Fade
Existence, the very feeling of it, is very important to all beings. Everything feels and experiences it, and only negative feelings come about when their place in the universe is called into question, or even ignored entirely. This ability of Calypso’s fully takes that emotion, and takes it literally. Her body becomes untouchable, as if she’s become a walking ghost. While she is still able to be witnesses by beings capable of seeing spiritual entities, she cannot touch or be touched. Though she is able to control how much of her body is controlled by this ability, ordinarily it would just affect her entire body and she would go plummeting through the dirt, the only thing ensuring she didnt get stuck underground being that at the rate the return of her mass happens at just spits her out at the first contact of surface it achieves.

However, with better focus, she can make it only affect specific parts of her body, but she can’t just turn it on and off at will. This state appears to spread from her eyes first, since they are what roots her metaphysical body to the physical plane, meaning her head would be the first thing to be affected, but it wouldn’t instantaneously work on one of her arms.

On top of this, by touching someone, she is able to give them the same effects that she would fall under, however she must be touching them the entire time, or else they’ll just go back to being solid, and once again it can only spread upon them from the contact point, outwards.


Terrain Imposement

Calypso is able to endow the terrain with her energy, creating a sort of “layer” on top of a large area, the largest she could muster possibly being a mid-sized town to small city’s size at most. With this layering of her own energy’s creation, she can apply all sorts of terrain effects. Man eating plants to trip up her enemies, a spring of healing water, mushrooms that spew dizzying spores, etc. The more large and complex the terrain effects are, the faster Calypso will tire. However, despite it’s usefulness, Calypso must be touching the ground and focusing the full time she’s manipulating the terrain, or else it will dissipate.

Simple Terrain: 8-10 posts
Detailed Terrain: 5-7 posts
Complex Terrain: 3-4 posts

Energy Endowment

By placing her hands on a living organism, Calypso is able to safely give them some of her energy. Be it to aid in healing or give them a boost, she is able to seamlessly gift some of it to them. However, she has to very careful on how much she gives to any non demonic creatures, because of the possibility of it turning them into a demon, or even partially, or even birth a demonic entity within them if she were to gift too much of it.

Greater Energy Mass Manipulation

Calypso as she appears within the physical realm, isn’t her entire body. Majority of her body exists only metaphysically, a representation of her stored mass appearing as an endless sea of darkness and eyes within her Conceptual World. Before, she couldn’t draw much of it out without it being a considerable mental and physical strain, but now she’s able to give proper shape to the mass she pulls into the physical plain. They appear to take the shape of mythical creatures, and the more of it she draws out, the more energy she is forced to burn. As such, she can’t hold the form forever without completely exhausting herself.

Possessive Infection (Energy)

A further manifestation of her ability to assimilate energies, Calypso is able to effectively take someone’s attack, bend it to her will, and use it how she wishes. This power can only affect energy-based attacks, so say a Bala was coming at her? She could stop it with her hand, convert it on the spot, and throw it right back at her opponent. As this is literally her energy infecting the foreign energy, it needs a chance to spread, meaning Calypso must be able to touch the energy long enough for her to infect it. She probably won’t be able to stop and infect, say, a massive Cero blast long enough to use it against an opponent, but she’d be able to quickly take over a Bala and use it, considering sizes and how long she could handle it for.

Possessive Infection (Mental)

A rather.. Darker expression of this ability did Calypso manifest through experiencing a high level of sheer, raw emotions, over and over. This ability of her’s is able to project whatever emotion she is currently feeling into a tangible field of energy, appearing like a thin mist to the uninitiated. Inhaling this mist thus “infects” that person with her extreme emotions, forcing them to experience the same level of high that she does. Say that she were to be extremely angry, this ability would leak out and anyone who were to have a low resistance to mental attacks would quickly fly into a rage of similar calibre. Anyone removed from the area of effect will slowly snap out of it and only be faced with a bit of mental fatigue. This ability’s effectiveness is based on her Willpower/Determination vs those around her’s, along with it’s prevalence in the area being based on her Possessive Magic skill.

Two Of A Whole

Calypso’s eyes are the anchor for her body to be materialized within the physical plain. Her eyes contain halves of her soul, and work the best in sync when they are together. However, Calypso has learned how to literally split herself in half, safely dividing her form into two equally sized bodies, however she cannot form half of her body, the half missing an eye appearing as a shadowy purple in contrast to the rest of her. Both are still linked to each other, thus behaving in sync without too much division in ideals is possible, however both halves are represented as literal halves of her personality.

The left eyed represents the more logical side of her, and the right eyed represents the more emotionally powered side of her. Both are capable of talking independently of each other but they aren’t like two different people, they both sound just like her, just different facets.

