Authority Showcase III

Doctor Venom

Source:
Heretic God Stheno

User:
Issei Hyoudou

Obtained in:
Chapter VIII

First Used in:
Chapter XVI

Summary:
The Authority of Medicine and Poison obtained from the Heretic Goddess Stheno. A strange case in that the power obtained contains the essence of not just one Heretic God but two, as the Gorgon Sisters displayed the ability to heal and to poison separately, this ability contains not a singular aspect but both perhaps due to the origin of their powers coming from a singular entity as opposed to fully separate deities.

The Authority comes with two uses.

First, it turns the user's body into a source of venom. From their breath, to their sweat, to their blood, flesh, and bone. Every inch of Issei's body becomes venomous if exposed to others. A powerful ability that while difficult to wield in combat can immediately neutralize and kill most enemies. Even Heretic Gods and other Campione will have a hard time purging the substance without a matching authority or specialized medicine to counteract its effects.

The other side of this Authority is similar to the first, yet complete opposite.

If the user of this Authority can poison, that also means that he can heal as per the myth of the gorgons and their blood as precious medicinal reagents. With the extreme opposite result being that Issei can turn his body into a source of healing instead. At the moment of the Authority's activation, the user must decide whether to heal or hurt, and if the former is chosen, their body will gain the ability to cure illnesses, purge venoms, and even aid in recover from physical injuries.

It is also one of the few cures for Gorgon Venom, being capable of handling toxins up to that level, but not those who are further specialized to work against a subset of entities or targets.

Chants:

Chapter XVI: "With one fang you hurt, with one fang you heal, with one fang you give, and with the other you steal. Winding, coiling, spitting, and sizzling. The blood that courses through your veins is the treasure of the gods, and the curse of a monster!"

Chapter XXIII: "To give and to take, to invoke the caduceus, twins, triplets, sisters all, one half shall grant salvation, one half shall invoke damnation. Both shall rage inside your veins, Dr. Venom!"

Chapter XXIV: "Let me tell you of the Eldest sister. Mighty and dignified. Her love was both a gift and a curse, death and salvation. Coil over the tip of the caduceus and bite your own tail!"
