2By the way, MC doesn't have Enhanced Condition, just the sub-powers that the demon people sometimes call "Arabian werewolf", which are Enhanced Durability/Strength/Speed, I thought this would be more fair as it would make sense for it to have it, can't really imagine a corpse eating demon comparable to a ghoul having enhanced reading or enhanced calculation
Chapter 2 ~ Truth
Once more, I fell onto the floor, but no pain was felt, just like before I opened up my eyes and immediately realized several things.
First off, it was bright, immediately in front of me everywhere was bright white, completely different to the black void it was with Rob, another thing I noticed was that I was wearing clothes, a T-shirt, a coat, jeans, complete with socks and shoes.
Standing off I dust myself off,...which I have no idea why I did that seeing as there is no dust here, looking to my left to see if there is anything I see an enormous gate floating right in front of me,...which just confirmed where I am, which was getting increasingly horrifying.
I slowly turned to my right, and just as I suspected, there it was, there was a figure on the floor sitting in butterfly position, I looke-, okay look is a strong word, if it weren't for the outline of it, he would blend in quite perfectly in here.
But basically 'looking' over to him, I could make out what was the outline of what my body would be without any sort of details like a nose or hair,...which made it extremely creepy considering the fact it, with my face, was smiling right at me.
"...h-hey universe, how's it hanging in the world of infinite whiteness of the void?" I nervously started until I slipped into a casual tone...at which point I have activated bullshit mode.
...It's useful, at least it will be,...eventually, I doubt this will work on a being that may be at the moment myself and the world.
My thoughts were proven to be correct as Truth giggled and placed his hand on his...face? Or at least where his face would be at for any one else.
"Hnhn Really? You come to my world, to my plane, and the first thing you have to say for yourself is that? HnhnhnHnhnhn," Truth with an incredibly irritating smug tone that just annoys the hell out of me,...which is probably why it did it based on the fact it's demented smile widened.
"Well first off me having this kind of tongue kind of surprised me right there, not usually really a what people would call a smooth talker, but hey I started out my day jogging to the gym, proceeded to get run over by a truck and found myself a play thing of an lazy R.O.B., which basically threw me in here into another being that is this world's version of God, so excuse me as I didn't really get much choice in this," I have explained to him flamboyantly waving a hand, while on the inside I was wondering what the hell is going on, as I'm just allowing the first thing that comes to mind out of my mouth.
"Hnhnhn I am well aware of your predicament, some may say you are fortunate while others would start yelling about why fate hates them," Truth spoke with amusement, whenever he laughed its shoulders shook up and down in motion with his laughter.
"...alright before anything else could you answer me if you are going to take an arm from me or something,...I would like to formally request you to not do that please, thank you," I anxiously asked.
"Well you didn't do anything to warrant that, so no need to worry about that, at least for now," truth's smile widened even further, "at least for now,".
I felt a shiver go down my spine, "ok...hopefully not anytime soon,...or ever, but I see that I have a Portal, does that mean I can use alchemy?" As that was actually a good question as that would give me limited Matter Manipulation given that I have the knowledge.
"That WOULD be the case...if you didn't receive your abilities from your….let's say benefactor Hnhnhn," I felt the urge to roll my eyes at truth's choice of description of my Rob.
I was incredibly annoyed, not only did the dick put me into this insane world, but took away the chance to learn the literal life blood of this section of the multiverse,...all robs are Douchebags, confirmed.
"Well anyway, I don't have much for rules except the obvious, if you someday come back, and have some methods of resurrections I don't think I need to state that while you are here that is off limits at all times," Truth stated firmly with an, amazingly for the first time, impassive face,...which actually for whatever reason was creepy.
I nodded to him, "yeah, I kinda assumed that, if you don't allow people from this world using their Portal of Truth to do it, then it just goes double for any outsiders like me," I sighed, as I didn't really have much of a choice les I lose something important.
"Hnhnhn and that's where you're wrong," Truth declared, putting a pompous smile back on,...with no eyes it kinda just faced my direction, which was disorienting to me.
I blinked a few times at that, "...I don't think I follow," what did I say that was wrong, like he isn't watching double time at me part?
"As soon as you enter the universe, you are part of it, you walk on the earth, you interact with other humans, you eat and sleep just as they do, and you build up connections with others, don't you see? The moment you arrived I was already you, as now you are part of everything," it declared, its smile wider than ever before.
My eyes widened,...was that what he meant he was wrong in? I said that I was an outsider, but the truth has stated that I am already part of it, so he can be an outsider because he was already me.
I don't actually know how to feel about this...It kinda felt comforting that I wasn't considered a outsider,...though a bit uncomfortable knowing that God knows everything about me,...although that doesn't actually change anything since pastors always say that "God knows everything".
Buuuut this hits home a LOT harder since we worship a deity that no one can prove its existence other than having faith till the end compared to God sitting directly in front of me, making the saying so much scarier than it was before.
"Hnhnhn while I did enjoy this chat, I believe you must now be on your way, Good bye Asier," Truth said with the ever present amusement oozing out of It.
I blinked at the use of my name, as I never gave it to either of the two beings, but it was to be expected one was literally omnipotent while the other was probably also omnipotent and is me and everything in it.
I heard the loud sound of metal and stone straining as I looked behind me and sure enough, my gate was opening, the gate itself was as big as ever, but unlike literally everyone that came here in the anime, mine had no markings or an image on it, my door remained blank.
I guess it was hard to grasp the secrets of alchemy when you don't even do alchemy in the first place.
As the door opened, I saw the giant silver eye open, which I kinda assumed was Truth's eye though I could be wrong, as several dozens of little arms came and grabbed me.
I didn't resist, as truth did not have a reason to do anything bad, as well as this was literally the only way out, as it brought me into the gate that looked like the void I have initially been in, the last thing I heard was the door shut behind me.
Universe: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Location: Ishval
Date : ?/?/? - 12:00 AM
In the sandy lands of what in the future will be the Southeastern section of Amestris, in the air around 10 feet of the ground a circle of bright light in the symbol of the Human Transmutation circle appeared.
A pinkish substance then appeared on the circle and dipped down by 5 feet and at the bottom tip of it the Body of an 20 year old, pale man fell down towards the ground and roughly landed on it.
Groaning on instinct I got up, and stood up while patting myself off the sand, noticing as well that I barely felt the landing, I chalked it up to Enhanced Durability doing its job right.

