Loneliness Embodiment

"Loneliness is not a sin, no matter what the circumstances, I don't need help from others. Other people only get in the way. To help is mere pity. It is jealousy towards the strong. An insult to a noble spirit. To be alone is to be the only one. The privilege of a superior soul."

- Ōko Yushima

The ability to become the embodiment of loneliness. Variation of Isolation, Emotional Energy Manipulation and Emotion Embodiment. Opposite to Friendship Embodiment.

Also Called

 * Isolation Embodiment
 * Loneliness Incarnate
 * Solitude Embodiment
 * The Lone Wolf
 * The Loner

Capabilities
Users become the living embodiment of loneliness and gain the ability to become strong by being alone. To care only for oneself, to love only oneself, to be alone with no one to weigh one down, no emotional ties. If the user wishes then the user can create lesser beings from himself to satisfy the isolation; this technically does not count as friendship, as the beings are extensions of the user.

Loners technically believe that without companions to acknowledge them, the only way to affirm their existence is to protect their lives at all cost, granting a strong will of survival and existentialism. To ensure that they will not lose their one solid evidence that they ever came to be, solitude empowers them to ensure their own existence will not fade to black.

If the loneliness was induced by the loss of a loved one at the hands of an enemy, it can grant power in the form of hatred and revenge.
