    This free gravel, can I summon it whenever and wherever I want, or do I have to wait for it to be delivered? If it’s the latter, I will take Khitan. Resurrecting a dead language sounds fun.

    Easy, free gravel. Become a gravel salesman.

    Would be interesting to see how it appears though. Can I get to just point to a spot and suddenly gravel? If so, charge people for the show too. Just rock up to their house, point at the driveway and boom, gravel. Easy money.

    Added bonus: don’t like someone? Boom, house literally full of gravel.

    Gravel.

      Just says that the gravel is free, not that you can generate it or make it appear. You’ve got a lifetime supply of gravel from suppliers but you still gotta move it around

        Built a greenhouse with a gravel foundation this summer. Doesn’t matter if I have to move it. Free gravel is useful.

        What if it can’t change to paid gravel? Like you try to sell it and people are like if it was free I’d take it, but I won’t pay for that.

        Still a free product. Normally gravel traders have to purchase the gravel, move it and sell it. Now you just have to move and sell it. Massive profits. Transport fees are for the customer too, so basically free as well.

      If you look inside (even using magic ability), it will be predicted and then it will be empty. It will be even harder for you not to look.

    Toss up between 3 and 7 for me, though the gravel one could have some niche uses.

    TP can be abused pretty easy if there’s no physical impact on my body for doing it repeatedly.

        There’s nothing about not being able to use the power over and over again either immediately after you use it or after a less than 10 hour delay. Just repeatably spam the power to reverse your age.

      I was going to say, 3 is my choice. Subtly powerful and useful. Just have to be creative, even if it isn’t actually that much faster

      I’m playing a Pathfinder game where my character has something roughly resembling this ability, and so far it has allowed my party to essentially skip a few fights.

        So curious about any funny stories. Like tried to get on the other side of a wall but you’re skinniest character is 7.5 inches at the chest so their scapula gets stuck in some thatched wall so now they look like some kind of hay Angel.

          Nah, my character has Mirror’s Reflection. So I can get through any window just by duplicating and then un-duplicating myself. I’ve skipped trays that way and opened doors for my group using it.

          Worst thing that’s happened is a triggered a monster that one-shot me. From my team’s perspective I tried to duplicate through a window and instead just fell down unconscious. If I’d rolled better initiative I could’ve seen it and un-duplicated before it had a chance to do anything.

    1. Open franchise that sells toast bread. Burn all toasters in the world that are not used in your chain. Raise prices to ridiculous amounts. Build a big toaster rocket. Fly away.

      Given that “Internet of Things” devices like smart toasters can be used as targets/jumping off points for cyberattacks, that one could turn you into a god who could hack with your brain (sort of).
