I know that aside from generic first jump there is generic virgin jump and there is supposed to be one more that when taken in order lets you get everything added to your body mod. What was the 3rd jump?
The powers I am referring to are Intuitive Aptitude from Heroes and Shaper from Worm. Recently I was reading a beat em up fanfic where the MC considers getting these powers and it made me think more about their use. For those that don't know, the premise of a BEU fic is that a person in a setting is given a system that lets them travel anywhere in the omniverse and literally beat up a character for a full copy of their powers, skills, knowledge and abilities. You first target someone from the world you want and you arrive close to them while they are in a condition to defend themselves but as long as they concede defeat you get their abilities, so it should be easy to get amy's power and as long as you can get shaper it makes getting IA easier as it just takes a touch to beat almost anyone. Depending on the author you don't have to leave the world immediately so then you can just stay in heroes for a bit to gain powers. Anyway, here is intuitive aptitude.
Intuitive Aptitude
Intuitive Aptitude(-1200)(No Discount)(Hunger Mandatory): Intuitive Aptitude is the power of understanding, the power to look at things and immediately see how they work, understand their mechanisms, and replicate them if necessary. In the case of Sylar this meant he could see the brain patterns in other Evolved Humans and replicate them to add their powers to his arsenal, but it can also do so much more, allowing you to memorise and recreate great feats of mechanical engineering with meer glances at the outer shells of devices, or even recreate biological based powers by seeing the genetic makeup of them. If the powers you’re attempting to copy are based on something other than the brain, such as DNA then you’ll have to view that instead, but if it’s something spiritual or supernatural, then as long as it doesn’t require power you don’t have then you could probably do it as long as you get a good look at this supernatural source somehow, and it doesn’t have any other outside requirements.
And the mandatory drawback:
Hunger(-600)(Mandatory with Intuitive Aptitude): You are hungry, specifically for the brains of other Evo’s, and more specifically so that you can better understand how your powers work and to gain greater understanding of what is affecting you. Whether or not this will actually benefit you is up in the air, and at best you’ll be able to hold off for a couple of weeks before needing to hunt another Evolved Human. If you spend too much time without doing so, your personality may be subject to bizarre changes that are the complete opposite of your original personality.
The thing about the drawback as well is that if you had shaper you don't need to kill anyone just with shaper at it's base a single touch is all you need to know everything about them biologically, and IA will be able to recreate their power damn near instantly. Sylar from the show needed to cut open their skulls and study their brain because he didn't have a way to know what was happening in their brain otherwise, and his victims died due to that but Claire with her regeneration was able to stay alive through this process and once he figured out her power he put her skull back on and let her heal.
Later on we also see that he doesn't even need to do that to learn someone's powers, if he is able to understand them as a person and also their power and how it works he can gain it for himself, after all he doesn't have biokinesis but he is still able to replicate powers from staring at a dead brain so he is not that limited, as stated in the power as long as you are a part of the power system you can learn, copy and develop damn near anything.
IA is so good that within seconds of getting someone's powers sylar was able to use it just as well as them, and within minutes use it better than them. Not make it more powerful because in the show powers are not able to get stronger their users are just able to use it better. But in Jumps where powers can get stronger you will be able to get their quicker. This power helps you understand everything from the fundamental layer up. Did you learn a single spell from a magic system, IA will let you understand everything about that spell and then let you start understanding the magic system that lets this spell exist, letting you use the fundamental knowledge to create new spells from just understanding that one spell and then start over and snowball your way to mastering the whole magic system.
IA also gets better knowing. Before sylar understood he had powers he was a watchmaker which IA helped understand watches at such a level that with his experience just by hearing the ticking from someone's wristwatch while have NO enhanced senses he was able to know precisely how it worked and what was wrong with it because IA helped him understand watches and clocks. It was shown in a alternate future that sylar no longer had his hunger to understand powers and it is speculated that this is because by that time he had studied enough evolved brains that he understood them well enough that just seeing someone's powers he was able to figure it out and replicate it, no longer having the hunger because he already understood powers on a fundamental level the same way he does clocks.
LIMITATIONS:
You do need your senses to at least begin to understand the phenomena you want to, hence sylar at the beginning needing his eyes to see the brain before he figured out he can just talk to the person and understand them and their power to replicate it. This is where Shaper helps as with just a touch you get all the information you need, letting you do in seconds what sylar needed minutes to do.
