Bought a kai resub, so purease be gentle.

Amaterasu-ōmikami (天照大神/天照大御神)
“The Great August Kami Who Shines in the Heaven”

Being the true personification of all that Nana of Amaterasu stands for, her release has, likewise, taken on these very same properties. No longer is the young noblewoman’s blade exemplary of her noble upbringing and hard work, but of her steadfast convictions, her past, present and future.

Whereas before Nana and her zanpakutou spirit were completely unrelated from one another save for their complementing ideals, the spirit inhabiting her very being is now a familiar one. Stemming from the dawn of time, the noblewoman’s zanpakutou spirit is the other half of her being.

It was due to an incredible event all those years ago that the first matriarch of Amaterasu was forced to split herself up in two parts, with Nana becoming the reborn half, and Amaterasu herself remaining as a spirit of the old.

After having overcome her traumas, the madness within herself, these two halves of one soul are once again inhabiting the same body and as such Amaterasu-ōmikami embodies Nana’s very principle.

While not immediately discernible in its initial release state, its true purpose comes to fruition in its final release state.

Shikai
始解

While in its initial release state, Amaterasu-ōmikami takes on the form of a silver broadsword that bevels inwards just about the two-pronged, golden cross guard. Just above the bevelled portion of the blade, there are three holes, each of which holds a golden ring with a small, rectangular plaque attached to it.

Her blade, in its active release state, is not unlike her recently obtained item “Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi”, bearing the same similarities in appearance, save for the kanji which do not appear on her zanpakutou.

Furthermore, Nana’s golden-brown earrings (which are in the form of two hoops), turn into a true gold and gain three rectangular plaques the size of a pink finger. Near the end of these plaques are small coin-like dots seemingly floating beneath them in mid-air.

As finishing touch, the noblewoman gains a magatama necklace - said to be the Yasakani no Magatama. The main, large magatama is a cyan-colour and is surrounded by two smaller, golden magatamas.

Her eyes also take on a soft, red-glowing hue.

Abiru (あびる)
“To Bask in the Sun”

Abiru is a personal effect that harnesses the power of the sun and lets the user bask in it, healing them in the process. This ability is passive and drains 2% of the wielder’s reiatsu for every turn it takes to heal up a wound.

By paying an additional 5% reiatsu, the user can speed up the regenerative process.

Niwakamekura (にわかめくら)
“Sudden Blindess”

Niwakamekura is an area of effect ability that harnesses the power of the sun and uses it to bring forth an intense light encompassing a 20m diameter, blinding everyone - excluding the wielder - within its vicinity completely for one turn. For every turn that follows the blinding becomes less and less so until after two turns after the initial turn where the eyesight of the affected returns to normal.

This ability costs 7% of Nana’s reiatsu and has a two turn cool down after the three turns of usage are over (one for initial blindness, two for the effect).

Chokusha (ちょくしゃ)
“Direct Rays of Sunlight”

Chokusha is an area of effect attack that harnesses the power of the sun to turn the battlefield into a scorching fury of blazingly hot fire. Encompassing a 20m diameter, this attack does not discern friend from foe – excluding the wielder – and burns any and all participants within its field of effect.

This attack costs 15% of the wielder’s reiatsu and burns brightly for three turns after which it dies down. A three turn cool down is needed for the attack to recharge.

Bankai
卍解

In its final release state, the form of Amaterasu becomes absolute and both the wielder of present times and the spirit of an age long forgotten become one and the same again, unleashing the full extent of their broken past.

Exemplary of her newfound status as “Goddess of Sun”, Amaterasu’s clothes change accordingly and turn from the standard shinigami shihakushou into a red and white kimono. Though still very much a kimono in every conceivable word possible, there are a few discernible differences between a standard kimono and the one Amaterasu wears.

Being more situated for combat, the kimono’s sleeves are separate from the main robe themselves, and while having the traditional appearance of being rather long, they are infinitely more easy to move in than when they were attached to the rest of the kimono.

The sleeves, as well as the kimono itself, are of white cloth with a thick, red stroke surrounding the place where the arms come through the sleeves. Near the top of the sleeves are two red ribbons attached to the cloth. The main cloth of the sleeves have a grand, fully red coloured circle in the middle – exemplifying her status as a ‘goddess’ of the Japanese lore, with the cloth looking like the Japanese flag.

The top part of the kimono also differs slightly from that of the traditional cloth in that it looks like the wielder is wearing a relatively small battle jacket over the main shirt. This jacket is also white with a red stroke along its outer rim, looking as if the strokes overlap the red stroke of the kimono’s collar.

Amaterasu also wears a red hakama over the traditional kimono cloth held together with a fully white obi – though the obi is adorned with light blue stripes.

