I have a concept for a character who, at his maximum potential, is very similar to One-Above-All. I'll be using him in a custom setting I'll be playing in and actually be playing this character (I'm not much of a GM) so I need to develop a few ideas for the sake of starting him off. To give you some backstory, in this universe, there were The Ones Who Came Before, living representations of Time, Matter, and Energy. Before the universe was born, they existed as a single being, separating with the expansion of the universe and scattering with the stars. My character, the master of energy, takes a new form on Earth shortly before the advent of the Manhattan Project. Having been reincarnated, he now has no memory but the campaign will, among other things, follow him as he regains his memories and rejoins with the other two avatars to once again become whole and become the living representation of reality. Endgame, his abilities will grant him power over what I can only refer to as quantum fundamental forces. In quantum physics, there are four such forces:
-Electromagnetic force
This force gives matter shape, hardness, and strength being the force existing between two charged objects. All chemical phenomena and particle movement are made possible by this force. By emitting radiation, electromagnetic fields allow radio waves, microwaves, infrared, ultraviolet light, X-rays, gamma rays, and visible light to move in free space, visible light existing as an electromagnetic radiation field
-Weak nuclear force
This force controls the emission and absorption of neutrinos to particles, causing them to decay and dictating particle half-life
-Strong nuclear force
This force holds particles together in atomic nuclei, maintaining the field of orbit for protons, electrons, and other similar particles.
-Gravity
This force, unlike the others, has not yet been seen to exist at the atomic level where the others do but rather on a much larger scale across the known universe. The only known force to divert light, either bending it or slowing it down, gravity exists only in the presence of matter. It is theorized to be linked to space-time and quantum entanglement (to summarize, quantum particle connections can exists at extreme distances across the universe or between dimensions, causing particles to act in opposite unison, spinning in opposite directions, switching their orbits in unison and mirroring each other in various other ways), creating the tunnels between black holes and reverse entangled universes. In short, this theory indicates that gravity may well be responsibly for the time, the dimensions, and the very fabric of space itself
With that in mind, this character would begin with energy based powers. Due to his very recent reincarnation, he would have only baser level usage of such powers. He has no memory of what he actually is and by the time the game starts, he has only been on Earth for 15 years. In this time he has been unable to learn speech and absorbing all the energy wherever he is at the time. Electricity, wind, kinetic, heat, and so on, all disappear with his presence and return only upon his departure, though organic matter currently seems immune to these effects. When the game actually begins, this absorption ceases, his body having gathered enough power to begin rejuvenating his quantum capabilities, and his first powers resurface.
Now, as I said, he doesn't speak and he essentially becomes, with the assimilation of the avatars of Time and Matter, the universe itself. In all forms, reality is his weapon, his greatest weakness being magic, in all it's forms. Magic, in this campaign, is the very opposite of reality and, of course, his nemesis is the most powerful magic user the universe has ever or will ever know (but that's another character for another time). My character is neither human nor mutant, and though he doesn't know fear or the majority of other human emotions, he is a recluse. When he manifested on Earth, it was noticed worldwide and as such he is a constant target.
So, that's my concept and I could really use some help because we'll be using a 40 stone (+challenges, etc) write-up and even though he will eventually become super OP he needs to start on the same level as the other players and I've not had much luck with him. I was considering a custom mastery for him, like Mastery of Quantum Forces and only allow him access to the energy side to begin with but I'm not sure how to do that without creating an action that will cost me 30 stones, especially since his energy based existence would grant him a massive energy pool at any stage of his rejuvenation. I have a ton more information to go with this concept and would be more than happy to provide more if necessary but any assistance with this character would be greatly appreciated
