Gefangener auf freiem Fuß (R, DP)

[✠Asmoskon Masurao✠]

Name: Gefangener auf freiem Fuß
Participants: Kitai Yoru vs Asmoskon Masurao
World: Human World
Death Setting: Damage Permanent
Rating: R
Location: Undisclosed island beach of Japan
Special Conditions: N/A
Circumstances: Asmoskon has taken it upon himself to deal with a loud annoyance plaguing the human world as of late. Having dealt with him in the past it’s time to use his experience to send the prison back into the jail house.

[✠Asmoskon Masurao✠]

Standing in the sand of a beach wasn’t something that Asmoskon had done in several years. In fact as he stood now staring out at the water he had to fight back the emotions that built up in his gut. This scene was familiar. Although it wasn’t the same beach it was close enough that the memories of that day had rushed back to the surface. Several years ago when he’d been consumed by hate, when he’d driven everyone away from him. The very day when he’d turned everything around once again. A day that he didn’t want to forget yet now didn’t seem all that important when everything had fallen apart in the end anyway.

A sorrowful dread draped over Asmoskon’s soul as the image of his love smiled in his mind. The woman who had pushed him to enter the darkness within his own soul yet pulled him back from that depth all the same. Perhaps the only person that one could claim he’d given everything for outside his family. The one that he’d made family. All the same, another individual that now was no more than a memory lingering on within him. Another token of regret that Asmoskon would wear as a badge indicating his experience in the war against the Emperor. Today though he had to be strong, had to fight off the emotions that dragged him away for so long.

Today he was here to put an end to a nuisance. He’d gotten information that the pain was here on the island, but where he wasn’t certain of at the moment. He didn’t have any sort of talent for tracking someone down so his best bet was to force him out. Luckily the Quincy had just the sort of idea to bring his target face to face. Something that would only work on perhaps a fraction of the spiritual community, but he was fairly confident it would work. Flexing his reiatsu Asmoskon essentially announced himself across the island, his spiritual pressure weighing down in everything like a second form of gravity.

“No time to waste.”

[Kitai Yoru]

"Ugh. This isn't right either!" He said to himself, standing knee deep in the ocean water. The air was salty, much like the other locations that he had scouted out, and it was honestly starting to get to him. Everyone loved the beach, but too much of a good thing would inevitably make you sick of it. And he was more than a little sick of trying and failing to find an appropriate location to fight this stupid sea monster. He thought an island with as few people as possible would be a suitable location to battle this thing, but there was something wrong about it.

He looked into to water. There was a sinking feeling from looking into its depths. A gut feeling of being watched came over him. The longer he stared into the ocean, the more he could feel the gaze of something ancient staring back at him. His vision started to darken, and the ocean twisted and churned. It swirled until it took the shape of an eye. It was larger than any natural being had any right to be, and that was just the eye alone. The beast itself was large enough to eat islands. Teeth as large as skyscrapers, scales that look older than mountains, and a hate that could burn out the sun with its heat. It said nothing.

And then he was snapped back into reality. Like a shock to his system, he started looking around, trying to see what had brought him out of whatever the fuck that was. His entire being felt cold, as if he had been submerged in the icy depths. He saw that he was much farther out in the water than he had before. His body shivered, and it wasn't from the cold. He returned to dry land, feeling a gravitational pressure pressing down on the entirety of the island. He really hoped there weren't any normal people near the guy who did that. He could already see a few animals that had dropped dead from the crushing weight of whomever was trying to antagonize him.

And he knew it was for him. He had to wonder if this was Priscilla again. He never had found out why she was trying to meet him. Heck, he hadn't even found out if she had actually meant to try and kill him, before his charming personality threw her into a flying rage. A grin spread across his face at the memory, as he walked through the woods. Kitai at one point was pretty decent at sensing energy, something he liked being able to do. But, his power has ever so slowly started to encroach on his other abilities. He lost the ability to sense reiatsu because of how massive his own reserves were, and he had a sinking suspicion that the same might be true for his physical abilities.

Needless to say, it took awhile to actually find the source of this Gravitational Pressure. The fact that this person has been flexing it for this long was proof enough that they were looking for trouble. After a long enough time, he managed to find the person behind the pressure. As Kitai broke through the tree line, he could see him. The man stood, waiting for him. Were he not standing there, this place might have been beautiful. Kitai's bare feet stepped into the cove, joining this guy. His toes slipping beneath the sand would probably be the last pleasant feeling he'd have for at least the next ten minutes, so he made sure to enjoy the sensation.

"Well well well! If it isn't you." He called out to his old opponent. The two of them have clashed on several occasions. If his memory served him correctly, the first had also been by the ocean, back when he had still been alive. The latest was when he screwed Kitai out of some parts he had been looking to 'acquire' from some scientists who thought too highly of themselves, and too little of the average human life. The first he had managed to escape from the Quincy's onslaught, while the latter ended in a draw. "What does that make this? Our third date? Hahahaha! Here to wine and dine me? Candlelit dinner on the beach? Is a mariachi band going to come out from the trees? HAHAHAHAHA! Why are you here?"

Kitai's voice was a mixture of mocking and jovial, finding an old opponent again like this to be amusing. Like an old friend, since enemies trying to kill him was the closest thing the Saika had to companionship. Well, aside from Jeff. He also wasn't far off base from Priscilla either, given that this guy was a Quincy and all that. His chains spilled out of his oversized sleeves, long enough to brush against the ground, swinging lightly with every motion. He was thankful for the distraction, as he wanted to try his best to forget just what happened in the ocean earlier.

{Darkskill Level 1}Dark Skill Level 1 Property:] [The first stage of his release allows him to create gigai-like bodies for him to enter and use as he sees fit. In order to create a body, Kitai must spend 25% of his current reiatsu, but must spend at least 250 in order to use the technique. The strength and durability of the bodies is based off the amount of reiatsu Kitai has used during the thread. For every 100 reiatsu Kitai has used in the thread, it will increase the strength, speed, and durability by 10. Each body comes with a 300 to start in all three of these stats. If the user has physical stats higher than the base 300, their starting physical stat or stats will be changed to that higher number. The highest the physical stats the body can have 1000.

The strength of the body is a sort of false one. While the bodies themselves are strong, it is merely a tool, not truly living so to speak. While a real body would be able to handle such strength and speed, this one cannot. And like all tools, they have a breaking point. Those wearing the body will find themselves unable to use main benefits that high physical stats would normally grant. The benefits of having high strength are forever lost to the user, unless they already had them before putting on the Gigai.

Much like a tool, once the body uses too much power, it begins to quickly wear out. The max output a body can use varies on the user. The bodies are based on the user, and thus match their max potential, even if the bodies themselves should be stronger. A user with 50 strength or speed, can only ever make the bodies reach 150 strength or speed. If someone had 400 in strength or speed, they would be able to bring out the full potential of the bodies, and reach 1000 in either stat.