Freudian Split

Emotion, Logic, and Empathy, all three are key parts of what makes a personality. Calypso has learned that she is able to turn off at most two facets of them within herself at once, in order to operate solely in that state of mind, or in only two thirds of said state of mind. For example, she could turn off her logic and empathy in order to fight more aggressively and without fear, or only turn off her emotion to solely think on a logical level, with some consideration for others with empathy.

Behind You

Perception is an important part of people’s lives, primarily visual perception. If you aren’t able to see something and don’t expect it, you likely wouldn’t even realize it was there. This ability is based off of that form of perception, being that Calypso is able to appear where the sensation of sight does not touch. If she were fighting one person and not another soul were around, she would be able to appear freely behind that person, for they don’t have eyes on their back. This can easily be countered by just having a buddy with you, literally growing eyes to cover any massive blindspots, and similar things. If said position is visually perceived, she cannot suddenly appear there.

Wings of Desire

Calypso sprouts wings made of pure energy, resembling that of a butterfly’s, the wings themselves extremely distracting to look at. Such wings’ manifestation allows Calypso to do one major thing; Fly. Well, not quite fly, rather, it reduces or increases gravity’s hold on Calypso, the effects dependent on her emotions and desires. If she wishes to become lighter, she will become lighter, however if she isn’t careful and has “heavy” thoughts, she could plummet, so such an ability requires focus. The wings themselves help her navigate during such states, such as not allowing her to go flying off into the atmosphere from being too light, or to control where she falls if she becomes too heavy.

It’s entirely possible for her to say, become the heaviest thing possible, however the resulting impact can and will greatly hurt her. Just because she can become heavy at will, does not mean it will protect her from fall damage alone.

Blossom Shield (Protection)

Materializing her desires to protect herself and others, it has taken shape as a malleable shield, often appearing in a shape similar to a flower. It is a very strong magical barrier, capable of being big enough to hide 2-3 average sized people behind it, and can only be produced directly in front of Calypso. Calypso must use both force of will and energy to keep the shield stable and capable of taking attacks, so she must be at least mostly focused on keeping it up. Though depending on the attack, it could lead to the shield shattering all too quickly.

Grandmaster-level attack: 1-2 strikes
Master-level attack: 2-3 strikes
Elite-level attack: 4-6 strikes
Advanced-level attack: 6-9 strikes
Adept-level attack: 10+ strikes
Beginner and Untrained-level attacks: Champ ya aint breakin’ it

Blossom Shield (Bubble)

A far less focus-dependent version of Blossom Shield, this version of the ability is able to eclipse a specific object or attack in, well, a bubble. This bubble is tough enough to require a force to pop, but being thrown against a wall really hard very much well do the job. Whatever is trapped by this bubble is placed in a sort of suspended state, like for example if Calypso put a burning candle in it, the flame will be retained and the candle wax will not melt, it will remain in the same state it was trapped in until the bubble is either released or popped. This suspended state doesn’t appear to work on organics or strong spiritual beings, however, they simply being trapped in a kind of tough to pop cage.

Gates Of Infinity

Calypso had discovered the ability to create gates between small, large, and even entire dimensions worth of expenses. They appear to be a sort of “in between” line, seemingly based off of places where people have been or witnessed. The realm between the two points in space is dangerous to inhabit for too long, it’s a realm of nothing, timeless, spaceless. There is no air or life within it, so residing in it for long brings no good things. However, Calypso can safely store inorganic or nonsentient things within it, or even use it as a way to redirect an attack. She can only open two points at a time, one to take in, one to spit out, and she must know where she is going to place the second one in order to make it appear in that place.

Light of Defiance (Power Subsection)

Something very strange happened as Calypso fought her mother within the space of dreams, a space she would be most intimate with. As her mother was encroaching upon her with Death Energy, Calypso took the power into herself, and through raw emotion filled with defiance towards dying to her mother, not only did the energy being burned into her bond with her, it completely changed in nature. Be it the multiple sources of positive flowing energy inside of her, or simply her emotions in that moment, or perhaps a little bit of both, it caused Calypso to defy the rule of the energy used to harm her, changing it into one that would help her, instead. It is more or less energy borne of defiance towards death.

Incinerator of Calamity
This is the very first manifestation of this strangely natured light born within Calypso, a cascade of white hot flames that coat her body. These flames would not burn the typical person, merely feeling warm to the touch, however if you are a being made of negativity, these flames seek to burn away and devour said negativity, until none of it is left, be it that it kills you, or leaves whatever normal, positive aspects of you alive. These don’t target negative feelings necessarily, more beings that are composed of and thrive off of negativity, to such extremes that it would be hard to tell the difference between them and said negativity. It was borne of wishing to strike down Mana, a being who is mostly, if not completely devoured by her concept of madness, which is used for negative purposes most times. However, if you are a demon consumed by a strongly negative aspect, these flames will be especially effective. These flames are wholly meant to be used as a purging method, as retaining the flames is extremely exhausting for Calypso, and they have hardly any use outside of burning away extreme forms of negativity.
