* PowerAtAPrice:
** Most Sealed Artifacts work this way, providing incredibly useful powers at the cost of significant drawbacks, such as requiring regular human sacrifice, randomly making you lose your way and stumble across catastrophe, turning you into a mindless worshipper of the Sun God if overused, or [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking making you uncomfortably hot]].
** The entire Prisoner pathway works like this; each step makes you CursedWithAwesome in some way, such as turning you into a werewolf or a zombie. Every time you advance, you get to keep all the advantages of the previous path while losing the drawbacks (though you get the drawbacks of the next step instead.)

* BlessedWithSuck: Some people are born with a connection to a particular pathway, starting with essentially half of a Sequence 9 ability without having to drink a potion. This is much less awesome than it sounds - their powers are weak, and they generally won't have any training and will therefore frequently go insane, especially if their Sequence can't be identified. Worse, they're locked into the Sequence they were born with and will ''definitely'' go insane if they drink any other potion.

[[caption-width-right:350:"In the waves of steam and machinery, who could achieve extraordinary? In the fogs of history and darkness, who was whispering? I woke up from the realm of mysteries and opened my eyes to the world. "]]



With the rising tide of steam power and machinery, who can come close to being a Beyonder? Shrouded in the fog of history and darkness, who or what is the lurking evil that murmurs into our ears?
Waking up to be faced with a string of mysteries, Zhou Mingrui finds himself reincarnated as Klein Moretti in an alternate Victorian era world where he sees a world filled with machinery, cannons, dreadnoughts, airships, difference machines, as well as Potions, Divination, Hexes, Tarot Cards, Sealed Artifacts…
The Light continues to shine but mystery has never gone far. Follow Klein as he finds himself entangled with the Churches of the world—both orthodox and unorthodox—while he slowly develops newfound powers thanks to the Beyonder potions.

Like the corresponding tarot card, The Fool, which is numbered 0—a number of unlimited potential—this is the legend of "The Fool".