However, like any machine, running at full power causes a reaction in the bodies. The body, and by extension the user, have no issues with stamina of any kind after this point, never running out after it breaks its limits for the first five post, using a sort of Hysterical Strength to force itself to keep going. After the five posts will drain stamina like normal. Normally a body can last indefinitely, but for every post the user pushes their physical stats past their limits no further than double their base stats, it drains a post, while over that pushes it by two posts. The body has ten of these posts before it dies, ejecting the user of it from the maimed corpse. Hitting 1000 in either stat will cost the bodies two posts, regardless of the the user's base stats.

The creation of the body is instant, forming around Kitai if he so chooses, or in his hand. Bodies can be exited at any time the wearer pleases. The only oddities that make the body stand out from normal humans is that the first stage of a Dark Skill will still shine through, and the chains on their soul will still appear on the new body, but otherwise, the body will be have an appearance of whatever Kitai wishes it to look like. Size of the bodies follows the strength rules for sizes.

So long as the body is worn, Hell has a much harder time finding him. For every three posts that a Saika is in the body, the count on the duration of his escape will go down by one for every three posts they make. Can start a thread with a body for an additional 500 reiatsu of the base cost, without activating his dark skill. Any damage the body takes is not fully transferred to him. Damage is reduced by fifty percent, and attacks that would kill the body will eject the soul before it can be damaged too much. Fatal damage done to the body will be reduced to the point of just barely avoiding death. The body cannot heal via the normal Saika regeneration, but his soul underneath is still able to. The healing done to the soul will not transfer to the body. Once he exits a body, the stats will be reset to how it was before he entered the body. After a body is destroyed or dies, it goes onto a three post cooldown before he can create another one. This does not count as a stat boosting technique. If a body is healed, Kitai will not be healed.

[✠Asmoskon Masurao✠]

Continuing to unleash his spiritual pressure across the island wasn’t something that Asmoskon would normally do, however it was something that he had to do for the moment. He had to make sure his target came to him for if he didn’t he risked allowing him to get away. Opening a portal and leaving was something that could be accomplished in little more than a moment. It meant hunting down the most capable entities required planning and study. So for today at least Asmoskon had to look past the wild life on this island and just hope that enough of them could hold out for several minutes.

Standing as he was the sand between his toes was more calming than he believed it had any right to be. Just one of those sensations that one would experience as a kid believing it to be unlike anything else, then just as quickly that thought would almost never cross them again. Now though it brought a question to the forefront of his mind. Was this a good sign or a bad one? He wasn’t really sure nor was he all that certain he wasn’t just overthinking at the moment. “Price I pay for taking a vacation.”

Several minutes later Asmoskon heard the approach of the one he sought to eliminate. The moment that Kitai came through the trees Asmoskon ceased the presence of his spiritual pressure. As was expected virtually from the moment that he appeared the citizen of the pit began to run his mouth. It was a trait that defined him even while he had been alive. Something that Asmoskon wasn’t sure whether it was a bad trait or a good one. All he knew for certain was he could recognize Kitai immediately regardless of his appearance just by the way he spoke.

“Run your mouth all you like, it’ll be awhile before you manage to get back up from the pit this time. So, say whatever’s on your mind while I finish my job. Although idiotic I do give ya credit. You’ve at least gotten the attention of others now. Strange when one does better after a couple years in the pit. Maybe you’ll get even better after I send you back again.” Not one to usually poke fun at real threats, Asmoskon made an exception knowing that Kitai would think longer on his remark than necessary.

Asmoskon watched as Kitai’s large chains essentially dropped from inside his sleeves. Mid ranged weapons unless he could make them grow longer. Kitai wasn’t that easy to deal with though, strictly backing off and relying on distance with any of his bows would only play into Kitai’s hand. Both of them at this point knew at least some of the basics about how the other fought. So this was going to be much different than fighting someone for the first time. A reason why Asmoskon didn’t form his bow nor get into a stance, instead grinning and waiting for Kitai while flowing reiatsu into his back.

Remaining Reiatsu: 1700/2500

[Kitai Yoru]

Kitai could feel his eyebrow twitch at the jab. The Saika made a large shrugging motion with his arms and shoulders. "It's not my fault the Shinigami and Arrancar have all the cool toys hidden in their vaults. Hehehehe, they were pretty much begging someone to break in to steal them." A black mist started to pour out from the center of his chest. "I'm guessing that's why you're here? Bending low and taking jobs from the Shinigami, huh? For some reason, I never pictured Patchy the Pirate to be an assassin, but cheers to you for enforcing stereotypes!"

By now, the fog was on the ground, coating everything around him, up to five feet away on all sides. He moved his hands behind his back, leaning forward in a taunting manner. He walked forward, slowly but surely making his way towards his opponent. "You know, you never did tell me your name. What did I used to call you? Cyclops? Patchy? Tylor the Tattoo'd Terror?" He mused to himself, left hand tapping his cheek, pretending to be deep in thought. Meanwhile, an orb of reiatsu formed in the hand behind his back, created with twice the amount of reiatsu Asmoskon had access to. It was quickly dropped into an unseen portal. Whether or not the Quincy noticed, it would be hard to do anything against it.

Getting ever closer, the Lunatic swung his arms out to the sides, chains flailing from the motion. "Hehehehehe, don't worry! When I kill you, you won't go to your precious 'Emperor' you Quincy all seem to worship. HAHAHAHA! I'll do something worse! I'll make you live!" As he reached twenty feet away from the Soldier, the chains around his arms would perk up, before surging forward. The black metal moving like a snake, intent on striking down the experienced fighter. The chains flew at Asmoskon with a speed of 600, and a force of 1,800. The chains had a reach of 36 feet, and would follow the man until he managed to escape their range.

The Lunatic would be laughing as the Soldier dodged around his chains, delighted in making the man who screwed him over twice dance to his tune. Though Kitai didn't know it for certain, the chains were far stronger than the Quincy could hope to block. Still, this is starting slow for the Saika. He wanted to see how this guy has improved over the years. And wasn't that a sobering thought. He's fought this guy too many times for him to not know his name. Ah well, if he didn't tell him his name, he'd force it out of his reanimated corpse.

{Techniques Used}Technique Name: [The Black Fog] Mastered

Class: [1]

Technique Type: [Hell Techniques]

Usable By: [Hell Races]

Technique Element: [Shadow]

Technique Fluff: [Those who fear the darkness are wise. Evil in its most primal form thrives in the shadows, always on the edge of the light. But while it is rare when the shadows of the underworld touch the land of the living, the results are always spoken of for generations. The Black Fog is an ability generated by those who have seen the proverbial void, and gazed into it. These people are those with hearts blacker than most, and live in perpetual chaos, misery, and hate. Those who use this technique are often those who have given up on life, and have let themselves fall into despair, or have done so at least once in their existence. This ability was made to show that, no matter how much hope there is the world, and no matter how happy the world becomes, evil will never leave the hearts of mankind, and will always linger. The darkest shadows linger behind the brightest lights.

The Black Fog is generated from the soul of the user, spilling from their chests, completely enshrouding their lower bodies in a mist of darkness at all times. From there, the fog begins to spread over the ground, seemingly consuming it, with the top of it lingering three feet above it. The Black Fog is thick to the point where no light can ever pierce it, consuming it in its entirety. The mist does more than feed off the light however. The shadows absorb all forms of energy that come into contact with it, be it heat, light, or reiatsu. Especially reiatsu.