Lastly a large, red scarf of at least twice her size in length and around the woman’s waist in width appears with eighth coin-like rings to either end of the scarf. Amaterasu wears this scarf behind her back and over her arms.

The magatama she had been wearing in her shikai carries over and the cyan-coloured main magatama starts to glow softly.

Behind the user a massive, golden ornament appears, vaguely resembling wings that hover just behind Amaterasu. In addition to this grotesque ornament, the wielder itself also gains a golden, heavenly crown of Japan. The golden wings act as an artificial sun.

In slight comparison to the shikai, Amaterasu’s blade in bankai changes once again. This time the blade absorbs Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi and creates a double-ended blade of sorts – the handle remains its original size.

In addition to this change in appearance to the blade, Amaterasu also gains the Yata no Kagami (八咫鏡) - “Eight Hand Mirror”, which is said to be Amaterasu’s sacred mirror. Yata no Kagami is about the size of Amaterasu’s upper-body has a dark-golden outer rim, a golden inner rim and ‘mirror’ circle in the middle and acts as a shield of sorts for the wielder.

Atatamaru (あたたまる)
“To Warm Oneself”

Atatamaru is a passive, personal effect ability that harnesses the warmth that radiates from Amaterasu’s bankai and uses it to fuel her powers. For every turn that passes and the bankai is active, Atatamaru drains 7.5% of Amaterasu’s reiatsu per turn and stores it in the mirror.

Every time this happens one of the golden plaque-rings on the sword start to ring in a soothing tone. Because there are six of these, the most Atatamaru will store at one given point is 45% of Amaterasu’s reiatsu.

As an added effect, the wielder can opt to release one of the stored units, or multiple, to heal shallow wounds.

Taiyoukichou (たいよきちょう)
“Solar Screen”

Taiyoukichou is a personal effect attack and is only available when one or more of the six rings on her sword are activated. By spending this stored energy, Yata no Kagami begins to shine brightly and starts emitting a golden aura with a form not unlike the shield itself.

The golden aura is as high and wide as the wielder and is used to block attacks less than and up to its own strength.

Taiyoukichou is not susceptible to natural barrier decay, but dissipates after 3 rounds.

Taiyousaisei (たいよさいせい)
“Solar Rebirth”

Taiyousaisei is a personal effect attack only available under extreme conditions and when one or more of the six rings on her sword activated. True to its name, Taiyousaisei takes its power from the stored sun power and uses it to completely regenerate lost limbs, mend broken bones, and heal any type of wound.

The amount of stored reiatsu determines the effectiveness of Taiyousaisei, but under extreme, dire situations – such as cardiac arrest, all limbs lost, etc – Taiyousaisei will forcibly infuse enough reiatsu into Yata no Kagami to mend, or resuscitate the user at the loss of bankai.

Choushinsei (ちょうしんせい)
“Supernova”

Choushinsei is an area of effect attack that harnesses the power of at least one stored unit, and upon instigation begins to gather sun particles around Yata no Kagami and slowly, but surely starts to gather in strength and start to spiral around the user, gathering in ferocity as time passes.

When released all the heat gathered ferociously explodes outward, burning everything it touches with a scorching hot sensation in a 30m diameter.

This attack also has a team-based variant in which the wielder remains inactive for the coming turns, letting Choushinsei gather the power gained from Atatamaru. In this state Atatamaru gathers power at twice its normal rate, at the cost of immobility for the following turns.

- What does this mean in laymen terms? Amaterasu can either decide to wait 6 turns and then use the supernova, or use it at the start of the battle and have her allies protect her. This way it only costs Amaterasu 3 turns to charge the attack to 45%.

Kuruijini (Death in Madness) - Resubmit

Form is fine. I dig the giant spider. You should post the art you're basing it on for visual reference 8D.

Gihei is fine. Supersiphon is kind of strong, but it's Hisao's marquee ability.

Kaisen can be made to work, but passive damage reduction by two levels is pretty lame. Maybe you should consider a better way to defend the giant spider than using this mechanic.

Oushi is good. I like the idea of Hisao broodmothering it up with arachnid kidou bombs. Still, since this ability is just a more unsightly version of Bakudou 51, I feel like this can be buffed just a little bit -- maybe allow the spiders to actually do minimal amounts of physical damage. At least then you could use them for defense or disruption plays since they would actually be tangible.

Since this does in fact have a cost and I'm fine with the attack as is...


