His bodies return to it's initial spiritual state now fully complete, aside from one critical component, his physiology no longer suffers from such mortal issues as "dying of blood loss" and "needing months for broken bones to heal.". No instead now he heals within days rather than months, and in absorbing the Qi of the world he has essentially infinite vitality for standard tasks. A cushy position if Joao Jean had ever heard of one, and one he didn't intend to leave any time soon. Even if in doing so he's gained a vulnerability to the celestial judgement of natural lightning, and weapons blessed by the those Shinto Fogeys back in his homeland fuck him up just like he was a mortal but hey. No such thing as a free lunch.


You gain the following benefits at all times.

Any Injury you receive from a source other than Lightning and Shinto Blessed Weapons heals quickly, reducing its Severity by one level each day, starting once it becomes stabilized. Battle Scars caused by your Injuries will remain. Any Injuries you receive stabilize automatically and do not deteriorate further.

You gain the following benefits at all times.

You are permanently and visibly transformed: divine ram. You are considered to be a Sapient, Living Creature when targeted. Your Charisma is increased by 1 and your Intellect is increased by 1.

Your body is adapted to smithing. You receive +3 dice on non-attack rolls related to smithing.

You cannot be mistaken for a normal human. You cannot always use standard human clothes, equipment, vehicles, and facilities, and when you can, you suffer an increased Difficulty.

Freya's internals are incomplete. Her motherboard has space for several other attachments, parts of her limbs are hollow, clearly meant to house additional tools and modules. Currently, all of this sits unused, but Freya is quite literally filled with potential, should she ever have the opportunity to utilize it.

Her body is largely based on a human's, mimicing its needs so that when she was eventually completed and utilized in the field, logistics would not need to build around non-uniform needs. (This is largely false. An exuse employed by Freya's creator to buy herself time to perfect the model's energy systems. Although it led to break throughs in biofuel refining, it was not the end goal.)

The only need Freya does not share with humans is sleep, but she *does* require around eight hours of charging a night. Her battery is capable of lasting longer by entering a progressively more restrictive low power mode, before eventually forcibly locking down and deploying solar panels built into her shoulders. Her prefered method of charging is plugging into her specially crafted charging dock, but in a pinch she can plug straight into a wall or utilize the aforementioned set of collapsible solar panels in her shoulders.

Freya has the ability to record what she hears and play it back freely, thanks to her vocal synthizier. Though, to do so she has to pass a forgetful roll.

She still remembers her old form, with mixed feelings. She can turn back into it, but it's not right. Not anymore. When she returns to her base form, that's not it anymore.

Minerva's form is made of will more than anything else - and she can choose how it is effected. Expressions of energy, heat and cold, have little effect on her if she chooses not to let them. And being made from will, it suffuses her entire body. She isn't stored in the brain any more than she is stored in the foot - She doesn't have a soul, she is a soul. She has a body.
