Essence ofCiaphas Cain (Warhammer 40K)

By drinking this Essence of divine fortune and all-consuming terror, you become the inheritor to the great Ciaphas Cain.

• You are brought to the peak of the (unaugmented) human condition in all regards. Any existing issues or conditions are cured, and you become extremely resistant or even outright immune to the degradation or lessening of your health.

• You have access to a perfected version of the Juvenat treatments, allowing you to safely prolong your life and youth indefinitely without any negative side effects. These treatments can also regenerate you from any otherwise crippling injuries, including the destruction of most of your body. Moreover, you can share this treatment with anyone you wish, and revoke it just as easily.

• As the successor to among the greatest of the Imperial Commissariat, you possess all the knowledge, skill, and ability that would put you among the greatest Commissars they have ever seen. This includes a mastery in tactics, leadership, combat and every other skill that might be needed or desired for a legendary commander, soldier, and warrior. To be blunt, you could rival any member of the Imperium, past or present, alone or combined, with your sheer competence.

• As a member of the Imperial Commissariat, you have your own custom Comissar's uniform, with it's appearance and traits completely customizable by you. Regardless of how it looks, it will give you an air of dignity and authority regardless of circumstances.

• You gain an immunity to the negative effects of stress, fear, exhaustion, and depression. Your focus will not falter, your fatigue will not overwhelm you, and no stomach ulcer will take root in your body (among other benefits). You can fight for weeks in the harshest conditions and still have enough energy to lay siege to your enemies.

• You possess great humility and reason, preventing any arrogance or overestimation of your abilities from taking over from your successes.

• You possess a great charisma and aptitude for manipulation, allowing you to draw countless powerful, competent, and loyal people to your side or service with little effort. So long as they are not mistreated, they will allow you to lead them into the depths of the Warp itself should you ask. This also grants you the mental abilities to have a good relationship with every one of your troops and allies, no matter how numerous they might be.

• You have a great force seemingly lost to the Imperium of Man; common sense. You see easy and effective solutions where your morally bankrupt compatriots would see only problems to be solved by genocide, logic where others are blinded by dogma, and innovation where others would only see potential heresy.

• Like Ciaphas Cain, you possess a strange attractive force for those you might find attractive and desirable. Soldiers, Inquisitors, even Chaos Sorceresses, none are safe from being romantically and/or sexually attracted to you. And you also possess the skills, talents, and luck to please whoever you might enter in a relationship with (and keep them with you - no NTR for you!).

• You gain a baffling, near endless amount of good fortune. You can casually fire off a Bolter and accidentally hit a Greater Daemon in just the right spot to utterly eradicate it, all the while making others believe that was your intention all along. To put it bluntly, you stumble ass over teakettle into success. Combined with your competence, this fortune could have the entire galaxy fearing and respecting you out of sheer misunderstanding, even if you attempt to tell them otherwise.

• As one of the greatest champions of the Imperium, you possess an ability that many would kill for: you are unable to be negatively affected by the Warp and those aligned to it. You are not a Blank, but your mind, body, and more cannot be affected even by all Four Ruinous Powers at their peak. This also makes you a tremendous blind spot for Daemons and other Warp beings, in all their cunning and planning.

• You can summon to you any weapons, tools, vehicles, and other equipment from Warhammer 40K, not just the Imperium. This also includes any ammunition or fuel they might need. You have full knowledge and experience when it comes to using whatever you summon.

• You can speak, write, and understand any languages and cultures from Warhammer 40K, even those you should not be biologically able to.

• You possess a treasure beyond all compare: the legendary Omnicopaeia. This mythical database and production facility contains all the knowledge, science, and technology discovered by humanity up until the beginning of the Age of Strife, miracles of progress long since lost to the galaxy. Safe and effective FTL Travel, weapons that can permanently slay any entity, methods of infinite energy….if you can imagine it, some equivalent exists in the Omnicopaeia's vast databanks. As if that weren't enough, your particular copy of the Omnicopaeia contains the complete and unredacted information, knowledge, science, and other data from the Warhammer 40K universe, even that which wasn't recorded. This database is extremely intuitive and easy to use, will update based on the setting(s) you find yourself in, and possesses the ability to combine its data to produce new developments and more effective designs. You are also able to understand and recreate anything in the database. Moreover, nothing in this database can harm you, not even memetic information. Should you lose it or have it be destroyed, you can summon a fresh copy to you at any time. Needless to say, you might want to be careful who you let know of this, since galactic wars have been started for far less.

• You possess a personal flask which automatically and endlessly refills with whatever beverage or drink you desire (though this defaults to recaf or tanna tea).

• Optionally, you have your own adjutant, an aid and bodyguard to help you. You can freely customize every aspect of them, as well as their relationship with you. No matter how they are customized, they will be exceptionally capable and competent in any task you might ask or desire of them. By default, this is someone like Ferik Jurgen.

• The name of Ciaphas Cain is one associated with greatness, for the man himself was destined to have his place in history (whether desired or not), no matter the timeline. He has been an Inquisitor, an Astartes, a member of the Mechanicus, a Primarch, a Warmaster of Chaos, a Daemon Prince serving the Imperium, the sole male of the Adeptus Sororitas, and so much more….and you share such roles, for you know possess the knowledge, powers, skills, equipment & other abilities of every iteration of Ciaphas Cain, none of which will ever negatively affect you or each other.

• Nothing from this Essence (or derived from it) can ever affect you negatively or be used against you, should you not wish it.

• If you feel anything is missing from this Essence or should be otherwise altered…..Fanwank responsibly.