The air above the fog is quickly drained of any lingering reiatsu, preventing anyone from creating airground platforms of any kind, as well as preventing any stepping abilities. However, those who stand in the blackened air start to suffer from the effects of this immediately. The moment anyone comes into contact with it will quickly lose their power, before fading away beneath the darkness, never to be seen again.

But this isn't what makes this ability so feared, although that is a part of it. The darkness is a sponge for souls, but it doesn't let that energy go to waste. Once it has absorbed enough souls, this ability starts to create monsters. Often titanic beings of pure hate and rage emerge from the shadows, climbing out of the nothing, existing for only destruction. The monsters can take on many forms, ranging from ogers, wolves, or even the well known dragon. These creatures stand anywhere from seven feet in height, to a towering fifty.

The being are extremely durable as well, needing the strongest of champions to slay them. The Black Fog naturally doesn't harm them, and are immune to the effects of it. No matter their shape, these creatures are only as smart as an animal, beatial in thought, maybe as smart as a lion.

All the air above the mist is stripped of reiatsu, no matter the distance. Any ability that touches the fog is absorbed, so long as the offensive stat is lower than the user's, adding the reiatsu used for the ability to the reiatsu counter.]


Technique Effects:

A Black mist spills out of the user's chest, quickly covering the ground around them, hovering two feet off the lowest surface. The Mist spreads five feet per post, times how many posts it has been active. 1 post equals five feet, 2 is ten, 3 fifteen, and so on. The air above the Black Fog cannot be used for any form of airground above it. Anyone in the fog loses 250 reiatsu per post, and loses the same amount just by touching it. Non- spiritual humans, plants, and animals die instantly when they come into contact with the fog.

Any techs used while inside the fog will charge the fog by half the amount paid for the original tech. Once the fog has collected 500 reiatsu, the user can summon a creature of the writer's choice to attack or cause general chaos. The user is also able to wait, and have the fog store its reiatsu in order to summon multiple beasts at once. The creature does not obey the caster, nor is it affected by the draining effects of the fog.

The stats of the creatures are always 800 strength, 400 speed, and 150 in all sensory stats, with 800 durability. The user is able to pay 500 in order to charge the mist. The Cost to maintain is 100 reiatsu, and is used to charge the fog. Fog lasts three posts after the user stops paying for it, and is unable to summon beasts after they stop.

How to use technique: [Mentioned above]

Technique Drawbacks: [The Black Fog, cannot be thrown around like a weapon, and will only remain on the ground, and around the user's lower body. Kicking with the fog around their legs will not drain opponents of reiatsu. The user is not immune to the draining effects of the fog, and is drained every post. Monsters will not obey anything the caster of the Fog commands of them.]

Technique Name: [Faustian Bargain] Learned

Class: [1]

Technique Type: [Saika Technique]

Usable By: [Saika]

Technique Element: [Reiatsu, if any]

Technique Description and Effects: [The Faustian Bargain is a technique born out of desperation for the Saika. The user pays any amount of reiatsu they wish, concentrating it into a super dense ball of reiatsu. This ball is then sucked into a small portal to Hell to grow. For every post it is in Hell, the ball absorbs reiatsu, equal to 25% of what it was initially sent in with. At any point, the user can draw the ball out of Hell, and consume the reiatsu to add the reiatsu back to their reserves. For example, if the user were to send 1000 reiatsu into Hell, and waited four posts, it would come back with 2000, and they would gain that to their reiatsu pool.]

How to use technique: [Stated above.]

Technique Drawbacks: [This ability is directly messing with Hell, a very bad thing for any Saika. As such, for every post that the ball of Reiatsu is in Hell, the Saika loses an extra post out of Hell. This means if the ball was in Hell for four posts, they would lose four extra posts, on top of their normal out of Hell count.]

Technique Name: [Bladed Chains] Learned

Class: [3]

Technique Type: [General Sinner Technique]

Usable By: [Hell Races]

Technique Element: [None]

Technique Description and Effects: [Well, if you can't get rid of the nigh indestructible chains, why not put them to good use? This ability have two parts to it.

1: The chains of Hell torment the denizens endlessly, so why not share the misery? Learning this ability influences the blades, giving them the ability to cut through anything as easily as a normal spiritual blade can, regardless of the chains not changing in appearance, still as rounded as ever. The offensive stat for the chains is based off either the highest Spiritual stat, or the user's Strength stat, whichever is higher. Chains are unable to cut their owner. This is a passive ability, and is unable to be turned off.

2: Through some heavy handed use of reiatsu, the user can extend and manipulate the chains to do as they please. For strength users, the chains will extend upto thirty feet, and will move at either a speed equal to their speed stat, or at a speed of 600. For spiritual users, the size scales off of their highest spiritual stat. For every 50 they have in their higher stat, the chains can extend another foot, and can move at either 600, or the user's speed. Cost is 100 reiatsu every post.]

How to use technique: [Pay the cost for chains. Cutting power is permanently active]

Technique Drawbacks: [Cost.]

[✠Asmoskon Masurao✠]

A one-sided conversation in the making was unfolding like so many others that Asmoskon found himself a part of more of the same even if this time he was facing down the one individual that spoke more than anyone and everyone else. “It doesn’t matter who hired me when you piss off and steal from nearly everyone.” Asmoskon was preparing for combat to ensue, now pulling in the reiatsu of the environment around him to the black cross positioned over his chest. This wasn’t someone that he would be able to take down easily which meant he’d at the very least have to use some of his real power.

Black fog emanating off his target being the first move that declared combat. A technique that Asmoskon didn’t believe he’d seen in the past although he was certain it looked similar to what he’d done before in order to bring out the large monstrosities. So far though none were stamping out from the fog. “A remark on stereotypes from the lunatic who crawls out from Hell, obviously not one for perspective are you.” A black short bow materializing from his reiatsu in his left hand now.

The swinging of the chains was all Asmoskon would need to know that his target already had enhanced himself quite a bit. The immense impact against the sand along with the easy movements he could manage despite how long they were. He was both fast and strong right now. Asmoskon’s calm, analytical approach seemed to break down though for the moment Kitai remarked about serving the Emperor an arrow was fired from the short bow. The arrow formed from Asmoskon's pitch black reiatsu with crimson blood edging flew through the air right towards Kitai.

In that brief moment Asmoskon made several actions the first of which was raising his left arm upwards while impressing his reiatsu into an arrow. Second was activating his primary power property as a Quincy. Then in the span of a millisecond the arrow was fired before Kitai finished what he was saying. Enhanced to double the normal speed of an arrow moving at 1600 the arrow would strike the back of Kitai’s throat as he spoke. Asmoskon knew of the enhanced durability Kitai normally possessed thus the reason for his power property. So long as his arrow hit Kitai a wound would appear regardless of how tough he’d made himself already.

SPOILER: Click to show

Class 4 Property: Power Property: Never a Wasted Shot
Asmoskon's Primary power property enables every arrow fired from him to inflict harm upon any reiatsu entity struck by them. How this works is very simple if Asmoskon's arrows were to make contact with someone that prevents the physical damage from occurring then physical damage will appear on that entity in the same spot that the arrow would have struck. Damage inflicted by this ability however are only fifty percent in damage compared to the actual physical damage that would have been inflicted naturally. This means that if an arrow would have penetrated four inches into an entity then by this ability the wound will only be two inches and half as thick.

