I got a question for you guys, this'll just be curious guesswork, but what do you guys think about the capabilities and abilities a Lvl 5 of the current (and former) characters would have:
-Demi:
SN. Odd one, but there is a reason lvl 5s are regarded as God's essentially, we can't disregard the non combat oriented.
1. Mind games for her/him, probably a long the lines of Jake moreso than us, obviously at a mass area.
2. I don't know how else I could explain it, perhaps the mind control is more intimate.
SN. Her most was pretty fuckin powerful from what we know, someone else will have to backtrack to research further; I'm too lazy.
Evolutions can change depending on various things. For example, if you desire and train for violence, your powers will be in turn more violent. So, Demi's 5th evo could be a couple different things.
Basically, I went over this in the discord, if Demi was directed towards Mass control, and spreading infection (Basically being used to usurp the will of the population, then controlled by someone above them) then a few things would be helpful. Namely, range, and focus. Having to be near Demi is too limiting so
Evo 2: Infection. People affected by Demi's power gain a 'shard' of it, which can go on to spread it to more people. The shard also will continuously build and focus the re-programming. Demi has managed to work out the "yandere" bug, so this won't backfire. Probably.
Evo 3: Propagation. As before, but now those with a shard will eventually be able to spread and create new shards. This has no real upper limit, and is a smart place to stop. At this point you could keep Demi in a nice hotel, put them on tv once a week, and have them say "Hey earth. Be good. Listen to the PM" and everything will be fine.
Evo 4: Control. Having a cult is nice, but only as useful as your communication network. At Evo 4, Demi can reach out to the shard of Demi in the person's head, to influence them as Demi actively desires. Good for if you want Demi to be able to affect the world and not merely pacify them.
Evo 5: Separation. All of this is to waste if Demi catches a one way ticket to a volcano. So it's not. The 'shards' mentioned above become avenues for rebirth. If Demi's life ends, then their cult will become aware of it and seek to recreate them. After some time passes, they will choose someone new to 'become' Demi, washing out the old psyche, and Demi will rebuild themselves out of the shards. You probably don't want this, because it kind of eliminates your ability to control Demi. The only way to kill them at this point would be to kill all humans. Which, idk, maybe you're okay with that, but there are easier ways to get that done.
Also, In theory at Evo 5 you could isolate Original Demi, create a new Demi, then bring Original Demi back out, but considering their personality, They wouldn't have any kind of aggression or animosity to their duplicate. You'd just have two Demi's going around doing Demi things.
I have other ideas, but this is the 'biggest' idea I can think of that doesn't just change how Demi's powers work.
That said, lmao this isn't Demi's story. No way in hell they're hitting evo 5. They might not even hit evo 2, based on what Ella said (not evolving can lead to stagnation. Demi's had their powers about as long as Ella and is Evo 1)
