covered in synthetic skin." The User could then change this, to read something like "It's a piece of pork covered in mustard." Or "It's a stone covered in human skin." Or even "it's a cube of tungsten covered with inscriptions." In this way, the baseball would become whatever the User wanted- within reason, of course!" -The Fool, on Slate with your help, we will be slated to start sooner than we thought. join the Brokerage.

Manifestation: Sand

"Do you like sand? Do you think it's not coarse and rough and irritating, and it doesn't get everywhere? Do you want additional protection against death? Then the Sand Manifestation may be for you!

The Sand Manifestation allows the User to create and control specially-shaped sand particles, much in the shape of an hourglass- which, perhaps ironically, is the Brokerage's Discord Channel Icon! These particles can act in any way the User wishes, so long as they have the Potential to move them.

As cool as that may be, that's just the beginning of the Sand Manifestation's power. If the User dies while using Sand, they enter a special form, known as Glass form. While the User is in Glass form, their whole way of interacting with the world around them changes.

While in Glass form, the User can simply pass through transparent objects, as if it was you or me passing through the air. However, an opaque object will stop the User in their tracks. A translucent surface threatens to distort the User's features- almost like the User themselves turns into light!

Additionally, while in a glass form, the User can create panes of special Glass that when shattered, become much more dangerous than normal Glass shards, as well as are able to be controlled by the User, to some extent. Slice your enemies to ribbons with shattered panes!" -The Fool, on Sand not joining the Brokerage would be a pane for both of us. sign up today.

Manifestation: Santa

"Feeling jolly? Want to give out gifts this season? Well, too fucking bad, because the Santa Manifestation is already property of Saint Nick himself!

The User of the Santa Manifestation (also known as Santa) can travel the world and drop off presents at blistering speeds by themselves, but onlookers see this travel as much slower, and upon a sleigh propelled by seven reindeer. The front one's nose can even glow if they expend a little more Potential!

Please note that this is not a real manifestation and was spurred on by a comment in the memes channel. Regardless, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from the Brokerage!" -Phantom, on Santa happy holidays. get us the best present possible by joining the Brokerage!

Potential

"Potential is a resource possessed by characters which is similar to Mana. Whenever you take an action involving your Manifestation, it expends some Potential. Each time you do this, your maximum Potential increases by an amount proportional to the amount of Potential expended. Potential regenerates rapidly while in an Unreality, but not at all while in Reality. Unless you’re currently in combat / another time-sensitive situation or are otherwise rapidly chaining together multiple uses of Manifestations, it is safe to assume that your Potential is effectively infinite. Note that there is an enforced upper limit of 999,999,999 maximum Potential. If you are approaching this limit, then refrain from using your Manifestation, so you don’t raise your maximum beyond it. Failure to comply will result in Potential Failure State (PFS), which ends the game for everyone."

-The Tyrant, on Potential the lifeblood of our power. use it wisely. join the Brokerage, we see Potential in you.

Manifestation: Seize

"Do you hate machines? Do you also hate anything that flies? What about things that move fast? If you do, then the Seize Manifeststion may be for you!

The Seize Manifestation allows its User to metaphorically throw a wrench into the gears of some systems, be they nervous or mechanical. It can cause machinery to stop working entirely, or it can cause any entity to lose the use of their own body, assuming their nervous system is based around electrical impulses.

Additionally, a Seized entity, object, or machine can be forced to remain in place. For example, freezing someone's shirt, in order to keep them in a position, which would be cheaper than just freezing the person!

Similarly, you can drag an entity that has been Seized in the above manner. Live out your dream of miming fishing, and dragging someone towards you!

This Manifestation used to be able to do a lot of other things, but it's been trimmed down. Come to the Brokerage, and ask what it could do before!"

-The Fool, on Seize. join the Brokerage to/.';.'sd.d'h;

Shepherd is fun. and mine. no touch. this image also works for Summon.

Manifestation: Spirit

"Did you spam "Speak with Dead" on every NPC you could in Baldur's Gate 3? Are you considered a goth? Do you see dead people? Then maybe the Spirit Manifestation is for you!

The User of the Spirit Manifestation is able to commune with and summon the spirits of creatures. The creature HAS to be dead, before the User can begin communion. Unfortunately, not all dead creatures see humans as worthy- some can't even see at all, or understand us, or speak out language. These are common obstacles in summoning spirits.

However, summoning spirits that you cannot speak to or otherwise glean information from may still be useful! My manifesting the spirit, the User can temporarily bring back a dead creature. Unfortunately, just the simple act does not constitute loyalty, or even remove hostility- that's why the Spirit User is also able to Command, in addition to Manifesting.

Usage of this Manifestation will become more useful as we all learn more about the entities found in and outside of Reality- so if you DON'T want this Manifestation, but you DO want to study horrifying eldritch beings, then the person that does eventually use this Manifestation will owe you a favor! Take it from The Fool: having someone owe you a favor is so much more fun!" -The Fool, on Spirit. get some... team spirit? get in the spirit? i don't know. join The Brokerage anyway.

Manifestation: Strike

"Are you a fan of monks in D&D? Do you wanna punch someone in the face so hard, all the skin is flayed off their body? Do you like yoga? Well too bad! The Strike Manifestation has already been claimed!

The User of the Strike Manifestation is granted eldritch knowledge of a fighting style based on that which is used by one of the Seven Sins- specifically, Wrath. This fighting style is known as Brutality, and it allows a person with sufficient knowledge and power to perform feats straight out of hit action animes, like Dragon Ball or One Punch Man!

Brutality makes use of yoga-like poses and movements, that will result in an effect taking place. The whole movement is called a Kata. The Fool's favorite Kata is Pierce, where you mime the action of drawing and then firing an arrow with a shortbow, and it fires, blowing a hole in whatever is hit! There are several more that are currently known, and even more that are unknown to us!

If the Katas aren't your thing, you can also just simply beat the shit out of someone- activating Strike grants a significant boost to the User's kinetic energy (notably NOT their speed) and Offense score, so if you really just wanna pound a bitch into red paste, you can!"

-The Fool, on Strike. sorry someone beat you to the punch. oh well. join The Brokerage anyway.

Manifestation: Speed

"With the Speed Manifestation, you can be as close as you can get to being a time wizard as a Player! Make entities and objects around you speed up and slow down at your whims, and as an added bonus, maybe even send them careening backwards or sideways through space like they just got punched by the anime protagonist, with only minimal contact required!

That's it! Pretty quick one, huh?" The Fool, on Speed. i'll keep it quick, join The Brokerage.

Manifestation: Stalker

"TW: Gore, emotional manipulation, death, stalking

WARNING. This Manifestation is one of the very, very few that are not recommended. The Fool used to want this Manifestation, until he was allowed to use it for the time period of one week. He no longer wants it. WARNING.

The Stalker Manifestation gives the User a friend! This friend can do all sorts of things- kill your enemies, kill your allies, break your bones, flay your skin, make you hallucinate, make you schizophrenic, disappear, reappear, die, come back to life, destroy everything, and even make a sandwich!

If the User is lucky enough to have Potential, they can try to give the Stalker a request. The more Potential invested in the request, the more likely and the longer the "friend" will comply.

Fool's Note: the Stalker is an asshole man I thought I was getting a cool buddy and instead I got realistic Cthulhu mixed with realistic yandere. I wanna go home" - The Fool, on Stalker maybe don't pick this one. or do. i don't care. some poor sap is going to get stuck with it. join The Brokerage now to make sure they aren't you.