This property does though effect entities through extensions of their reiatsu in a different manner than physical contact listed above in the previous paragraph. If an arrow managed to make contact with a different focused form of reiatsu than the arrow will actually seap into the opposing reiatsu without causing a clash or inflicting any sort of opposition. What does happen from this is a instant spike of pain inflicted to the location of the entity that cast the opposing reiatsu structured. As an example if an opposing entity were to cast a projectile reiatsu technique from their hand then that hand would feel as if the arrow had just pierced through it until the end of Asmoskon's next post. This aspect of the property doesn't work on entities that possess a spiritual offensive stat 50% higher than Asmoskon.

[Kitai Yoru]

The grin on Kitai's face widened at the man responding in kind to his insults. "Ohh, how scathi-GAK!" Any retort he might have had, however, was cut off by an arrow lodging itself firmly down his throat. Apparently the Quincy didn't like how often he ran his mouth, so he decided to stick and arrow in it. He had a brief flashback to the last batter they had, where he did much the same thing. Unfortunately for the Quincy, it seems he had somehow managed to forget about the two chains that had been flying towards him. At the same time that the arrow slammed into Kitai's ever-running mouth, the two chains ran the Quincy through.

The Bladed Chains were sharp enough, and powerful enough to cut through the Quincy's flesh without a hint of resistance. If Kitai hadn't been glaring at the man as they impaled him, he would have assumed that he had missed. The blackened metal lodged themselves deep in the man's stomach, running him all the way through, as the flesh twitched and spasmed against the chains that continued to cut into him. The wounds mirrored one another, stabbing just under the bottom of the ribs, with only an inch separating the chains from one another. The pain would undoubtedly be horrendous.

The chains extended another two feet from the Quincy's back, as they wrapped around one another in a twisting motion, stopping right before they would cut through his spine. Kitai, meanwhile, pull the arrow that had been obstructing his mouth, coughing violently as he did so. He wanted to retort, he really, really did, but the Quincy had managed to do something that no one else had before; they managed to shut him up. He could feel the damage his real body suffered from that attack. Luckily for him, the damage didn't feel too big, and he could already feel his body start to regenerate the damage.

Using his Bladed Chains, he started to walk closer to his attacker, dragging him closer by retracting the chains as he did so. He could try to escape the chains, they cut through his body like warm butter, but the damage he would do to himself would be massive, and very likely would be lethal. Kitai would bring him as close as five feet, if the Quincy didn't manage to escape before that point. If they did reach that point, Kitai would quickly build up a small amount of reiatsu in his chest, and point blank release a Cutback Assault on the area, destroying everything within 200 meters.

{Cutback Assault}Technique Name: [Cutback: Assault] Mastered

Class: [1]

Technique Type (Kido, Hollow/Arrancar Technique, Human World Dweller Technique, Other): [Cutback]

Usable By (Technique is available to which races?): [All Races]

Technique Element: [None]

Technique Description and Effects (Explain appearance, powers, and effect):

Traditional cutback is triggered by a physical strike from a spiritually inferior source. Among those with immense spiritual pressure it is a useful defense. This technique converts that same cutback into an offense. The user gathers all of their spiritual energy at their core before releasing it outward with a burst. An invisible wave bursts outward with a speed and force of 600, pushing back everything in its path. It functions like a larger Martial Discipline: Ken to all those around. The user may choose to spend an additional reiatsu to increase the range of the wave. At its lowest range, the wave will travel 200 meters in every direction. If the user doubles the cost, this range will also double to 400 meters in every direction. But get this. If the cost is TRIPLED, the radius will also triple to a whopping 800 meters.

However, the real effect of the technique only kicks in when the wave makes contact with any individual. If the difference in spiritual pressure between the user and target is great enough, this technique will automatically inflict the same damage they would face had they triggered cutback. This property is what makes Cutback: Assault truly deadly.

How to use technique (How is it activated?): [Insert Below]

Charge reiatsu and release it.

Technique Drawbacks (Limitations, repercussions for use, etc) (Insert Below)

This technique costs 300 reiatsu to use, and it must be mastered before employed in battle. It may only be activated once every 3 posts, and while it’s on cooldown, the user loses access to natural cutback. However, that is hardly the most serious drawback. As this technique causes the sudden output of such a large amount of energy, it puts a heavy strain on the body, worsening all injuries the user suffered prior to activation. When used the first time, if the user has any deep lacerations or stab injuries, they will begin to bleed profusely, giving them 5 posts before they lose consciousness. When used the second time, even if the user only had thin cuts, these will widen and deepen as blood rapidly escapes them, giving the user 5 posts before they pass out from blood loss. After employed a third time, even if the user is completely unharmed, their nose and eyes will begin bleeding. In fact, their internal organs would be struggling to function as the strain of a third Cutback: Assault also caused them hemorrhage. The internal bleeding would cause the user to pass out in 5 posts after activating the technique.

[✠Asmoskon Masurao✠]

A quick little arrow shot from the bow was enough to keep this maniac from rambling on like he always did; however it wasn’t enough to keep from sending out the chains that he had cast out from his sleeves. A little test Asmoskon wanted to try out was whether or not Kitai could keep going with such a sudden bolt of pain in his throat, yet it seemed something on that level wouldn’t be enough to stall Kitai for more than a moment. He’d have to do something that entailed causing much more harm to actually keep the Saika down. The chains being sent out towards him moved at a speed that quite frankly was shocking. A speed and power behind them that Asmoskon knew was only achievable by those that usually sank everything they had to offer into only those aspects of themselves. Enough to catch the Quincy off-guard.

Leaping backwards with Movement to enhance his speed in order to put some distance between them. His right arm thrusting forward would obviously be the sort of motion one would expect from some sort of attack like an arrow being fired from his palm. No such arrow appeared though instead his black reiatsu would appear slamming right into Kitai’s front sending him backwards with a force of 800. Not enough to overpower him yet this wasn’t something that he’d be able to see coming and would hit out of nowhere enough that Asmoskon bet it would knock him backwards although it wouldn’t cause him any sort of damage. “Nice little tools you’ve gotten since last time.”

The fog was growing further and further away from Kitai, something that Asmoskon could recognize although the significance of it couldn’t be measured. Having no knowledge of what the fog did meant that he’d have to keep away from it regardless. “Close combat is off the table; mid-range is definitely in his favor. He’s not going to let me put enough distance between us that the advantage will fall completely to me.” Processing the fight so far Asmoskon flips backwards, solidifying the air beneath his feet in order to throw off one of the attacks coming his way. Landing on his feet he’d waste no time firing off another arrow from the short bow executing the same shot as the first with enhanced speed aimed for the head.

