I'm open to thoughts on if this is too quick a progression and how much additional time should go between.

@maleclypse why not a more consistent pace of change like every two days, or a 50% chance every day?

So to be fully honest I don't think I've really grasped the EOC recurrences very well because the EOC says that it should only make a power gain check every 48-72 hours. Not shown well is there are some effect changes that aren't powers listed above. So I probably need someone to review what I've got written here.

Did a second run doublechecking some changes I made to make sure that all abilities were completed before switching from one phase to the next.
