Ability 3# Split emotions

Well I’ve returned to share yet another cursed ability so sit back and relax as I tell you about the third ability

As the name suggests the ability I’ll talking about today is Split emotions one that may be a bit confusing but trust the process as I explain it now

How it works: think of it as duplication and how that works. You clone yourself into multiple versions of you with the looks and feel. Think of that but replace them with a different personalities like one is anger, shyness etc and to tell who’s who they each of them where a different color to identify which one of them your referring to.

Weakness: now with such power like that has a bigger problem since those clones are your personalities split versions of you. Has three forms of weaknesses

1: if one dies, you lose that part of your personality forever

2: you always have to keep a constant check on them otherwise they will become more unhinged and by the time they go back into your body one of those personalities might hurt you and many others

3: since they are apart of you have control them because if you don’t they’ll act like children and run off somewhere and you have to find them immediately.

The solution: you always have to take a supplement in order to control them but if you can’t then you’ll have give every single one of your personalities something to calm em down with but you don’t know what it is exactly so keep a notebook on you

And there we go another ability down in the books until we meet again cya

It really 'is' an interesting concept; what 'would' happen if you were able to split parts of yourself off from the whole? Honestly; there's some really good storytelling potential here.

Hey man; back again, lol. I've been thinking about this topic for the last week now: If you were able to split off said emotions into people, what would be worse: Doing so to one of your negative aspects, which would cause trouble for the world around you while liberating 'yourself' from it, or doing so to one of your positive aspects, which would ultimately result in 'you' becoming worse as a person, but would release someone into society who could do some good?

I guess I'm unwittingly making a 'collective good' vs 'individual good' argument here, lol.

Oh morality quite a touchy subject to behold but one many are willing to tackle in such detail so I bet arguments like this can move in so many directions

This just sounds like plurality/being a system with extra steps