Not one to make the same move twice though Asmoskon’s real attack was hidden inside the arrow that moved so fast Kitai would have an insane time tracking and reacting to it. Crossing the fifty feet between them now in an instant only to separate into two arrows. Asmoskon wasn’t splitting his arrow like a normal Quincy could though. Instead, he was executing a technique known as Verwustung. A thin thread of reiatsu connected the two arrows. The arrows once split would soar past Kitai’s upper body until the thread pulled back on them to fly around Kitai tying him up for a moment before slamming into one another in an explosion large enough to engulf Kitai’s body. The speed of the arrows moving at 1600 along with the fact Asmoskon’s power property was still active gave him enough to bet on that Kitai may get hurt.

If Kitai managed to dodge or break the arrows before the technique would be completed, then it meant Asmoskon was right back to the drawing board. Keep enough distance away that the chains wouldn’t be able to touch him while making sure that Kitai didn’t execute a step technique to close the distance. Taking in the reiatsu from the sky around him was something that only took a moment although he was limited now that he was putting in a bit of effort against this target. Testing out something else now Asmoskon would fire another fire from the short bow yet this time as it neared Kitai it would arc downwards positioned to pierce his right foot. This last one, unlike the others, moved at the normal speed of a Quincy Arrow.

Technique Name: Verwüstung (Devastation)
Class: 5
Technique Type: Quincy Technique
Usable By: Quincy (All)
Technique Element: None

Technique Description and Effects: This technique at first can't be distinguished from a standard Quincy arrow until after it has been fired from the bow. Once the focused arrow is fired it will split into two arrows connected to one another through a rope formed of Reiatsu. The effect of the rope allows the arrows to wrap around the target multiple times restraining them until the arrows eventually connect together and cause an explosion of spiritual energy.

How to use technique: Summon not one, but two Quincy arrows that are merged together into a single shot, and then release them to split-apart mid-flight.

Technique Drawbacks: The technique can simply be evaded through swift movements and dodging the inner spiritual connection. Only those who an offensive stat greater than the user are able to break free from the rope and free themselves once entangled.

Technique Name: Kyōsei sa Remasu
Class: 2
Technique Type: Energy Generation
Usable By: Human World Dweller
Technique Element: Other

Technique Description and Effects: Through incredible effort and training that links the mind and body through the energy of reiatsu this technique allows the user to maneuver objects with an extension of their reiatsu. This enables the user to push/pull objects as well as levitate them with their mind as long as they stay focused and have the Reiatsu Strength to lift the object. In short this technique is a weak outline form of Telekinesis.

The force that can be exerted both with pull/pushing is equal to the Reiatsu Strength of the user comparable to the strength stat. The user can only levitate things that they would be able to lift if they Reiatsu Strength was treated as the Strength stat. The user can only use this technique through body movements such as their arms and hands unless they have mastered it at which point it can be done telepathically with thought. Moving on to very specific examples sense most people can think of a few times something like this has been done.

Different body positions or movements are able to focus this technique into specific telekinetic forms. The actual number of different executions is near endless and only bound by the imagination and concentration of the user. For example a user who holds out his hand and clenches the air can use this technique to create a force of reiatsu that acts like an extension of their hand. The technique will not push/pull like this technique's base intention, but instead will allow the user to act accordingly as if they had a hand that they can control with their own from a distance.

The amount of reiatsu that this technique requires to do certain things is dependent on the actual usage and how focused the user is at the time. When pulling/pushing anything it requires 100 reiatsu, levitation/control requires 80 reiatsu, specific branch off uses such as choking individuals requires 150 reiatsu. This also includes focusing the telekinetic force into defenses or other imaginative things. One thing that should be noted though is that a user can savor their reiatsu by not using this technique at the utmost degree of their Reiatsu Strength. If a user only focuses half of their RS or less then the costs of every action are halved as well.

How to use technique: This technique requires the focus of the individual on whatever they wish to move and how they want to move it or what type of telekinetic structure they wish to create.

Technique Drawbacks: The user can extend this technique a total of fifty feet for each level of skill reaching a maximum at one hundred and fifty feet. The major drawback of this technique is the amount of stress/pressure that is placed on the actual mind of the user. Any user that attempts to lift something that is beyond the strength of this technique will find they their mind is being torn apart much like how muscles would react. This along with the fact that when something over powers this technique is enough that the user will actually begin to bleed from their nose.

At this point most people should realize that this technique has a disadvantage that makes it not always even worth using in combat. Once the nose has begun to bleed the damage raises even further if the technique is even used again. The nose will continue to bleed and pain will extend throughout the body of the user every time it's used. If the technique is overpowered again the results skyrocket to the point that almost no one is strong enough to continue due to blood beginning to flow from their ears. Finally if continued the blood flows from these two sections while the pain has intensified if overpowered a third time though blood will flow from the bottom of the eyes and the user will simply shut down and drop unconscious regardless of skills. The only way that a user can be brought back during a thread is if they are healed in some manner time to recover will not allow recovery.

[Kitai Yoru]

The Quincy managed to somehow avoid his chains in the blink of an eye, flipping over them with some sort of step technique. 'Well isn't that annoying.' He thought to himself, before the jumpy man launched a wave of black reiatsu at him. Kitai's eyes widened at the sight, as his entire body was thrown back by a wave of force. Kitai recalled his chains, using them to form a shield around his body, protecting him from any further assault. Normally, he wouldn't have bothered, but the fact that the arrows this man were launching at him could get around his bodies were enough to put him further on guard.

Which turned out to be a wise decision, as the cyclops launched another attack at him, again faster than the eye could perceive. As such, he couldn't tell exactly what happened, but he heard two projectiles whiz by his chains, still acting as a shield. He could have sworn he also heard a snap, but it was too fast for him to know for certain. That bow he was using, all he could remember Amalia was that Whore launching arrows from that same short bow. The fact his arrows could apparently explode as well only increased the similarities between the two.

Rubbing his throat, a second arrow was fired from the bow, but this time he could actually see it coming. He probably wouldn't have been able to, but the distance between them was great enough to give him time to react. Like the other two, this one was cut down by his chains, never even reaching the lunatic. He looked at the fog around his feet. It was fifteen feet in every direction by now, and he could feel the power stored in it was sufficient. Between the links in the chains, Kitai could see him opponent had decided to exploit his apparent lack of ranged options. That just wouldn't do.

"All I see, hack, is mine to claim!" He said to himself, looking directly at the cross the Quincy had around his neck. Unbenounced to the Quincy, a mark on the palm of his right hand glowed a dark green color. Kitai knew that those crosses were important to the Quincy, though not entirely sure why. He knew that they all had them, however, and he wanted to see why. If Asmoskon didn't pay the toll, his cross would find itself in the hands of the sinner. But even if he did not, that wouldn't stop Kitai from doing what else he had in mind.

The hands of three giants simultaneously shot out of the fog, and slammed into the sand. With the power he had stored in the fog, he had summoned three fog beasts. Just to screw with the Quincy, he decided to get artistic with his creations. The first was a man dressed in blue spandex, with a bright, 'kill-me yellow' X on his chest, wrapping around his torso. There was also a red and gold visor on his face, making it look as if he only had one large red eye. The next was a stereotypical looking pirate, with a purple captains coat, and an eyepatch over his right eye, and a cheap plastic hook for a hand. The last on was a man who looked like Robin Hood, but with more green spandex, and a domino mask. Each of them stood forty feet in height.