SUB-ABILITY
Enhanced Durability
The user's physical durability (ability to resist damage) is extremely high, allowing them to take numerous blows of internal or external assaults before succumbing to the effects. The user can withstand bullets, grenades and low to medium explosives, survive falling from the top of tall buildings and building collapse, withstand beatings from superhumans and take getting beaten with steel rods and bars.
Limitations
Since this ability isn't the same as Invulnerability, the user can only take so much damage before it finally takes an effect. At best, the user will only be stunned by damage that would usually kill ordinary people.
No Other Abilites Currently Available in this Ability Tree at this point in time
P.S. no I did not give you the abilities of a gamer, just something for you to help keep track of your stuff
P.P.S .Also to go deeper into the ability trees in the Sub-Sub abilities you will need to actually train yourself, either by fighting with said ability or by other means you can find.
]
...ok then, I guess I have the skill list...except it literally just lists out what I can do and nothing else, moving on.
Looking around my surroundings,...and from the looks of it, nothing recognizable, as it could be from numerous locations like the desert in between Xing to the land of Ishval.
Hmmm, I have no idea what time period or location Truth or R.O.B., either or both, placed me in,...it would also seem that my "benefactor" changed what I had access to, since I should've had full access to everything in my sub-sub ability,...I better check now rather than later.
"So...uhh, know what, I'm just gonna call it system, System, please show me every ability I currently have access to," I asked, if I'm gonna be stranded in a world with basically info that could be well outdated, as well as the fact that the info is a decade old memory.

"...Hey wait, how come Enhanced Condition is greyed out," I asked the transparent screen, hoping that the Rob is currently watching, for a second there I was worried as there wasn't an answer in quite a while before another screen popped out beside the first one.
[I decided t take it off as Enhanced Durability/Speed/Strength would already do quite nicely, though in exchange I'm giving you Decelerated Aging, have fun with that]
...Well that explains it, while not happy, there wasn't much I can do, at the very least I can't die from aging, that's a plus, continuing onwards, I looked through all of the skills and decided to simply say, "System, open them all".

