Skills – Divine Replication (the ability possessed by Adam from Record of Ragnarok)
Description – Divine Replication:
The host can instantly copy the skills, techniques, and abilities of any opponent they observe, whether physical, magical, or supernatural.
This ability does not consume angelic or demonic energy.
Each copy remains perfect, including combinatory techniques and environmental usage, as if Adam had mastered them himself from the very beginning.
All copied techniques can be used instantly, including ultimate attacks and large-scale destructive powers.
The cost of using copied magical skills is fixed at only 10% of Adam's angelic energy. This means that even if the copied ability would normally require 50% of an opponent's power, Adam can still use it flawlessly, with full effect, at the cost of only 10% of his energy.
---
Drawbacks:
The host must clearly see the technique or power in order to copy it (direct line of sight — not through a description or video).
Techniques that are too fast or invisible may escape replication.
The host can only keep a limited number of skills active in memory (for example: 10 maximum). Beyond that, he must "delete" an older skill in order to copy a new one.
The first use costs 10%, but repeated use of the same ability in a short time span will progressively increase the energy cost.
Copying too many different skills can overload his mind, causing disorientation, migraines, or temporary hallucinations.
Hereditary abilities of a species cannot be copied (for example: a Xenomorph's acidic blood or innate physical traits).

Adam was the only one able to see this ability directly. He was truly delighted by such power.
With something like this, Adam thought that exterminating only sinners would be a waste—he should wipe out all of Hell.
Still, he decided to reveal his power to others through the hologram, since it had reactivated.
On the hologram, the full description of Adam's abilities appeared.

[Group Chat]
Charlie: Wait… Adam survived?! And on top of that, he got a new power??
Vaggie: … Divine Replication. Instantly copying anyone's abilities. As if being a narcissistic, misogynistic jerk wasn't enough, now they had to give him THAT.
Adam: Heh, Vaggie, you wound me. But I won't lie—I agree with you. I am incredible.
Vaggie: …
Angel Dust: Oh, fuck me. He's gonna spam everybody's moves like crazy. Hey Adam—can you copy sexual techniques too? 👀
Husk: Great… just what we needed. Another damn headache in this shitty hotel.
Alastor: OHOHOHO~ radio static crackling
Lucifer: The drawbacks seem far more numerous than that other demon's ability… what was his name again?
Zestial: I am Zestial, Your Highness.
Lucifer: Yes, that one.
Stolas: Hmmm~ what a distasteful ability. Even with its drawbacks, he remains a dangerous threat.
Blitzo: Wait, wait, wait!! So… if that guy looks at me, he can copy my ability to deal with Moxxie?!
Moxxie (annoyed): That's not a skill, sir.
Niffty: Oooh! That's so cool! That means he can even copy my cleaning skills! Imagine Adam with a feather duster!!!
Angel Dust: Girl… I don't think that's the priority.
Charlie: But… hold on… Adam isn't like Zestial. Unlike him, I don't think he'll hold back from using his new power—especially not on Hell.
Vaggie: This year's extermination is going to be a massacre.
Adam: Oh trust me, baby. I don't just plan on killing the sinners —he struggles to rise from his bed, smirking— but the entirety of Hell itself.
Sera: ADAM!
Adam: …Okay, I take it back.
After that, both the chat and the hologram vanished—though not before announcing the time of the next anomaly's appearance: 7 days.
Naturally, this sparked fierce debate among the different factions about acquiring such powers. Some had good intentions, others not so much.
But amidst this chaos…

In an unknown location of Heaven…
A stunning woman lay on the edge of a beach, in a bikini, sunglasses shading her eyes. You already know who this is: Adam's first wife—but also his first ex-wife. Lilith.
From the beginning of the hologram's appearance and the Foundation's anomalies, she had seen everything. She still wondered why she couldn't participate in the group chat. Of course, even if she had been added, she wouldn't have said a word… but it left her perplexed.
If she wasn't a main character, nor a secondary one, nor even an antagonist… then what was she in the Foundation's damned "story"?
But right now, she had only one priority: to return to Hell.
Not because of Charlie.
Not because of Lucifer.
Not because of the Foundation's power—she had no interest in that.
But because of Adam.
The reason was simple: he hated her.
She was deeply saddened to leave Heaven and return to Hell. That place had not been missed. Unfortunately, she knew Adam was close to breaking their deal.

Their Pact:
After Heaven's victory over Hell during Lilith's revolt, the Seraphim chose to spare her.
First, because she was the first woman, and technically their "daughter."
Second, because of Lucifer—sparing her prevented breaking him.
Naturally, Adam hated the decision. He wanted to kill her himself. But he couldn't.
Not only because Lilith and he were equally matched—it would end in a stalemate—but also because Lucifer could easily kill him if he tried.
So Adam made a decision.
He found Lilith in a district of Heaven and proposed a pact:
She would never again create or lead a revolt in Hell.
In exchange, he would not harm her, and she would be free to stay in Heaven whenever she wished.
Lilith was skeptical of Adam's intentions. But realizing she could finally escape the horrors of Hell—a place forever impure, despite her efforts to change it—she accepted.
She didn't use her "free pass" to Heaven right away. She stayed in Hell, raised Charlie, and guided her education. Only after Charlie had grown did Lilith depart for Heaven.
She had already spent 7 years there—the best 7 years of her life. She wanted to stay for centuries more.
But she knew Adam would break the pact.
How? Because Seraphim had the power to erase demonic contracts. All Adam had to do was watch Sera, Émile, or any other Seraph do it, and he'd realize he was no longer bound to the agreement. Then nothing would stop him from killing her.
So Lilith decided to leave, full of sorrow, her vacation years stolen away. She cursed the Foundation for this.

⚠️ Author's Note (about Dr. Bright):
(I read something on a fandom page that the creator of the character Dr. Bright made inappropriate sexual advances toward people who reused his character on the official SCP site, and that he was banned—but not his work on Bright.
Now I want to clarify: the joke I made earlier with Dr. Bright teasing Sera, Émile, Lute, and the other exterminators was purely meant for humor—to show Bright's off-color, reckless personality due to his immortality.
After receiving an order from the O5 Council to deliver a healing serum to an individual who participated in containing an anomaly, Bright found himself in Heaven—surrounded by beings close to gods themselves.
Do you really think Bright, who actively seeks death, wouldn't try to provoke them into killing him?
So please understand: I had no bad intentions in making that joke. It was only for character portrayal.)