Ressurection: Kuruijini (Death in Madness)

Form: Truly embracing the darkness and primal hunger of his soul, Hisao’s bankai has been utterly rewritten as he has come to accept working with his inner hollow. At a whim, Hisao’s zanpakutou shatters as a thick putrid grey fog of reiatsu explodes outward covering a circle 30m in radius from Hisao’s position. Once it condenses, those within its effect find the ground and sky littered with strings of reiatsu all shining the same grey as the relic’s reiatsu. At the center of this mobile field, the former tyrant emerges after going through a complete metamorphosis.

Hisao’s “body” is now a 30ft tall arachnid body with proportional legs and a hideous gaping maw. Out of the top of the structure a human torso emerges as the rest of the kidouist’s form. While in this form all talking is down by the mouth on the body which speaks in a double tone of both Hisao’s voice and his inner hollow’s.

Ability: Gihei (Righteous Soldier)

The draining nature of Hisao’s shikai has been amplified to affect every being caught within Hisao’s web. The drain is 20% of the cost of any kidou, gintou, cero, faction techniques, release abilities, feats, and basic techniques. This energy can only be used for the sole purpose of casting more spells or for use in his bankai attacks and does not take away from the actual damage of the ability used. The total amount of stored reiatsu cannot exceed Hisao’s kidou stat though Hisao now gains the ability to decide whether to spend his own reiatsu or the reiatsu stored when casting a spell.

Ability: Kaisen (Outbreak of war)
A passive ability activated constantly while Hisao is in his Resurrection form. He gains 3% rage per turn to augment his giant, mostly immobile form. In his augmented form,Hisao can downgrade the damage of any attack less than lethal by two categories.

Attack: Oushi (Imperial Army)
By gaining 2% Rage, Hisao is able to craft a five foot tall version of his Resurrection form which moves according to his ability stat. These smaller clones do not directly do damage, however they may be embedded with a single kidou spell, which Hisao must pay for, to release either when destroyed or when Hisao wills them to detonate.
 
Kuruijini (Death in Madness) - Resubmit

After speaking with the other GMs, it's still pretty clear that this needs work (considering, you know, that you didn't fix anything from the first submission)

Gihei is fine.

Kaisen still needs editing. If you insist on keeping the levelled damage reduction, know that this will get hit with the nerf bat, since with two whole tiers of reduction, a "major" wound becomes minor, and the two below it don't even register, whatever that means since what constitutes an injury in anything besides "lethal" is ill-defined. The base technique was already pretty strong. Modifying it to this level isn't gonna happen.

Oushi needs some changes to its wording. Having spoken with Will he believes that it needs to be stated that each of your spiderlings count towards your casting limit in any given turn.

Name: Goukai Guujin (lit. "Lively Puppet")

Release Command: "Pull Their Strings..."

Inner World: Taku’s inner world is comprised of multiple landscapes. On the lowest level, a desolate wasteland made from craggy rocks and mountains can be seen. However, upon closer inspection, trees and other foliage may be found in scattered places, growing up from seemingly nowhere. Small ponds and rivers flow through the area, as lava from various volcanoes spews forth, hardening and creating an even more diverse world. In the distance, an arctic tundra can be spotted, as hail rains down in certain locations. The sky is always just as randomized as the earth; in one area it may be clear as day, but mere feet away a lightning cloud may be giving way to a downpour. All of this is a relative statement, and is representative of Taku’s various emotions and internal conflicts.

Manifestation: When Goukai Guujin appears, it takes the form of whatever landscape is near it (i.e. if in a wasteland, it will be comprised of earth and rocks). It closely resembles the ancient creature known as a golem. Needless to say, it has no definite form; no matter what form it does take, however, it always contains the same consciousness. Goukai Guujin is a very profound thinker, and often helps Takuramu find the answers that the boy can’t find on his own. Despite its outwardly vicious appearance, the golem dislikes violence and tries to stray from it, which balances with Taku’s sometimes erratic temperament.

Example 1: Root Forme
Golem.jpg


Example 2: Earthen Forme
Golem_ConceptArt.jpg


Example 3: Lava Forme
Golem-Wars.jpg


Form: After Goukai Guujin is released, the blade dissolves into reishi and the materials that make up the hilt are unwound. The red silk that was once the handle wraps tightly around both of Taku’s hands and takes the form of fingerless gloves. The ivory from the hilt carves itself into small white rings, placed swiftly onto each of Taku’s ten fingers. The rings are jagged on their edges, creating small daggers two inches long on each finger. The reishi from the dissolved blade can then be channeled directly through the boy’s fingers.

The spirit particles take the form of tiny orbs about an inch away from each of Taku’s ten fingertips. At will, Taku can unravel these orbs to create long threads. These “strings” can be sent into any inanimate object (including the earth, water, rocks, trees, etc.) up to 30 feet away, and used to control the object, bending it to the will of the string’s wielder. This can be used to craft weapons of any wieldable size from common materials to use in battle, to create a wall out of these materials to block attacks, or to create anything that Taku can think of (within reasonable limits). Goukai Guujin is limited to one object per finger used to control it, or up to ten objects at one time.

