An idea for narrative devices.

HoboBilbo

I had a silly idea, and I will never use it/ finish it on my own. - My idea: a new set of soul stones (think Marvel), but with unique abilities; the six together yielding in all the powers the infinity gems we all know and love yield. 

 

1.) 'The Toon-Stone' • would grant gag powers, grant the ability to spoof & parade other powers, perform feats of true nonsense, etc.

 

2.) 'The Meta-Stone' • you control the truths, the shadows, the "code", the... Also grants over all/any purely meta-powers & Meta powers that the user can dream; you could change THE CANON...; [forbidden narrative device stuff]...; etc. 

 

3.) 'The Magic-Stone' • grants control over all mystical magics: the fey, the eldritch, Vudu, some (but not all) of the cosmic forces, etc.

 

4.) 'The Physics-Stone' • grants control over the laws of physics, the physical nature of all things in this stone's respective universe, etc.

 

5.) 'The Arch-Stone' • [I wasn't able to figure it out—I never will]

***

 

       I don't know what I am missing—outside of a finished Arch-Stone—and I refuse to make cop-out stones. Do any of you lot know what the other two would be most fittingly? Use these ideas as you will. (What would Stone Six even be?)

  • Comment from author about the poem: I have thought about Stone Six being a "Greek parallel" stone—one that could mirror, reflect, and other things. - maybe, instead of parallelism powers only, Stone Six could have many powers themed around the Cesura & Double Cesura ( Pausing, Conceptual Division, Parallelism & two–three other themes for powers—maybe more | all cobbled together).