The three giants gave a roaring battle cry, as they charged towards the human, kicking up dust as their massive feet impacted the yellow sand. They moved at a speed of 400, and they held a strength of 800. The mighty beasts would try their hardest to strike down the archer, but Kitai knew that they would fail. These beasts were here to see how well this man could react to multiple foes, to see just how fast he could react. Kitai followed in their wake, chains encircling him, cutting at everything and everything in the air within five feet of him.

This man had the advantage of speed and range, both things he seemed more than eager to make use of. Kitai would have to play defensively for now, since his bodies couldn't block his arrows. Wrath would destroy them, but he wasn't willing to play the mindless berserker right now. He had many options available to use, but he wasn't willing to sink that low just yet. Kitai scoffed at the thought of being forced to use a step technique to follow this man, but if he kept taking potshots at him from so far away, he'd be forced to do something... drastic.

{Mark of Sin Greed}Technique Name: [Mark of Sin: Greed] Mastered

Class: [3]

Technique Type: [General Sinner techniques]

Usable By: [Hell Races]

Technique Element: [None]

Technique Description and Effects: [Being stuck in the bad end of the afterlife tends to bring out of some of the more negative aspects of the soul. One of seven that can be concentrated and brought forth in a physical form. This manifests as a mark on the body. For Greed, this mark is branded on the palm of the dominant hand of the user. Greed is a very dangerous ability for any who value their belongings. Greed lets the user take anything within their line of sight. So long as whatever they are claiming isn't alive, they can take it in an instant. For most things, this requires little energy, maybe 25 reiatsu, and can be used every post. For things with actual power however, this gets tricky.

To take something for a being with power requires actual effort on the users part. Costing 500 reiatsu, the embodiment of Greed will attempt to steal their belongings. In order to do this, they must have their original highest spiritual stat be twenty five percent higher then their victim's original highest offensive stat. The opponent can resist this if they pay twice as much reiatsu as the user did to activate this ability. This ability cannot be negated against objects with less than two classes of this technique.]

How to use technique: [The user says aloud, 'All I see is mine to claim', and whatever they look at will instantly be in their hand, and fully under the command of the user.]

Technique Drawbacks: [If Greed fails, it will go onto a three post cool down.]

[✠Asmoskon Masurao✠]

Witnessing his reiatsu slam into Kitai sending the escapie of the pit backwards was reassuring that his target wasn’t the best when dealing against things too fast for his puny little mind to follow. The chains that were such a threat retreated away in order to be used as a potential barrier. A decent enough play that may work on the majority yet how were they going to protect him from an archer? “A lot of big talk for someone that’s already on defense.” Asmoskon remarked knowing that Kitai was one to run his mouth and wouldn’t let him have the last laugh in any situation.

Although it seemed that Kitai was susceptible to being harmed it appeared that techniques on the weaker side couldn’t work on him. The arrows that had split apart in order to twirl around him simply continued to move past his body before impaling themselves in the ground. A good bit of information that Asmoskon would be able to use not just in this fight but whenever this pit lurker broke out again. The third arrow fired wasn’t enhanced and Asmoskon could see that despite everything Kitai was skilled enough with those chains to knock his arrow from the sky.

The block fog around Kitai’s feet was growing, something that told Asmoskon it was definitely a technique that grew stronger the longer that it was channeled. Taking a moment to inhale, filling his lungs for the next exchange between them, Asmoskon's cross did much the same as the reiatsu of the environment was pulled within once again then funneled into Asmoskon. What happened next Asmoskon hadn’t experienced before and would make sure to alert others of in the future. Kitai spoke something vague and Asmoskon felt as if the dark reiatsu of the pit lurker was upon his neck.

Resisting the reiatsu of his foe mostly on instinct Asmoskon felt a large portion of the reiatsu that he possessed within himself stolen. A technique that Asmoskon would have to watch out for which meant the moment Kitai began to speak those words again . . he wouldn’t. What happened next was something that Asmoskon knew Kitai could unleash yet thought he would have held out in using quite a bit longer. Either way though giants of ridiculous appearances spawned out from the black fog.

The way that each of them looked told Asmoskon that Kitai still had enough courage in this battle to make his usual jokes even if he couldn’t quite mouth them out at the moment. Asmoskon wasn’t far enough away that he had more than a moment or two before the giants would be on him. He knew what he had to do though. Activating another of his unique abilities Asmoskon fired three arrows in rapid succession from the short bow each one aimed at a different giant. Immediately though Kitai would be to reconcile the arrows. Not the typical that Asmoskon had been using, these were the sort that looked like miniature versions of the Quincy himself.

Flying through the air each one with a different expression on the face. Asmoskon himself now flying downwards through the air, no longer suspending himself in the sky with air ground. As he falls downwards though the Quincy fires another arrow, this one with the enhanced speed that the first few had been blessed to possess. This fourth arrow wasn’t aimed at any of the giants, but Kitai himself. Flying at more than double the speed of the others it would reach Kitai in the same moment. Each arrow that met the giants would slam into the massive foes detonating themselves the moment contact is made.

The scene on the beach becoming something more from a Michael Bay movie in the course of three seconds wasn’t expected however the three massive pillars of black reiatsu each rising up eighty feet meant Asmoskon was just as guilty. The explosion of his arrows was blocking pretty much either Kitai and Asmoskon from seeing anything for the next few moments. The only thing though was the arrow that’d been fired at Kitai. One that flew through the air and during the explosion of the other three formed a bow in its left hand. While in the concealment that the explosions gave Asmoskon capitalized by absorbing more of the reiatsu from the environment into his cross.

The miniature arrow with a smile as overly big and creepy as a cartoon fired off five arrows at about three feet from Kitai. Each arrow would curve slightly allowing them to strike Kitai in each limb and his chest should he not move. As for the chains that Kitai could use to defend himself well, if he attacked the miniature Asmoskon that was pressing an attack against him he’d find it would explode like the others right on top of him. To make matters worse the miniature after shooting at Kitai rushed right up to meet Kitai face to face like an excited child with extreme ADHD.

“Dang you keep coming back for more! You're an addict for abuse alright!”

[Kitai Yoru]

The Black Fog grew ever larger, like an omen of death upon this earth. Twenty feet from any side around Kitai, forty feet from end to end, the fog of war was an impressive sight to behold, if he said so. Less impressive, however, were the results of the beasts that he spawned from it. He would like to say that they fell one by one, but that wasn't true in the slightest. Each of the beasts was struck almost simultaneously, struck by... clones of the Quincy? He was firing copies of himself? That's hilarious! Kitai could only laugh at the sheer absurdity of the ability. That was something he'd have loved to have!

A fourth arrow was shot at the Saika, but like the others, it impacted against the wall of chains that the Bladed Chains formed in front of Kitai. Then the explosions started. It felt like the world was shaking apart, as pillars of energy consumed the beasts. The explosions kicked up sand and dust, and knocked Kitai flat on his ass because of all the trembling. Kitai cleared his throat one last time, before giving off a cheer. "WHOOHOO! HAHAHAHA! MORE EXPLOSIONS!" After an explosion, there was usually a stillness to the air, leaving a kind of pregnant pause to the action.

