I think the word you're looking for is "probability", though this alone does not salvage your hypothesis.

Amongst the many aspects to consider, would consciousness not be better associated with will than intelligence? Is awareness a meta-model of information (inference) or a fractalian bio-dynamic field effect produced by our organism?

Intelligence, so much has been said on this subject. I hope you will persue it before hobbling together your own definition. Consider these factors: Information theory (intelligence is intrinsicly linked to the manipulation of information), game theory (the application of intelligence is demonstrated by making effective determinations), cognitive theory (along the lines of Marvin Minsky, this will outline automata componentry exhibited in intelligent systems), and theorists in the realm of behavioral intelligence (Howard Gardner has great things to say on classes of intelligence, as there are many; Psychological strategies for both informational and emotional intelligence are well layed out by those such as Keirsey, Myers-Briggs, etc.) After ingesting all that (and so much more), one may be prone to say things like "intelligence may be any effective strategy for [accurately] perceiving, managing, manipulating, or acting upon information." Merely being exposed to "options" (or "opportunities" or "probabilities" for that matter) does not fully account for this set of concepts.

Back to consciousness. I'll leave you with this: The Universe is an infinitely dense point of information. A super amplitude of probability, along which time dilates giving rise to the cascading state collapse of "now". Consciousness models this phenomena. In this way, we did not evolve [in the first place] consciousness evolved (we are its vessel.) As with all dynamic systems, there is the aspect of "capacitance." As such, our self system has a variable degree of capacitating effect, which gives rise to this wonderous emergent phenomena. While having limits, they are far from what would be found without a life of refining them.

Keep building, its a good exercise.