This limitation comes from the notes of the jump and is a nerf imposed by the creator for power balancing for jumpchain:
If it’s not from this universe then copying powers with Intuitive Aptitude will only be possible one at a time, and may take minutes to change between, and depending on how much it changes the physical body, may even be completely impossible, however with time you could easily get better at switching between powers. That being said if it is based on the brain these drawbacks don’t apply.
For that limitation with a self biokinesis power and a perk that lets you train your powers you can overcome that.
Shaper
For shaper everyone pretty much knows it as panacea's power from worm or they saw it on the Worm V1 CYOA. Even if you just get amy's power which means it doesn't work on yourself and requires touch, as well as the fact it does not produce biomass it is still an OP power.
For combat, a single touch and you can knock some unconscious or just turn of their brain, killing them. The fixes for the limitations are also not hard to come by. For instance you can get a jailbroken version in a couple of the worm jumps where you would be able to pay to have it work at range or on yourself as well or have it generate biomass. Or you could just by the Worm V1 CYOA version or by amy's version and use and uncapper and train it up to have those features.
The possibilities are damn near endless. Just arrived in invincible as a half viltramite on par with mark? Then get in range of nolan and make yourself just as powerful. Anissa and Conquest coming at you? You can knock them out or kill them as soon as they are in range and you can pick apart any bits of their biology and adaptations they have that nolan didn't and add that to your body as well. Just met thragg? as soon as he is in range you can become just as powerful. Actually even without meeting any of them just being half viltramite would be enough for you to use shaper and keep advancing and evolving yourself till you are more powerful. You can even remove biological weaknesses.
Going to Marvel or DC, any and all biological powers are yours for the taking and any biological beings life is yours to do what you please regardless of how powerful they are. Going to the Last of Us, getting close enough to the fungus lets you make an air borne virus that will spread across the world and kill it, damn near the same for every zombie jump. Go to young justice? the Flashes powers come from a super formula not the speed force, get close enough and then you can just alter your self to get FTL speeds. And for everything mentioned you can literally make these powers grow on trees. Create a tree that bears fruit that turns humans into kryptonians, fruits that give you any and every power and more.
What do you guys think?
So I have heard of fate and come across it and fanfics and stuff on the internet but had no real true understanding of it. Recently I watched season 1 of Fate Strange Fake and just started Fate Zero but I had some questions about things I can buy in jump docs.
So the first one is the Gates of Babylon, I know of the one in Valeria's Oasis of Fantasy Jump and that one updates it to get everything made by humans going forward and also makes it so that things eventually respawn back, however consumables are the exception in that they do not respawn when used. Do you know another version that does this but also allows you to respawn consumables of if there is just a better version you know of.
Another thing I am interested in is getting the ability to summon servants as a power/ability. I know there is the gatcha game FGO where you play as a master and can just summon a bunch of servants to aid you as well as different versions of summons. I want to know if there is any power that would let me do the same, like I am facing someone and I can just summon berserker Hercules and dismiss him when its done, or be able to summon saber arturia and her alter version to fight for me and dismiss them when the fight it over kinda like Curse Manipulation in JJK.
I give you the Generic Potential Man Jump.
It's the first jump I've ever made so I can't say much for the quality so please let me know what you think, what you like, what you don't like etc.
I am happy with the Curse Technique Power Customization section though, even if you can tell by last few names in that section I was getting tired.
Anyway here is the pdf, and btw since this is my first jump does anyone know the procedure for getting it on the drive?

I am thinking about trying to make my first jump doc based on an idea I had a while ago having been inspired by sin-god's kryptonian villain jump. It's a Generic Potential Man jump where you will be inserted as potential man himself, Megumi, either being inserted as him or replacing him as toji's son and the default start time will be the day gojo comes to find him with jumper awakening the 10 shadows that morning when you start the jump giving you some choices as to what to do. The back ground choices are not needed to be chosen and are used to make some changes to the setting like a zenin background that makes it so that gojo will have something come up but you instead meet toji's brother where you will be given the choice to join the zenin clan.
The perks would be supermarket style with certain discounts per price tier and maybe tokens like other supermarket style jumps, and will be based around the theme of the potential man meme as well as some of the fanfics that use megumi as a MC, while still being useful for future jumps.
The power section will just be different add ons you can purchase to make some alterations to the 10 shadows to give it more utility or power or whatever route you want to go since you get the 10 shadows for free by being inserted into megumi. I might offer Shrine as well since megkuna was a thing but I am not sure.
Anyway if you would be interested in this jump please suggest some perks you would like to see that suits the theme and I will see if I can incorporate them. Also If you have any add ons for the 10 shadows technique please suggest them as well as what price you think they should be, I have Ideas as well but the pricing of them I am not to sure of.
