《The Abyss That Stares》Interlude: No-name's current progress
Advertisement
No-name's current Core abilities: Analyzation and adoption, shapeshifting and major regeneration, psionic link and assault, minor telekinesis, invisibility, minor osteokinesis,electrokinesis, electroreception, space warping (minor teleportation), minor clairvoyance.
As a note, all Core abilities require the use of Core energy. While at this point in time we don't have a numeric value to measure No-name's current energy, it is six times larger than when we first observed him. Now, for what his abilities do.
Analyzation and adoption: Complete understanding of whatever organic material one consumes that has still retained its original structure, down to the cellular level, and the ability to incorporate and even improve on these designs. This means one can't gain anything from prepared food, as it is too far removed from the original design. Category 1 ability.
Shapeshifting and major regeneration: In addition to its Core ability cost, this ability requires a supply of readily available biomass. In the event that there is no excess biomass in the user's system, it will break down already existing biomass incorporated into designs to fuel regeneration and other shapeshifting. Category 1 ability.
Psionic link and assault: The most common category 2 Core ability, this allows one to establish a mental link with a target, or multiple targets. Through this mental link, the user can read passive, surface level thoughts, as well as communicate mentally with their target. They can also push strong sensations through the link in an assault on the mind, potentially debilitating their quarry as the sensations overwhelm their senses. Effectiveness depends on the user's own mental strength, Core energy, and ability to concentrate, versus a target's own rivaling strengths.
Minor telekinesis: A lesser version of telekineses that is limited influencing one's own body, or small objects. Category 3 ability.
Invisibility: Invisibility can belong to multiple categories. Its effect changes depending on whcih one it belongs to. A category 2 invisibility effect will alter another target's perception of the user. A category 3's ability relies on bending light around them, making them imperceptible to those who rely on visible light. A category 4's invisbility, however, is the most cost intensive one, as it completely removes the user from reality, making them imperceptible to all senses. No-name's invisibility falls under the category 4 variety.

Minor Osteokinesis: A lesser version of osteokinesis that is limited to influencing one's own bones, or smaller bones. Category 3 ability.
Electrokinesis: This allows the user to supercharge molecules around them, vibrating at a high frequency to produce lightning and control it. Category 3 ability.
Electroreception: Allows the user to sense the electric signals created by most living creatures with a brain. Category 2 ability.
Space Warping (Minor Teleportation): A lesser version of teleportation, this creates a tiny portal that only the user can utilize, and only with small portions of its body. This portal lasts less than a second, and keeping it open any longer costs exponentially more Core energy. Category 7 ability.
Minor Clairvoyance: No-name currently has no idea what this ability does, or how to utilize it.
No-name's current complete anatomies: Mutated canine (Wolf and Hound) anatomies, Mutated mustilidae (Honey Badger) anatomy, Mutated Homo (Human) anatomy, Mutated Sopho (Nuan) anatomy, Mutated cervidae (Elk) anatomy, Avian (Brown Thrasher and Vulture) anatomies, rodent (Porcupine) anatomy, and Mutated ursidae (Grizzly Bear) anatomy.
Standalone structures: Scything tentacles, tetrachromatic oscular system, acid glands, corrosive immunic flesh, acid secretion tract, and rigid armor.
No-name's current appearance: No-name currently resembles a thin, well-featured young human male with long, shaggy brown hair, brown wolf ears, and a bushy brown tail. His most notable features include longer claws at the end of his fingers and toes, and slightly luminous yellow eyes. Most people mistake these features as signs of mutation. He currently stands at 1.67 meters, and weighs 72 kilograms (5'4" and 158 lbs).
Current structures utilized by No-name: A full human anatomy, with an altered digestive and respiratory tract. A total of thirty six tentacles that rest in a tight ball in his lower back, just beneath the skin. These tentacles each hold various sensory organs inside of them, including eyes and auditory nerves, as well as a line of bone tracts that allow for easier production of serrated teeth to protrude when necessary, and the tips of each tentacle end in either a barbed talon, or a sharpened point.

Despondent Divinity
There exists a Great Seal which split the world in two, one half ravaged by the Darkness, the other a safe haven of Light. Since the collapse of the old world, 20,000 years have passed, and the world watches on as their only protection from the Plague of Plagues slowly dissipates. Only the strong may survive the oncoming Demon horde, and the forgotten prince, Jack Calmira, fears he may not have what it takes. In a world where weakness is punished by death, what are weak men to do? Author's Note: Expect a chapter or two every month, but I'll get faster eventually. This story isn't a Wuxia, but it has a lot of eastern influence. The MC isn't OP and is flawed. Less action, more character driven. Constructive criticism would be appreciated as it's my first story. Chinese culture has inspired a lot of the novel, but much of it is an amalgamation of different cultures, some made up and some not. Think Xianxia + Shounen with a mix of western and eastern fantasy elements.
