Appearance:
A black, pulsating fruit the size of a human fist. Its skin seems to swallow light, with faint red veins that pulse like a heartbeat. When held, it feels almost alive, warm and slightly vibrating.
Blessing:
Consuming it grants absolute reality manipulation for a single hour. You can bend matter, space, or even rewrite small fragments of time. You could turn a stone into gold, stop a fall, or heal a mortal wound with a thought. For one hour, you are essentially a demigod.
Curse:
The curse is inescapably fatal:
1. First bite: Your senses become hyper-aware, pain and pleasure amplified to unbearable levels.
2. Second bite: Time around you begins to distort; seconds stretch to hours and memories bleed into each other.
3. Third bite: Your body starts to decompose and reform constantly—painful, horrifying, and unstoppable.
4. Final bite (finish it): Your soul is irrevocably unanchored. You are erased from the world’s memory as if you never existed, and your body becomes a living void that consumes anything nearby until it vanishes completely.
Legendary Notes:
It is said only the bravest or most desperate beings attempt to eat it.
Myths claim the fruit appears in worlds in turmoil, offering salvation and destruction in equal measure.
Those who survive even one bite are changed forever, haunted by whispers of the void and glimpses of the future that drive most to madness.
Tactical Use:
Absolute power—but only for an hour.
Could be used for world-altering feats, assassinations, or desperate gambits.
But the curse is so overwhelming that even touching it is a risk. Legends say it could drive a god insane.
