| Description: | You believe that you are destined to achieve great things. Maybe you are fated to become the Emperor, a god, or the world's greatest magician. Whatever your destiny, however, it’s not a question of whether you’ll achieve it, but when. Note that this is different from a Delusion. You do not believe that you are the Emperor, just that you will become the Emperor. |