Ability: Jizokuryoku (lit. “Durability”)

At the cost of a certain percentage of reiatsu, Taku can increase the durability of the items which his gloves create. The default strength of the items that this skill is used on is 50 reiatsu, which is added onto the sturdiness of the item no matter how much reiatsu Taku decides to donate. For example:

- Taku’s Reiatsu = 1,000
- Taku creates a claymore out of ice
- Taku decides to give 10% of his rei to increase the sturdiness of the weapon
- The claymore now contains the durability of 150 rei, the average strength of Taku’s sealed zanpakutou.

This ability is much more effective on a smaller scale, as 50 reiatsu becomes increasingly less significant as one’s total reiatsu raises.

Given permission to sub my Overdrive by Will. ONCE MORE UNTO THE BREACH O_Q

Arano: Overdrive: [ Sefuchi :: Torrential Abyss ]

The absolute essence of spiritual energy consumes Arano as his power over shadow surpasses mortal bonds, their very shape and purpose bent to his will. Shedding the entirety of his Resonance, Arano assumes direct control over all shadows within a 15m radius, in addition to any shadows previously under his control as well as his Manifestation.

While under his control, the shadows are subject to every one of his abilities at his whim, activated by paying their full cost with the manipulation lasting two rounds before ending. Arano is capable of simultaneously wielding the entirety of the shadows he commands effortlessly, with it being exempt from multi-weapon rules for the purposes of the Overdrive.
 
Goukai Guujin - SPECIAL - Get into contact with me, via PM or IM. The core concept of what you are working on is neat, but I don't think you're familiar with standard practices in terms of formatting your submission and where 'powers' go.

Serpah - Approved with changes - No multi weapon rule loss. Being able to control everything is already ba enough. Its also not a rule if people just get multiple vectors and then make them an exclusion. Since my kai was the one that made those rules come into place I have a good handle on why they exist.

Right this is as well polished as I'm going to get without feedback, so here's hoping what I've done is right and I'm not going to embarrass myself too much. :P

EDIT: Recommended changes have been made

Shikai: Kaika Fuhai (flowering decay)

Type: Armour

Inner world: David’s inner world is a chain of desert islands surrounding another larger island covered by a dense forest. The sea intersecting the islands is clear and shallow, only coming up to David’s waist whilst the sand below it is pure white almost appearing to be snow. The forest itself comprises of oak trees, with bark of stone and metal donning purple leaves. The sky above all of this is pitch black bar from the huge red sun bearing down and illuminating everywhere. During the night a shattered moon is visible, fragments scattered across the night sky, it gives the illusion of stars.


Spirit: Kaika Fuhai are two tree spirits, each capable of producing wood atronachs,

-Kaika: blood red haired nymph clad in a nurse uniform, her teasing and playful nature is a manifestation of David’s persona that he repressed after his hollow incident at the academy. As the nurses uniform implies she is the healing side of his Zanpakuto powers.

-Fuhai: Blue haired nymph adorned in a black lolita dress. Her personality is cold and calculating, representing David’s current professional Disposition which had been exaggerated to contrast Kaika. Ruthless and described by Kaika as being “prone to blood frenzies” she represent the offensive and more aggressive side of his Zanpakuto.

Call phrase: blossom and die with us

Form: iron grey bark grows and coils around around David’s body forming a grey, branchy exoskeleton. The blade Divides into six creating two fingers and a thumb on the exoskeleton’s unnaturally long hands

Abilities/attacks:

1- Form(passive effect): kakuara (oak skin): Drains 2% of David’s current reiatsu , this causes the armour encasing his body to regrow from damage and protect him, behaving mechanically in the same way as a barrier.

Extra Description: The grey bark that encases David grows when he exerts his reiatsu into it. The bark thickens becoming very resistant to damage and regrowing when damaged very quickly.

2- Attack:Bōeki (Exchange) Transfer damage from one target to another, David pays 3% of his total reiatsu to do this. The damage transferred is determined by how long the attack was charged. One turn for a minor wound, three for a medium wound and six for a large wound, Charging takes up one turn, in which no offensive actions or blocking can be performed.

David produces a steel flower in the hands of the injured party. he then slashes the target of the attack causing black and blue petals to cover the person’s injuries and the same area on the target. The petals flare and disperse to reveal that the damage has swapped parties.

