Legacy Power: Timeline Swap

Sometimes, this is the best timeline.

A 1 Gift Disguise Power used by Amaranth Barclay, created by leonvanderblight.

Description

Motivated by his newfound understanding of society, and time itself. Amaranth Barclay has realized a very crucial fact. It is not always wise to be a caveman without any connection to society or the world therein and that it's sometimes better to be someone else. Amaranth didn't understand society very well however, So, Amaranth began to look into the one thing he did know.

Time, and in time there is the theory that whenever you make a choice it branches off and creates an alternate reality. Amaranth can see those realities, and now, his own connections to them and by syncing their temporal states he can take on the appearance he would've had in one of those alternate timelines, and with infinite timelines, well. That could be anyone. Though in exchange, he does have to lend his own face to other timelines occasionally and being synced with leaves him disoriented as if being in two places at once.

System

Exert your mind and spend 1 Minute applying a disguise. You may alter your physical appearance, not including clothes, to one that has a similar sex, weight, age, race, and height. Lasts one hour or until you choose to end the effect.
