Reisudō: Path of the Hollow Wraith
Reisudō, or "Path of Wraith" is a series of techniques usable only by Hollow Wraiths, or Inner Hollows of Vizard Hopefuls that have taken over and fully possessed the Shinigami host. Only Hollow Wraiths that have unlocked their Mask can use these techniques, and only while using their masks. If their mask is ever broken, removed, or released, these techniques cease to function. Because of this, they can possess great power in exchange for their very limited duration.
{Class 3 Techniques}Technique Name: Reisudō #1: Form
Technique Class: 3 - 80 TTP
Technique Type: Reisudō.
Usable By: Hollow Wraith.
Technique Element: N/A.
Technique Cost: 400 Reiatsu, & 200 Reiatsu/post.
Description: The essence of a Hollow Wraith is that of control. Control over the Inner Shinigami, control of the Host's body, control over their very existence. The first Reisudō, Form, allows them to control their body and take on a bestial form, very much like that of an Arrancar's Resurrección. While using their Wraith Mask, this ability lets them adopt a form up to eight feet in height taller than that of their body, with up to an additional 6 limbs varying based on their chosen form. This form must be created at the time this technique is learned and the Hollow Wraith can know only one Form that they always transform into. The Form is allowed up to 2 Natural Weapons, such as a Beak or Talons, that have Spiritual Durability equivalent to 2x the Wraith's Offensive Stat. Cutting Power is equivalent to the Wraith's Offensive Stat. Additionally, the Form may have a Breath Weapon attack where an element fitting that of the Bestial Form is spewed from their mouth in a line ten feet wide and sixty feet long. This Breath can be used once per post, deals damage based on Reiatsu Strength, and costs 150 Reiatsu.
How to Use: The Wraith, while using their Wraith's Façade, takes on a Bestial Form by channeling reiatsu through the Mask to activate a pseudo-Resurrección like that of an Arrancar.
Incantation: N/A.
Drawbacks: Shikai and Bankai are unable to be used while using Form, leaving the Wraith with just the natural weapons, their breath weapon, and other Reisudō to be used during the transformation. The transformation costs standard Class 3 reiatsu cost for activation and half that per post for upkeep. These costs cannot be suspended with the use of the Façade Mask, but Hollow Wraith's Nectar can be used while using Form.

Technique Name: Reisudō #2: Shell
Technique Class: 3 - 80 TTP
Technique Type: Reisudō.
Usable By: Hollow Wraith.
Technique Element: Blood.
Technique Cost: 400 Reiatsu.
Description: Everybody these days has a Skin Layer Defense. Everybody important, that is. Akki, Quincy, Arrancar... This technique serves to give Hollow Wraiths a way of matching these fighters, especially the Arrancar. Reisudō #2: Shell is not a true Skin Layer Defense like Legatus Guard, Hierro, or Blut, but it is a defense that surrounds the skin. While the Façade Mask is active, the Wraith can let a bloody ooze emerge from their pores, covering parts of their body in armor. Far inferior to that of the other races Skin Layer Defenses, Shell only coats the arms up to the elbows, the legs up to the knees, the breastbone, and the entirety of the back of their torso. No part of the head is protected, especially not the Façade Mask.
This defense, however, has durability equal to physical Strength added to Reiatsu Strength. Every attack that hits this shell reduces its durability by 1/2 the OS of the attack if it doesn't have simple superiority. If the attack is even 1 point superior to the remaining durability of the shell it will be shattered on that section and cannot be restored for 1 full post. This shell is only powered by the Wraith's Façade, so it will fall off 2 posts after the Façade is removed. If the Façade returns before 2 posts are up, the Wraith must pay half the cost of the technique again to keep it from falling off.
How to Use: The Wraith draws on the suffering of their trapped Inner Shinigami and pulls on their life force, squeezing it from their pores and solidifying it across their skin in key areas.
Incantation: N/A.
Drawbacks: Standard Class 3 reiatsu cost to activate, limited duration based on Façade posts remaining. Doesn't cover everything and has a fairly low Class for clashes. The reiatsu cost cannot be suspended by the Wraith's Façade.

