Razor, a lightning whip-wielding guy who can steal the damage of his enemies. Back in the game if you let this guy go long enough he'd steal all of your damage and leave you powerless while he one-shots you. He can also manipulate lightning and summon a storm to obliterate anyone caught near him. Pretty good, but Michael doubted any fights he had with other gods would allow him to steal much.

Storm Spirit, the one thing Michael remembered about this guy was how fat and disgusting his old model used to be... They changed it thankfully, so he'd stopped getting stomped by someone who looked like an Otaku neckbeard... His abilities were all pretty 'good', but his most powerful would obviously be Ball Lightning, which allowed him to turn into a, well, a ball of lightning, and travel around wherever he wanted at ridiculous speeds. He was invulnerable during this, and the only problem was the high mana usage... There was also his passive ability that made his attacks electrify enemies after every cast spell. Pretty good.

Void Spirit, whether or not this hero was able to use Void magic like Tiffania, Michael didn't know. His actual abilities themselves were pretty 'meh', but the possibility of understanding more about 'Void' was pretty seductive. A big maybe.

Weaver, a space bug that could reverse time for itself whenever damaged, strike twice with one attack, summon a swarm of bug-creatures, and move at ridiculous speeds while invisible... Unfortunately, Michael felt that if he ever required Time Lapse, the time reverse ability, then he was probably better off picking another hero entirely. The double attacks were nice but not enough to justify choosing this.

Zeus, the God of thunder... Michael also remembered his mythical counterpart raping people while transformed as animals but that was neither here nor there. In the game, Zeus was all about smiting people, Arc Lightning, Lightning Bolt, Static Field, and Thundergod's Wrath. Michael recalled more than one instance where he'd been one shot in his spawn by an overfed Zeus... Indeed, every time he respawned he died again, eventually making him receive punishment for 'going afk'... That was some bull shit. Very good.

All in all, a tough decision, especially since he had to pick two out of the lot. The heroes all being god-ranked only made the stakes higher. Truly, he was struggling to make a decision... It felt like he was choosing which kidney he wanted to be taken.

After some thought, he did narrow the list down... Bane, Doom, Leshrac, Morphling, Outworld Destroyer, Phoenix, Zeus.

All of them had huge potential and could give him the edge in any godly fight he'd find himself in...

Well, first, he simply couldn't pass up infinite mana, especially since he'd just taken the Medusa spirit which gave him a shield that used mana to absorb damage. His first pick is Outworld Destroyer.

Additionally... He couldn't pass up being able to throw an octillion nuclear warheads directly in someone's face. So Phoenix is his second pick.

With that selected, flips through the book to check out the Spirit's status;

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Spirit : Medusa

Level : MAX

Abilities :

Unbeautiful Serpent (Rank 4) : User can speak with and command any snake or serpent they find, the results will depend on the intelligence of the target.

Split Shot (Rank 4) : Allows user to fire many arrows at once, these will home in on their designated target and are guaranteed to hit.

Mystic Snake (Rank 4) : Fires a magical snake that bounces between enemies, dealing damage and stelaing mana from those it hits.

Mana Shield (Rank 4) : Allows user to summon a shield of mana that drains an equivalent amount of mana to block attacks.

Stone Gaze (Rank 4) : User's eyes can now turn enemies to stone with a glance, targets must see user's eyes to work. The effectiveness of this depends on the difference of power between user and the target.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, he got exactly what he asked for, the Mana Shield would be amazing, Split Shot and Mystic Snake less so... Stone Gaze was strong however, making him sure that he'd picked the correct choice.

As for [Unbeautiful Serpent]? He couldn't think of any creature he'd rather control than just simply kill. Not in the Elder Scrolls universe at least...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Spirit : Phoenix

Level : MAX

Abilities :

Life-Gifting-Light (Rank 4) : User can decide whether his spells harm or heal those struck by them. Effectiveness depends on the power of the spell and rank of this ability.

Icarus Dive (Rank 4) : User manifests burning wings and flies, leaving behind a large burning trail that incinerates enemies and rejuvenates allies.

Fire Spirits (Rank 4) : Summons small bird-like fire spirits that launch themselves at enemies and explode, covering them in caustic sticky flames that slow and deal damage for a duration.

Sun Ray (Rank 4) : Unleashes a huge beam of solar energy that harms enemies and heals allies. Requires both hands to use, power is determined by user's Strength and intelligence.

Supernova (Rank 4) : Whenever User dies he transforms into a Supernova for a duration, once it collapses User is reborn in perfect health. The Supernova can be destroyed before completion to kill User. User can activate this by ending his life.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yep, this was fucking broken. Michael was already unkillable, so adding Supernova on top of that was stupidly effective. Plus, he'd not become more corrupted by the Dead God's influence if this activated instead.

The ability to choose who his spells harm was a huge deal too, he'd never again have to be worried about collateral damage... At least, not by his spells directly affecting his allies. He was sure destroying the planet or unleashing an earthquake would still cause trouble.

Icarus dive was also fantastic, combining it with Lina's Convection and Winter Wyvern's Arctic Burn frost wings would probably have interesting results... Combining Frost and Flame wings? He had no idea what would happen... Come to think about it, couldn't he just fly without them now anyway though?