ABILITY
Feral Mind
User can tap into a primal instinctive state of mind, which can release an unstoppable rage that allows them to perform in vastly increased capacity, taking and inflicting damage that they couldn't or wouldn't in their normal state.

Enhanced Violence
Users are incredibly skilled at harming others, whether intentionally or unintentional. Users have no problem using any means to get their way with others, even if it involves breaking a few bones or leaving some scars. They don't necessarily have to be good at fighting or killing to be violent, however, the intention to harm has to be there, which usually does lead to the deaths or maiming of others.

ABILITY
Lightning Bruiser
They can resist small arms fire, moderate explosions as well as bladed/blunt weapons, can lift and throw vehicles/objects that are of moderate size to begin with, and can outmaneuver bullets and dodge the faster attacks that those of the peak human level won't be able to accomplish. Just like the peak human level, both jack-of-all-stats and this level of lightning bruisers, can both overlap depending on the characteristics.
LIMITATION
Agility
The user might still be susceptible to exhaustion.
Over time, the joints of the user might still become inflamed and arthritic after consistent usage. (Peak Human to Enhanced Level).
Does not necessarily mean they can survive falls from great heights or hard collisions with walls or other solid objects. (Peak Human to Enhanced Level).
Durability
The user can only take so much damage until their durability finally gives way. The user will only be stunned by damage that would normally kill unconditioned subjects. (Peak Human, Enhanced, to Supernatural Level).
Some specific abilities that can bypass their toughness like Telepathy, Absolute Strength, Durability Negation, and some others that might have the same capability, can be counteractive against the user. (Peak Human, Enhanced, to Supernatural Level).
It may be possible that the user would be vulnerable to toughness-altering abilities, like Fortitude Weakening, Density Manipulation or Carbon Manipulation. (Peak Human, Enhanced, to Supernatural Level).

Might still feel agony from the attacks given. (Enhanced, Supernatural, to Absolute Level).
Speed
They are pretty much vulnerable to those that own Speed Cancellation, or even Speed Theft. (Peak Human, Enhanced, to Supernatural Level).
Those of normal to Meta Gravity Manipulation can affect their speed due to altering their body weight. (Peak Human, Enhanced, to Supernatural Level).
Difficulty of breathing would depend on their speed, unless one has Enhanced to Absolute Lung Capacity, or even Oxygen Independence. Carrying a passenger can add to the difficulty as well. (Peak Human, Enhanced, Supernatural, to Absolute Level).
Speed doesn't necessarily mean maneuverability, some users may have problems with inertia, as well as with tight angles. (Peak Human, Enhanced, Supernatural, to Absolute Level).
Weak against those that have either Speed Theft to Immunity. (Peak Human, Enhanced, to Supernatural Level).
The user might go through a range of problems if the user doesn't have Sensorimotor Synchrony. (Peak Human, Enhanced, Supernatural, to Absolute Level).
The user is wouldn't be omnipresent, nor even nigh-omnipresent. (Peak Human, Enhanced, Supernatural, to Absolute Level).
Strength
The user is weak against powers that happen to affect strength, like Strength Absorption, Muscle Mass Weakening, Strength/Muscle Manipulation, Strength Reduction, etc. (Peak Human, Enhanced, to Supernatural Level).
Gravity, mass, as well as balance, still affects the user. (Peak Human, to Enhanced Level).
Can still be affected by Newton's Laws of Motion. (Peak Human, to Enhanced Level).
]
[
ABILITY
Natural Weapon: Powerful Bite
Users have a particularly strong bite, either because of sharp fangs/teeth, strong jaw-muscles, unusual jaw-structure (mandibles of insects, beak, etc.) or some other reason. Exactly what they can bite depends on the jaw-strength, resilience of their teeth/bite-surface and their shape.
Limitation
Jaws/teeth can break on hard substances.
Must be able to bite, making large/flat surfaces a problem.
Teeth/mouth may still be sensitive and may have to be careful not to bite down on anything potentially harmful or dangerous.

