Intelligence: Genius (Ramsey is a skilled con artist. He's a freelance artist who has an art degree, but he seems to use his talents for forgery. Tricked many businesses into embezzlement. Stated by WoG that, "Ramsey wrote down the basics of his powers on a piece of paper because he was afraid of his memory of his epithet being erased. Ramsey didn’t write down what his word was, or even how he could do any of those things. But it didn’t matter. Ramsey is a clever guy. Just seeing that limited information was enough to make him think “Hm. If I can morph gold and turn myself into gold, maybe I can reattach fallen limbs. If that’s the case, I can get my own arm cut off to remove the eraser cuff with no negative consequences, thus turning my powers back on and saving us from Zora.” Within 30 seconds Ramsey had already forgotten what his power was again, but he remembered that he thought it was a good idea to cut his arm off. It was a stupid-sounding plan, but it was better than getting cut in half with a sword. So he gave it a shot.")

Powers and Abilities

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Human Achievements (Draws art commissions), Accelerated Development (Continuous use of one's epithet will cause it to grow stronger), Aura (All epithet users have an aura around them), Consumption (Type 1. Can eat screws and drink from pinecones to regain stamina and health), Transmutation (Allows him to transmute objects into solid gold and back, which even includes himself. He is able to turn objects into gold from a distance and can do this to disorient his opponents by making their weapons worthless or making their clothes too heavy. Although, the effect seems to only last a day at most. Ramsey can move normally while he turns his whole body gold and is even able to repair severe damage done to him, such as reattaching his severed arm), Instinctive Reaction (Can instinctively turn himself into gold), Duplication (Ramsey can duplicate an object he has in his possession into an almost perfect golden copy.), Regeneration (High-Low. Characters regenerate after winning a battle. Giovannia could regenerate back his broken bones. In his Gold Form he can re-attach cut off limbs and heal them from their previous injuries. Possibly Mid-Godly. Molly Blyndeff has an ability named "Hushabye" which dumbs down the opponent to nothing. She later got attacked by bears and when asked if she could erase the bears, she states that they would just come back after the fight. Since everyone instantly regenerates right after a fight in verse, the characters themselves should be able to come back from existence erasure), Immortality (Type 6. Mera's bones breaking were viewed as -1 damage this doesn't only apply to Mera as she broke Sylvie's ribs. It is stated by word of god that everyone in Epithet Erased functions under JRPG mechanics so even attacks that are greatly above them and should kill them can't, for example being shot in the head will not kill them, they are even described as "extremely hard to kill"), Restoration (After battles characters injuries, statuses, etcetera are normally undone, including acts such as de-aging a character, being reverted), High Resistance to Pain (Characters in Epithet Erased are extremely hard to kill and can survive shots to the head along with taking attacks that break their bones without showing much harm from it), Resistance to Electricity Manipulation (When turning his body fully gold he was immune to Percy's electricity), Age Manipulation & Corrosion Inducement (Pure Gold doesn't corrode so Zora can't age him. After a battle is over, affects such as Zora Salazar's ability to de-age a character, were reverted)