3- Attack:Tekiryō (Proper dosage). David stabs a target with the tip of his talons, Spending 2% his reiatsu to secrete a sap into the target’s body, effects include paralysis/reduced mobility and anesthesia in the immediate area. The paralysis lasts 1 turn whilst the anesthesia will last much longer. The stab doesn’t inflict damage.

With the appreciated assistance of a pack of zombies I have a brand, spanking new Awakening to sub.

NEJIGARANDOU
“Spiral Void”螺旋 空間

Nejigarandou, unlike many other Advent Awakenings has no real, tangible form separate from its wielder. Upon activation, the small tattoo on Zakki’s chest spirals outward across his body in intricate swirling patterns which bear a striking resemblance to spiral galaxies. These designs give off a faint light, and seem to cause Zakki’s body to take on a semi-transparent state -- accentuating the elaborate markings.


Attack: Abunai Seishou
“Unstable Plasma”
- 0% Resonance

The power of Zakki’s Awakening lies in the manipulation of various forms of ionizing radiation. Its most literal application is Abunai Seishou. By expending 3% of his reiatsu, Zakki generates a burst of radiation from his palms -- heating the oxygen in the air to the point that it becomes a highly volatile plasma. These swirling orbs of superheated gas and molten matter can be fired at opponents, causing severe tissue damage at the point of impact.


Ability: Youshi Kanshou
“Proton Buffer”- 0% Resonance

Despite its palpable offensive ability, Nejigarandou’s prowess lies in its versatility. By expending 2% of his reiatsu per turn for three turns, Zakki can surround himself with a shell of mephitic radiation. This shell functions as an effective barrier, enhancing his “True Grit” base technique by the amount paid for the duration of the ability.


Resonance Attack: Mijinheki
“Ion Burst”
- 25% Resonance

Upon reaching 25% Resonance, the true pinnacle of Zakki’s Awakening is unleashed. By expending 10% of his reiatsu, the Advent can create a tremendous amount of radiation and release it in an omnidirectional explosion. This blast deals damage across a significant radius (about 10 meters) and blinds anyone within its area of effect for two turns after activation due to the intense light created by the attack.





TRUE AWAKENING: RASENSEIUN KUUGEKI
“Spiraling Galaxy, Spatial Abyss”銀河 深淵

At the True Awakening level, Zakki’s mastery of radiation reaches its apex, granting him sway over immense and powerful cosmic energy. In this state, the markings from Zakki’s Initial Awakening become even more intricate and pronounced -- extending beyond his form and pouring over the area surrounding him. Most strikingly however, his body is consumed by light, appearing as a being seemingly made of pure energy.



Attack: Kakunenryou
“Fuel Rod”
- 50% Resonance

By utilizing the immense amount of radioactive potential under his control, Zakki can bombard ambient particles of matter present in the air around him with enormous amounts of directed energy to create molten rods of plasma. These unstable constructs react when struck by an outside force, quickly reverting to a solid state and fusing with any nearby matter. This allows Zakki to effectively inhibit an enemy’s movement for a brief period of time. An enemy struck by one of these spears will be knocked back a distance equal to the maximum distance of Zakki’s “Push” base technique before being pinned to the nearest solid surface for a duration of one turn. Each use of Kakunenryou costs Zakki 2% of his Reiatsu. Zakki can create one spear per turn for every 3,000 points in his Agility stat, to a maximum of six.



Ability: Kahoukai
“Alpha Decay”- 50% Resonance

Somewhat of a spiritual successor to the Advent’s earlier ability Youshi Kanshou, Kahoukai expands the energy field present around Zakki to cover an area equal to thirty meters. This zone is understandably, highly volatile and radioactive, afflicting any enemies in its area of effect with what amounts to radiation sickness. This constant, damaging radioactive field affects all those within its radius, dealing damage equal to 3% of Zakki’s reiatsu per turn for all targets in the area for every turn active.



Ability: Kuroshigai
“Black Body”
- 50% Resonance

With his increased mastery over various forms of radiation, Zakki also gains the ability to cancel out certain types of radioactive energy. By imbuing his own body with these properties, Zakki can create what is known as a “black body” in physics -- something that absorbs most or all forms of radiation, including that in the ultraviolet spectrum. This renders Zakki’s form almost completely invisible. While in this state Zakki’s agility is greatly augmented, allowing him the benefits associated with the Ryoku base technique free of cost. For each turn Kuroshigai is active Zakki must pay 500 reiatsu. Any attack or technique activated during Kuroshigai immediately ends its cloaking effect, and the ability may not be activated again for another two turns once it has been deactivated.

Moon: IA + 25% cool

TA:

Only “Alpha Decay” needs changed - Pick: pay 3%, and its damage is divided equally amongst all targets there, (so 3 people would suffer 1% each) OR pay 3% per target in the area.

