Optimized Essence of the Necromorph 

Essence of the Necromorph

By consuming the essence of the Necromorph, you gain several boons:

Necromorph Form: Transform into a Necromorph, a horrifying monster reanimated or converted by a Marker. Unlike typical Necromorphs, you retain your mind and cannot be controlled or repelled by Markers.

Creation of Black Markers: Create a single Black Marker from nothing, and teach others how to replicate it as Red Markers. These Markers can resurrect the dead as Necromorphs under your control, compelling them to obey your commands.

Convergence Event: By creating enough Necromorphs, you can initiate a convergence event, merging all converted life into a Brethren Moon. You become the guiding intelligence of this new entity, able to leave it at any time while maintaining control. You can create multiple Brethren Moons, but be cautious, as they may wander off to feed if left unattended.
