Name of Talent: Abstract Reality
Concept: When within active effect, the area centric around Leon himself will pull those nearby within his own psyche; encasing those near enough within a dome of a sort of alternate reality in accordance to what he wills it to be. This specific area within his mind is often a deepened representation of his psyche, and reflects his innermost thoughts and troubles; capable of shifting to accommodate more settling themes and interactions, though often offering a wide array and display of somewhat disturbing images by default, as a result of all of the things that he has seen and experienced throughout his life thus far- though unless his mentality is substantially fractured at a given time, the land within the dome will be capable of being forged and manipulated rather freely, as he sees fit, and its inhabitants and surroundings alike could easily shift within a blink of an eye at almost any given time, for the most part.
Although the dome and its lands altogether are technically parts of Leon's own mind, all interactions within are legitimate, meaning that - in the event that combat ensues for whatever reason within the dome while it remains active - all wounds that they suffer would carry over into reality, and would be instantaneously afflicted all at once the moment that their physical body is taken out of the affected area around Leon, or until his Abstract Reality had been deactivated, altogether. Naturally, such a fact would apply to him, as well.
Extra(s):
• With Leon as the central point of the dome of influence, he can control the area of effect around that causes others to become encased within his mind. The range maxes out at a 9 ft (~2.7 m) radius from his physical body.
• Within his Abstract Reality, he remains capable of shifting his outward appearance, and often uses it to take the appearance of how he looked during the Ancient War.
Positive Mechanics:
• The world within his mind is more or less easily manipulated, and could be forged as he sees fit; be it by structural layout alone, or perhaps even other forms such as creatures and other organisms.
• By virtue of the world within his mind being his to command and forge, extensive elemental manipulation - with the exception of water, due to his phoenix lineage - is also capable of being used by him so long as he remains within his Abstract Reality.
• Illusions are a big thing within his Abstract Reality, and could easily be used to deceive those who find themselves within it as a means of distraction; be it within a harmless endeavor, or for something much more serious and prominent.
• As far as the psyche of others go, this could - in some way - actually prove to be rather beneficial and therapeutic when utilized properly. Seeing as though virtually all scenarios and scenery is his for the making, Leon could create a type of environment that could help calm another down, or give them some degree of solace, just as easily as he could forge another that could prove to scar them for a fair while, if not for life.
• As a branch off of being capable of manipulating the aspects of the given world that he imagines at a time, weaponry formation is also enabled for him, and could be leveraged for those caught within his world in the event that he passes off the forms that he makes off to them to wield.
Negative Mechanics:
• While active, Leon and all else who inhabits his Abstract Reality at a given time will be physically stagnant. They are free to move and interact as they please as far as the world within his mind goes, but in regards to legitimate reality, he and they will enter a trance that could very well render them exceedingly vulnerable to the world around them until his Abstract Reality is no longer in effect by sole virtue of time being ongoing within legitimate reality, altogether.
• Without a proper grasp of his own, personal psyche - both prior to and during the activation of his Abstract Reality - Leon could lose control of his jurisdiction over his talent while he remains within. Should this happen, it would both physically and mentally strain him; causing the environment within his mind to grow rampant, and to possibly lash against him.
• Duration of activation, and the amount of customized forms within his Abstract Reality - as well as the complexity of said forms - drain him of more energy. Pushing himself is the main way to expand his boundaries, but if he pushes himself exceedingly far, his body may give out, and he may actually pass out in legitimate reality if he strains himself for too long.