BINGO BANGO. Ask and you shall receive.

Love,

Kai staff
 
Sorry Fate, we had a miscom in posting your review:

For ability 1 buff/nerf : just a 2% cost for a 2% barrier, normal decay. Its a 3 ability kai, so, have to be careful. Now, you can take the stipulation out about breaking this causing other abilities to fail.

2 Buff : move the cost from 10% to 3%. With all the other drawbacks on the healing aspect, (time, have to hit someone) the cost was way too high.

3: nerf: Paralyze for 1 round, instead of 5, the numbness can stay.
 
Here's my new Kai sub. I'm either using restarting my char as a spec point, or saying I'm re-subbing it cause my last approved kai I used a spec point on subbing had a stat buff, and you all said they needed to be re-subbed.

EDIT: Stats not bleeding cuz I'm restarting old char, so I'm subbing BK Now too

Anywho, without further ado, feast your eyes:

Release: Sin


Form:

The form of this release is a set of seven katanas in sheaths, each of which is strapped to Amaya's back. They are arranged in the half circle starting at her lower back, one blade's hilt at zero, thirty, sixty, ninety, one hundred and twenty, one hundred and fifty, and one hundred and eighty degrees of that semi circle.

Each blade looks identical in its sheath with the only difference being the color. The bottom left blade is a muted gray, above it is a rich green, above it is a majestic gold, at the crown is a rich purple, below it to the right is a sickly orange, followed by a deep red, and at the bottom right is a solid black.

This form does not change if Amaya is in shikai or bankai. However in shikai she is only able to draw the three on the left, and in bankai she may only draw the remaining four. Additionally in shikai, Amaya is only able to draw a single sword at a time, however in bankai, she is able to dual wield blades.

Each sword has its own unique ability that Amaya may only use while it is drawn. All of the effects imparted by the blades are immediately removed should she return the blade to its sheath. Additionally while a blade is drawn, Amaya's irises change to become that color, symbolizing her embrace of the sin whose power she is calling on. If she is wielding two blades each iris turns the color of the blade in its respective hand.

Shikai Abilities:


Gray Sword - Sloth:

The gray sword is the most simple of the blades. There is nothing unique about the weapon, and in terms of looks it can simply be described as ordinary.

When landing a blow with this weapon or deflecting an attack Amaya can pay 10% of her reiatsu to lock the last used ability of her opponent. This ability may only be used once, but she can change it upon another successful blow or deflection. This ability is only resolved upon Amaya resheathing this blade.

Anyone affected by this ability feels a laziness while under it's influences. They aren't able to struggle against it, and aren't just unable to use the ability, they are just overcome by a lack of desire to actually use it.

Green Sword - Envy:

The green sword is the only sword whose appearance changes. When drawn it immediately imitates the basic qualities of Amaya's nearest opponent. This change is only aesthetic, and most often only affects the color of the swords blade itself (it's hilt always stays green). Occasionally it's length and other minor characteristics will change slightly if the form of the weapon its imitating is similar to its own.

By paying 2% of her reiatsu any turn Amaya has this blade drawn the weapon will move of its own accord in an identical fashion as the weapon it's imitating.

While this sword is drawn, whoever the blade is fixated on get an unnatural feeling of being watched, as if every move they make is being scrutinized. At the same time they can't help but feel the desire to watch the sword itself, and after time a bitterness builds at being unable to use the ability themselves.

The Gold Sword - Greed:

An elegant and lavishly jeweled blade, it's hard not to be awed by the sheer magnificent quality of this pure gold blade.

Whenever Amaya uses another ability or attacks with this sword drawn she may pay 10% reaitsu. If she does so the attack, ability, or kidou spell used is suddenly imbued with a golden sheen and is strengthened by the amount of reiatsu paid.

While this blade is drawn, onlookers feel a compulsive desire to hold the blade, and steal its powers for itself.


Bankai Abilities:


The Black Sword - Wrath:

This blade is nearly identical to its unreleased form. Battle worn it has a large number of dents and chips in its once polished obsidian blade.

When swinging this sword Amaya may pay 15% reiatsu to imbue it with raw electric power. This electricity is transferred into anything it touches. She may also swing the blade into the empty air, and send the electricity from the blade in a bolt of lightning.

While looking on this sword, one feels their hair creep up on the back of their neck. After all, seeing an incarnate of rage causes all but the most fortified of souls to flee.

The Red Sword – Lust:

This blade is elegant, and appears to be made out of satin. The blade itself transitions between red and black depending on the angle it’s viewed.

