	Mythical monsters, these beings are the physical embodiments of mechanisms. When destroyed, those mechanisms cease to function. They do not normally wander the world, but can be called into being by a special disease: Harbinger Dreams. The initial infection of Harbinger Dreams is initiated through the use of a 12 hour ritual that ends in five dead intelligent creatures and 100000 [[copper]] of destroyed chemicals, and only works if the creature to be infected succeeds on both a DC 10 [[Items]] check and a DC 10 [[Supernatural Philosophy]] check. The spirit to be called into being is chosen during the ritual. Mythical monsters leave reality again after 20 days. The following list of mythical monsters is not intended to be comprehensive.

	~~=== Useless Skills ===~~

	Players can invent new, overly specific and generally insignificant skills to give to their characters, like Basketweaving or Double Backflips. If the DM deems the skill sufficiently useless, the character gets a bonus to their skill checks equal to 50% of the modifier they would otherwise have in that skill, rounded up. ''For example, if Porcine Secundus had 32 skill points in Make Stick Houses, he'd roll 1d10+8 for checks with it, rather than 1d10+5.''

	==== Mythic Powers ====		==== Mythic Powers ====

	Mythic powers are ~~unique customized powers designed specifically for~~ each ~~individual~~. ~~The cost for~~ a ~~Mythic Power is equal~~ to the ~~total cost of its Trigger multiplied by~~ the ~~total cost of all its Effects. If a set of options~~ is ~~listed in parentheses, choose one upon power creation~~.		Mythic powers are abilities of immense power, each one requires that you invest some number of mythic power ranks in it. If you want a custom, unique ability, you are encouraged to discuss it with the DM, and the DM is encouraged to allow it.

	~~===== Trigger =====~~		'''Super-Speed''' (1 rank): Your speeds double. This mythic power can be taken multiple times.

	'''~~Explosion (Cost: 3):~~''' ~~As a [[standard action]], make an attack against~~ (~~[[AD]] or [[GD]]~~) ~~on each creature and unattended object in a 20 meter radius [[blast]] centered on a point~~ you can ~~see within 300 meters~~.		'''Master Hurler''' (1 rank): Whenever you would fling anything, you can fling it twice as far. This mythic power can be taken multiple times.

	'''~~Burst (Cost: 3):~~''' ~~As a [[standard action]], make an attack against~~ (~~[[AD]] or [[GD]]~~) ~~on each other creature and unattended object in~~ a ~~40 meter radius [[blast]] centered on~~ you.		'''Unsensable''' (2 ranks): Choose a sense: you cannot be detected by that sense. This mythic power can be taken multiple times, but each additional instance requires twice as many mythic power ranks as the last.

	'''~~Beam~~ (~~Cost~~: 3):~~''' As~~ a ~~[[standard action]]~~, ~~make an attack against ([[AD]]~~ or ~~[[GD]]) on each creature~~ and ~~unattended object in~~ a ~~6 meter wide~~, ~~200 meter long, cylindrical [[spray]] starting from you~~.		'''Perfect Gem Affinity''' (2 ranks): Choose a color: you can cast any spell you know which only uses that color without requiring a gem of that color, or that spell to be attuned to a gem at all. This mythic power can be taken multiple times, and if a spell requires multiple colors but you have Perfect Gem Affinity for all those colors, that spell also no longer needs a gem.

	'''~~Speak to Individual~~ (~~Cost: 2~~):~~''' As a~~ [[~~standard action~~]], ~~one creature who can hear~~ you ~~within 300 meters must make a~~ [[~~Will Save~~]].		'''Regeneration''' (4 ranks): At the end of your turn, you regain 1 [[HP]]. If this heals you to 0 [[HP]] or above, you are cured of the [[Dead]] and [[Unconscious]] conditions.

	'''~~Speak to Everyone~~ (~~Cost: 6~~):~~''' As~~ a [[~~standard action~~]]~~, each other creature who~~ can ~~hear~~ you ~~within 300 meters must make a [[Will Save]]~~.		'''Status Immunity''' (2 ranks): Choose a [[status effects\|status effect]]. That status effect can't be inflicted on you. This mythic power can be taken multiple times.

	~~===== Effect =====~~		'''Damage Immunity''' (2 ranks): Choose a damage type. You can't be damaged by damage of that type. This mythic power can be taken multiple times.

	'''~~Damage~~ (~~Cost:~~ 3):~~''' If you made an attack against~~ [[AD]] ~~in the Trigger and hit, deal (1d6+2, 1d8+1, or 1d10) damage~~.		'''Divine Aura''' (3 ranks): Your [[Faint Aura]] doubles. This mythic power can be taken multiple times.

	'''~~Automatic Wound~~ (~~Cost: 8~~):~~''' If you made an attack against~~ [[AD]] ~~in the Trigger and hit, deal~~ (~~1d6+2, 1d8+1,~~ or ~~1d10 damage~~.		'''Absolute Presence''' (6 ranks): Any creature that enters your [[Strong Aura]] (whether by its own movement or not) must make a Will save or be [[paralyzed]] until it leaves your [[Strong Aura]].

	'''~~Brain Damage~~ (~~Cost: 3~~):~~''' If a target made~~ a [[~~Will Save~~]] ~~in the Trigger and failed, deal (1d4+3, 1d6+2, or 1d8+1) damage~~.		'''Borrow Time''' (2 ranks): As an [[immediate action]], you can take a [[standard action]]. You cannot use this ability again until you take two [[standard action\|standard actions]] to recharge it.

	'''~~Warp~~ (~~Cost: 3~~):~~'''~~ You ~~may teleport to within reach of anything targeted in the Trigger~~.		'''Quicken Common Spell''' (1 rank): You can cast any Common-tier spell as a [[minor action]].

	~~===== Effect Modifiers =====~~		'''Quicken Elite Spell''' (2 ranks, requires Quicken Common Spell): You can cast any Elite-tier spell as a [[minor action]].

	~~These are added to individual effects~~.		'''Quicken Paragon Spell''' (4 ranks, requires Quicken Elite Spell): You can cast any Paragon-tier spell as a [[minor action]].

	'''~~Status Effect on Wound (Cost: 2):~~''' ~~If you wound a target with the effect, the target~~ (~~becomes [[prone]]~~, ~~is lit~~ [[~~on fire~~]], ~~is [[blind\|blinded]]~~ for ~~2 rounds~~, ~~is [[stunned]] until~~ the ~~end of the current turn~~, ~~falls [[asleep]]~~ and ~~doesn~~'~~t wake up until it~~'~~s wounded again, is [[shriveled]] for~~ 1 ~~minute~~, ~~is [[tired]]~~ for ~~3 rounds~~, ~~or is [[chilled]]~~ for ~~3 rounds)~~.		'''Quicken Legend Spell''' (8 ranks, requires Quicken Paragon Spell): You can cast any Legend-tier spell as a [[minor action]].

			'''Mythic Magic''' (1 rank): You gain two Mythic tier charges. They take 24 days to recharge. You learn two Boosts, such that for each Boost, applying it and no other makes the spell you learned it for Mythic tier.

			'''God Magic''' (3 ranks): You gain three God tier charges. They take 96 days to recharge. You learn three Boosts, such that for each Boost, applying it and no other makes the spell you learned it for God tier.