Technique Name: Reisudō #3: Howl
Technique Class: 3 - 80 TTP
Technique Type: Reisudō.
Usable By: Hollow Wraith.
Technique Element: Varies.
Technique Cost: 0 Reiatsu.
Description: The primal fear that is conjured by an ear piercing scream... That is what this technique seeks to invoke. When using their Facade, the Wraith can torture the Inner Shinigami, causing a wail to emit from the Inner world, through the Facade, and into the world as a powerful wave of emotion and pain. Each Wraith's Howl is different. If their Shikai has an element, this Howl will be filled with that element, existing as a cone shaped blast. For example, a Wraith with a flaming Zanpakutou would let out a scream of flames. This flaming scream would have two components. The fire, and the scream. The fire is just that, a fire that spreads out in a cone from the face at a 45 degree angle and stretches out for fifty feet at a speed of 500. The cone, at full size, would be fifty feet wide, fifty feet tall, and fifty feet long. Everything at close range would be struck fairly easily, but the farther out you go the easier it is to hide inside the rapidly expanding cone and avoid it that way.
For Zanpakutou without an element, the Howl's ring deals slashing damage instead.
Doing so would invoke the second component of the technique, the Scream. The scream is a powerful noise that exists only inside the Cone. It is ear piercing, shrieking, and painful noise. It is the sorrow and the pain and the emotion and the torture of the Inner Shinigami made manifest. Anyone caught in the scream that has the ability to hear (25+ Senses and no Type or Power inflicted deafness) would be subject to powerful emotional and physical pain in the ears. The eardrums are likely to burst if the target has at least 150 senses, causing loss of balance, loss of hearing, and bleeding from the orifice. Any less than 150 senses will just have ringing in the ears and the powerful emotional fear.
How to Use: Torture the Inner Shinigami with various means (such as showing them what the Wraith has been doing with their body and also physical torture) and use that pain to let out a Shinigami-fueled Scream.
Incantation: N/A.
Drawbacks: Limit once per post, disables use of voice for two posts afterwards. Requires use of voice to use.

{Class 1 Techniques}Technique Name: Reisudō #4: Sting
Technique Class: 1 - 250 TTP
Technique Type: Reisudō.
Usable By: Hollow Wraith.
Technique Element: Poison.
Technique Cost: 800 Reiatsu.
Description: The ultimate power of the Hollow Wraith is to imbue their Zanpakutō with their reiatsu, then infect a target with it upon any contact. Upon cutting into a living being of spiritual power, one of two things happen. First, if the target already has an Inner Hollow, that Hollow is drawn out into a possession immediately, relieving the being of their control over their body for 3 posts. This unfortunately has the effect of imposing the Wraith's Façade onto the target for those 3 posts, improving their ability to fight against the original Hollow Wraith. This releasing of the Inner Hollow weakens the target to further possession, causing them to be Taken Over again (without Façade bonuses) if they ever get below 25% of their maximum reiatsu, lasting for 3 posts again and then fully depleting them of reiatsu when the possession ends. In a Death Enabled or Damage Permanent thread, this effect of the poison is permanent until cured by 800+ Healing Expertise.
For a target that does not have an Inner Hollow, a piece of the Wraith's consciousness is injected into them, causing a scar in their soul that torments them. The Wraith haunts the being as if they were an Inner Hollow inside of that target. This can be potentially mentally debilitating. A 2 in Strength of Will, Battle Focus, or superior Offensive stat can resist the mental torture, else this haunting increases costs of all Techniques, both release and non-release, by a factor of 2 and disables the highest level release (Quinta Etapa for Akki, Bankai, etc.) If the target does not have the highest level release unlocked, this disability does not apply to them (for example, it can never deactivate Shikai).
How to Use: Generate a poison made up of the user's reiatsu and consciousness, coating their blade in it.
Incantation: N/A.
Drawbacks: As a Poison, the Poison Resist Skill of 3+ can completely ignore these effects. Costs standard Class 1 reiatsu cost to activate, a very steep price to pay, and lasts for only as long as the Façade lasts. This cost cannot be suspended by the Wraith's Façade. Requires the user to cut their target to have any effect. The poison on the blade fades immediately if the Wraith's Façade ends for any reason.