Any time this blade touches another person or their weapon Amaya may pay 500 reiatsu to impart on them a weakened desire to fight. In doing this she replaces whatever feelings the individual has for her and replaces it with their desires. Every time Amaya does this the desires grow stronger, until after 5 applications she is, at least temporarily their deepest desire.

While under the effects of lust, it is nearly impossible to discern the real from the fake. Even if Amaya is the exact opposite of what one wants, she simply becomes more and more irresistible...

The Orange Sword - Gluttony:

This blade is cracked and lined with a green-yellow color. It appears to be oozing pus from the cracks and edges, appearing to be alive and crawling. On closer inspection however, it is nothing more than a trick of the eyes.

With this sword drawn Amaya must pay 5% of her reiatsu a turn. Each turn she does so the blade doubles in width, and grows a foot longer. Additionally any kidou spell or reiatsu based attack that comes into contact with the blade that's cost is less that the amount of reiatsu invested in it is nullified.

While in the presence of gluttony one feels deeply famished. Their thoughts will often drift to food, water, or whatever else they love in excess.

The Purple Sword - Pride:

This blade is regal in design. With an elegant non standard blade, which is slightly longer, and curved more sharply. It too is embedded with gemstones, and has gold laid into it's purple glass blade.

This blade's ability may only be unlocked for 20% of Amaya's reaitsu. In doing so Amaya becomes covered in blistering purple flames, that burn anything they touch. These flames completely negate all energy based attacks that are less than the amount paid. Additionally Amaya's zanjutsu stat is increased by this amount. This ability only lasts for 2 turns, and can only be used again if the sword is sheathed for at least 2 turns.

While observing pride, and its effects on Amaya, it suddenly becomes difficult for an onlooker to resist standing up to Amaya. Her attacks are suddenly invitations to deflect them, her openings are invitations to attack, and her taunts are more than just words.

Name: Goukai Guujin (lit. "Lively Puppet")

Release Command: "Pull Their Strings..."

Inner World: Taku’s inner world is comprised of multiple landscapes. On the lowest level, a desolate wasteland made from craggy rocks and mountains can be seen. However, upon closer inspection, trees and other foliage may be found in scattered places, growing up from seemingly nowhere. Small ponds and rivers flow through the area, as lava from various volcanoes spews forth, hardening and creating an even more diverse world. In the distance, an arctic tundra can be spotted, as hail rains down in certain locations. The sky is always just as randomized as the earth; in one area it may be clear as day, but mere feet away a lightning cloud may be giving way to a downpour. All of this is a relative statement, and is representative of Taku’s various emotions and internal conflicts.

Manifestation: When Goukai Guujin appears, it takes the form of whatever landscape is near it (i.e. if in a wasteland, it will be comprised of earth and rocks). It closely resembles the ancient creature known as a golem. Needless to say, it has no definite form; no matter what form it does take, however, it always contains the same consciousness. Goukai Guujin is a very profound thinker, and often helps Takuramu find the answers that the boy can’t find on his own. Despite its outwardly vicious appearance, the golem dislikes violence and tries to stray from it, which balances with Taku’s sometimes erratic temperament.

Example 1: Root Forme
Golem.jpg


Example 2: Earthen Forme
Golem_ConceptArt.jpg


Example 3: Lava Forme
Golem-Wars.jpg


Form: After Goukai Guujin is released, the blade dissolves into reishi and the materials that make up the hilt are unwound. The red silk that was once the handle wraps tightly around both of Taku’s hands and takes the form of fingerless gloves. The ivory from the hilt carves itself into small white rings, placed swiftly onto each of Taku’s ten fingers. The rings are jagged on their edges, creating small daggers two inches long on each finger. The reishi from the dissolved blade can then be channeled directly through the boy’s fingers.

The spirit particles take the form of tiny orbs about an inch away from each of Taku’s ten fingertips. At will, Taku can unravel these orbs to create long threads. These “strings” can be sent into any inanimate object (including the earth, water, rocks, trees, etc.) up to 30 feet away, and used to control the object, bending it to the will of the string’s wielder. This can be used to craft weapons of any wieldable size from common materials to use in battle, to create a wall out of these materials to block attacks, or to create anything that Taku can think of (within reasonable limits). Goukai Guujin is limited to one object per finger used to control it, or up to ten objects at one time.

Ability Slot #1: (The ability to control reishi with the gloves themselves takes up the first slot. The cost is 150 rei.)

Ability Slot #2: Sugoihengen (lit. “Shattering Transformation”)

At the cost of 1% of Taku’s reiatsu, he may at will change the size or shape of any object, weapon, or item that is connected to one of the ten threads on his fingers, despite where the object is located (within 30 feet from the source of the thread). This process occurs by sending his own reiatsu down through the “string” and morphing the object remotely. The size of the item cannot exceed the size of the caster.

