Powers are what make the world go round. They are the abilities that your creature (and sometimes mim) can buy or inherit. In this highly digitized world, there are two types of powers. Natural, and Bought.
~Bought Powers:
Bought powers are received from power cubes. They are absorbed and the power that the cube contains is absorbed. Powers vary.
There are two types of bought power cubes. Energy Power Cubes, and Ammo Power Cubes (EPCs and APCs)
~~APCs are on one end of the spectrum. They are power cubes with a specific number of uses. Usually these are either extremely common and sold with around ten uses by street vendors, or they are extremely rare. After the fortress war, many power cube recipes were destroyed in the birth of a new age and many APCs were either lost, or spread throughout the universe.
~~EPCs run purely on energy. Cubes of the future! They use the energy of the creature along with an amount of energy stored within itself to activate and use. Each cube is permanent. As long as you have energy you can use them. They are also much more expensive due to their permanence. Rarer powers are distributed but kept monitored and some EPC powers are retired entirely.
~Natural Powers
Natural powers are generally more powerful than their bought counterparts. They usually allow for more control and take less energy. These powers are powers you are born with. Genetics play a key role on whether you inherit powers and what powers you get. Certain powers can only be used when they are natural. Also, there are rituals, said to grant natural powers? (what??)
Power cubes only allow for one at a time power use. You can't use two or more cubes at the same time. With inherited powers, you can combine powers and use multiple at the same time as long as they are all natural.
