Alternate Realm Boon

Isekai fiction has the common trait of having the protagonist receiving a power, skill, or even a legendary item that gives them an overwhelming advantage over the inhabitant of the other world.

Common in most Eastern Portal Fantasy and Transmigration-type light novels, where it is a power(s) that can make a massive benefit or the go-to means for the protagonist to use, especially in combat. The settings of the other world take place in a world that has RPG features that come in the form of a skill. Others would have magic within the setting where the main character has a high affinity and even using the modern study of science in combination for higher effectiveness. For the case of items, they are usually legendary weapons that are known in the world to be wielded by the summoned hero in order to face a danger the inhabitants cannot without a chosen one brandishing it. Another fascinating example is characters who are reincarnated by a deity and are blessed with something that eases any difficulty in a new world. Another method is reincarnating into a high-class monster or a non-human being.

Western Portal Fantasy seems to use the trope within such stories rarely. They often would be placed in a fantasy setting where their modern education or even technology would give them an advantage.

Literature

 * In John Carter of Mars, the titular character travels to Mars by having his soul teleport through space and gains a new body. Due to the lower gravity, he gains superhuman agility and strength.
 * Everworld where the teens can bring modern technology and knowledge to Everworld where they give them advantages such as trading a recipe for gunpowder or using conventional weaponry.
 * In The Scum Villain Self-saving System, Shen Yuan, who before his death and transmigration was an ordinary (albeit sickly) person, discovers that he has full access to the powers Shen Quinquiu (the body he is occupying right now) has, and also the knowledge on how to use those powers.
 * In the Chinese webnovel Release That Witch! and its webmanhua adaptation, the protagonist is an civil engineer that after dying of overworking finds himself transmigrated in the body of Roland, a prince from a world that has both a medieval level of technology and the presence of "witches", women with magical abilities that are prosecuted for it. The only boon the character receives was that, before taking over him, the original Roland has a fame of being very eccentric and had an already stated admiration for witches, which serves New!Roland perfectly to create plans to uplift this world's technology and recruit witches for his plans without creating suspicions for a long while, as everything he does is written off as yet another eccentricity of the prince.
 * Similarly, in the Chinese romance webnovel Transmigrator Meets Reincarnator, the heroine transmigrates to a novel taking place in a very old dynasty that didn't know modern Chinese cooking methods or ingredients... which suits her fine, because in her previous life she was an entrepreneur and an amateur chef, so she can basically use her abilities to win people with her unique and delicious (for that era standards) dishes, and create profitable business. Her other real boon are her knowledge of most of the novel's plot, and that the character she transmigrated has just married into a powerful and influential family and her husband abandons her almost immediately, which means that she knows which characters are trouble (and so she avoids them) and has a lot of liberty to do her business at her pace.
