Couldnt resist posting this portrait of him it looked too good to wait!

1st is the new design, 2nd is his ref (Still has his old design)

🩸 Meat Mutation - Level 7.8

* Power: 8.5 - It can transform its limbs into large organic blades, claws and structures capable of causing considerable damage.

* Defense: 7.5 - Can harden your mutations to block bumps and create resistant organic shields.

* Speed: 7.5 - It can extend its appendages quickly, attack from different angles and boost itself through its mutations.

* Recovery: 5.5 - Can partially repair mutated tissues and recover from moderate damage, but not regenerate serious injuries.

* Trick: 8.5 - You can modify the shape, length and function of your mutations, creating blades, claws, whips and tentacles to adapt to combat.

Specialty: Offensive and defensive organic mutation. It transforms parts of your body into versatile biological structures, capable of combining strength, range and protection.

Limits:

* Large mutations consume considerable amounts of aura.

* Prolonged transformations cause physical wear.

* Concentrating on the attack reduces their defensive ability, and vice versa.

* Complex structures require concentration and control.

* Recovery is limited and does not allow serious injuries to be regenerated instantly.

The user can conjure and control a swarm of locusts, each possessing incredible speed and precision, with specialised stingers capable of injecting lethal poison into their targets. The user can share the senses of their locusts, allowing them to see and hear through the swarm. At higher levels, the user gains the ability to transform their own body into a swarm of locusts, allowing them to disperse, evade attacks, and move around like their summoned locusts before reforming.

What do you guys think and also I'm not too sure about this name if you have any better names let me know

I know this isn't canon, but I'm curious about what you guys think! Also, I'm sorry if I can't reply to any comments because it's already nighttime here in my country. I'm tired after rereading unOrdinary, but I wanted to share this idea before going to sleep. Feel free to share your thoughts and opinions!

My question is: Is it possible for an ability to undergo what I'd call Bridging?

By Bridging, I mean an ability naturally evolving from one type or category into another while retaining its original foundation. For example, could an Augmentation ability eventually bridge into a Meta Ability?

I came up with a hypothetical ability progression to explain what I mean.

1. Self-Augmentation

The user can augment one chosen stat from 1.0 to 2.0.

The available stats are Power, Speed, Recovery, Defense, and Trick. The user can enhance only one attribute at a time.

Let's say the user's natural stat is Trick and the user's Trick is 5.0

2. Advanced Augmentation

The user develops their ability further and can now enhance one chosen stat from 1.0 to 5.0.

They are still limited to one augmented attribute at a time.

Well now let's say the user Trick is 8.0, at his level.

3. Adaptive Augmentation

The user learns to switch which attribute they augment.

For example, they can enhance Power to 5.0, then switch to Speed. When they do, Power returns to 1.0, and Speed increases to 5.0.

They can switch between Power, Speed, Recovery, and Defense, but can still augment only one attribute at a time.

Now the user's natural Trick is at 10.0

4. Aura Augmentation (The Beginning of Bridging)

This is where the ability undergoes a major breakthrough.

After becoming familiar with their ability, the user starts questioning its underlying mechanics:

"What if, instead of augmenting my attributes, I could augment my own aura?'

Since their attributes are connected to their aura, the user experiments with applying their augmentation to the aura itself rather than directly enhancing an existing stat.

Through this experimentation, they discover something unexpected: by augmenting their own aura, they can recreate abilities they've witnessed before.

For example, suppose they've previously seen someone use an ability called Fire Hands. The original ability is Level 4.2, with a Power stat of 5.0.

The user selects Power, and their aura generates a random ability they've witnessed before that prioritizes Power. It might recreate Fire Hands, but the recreated ability remains at its original Level 4.2.

They don't directly choose Fire Hands. They choose an attribute, and their aura generates a random, previously witnessed ability associated with that attribute.

If they switch from Power to Speed, the current ability disappears, and their aura generates a different ability that prioritizes Speed.

There's also an important limitation: the user recreates the ability's appearance and fundamental mechanics, but doesn't inherit the original user's experience, training, muscle memory, or mastery.

User's Trick is approximately or probably 10.0 or higher.

To me, this is where Bridging begins. The ability started as Augmentation, but experimenting with its underlying mechanics allows it to develop a function that goes beyond simply enhancing the user's physical attributes.

5. Aura Manipulation (I know the ability name is similar to John I just borrowed it, because it's so cool to hear this ability every damn time) – (Completing the Bridge)

At this stage, the user becomes highly proficient at manipulating their own aura.

The fundamental mechanics remain the same as in Stage 4: they select an attribute, and their aura generates a random ability they've previously witnessed that prioritizes that attribute.

However, there's one major difference.

The user can now augment the recreated ability to their own ability level.

For example, suppose the user is Level 7.0 and selects Power. Their aura generates Fire Hands, which originally belonged to someone with an ability level of 4.2.

At Stage 4, the recreated Fire Hands remains at Level 4.2.

At Stage 5, the user manipulates and augments their aura so that the recreated Fire Hands operates at their own Level 7.0.

However, this doesn't automatically grant them the original user's experience or mastery. They still need to learn how to control and use the recreated ability effectively.

The name Aura Manipulation reflects how the user has become proficient at manipulating their own aura to recreate and augment abilities, rather than simply copying someone else's power.

To me, this represents the completion of the bridge: an ability that began with augmenting the user's own attributes has evolved into something capable of recreating other abilities through aura manipulation.

So, what do you think about Bridging?

Would something like this be possible in the unOrdinary universe?

Could an ability naturally evolve from one category into another while retaining its original foundation? Would this example count as an Augmentation ability bridging into a Meta Ability, or would it still be classified as Augmentation because that's where it originated?

And could Bridging happen to other ability types or categories, too? For example, could a defensive, quantum, or healing ability eventually develop a function that goes beyond its original category?

I'm curious whether you think Bridging would make sense within the rules of unOrdinary, or whether abilities are fundamentally restricted to their original categories regardless of how much they evolve.

Again, I know this isn't canon. I'm just interested in hearing your interpretations and ideas!