Kitai was the one to ruin that silence.

There was too much of a distance between him and his opponent. There was also way too much crap in the air to really see anything in front of him. This was more than enough of a reason to not fight Leviathan on a beachfront. So, Kitai decided to go scorched earth on this guy. The Quincy might be able to sense this coming, but there wasn't any way he'd be able to stop it, as reiatsu gathered in his chest. "EXPLOOOOOO-SION!" He yelled out, as a full powered Cutback Assault was unleashed onto the world, for the half dozenth time in Kitai's short unlife.

The wave pushed up, it pushed down, and it most certainly pushed out, as the shockwave the assault produced ran across the sandy beach. It kicked up sand, it kicked up rock, and it even shoved the dust particles out of the way. As the pillars of black reiatsu died out, they too were shoved aside, as a seemingly all consuming wave of reiatsu blew past them like a freight train. The wave would continue moving in every direction for eight hundred meters. If the Quincy didn't have a way to block this ability, he would have to move quite a long distance to avoid death by cutback.

As for Kitai, he started to fall into the hole of his own creation. The assault wasn't all powerful, and only pushed down around twenty meters. The Lunatic caught himself with the chains attached to his feet, as he began to leave the crater. It was quickly beginning to fill with ocean water, and he'd rather not get soaked right now. Kitai reached the edge rather quickly, with the additional chains adding to the defensive formation he had the others in. He was covered on nearly all side by the hellish metal, twisting and squirming like living snakes.

He observed the damage he'd caused, and obscured as it was, he couldn't help but let out a low whistle at the destruction. What was once a beach, now looked more like a quarry with how many rocks were uncovered. The trees that were next to Kitai were also blown down, at least thirty meters in, like some sort of unfortunate domino set. The funniest thing, which he hadn't thought about before activating the technique, was the ocean. It was like all the water was pushed down and away from him, like an indentation on the world. It didn't last long though, as it began to come back. From the looks of it, it would be a pretty big wave.

Oh such destruction! Such chaos! He... His grin faltered. This had been a really beautiful beach before. He might not have been one for sitting around or having fun in the sun, but did he really want to mindlessly destroy this place for a single fight? Granted, his Quincy cohort had started nuking the place to begin with, but was this the kind of person he had become? Was he the kind of person who wanted to destroy things, just for the sake of destroying them? He tried to shake himself from the somber mood he put himself in, but the thought persisted.

Maybe it would be for the best if he ended this fight quickly. He unleashed another fog beast unto the Earth. The abomination looked like if Scooby-Doo and Robin Hood had a baby. It was a massive grey dog, with green boots, mittens, and a green cloak with a big 'D' plastered on the strip of cloth that covered his underbelly. "Dynomutt! Away!" The wretched thing called out, looking as derpy as it did happy. It wasn't though. It was angry and pissed to be alive, and immediately began using its advanced senses to track down the Quincy. Be it through actual scent, or with its energy sensory, it would locate the archer.

{Cutback Assault}Technique Name: [Cutback: Assault] Mastered

Class: [1]

Technique Type (Kido, Hollow/Arrancar Technique, Human World Dweller Technique, Other): [Cutback]

Usable By (Technique is available to which races?): [All Races]

Technique Element: [None]

Technique Description and Effects (Explain appearance, powers, and effect):

Traditional cutback is triggered by a physical strike from a spiritually inferior source. Among those with immense spiritual pressure it is a useful defense. This technique converts that same cutback into an offense. The user gathers all of their spiritual energy at their core before releasing it outward with a burst. An invisible wave bursts outward with a speed and force of 600, pushing back everything in its path. It functions like a larger Martial Discipline: Ken to all those around. The user may choose to spend an additional reiatsu to increase the range of the wave. At its lowest range, the wave will travel 200 meters in every direction. If the user doubles the cost, this range will also double to 400 meters in every direction. But get this. If the cost is TRIPLED, the radius will also triple to a whopping 800 meters.

However, the real effect of the technique only kicks in when the wave makes contact with any individual. If the difference in spiritual pressure between the user and target is great enough, this technique will automatically inflict the same damage they would face had they triggered cutback. This property is what makes Cutback: Assault truly deadly.

How to use technique (How is it activated?): [Insert Below]

Charge reiatsu and release it.

Technique Drawbacks (Limitations, repercussions for use, etc) (Insert Below)

This technique costs 300 reiatsu to use, and it must be mastered before employed in battle. It may only be activated once every 3 posts, and while it’s on cooldown, the user loses access to natural cutback. However, that is hardly the most serious drawback. As this technique causes the sudden output of such a large amount of energy, it puts a heavy strain on the body, worsening all injuries the user suffered prior to activation. When used the first time, if the user has any deep lacerations or stab injuries, they will begin to bleed profusely, giving them 5 posts before they lose consciousness. When used the second time, even if the user only had thin cuts, these will widen and deepen as blood rapidly escapes them, giving the user 5 posts before they pass out from blood loss. After employed a third time, even if the user is completely unharmed, their nose and eyes will begin bleeding. In fact, their internal organs would be struggling to function as the strain of a third Cutback: Assault also caused them hemorrhage. The internal bleeding would cause the user to pass out in 5 posts after activating the technique.

[✠Asmoskon Masurao✠]

The miniature arrows that Asmoskon shot off soared through the air facing little difficulty against the massive toys then an Eagle going through a cloud. Rushing right in and touching each one in a little different way. One of which tagged the face on one of the cheeks similar to a little kid playing a game. Another rushed headlong slamming into the giant as if it were tackling it. The last one had rushed in like the other two, but instead of tackling or tagging the giant it had hugged it. Each one possessing a singular trait of Asmoskon’s emotions meant that despite his best efforts there would always be something he couldn’t control about them. Regardless though the explosions they caused were enough to wipe the giants out.

As for the one that had gone after Kitai directly, its body happened to be too big to maneuver around the chains that Kitai continued to employ in a defensive manner. However, the Sinner would find the arrow didn’t simply shatter like a normal one. The moment the chain clashed against the little copy of Asmoskon it would glow and explode like all the others covering an area vastly wide enough to encompass Kitai himself should he not have some other method of defense. Regardless of that fact though Asmoskon was certain that one ill placed explosion wouldn’t bring about the end of his target. Just like he assumed it wasn’t more than a couple seconds before Kitai unleashed an attack of his own.

What Kitai did though wasn’t a projectile or his chains, instead choosing to eliminate everything around him blindly. A technique that Asmoskon had seen a couple of times in the past, yet the range Kitai was managing to pull off was definitely vaster than anything previous. Getting a little distance between them wouldn’t be enough, a fact that Asmoskon realized almost right away and in response executed Hirenkyaku in order to accelerate himself backwards. Just stepping back though would be enough and for that reason the Quincy had to make a choice. In the moment that followed two massive pieces of red sprung forth from his back flapping against the wind to propel him upwards and away. Asmoskon had grown wings of blood in order to fly through the sky getting far enough from Kitai that the immense wave of reiatsu couldn’t touch him.

