new secondary!
Added 2025-07-17 21:26:16 +0000 UTCI totally forgot, when he hits lvl 40, he gets a secondary! He can't upgrade Sourdough any further, so he's gotta pick a new one.
I'll list all the previous choices, then we can add a couple based on the comments to the next selection.
They can be based on Will's class (Resourceful climber), or one of his sacrifices.
INITIAL SACRIFICES:
Gravity goat(degraded), Uru Drake, William Oh.
PHANTOM HAND:
Relic Worm, Fungal Hydra, Dimensional Oyster, Wraith Vessel, Ethereal Metallic Slime.
ASPECT OF THE IMMORTAL SERPENT
Immortal Serpent, Axolotl, Seed of Inexorable Death
SOURDOUGH
Erosion Golem, Meldmonger
Current list:
Uru Breath (minor)
Active: 5 Charges, unleash a blast of space-warping breath, the dimensional ripples cause temporary damage and nausea to those inside the cone. May cause objects to crack or joints to loosen.
Stone Charge
Active: 1 Charge, 20ft range. Coats the user’s body in stone armor and/or propels them forward at lethal speeds.
Venom strike
Active: 1 charge, Add a poison effect to the next attack with a slashing or piercing weapon. Scales with Acuity.
Mighty Leap
Active: 1 Charge, user’s jump distance is tripled for a single jump.
Prey’s Senses
Passive: The User’s field of vision widens, as well as minor improvements to their hearing and smell. Scales with Acuity.
Deceiver’s Molt
Active: 5 charges. Moderate Self-heal. User slips out of their skin and creates a decoy that can perform simple pre-determined actions. The decoy will retain any wounds the user has healed through this Ability.
Titan’s Grasp
Passive: Space and gravity subtly warp around objects the user tries to hold, allowing them to handle objects both larger and smaller than they might’ve otherwise been able to handle, whether that be from cumbersome size or weight.
Progenitor affinity
Passive: Further enhances the natural affinity scaled creatures have towards you.
Stubborn Ass
Passive: User’s Inertia becomes more difficult to change through outside forces, adding force to their attacks and resisting shoves and strikes.
Serpent’s Tongue
Active: 1 Charge
With a vile word of Eternity, extend the duration of debuffs on the target for (Acu/10) Seconds.
Gravity Charge
Active: 1 charge
The user’s personal gravity is oriented in the direction of the target for Resistance seconds. Ethereal horns grow from the user’s skull, and their brain, skull, and neck are strengthened against impact. Scales with Resistance.
Cancelable.
Blood Binding
Active: 20 Charges
Apply your tainted blood to a weapon to imbue it with a fraction of your nature. The weapon will warp fate to always return to you.
On Binding, one Ability will be randomly added based on the User’s Sacrifices. Only one Ability can be bound at a time, To re-roll the random Ability, Cast Blood Binding again.
Uru Drake’s Eye
Passive: Become able to see that which a Uru Drake Progenitor can. Dimensional effects, Charges and miasma become visible to the naked eye.
Serpent’s Gaze
Active: 1 Charge
Inflict (acu/100) seconds of Paralysis on a target you can see the eyes of. Acuity contested by Focus or Resistance, whichever is higher.
Astral Tread
Passive: A small doughnut shaped area of gravity below the user’s hands and feet becomes under the control of the user and can be used to push off of, or pull into objects and surfaces. Can provide a tiny amount of propulsion should the user be outside the range of any solid objects, such as underwater or in outer space.
And that's everything I know of, suggestions welcome!
Comments
This isba great point and maybe we see that in the later levels.

2025-08-05 20:04:03 +0000 UTCTitan’s Grasp has the most synergy with his build if it works with Aspect. Serpent’s Tongue is cool and adds a new element to Will’s powers, with plenty of room for cool upgrades. Stubborn Ass would also be a really good way to shore up Will’s abysmal strength. Blood binding, mighty leap, and venom strike all seem redundant. Nothing there he can’t accomplish through other abilities. Uru Drake’s Eye seems like the best choice to me. It’s basically a passive detect magic for a guy who’s aiming for floors with very little recorded information. Easily lifesaving in a DnD setting. It’s also a qualitative upgrade that doesn’t need a lot of extra work to be good, so it works as a secondary.
