Yes, life is good for Taylor Hebert.

Wait, what?

For a few minutes a day, she can turn into a "mini-Endbringer"; a three metre tall crystaline 'idealised self' that can manifest a single extra power to deal with her current situation. However the power is a metaphor for her envy, and so when in her human form she can drain blood by touch to recharge her time in her super form.