Attack Slot/Mode Slot #3: Kenshi Tsunzaku (lit. “Thread Burst”)

At the cost of 5% of Taku’s reiatsu, the boy may use this special attack. The orbs on Taku’s fingertips begin to glow a bright yellow, and eventually explode. This results in his ability to violently “control” any objects around him, save for living beings and zanpakutou. An earthquake, for example, would be relatively easy to generate. Being a less precise attack and more of an all-out offensive technique, this ability is moderately less accurate than Goukai Guujin’s normal form. Taku can keep up this skill for a price of 2% of his reiatsu per turn.

Initial Awakening: High Voltage

Form: Upon Xavier electric abilities awakening his body takes on some obvious changes. From his hair turning white and his eyes glowing teal as well as new teal glowing tribal tattoos laminating his skin.

Attack: Chain Discharge
By imbuing his attacks with High Voltage’s power, Xavier can greatly augment his offensive abilities. When using an ammo-based attack, Xavier can pay 2% of his reiatsu to infuse the next two rounds he fires with electrical energy. Once both attacks are fired, the rounds emit a continuous arc of electricity between them, shocking anyone who crosses the beam. The maximum distance between the two points that the beam can be maintained is roughly twenty meters. The arc lasts for a single round and will persist even if both bullets strike a target. If utilizing Lightning-based ammunition, the damage of Chain Discharge will last for two rounds.

Ability: Lightning Synapse
A more passive use for Xavier’s mastery of electrical energy, Lightning Synapse allows the Advent to enhance his own reaction time with his Awakening’s electrical potential, speeding up his synapses and nerve conduction velocity to greatly improve his ability to perceive the world around him. Practically speaking, this allows Xavier to slow his perception of the world around him very briefly, in order to parse attacks or line up his abilities. Each round Lightning Synapse is active costs Xavier 1% of his reiatsu, and the ability can only be maintained continuously for one round per every 1k in his Agility stat. Upon deactivation, Lightning Synapse cannot be used again for one round.

Resonance Attack: Rolling Thunder
In a true display of prowess over electricity, Xavier is able to supercharge ambient particles in the air around him in order to create a sustained orb of condensed electrical energy. Once fired, the orb can travel a distance of up to ten meters before dissipating unless it strikes a target. Any enemy that comes into contact with Rolling Thunder is violently electrocuted and stunned by the orbs taser-like effect. Additionally, any instance of Chain Discharge used while Rolling Thunder is active will cause the first ability to arc to the orb as well as the two rounds used to generate it. Each use of this ability costs Xavier 5% of his reiatsu.

Switch - Approved with changes.

Changes:

Name: Niyaniya Nikuya – (“Grinning Butcher”)

Release Command: “Death becomes Him...”

Inner World: Chojiro’s inner world appears as a dimly lit warehouse. Above, rusted chains and hooks hang, while a single broken window lets light trickle into the room. Depending on the mood of Chojiro the light that trickles in can change from red to pure white. The ground is covered in a thick layer of dirt covering whatever the intended floor had been. Various tools of torture can be found laying about the room. In the darkest corner, a large table sits. Most the time Nikuya can be found hovering over the table even if there is nothing on it. On the wall across the room, buzz saws hang from nails.

Manifestation: Nikuya appears in the form of a very tall hooded male figure. The true height of Nikuya is a towering 6'5". His body is draped in a dark robes while his head is mostly covered by a white hood. The only part of his skin that is visible is his mouth to his collar bone. His voice has a deep tone it and almost always sounds serious. He is very harsh in his words to Chojiro, never giving him slack for simple mistakes. Even though his words are harsh to his owner, he is only looking out for the safety of both them. When engaged in battle, his blood lust grows stronger as he gives Chojiro extra pushes to try and be stronger.

Release Form: When Nikuya is called upon, Chojiro’s blade darkens into an ebony sword. As the sword continues to transform, two buzz saws with three stars engraved into them appear in the center of the blade on each side. The hilt of the blade slowly grows down the handle as it forms a hand guard in the shape of a skull. Four small chains dangle from the bottom of the handle.

Abilities:

“Chakushu”: Chojiro launches the buzz saws off his blade soaring towards the enemy. Each buzz saw cost 5% of Chojiro’s reiatsu and 5% to recover each blade, so shooting both would cost 10% and recovering both would be 10%.

“Bazu”: For 10% reiatsu, Chojiro can spin the buzz saws attached to his sword. This effect can cut deeper into enemies and even stager some if locked in a blade clash. If only one saw is attached the cost is 5%.