Strength of spells may be dependent on strength of magic.
]
[
SUB-ABILITY
Silk Manipulation
User can create, shape and manipulate silk, a natural protein fiber, some forms of which can be woven into textiles. The protein fiber of silk is composed mainly of fibroin and is produced by certain insect larvae to form cocoons. The best-known silk is obtained from the cocoons of the larvae of the mulberry silkworm Bombyx mori reared in captivity (sericulture). The shimmering appearance of silk is due to the triangular prism-like structure of the silk fibre, which allows silk cloth to refract incoming light at different angles, thus producing different colors.
Silk is produced by several insects, but generally only the silk of moth caterpillars has been used for textile manufacturing. There has been some research into other types of silk, which differ at the molecular level. Silk is mainly produced by the larvae of insects undergoing complete metamorphosis, but some adult insects such as webspinners also produce silk, and some insects such as raspy crickets produce silk throughout their lives. Silk production also occurs in Hymenoptera (bees, wasps, and ants), silverfish, mayflies, thrips, leafhoppers, beetles, lacewings, fleas, flies, and midges. Other types of arthropod produce silk, most notably various arachnids such as spiders (see spider silk).
Limitation
Distance, mass, precision, etc. depend upon of the knowledge, skill, and strength of the user.
Construct structural strength may be limited by the user's will.
]
[
SUB-ABILITY
Spell Casting
The user can cast spells, which are formulae for producing specific magic effects. Such formulae are often a series of magic words and incantations, but they can also take the form of specific thoughts, gestures, rituals, etc.
Incorrect pronunciation and word choice of a spell may have negative effects (such as the spell being thrown back at the user, or producing a different effect than expected).
LIMITATION
May require concentration to work.
Certain spells may only work for as long as the caster is alive.
Certain spells may be limited to a specific group of spell casters.
Certain spells may have a negative effect on nature and require a balance to the universe. For instance, if one person is brought back to life, another will die in the process.
More powerful spells may require more magical power (e.g, mana) and training to work.
Untrained novices can easily misuse a spell creating unpredictable results.
Some spells may taint the user's soul and turn them down the path of evil/good, and therefore are best left unknown.
Some spells may simply need to be spoken in reverse to be negated.
Overuse may lead to physical and/or mental damage, temporary/permanent loss of magic or death.
Useless against people with Spell Negation and Spell Immunity.

Depending on the way used to bind the victim, they may be able to overpower/break their bindings.
Users of Teleportation/Intangibility can escape.
]
[
SUB-ABILITY
Concussive Force
Users can deliver impact of concussive force, whether directly or remotely, which can knock the target back and cause internal and external damage. They can achieve this either by direct physical force, solid matter, pulse of energy or any other way that causes damage by collision.
Weak against Blunt Force Immunity.
]
[
SUB-ABILITY
Crushing
The user can crush and objects around them simply by making physical contact with the objects
Useless against Absolute Invulnerability and Flawless Indestructibility.

...That was a lot, and all of this is just something I have immediate Access to at the moment, I am actually grateful some stuff is locked, because I would otherwise be overwhelmed from this information.
I also Grimaced when I saw Feral Mind, sure it gives one HELL of a boost, but it is utterly uncontrollable, what's worse was the fact it can activate automatically depending on my emotional levels, which means I will have to watch myself more carefully.
I'm basically Bruce Banner who just started out with the Hulk, where he has to watch his heart rate, and I already have several ideas how to counter the Feral Mind which is to basically either copy Bruce or build a persona that I will habittly use.
Of course while both of them would be difficult, with former being easilier and the latter actually is what I'm favoring at the moment.
At the moment I'm just gonna leave all this for later, while I'm just gonna…
...when the hell did I start monologuing? I legit just spent the last ten minutes thinking to myself while staring at the transparent screen and I know that never in my life did I think like this...ROB we will be having words about this.
...I could swear I can hear its giggle in the distance, so either I was going Insane or he really was watching,...let's hope for the former as I liked being sane and it being more likely.
Shaking my head, I sighed and I continued my way to what hopefully would be at least a village of not a city.
