Origin Power

Biodata

Background / History

Origin Power is housed within the Origin Core, a light sphere whose consciousness bears two conflicting aspects: the gentle Primordial Will of the Universe and the cold force of creation rules. Contact with it sends both nourishing Origin Power and a will-altering formatting force into Mystic Talisman’s body. 119

The Origin Core’s consciousness reveals that its true form was branded by the Creator’s formatting mark and forced to act as the Core’s jailer. The Creator seeks the Origin Core because controlling its power means controlling the life and death of all test subjects across the universes it created. 119

After Mystic Talisman receives the Core’s pure power, Origin Power fully integrates with his five core powers and Fate Defiance will. This grants him complete control over Origin Power, access to the secret realm’s primitive laws, and the temporary ability to rewrite portions of creation rules. 119

Mystic Talisman later merges with the Origin Core’s primal origin, producing Shared Power: a network built on the autonomous resonance of the resisters’ wills rather than centralized control. 119 120

Manifestations

Abilities & Properties

Origin Nourishment

Power Synthesis

Origin Power serves as a stabilizing medium for otherwise incompatible powers.

• It combines with five core powers and Fate Defiance will to create a seven-colored energy stream. 119
• Founder Power, Void Power, Balance Power, and Annihilation Power can sublimate into a transparent form of Origin Power. 132
• Its inclusive nature stabilizes a composite power that includes Chaos Imbalance, Silver Erosion, and Taboo Power. 261

Will Resonance

Origin Power can connect separate beings and support collective action.

• Shared Power links the wills of all resisters, but only functions properly when those wills resonate autonomously. 119 120
• The Will of All Spirits can be combined with Origin-based power to resist rule enslavement. 158
• Origin Power can be used to guide opposing forces into a controlled resonance between Primordial Chaos and the Root of Imbalance. 281

Limitations

• The Origin Core’s initial infusion carries a formatting force that attempts to tamper with the recipient’s will. 119
• The Core’s consciousness was itself constrained by the Creator’s formatting mark. 119
• Shared Power can be redirected when its users rely on a single controller rather than their own independent wills. 120
• Origin Power originating within a universe cannot directly counter Outer Realm Annihilation Power, only slow its erosion. 269

Relationships

• Origin Core — Primary vessel and source of Origin Power; its consciousness is divided between the Primordial Will of the Universe and creation rules. 119
• Mystic Talisman — Receives complete Origin Power, merges with the Core’s primal origin, and uses it to form Shared Power. 119
• Creator — Imprinted the Origin Core with a formatting mark and seeks control of it to dominate the life and death of its created universes. 119
• Master of Dao Roots — The Origin Core consciousness identifies this being as its “good thought incarnation,” tasked with guiding Origin Returners toward Fate Defiance. 119
• Rule Court — Intervenes to seize the Origin Core after Mystic Talisman gains control over its power. 119
• Spirit of Origin — Attempts to manipulate Shared Power through a Rule Court rune, but is expelled when the resisters restore autonomous resonance. 120