Somewhere between twenty to thirty seconds, a length of time quite impressive for a single technique. Asmoskon wasn’t certain whether Kitai would be able to cast the same thing again but knew based on the environment now that if he actually suffered from it the chances of him staying conscious or even surviving would be slim. The beautiful landscape was now no more, looking more like a meteorite had just slammed into the edge of the island causing a massive crater. Still, it was to be expected when facing down someone with this degree of strength whether they be of Hell or not. Standing on the air his wings outwards Asmoskon several hundred feet up in the sky now looks down at the crater knowing Kitai was most likely in the center. His bow in his left hand Asmoskon comes to the conclusion. “Best to end him now then.”

Concentrating his reiatsu into his right hand Asmoskon began to focus the crimson wings attached from his back now outstretched ready at any moment to flap forwards sending Asmoskon backwards to evade an oncoming attack. Asmoskon could feel heat rising in his right hand while pain flares up due to the effort he was placing on his draw hand. What he had planned wasn’t something that he could do freely nor without stress placed on his arm. Deactivating his abilities and allowing his reiatsu to relax the Quincy sighs to himself realizing just how out of shape he’d allowed himself to become since leaving Japan. What he had planned was still something he was almost certain Kitai wouldn’t be able to handle yet unleashing it at the moment was a huge risk.

Instead Asmoskon pulled the abundant reiatsu of the sky near him through his cross almost as if taking a large influx of air to fill his lungs. Afterwards he could see downwards and although everything was still clouded over with smoke from the large-scale attacks that had just ruined the environment of the island below, Asmoskon was ready to attack once again. Pulling back the bowstring of his pitch longbow Asmoskon aimed for a fraction of a moment and realized a single arrow at the sound of a large body moving. Kitai would likely be able to witness the dark arrow pierce into the skull of his demented dog beast. It would take a couple of minutes for all the smoke to clear, yet Asmoskon had a feeling that Kitai wasn’t going to stay hidden inside it and as such it was best, he absorbs a bit more reiatsu.

Technique Name: Kurimuzon Furaito (Crimson Flight)
Class: 2
Technique Type: Other
Usable By: Quincy
Technique Element: Blood

Technique Description and Effects: This technique is one that the Masurao Family created in order to keep a constant distance from foes and never lose the advantage of high ground. By channeling their reiatsu and blood throughout their body to the center of the back the user is able to create wings made from their blood infused with reiatsu. When the technique is being done the veins of the user glow bring red on their back just as one would see during the use of Blut. The wing span is ten feet in length and four feet width. The appearance of the wings is up to the user while creating them meaning they can be based off any type of animal the user can imagine.

Now other then granting the user the ability of flight after use these wings serve two other separate uses. The first of which is the wings can be used as a defense due to the fact that they are both physical and spiritual in nature they serve to protect the user from nearly any type of attack. The wings have durability equal to the Offensive stat of the user and even if damaged or broken can be repaired for an additional reiatsu cost of 300, along with further blood. The second purpose of these wings is simple and something that led to them being feared by those that had seen them in battle. The user is able to by flapping the wings send their blood outwards up to twenty feet away. The wings also leave blood on anything that makes contact with them which lead to many nicknaming the technique the "The Dying Angel" The wings stay stable for a total of 10 posts until the technique needs to either be reactivated or it ends.

How to use technique: Explained Above

Technique Drawbacks: This technique can only be used a total 2 times per thread any further usage will cause the user to slip into a coma. This technique costs a fair amount of blood to actually use and due to the blood that it requires once activated the Senses of the user drop by 25%. The Senses of the user regain by 5% every two posts until the full 25% is replenished. In order to repair the wings from damage along with the reiatsu cost the additional blood drops the Senses by an extra 5%. These deductions to Senses do stack making the technique very dangerous for many might find that soon they won't be able to find the target. Along with the deduction to Senses when this technique is done and blood is lost the user experiences sluggishness, exhaustion, and coldness. Excessive use is very tiring and normally is the failing of the technique. This technique costs 200 reiatsu each post its active.[/spoiler

[Kitai Yoru]

There were times where Kitai loathed his lack of ranged techniques, and this was most certainly one of those times. This man was content with sitting back and poking him to death from a distance, dodging all of his efforts of getting in close, his minions getting close, or outrunning his Cutback Assault. The distance it traveled was a massive one, and yet the Quincy still managed to outrun it. It was like trying to swat a fly, except this bug had a weapon that could punch through his gigai bodies. It made his blood boil ad being forced to hide behind his chains for protection.

One of the arrows that had been launched earlier struck the chains a little differently than it had before. The shrill whine of metal on metal was a little more harsh, a little more unpleasant, but ultimately it was still shredded back into spiritual particles under the raw power of his chains. He suspected that the arrow had been a more powerful one, but the difference in their power was still too large of a gap for it to overcome. Kitai figured that would be a good time to refresh his reiatsu. Asmoskon was good at running, he'd give him that. The Cutback Assault took thirty seconds to complete, and he wasn't going to waste that time.

In the time it took for his attack to complete, the Lunatic decided to pull his Faustian Bargain out from Hell, and consumed it. His reiatsu skyrocketed, nearly restoring him back to full. He groaned from the influx of power, but managed to grin and bear it. The hound he had summoned pointed up to the sky, finding the Quincy rather quickly. The dog was put down just as quickly, a flaming arrow to the skull returned it back to the mists that had gave life to it. Kitai just looked up. It seems that his opponent had transformed.

The man was now sporting glowing red wings, looking like a fallen angel, ready to exact vengeance upon the person who wronged him. Which, in this case, would be Kitai. He was rather high up in the sky now. Kitai would have loved to chase after him, but his Black Fog prevented him from flying with Airground, and Kitai didn't have any other means of chasing after him. That was... exactly the reason he was going to invent a ranged attack after this fight was over. Kitai twisted the chains around, lying on them as if it were a lounge chair, with one arm holding his chin up.

His chains still covered him, but he might as well get comfortable if this was going to turn into a poking contest. Speaking of that, Kitai rolled his hand, forming another orb of reiatsu, plopping it back into Hell. It was roughly a quarter of his reiatsu, another 5,000. He had almost use up all the reiatsu the first one had given the Black Fog, and it needed a refresher. With that done, five screaming eagles shot out from the mists, flying up towards the winged man.

Kitai started to move inland. The crater he had created was started to fill up with water ad a rather surprising rate, and he'd rather not drown from the deluge of ocean water pouring in. The armor of Chains moved almost like a crab, as it watched the flying man who had hunted their wielder. Kitai would much prefer this fight to happen up close, but if he had to outlast and force him to burn through his reiatsu, than so be it. The Lunatic sighed, and wished he had some popcorn or something. The eagles flew at a speed of 400, and were creating a sonic Shockwave around them with 800 Strength.

[✠Asmoskon Masurao✠]

The arrows that he’d just released from his bowstring struck true piercing through the skull of the demented dog killing it immediately as its body turned back into the black fog that surrounded Kitai. Asmoskon with all of the options that he had available wasn’t so certain that he could peer through the smoke or the fog. At the moment with the smoke of the explosion that Kitai had created, seeing through it all with his natural eyes was difficult although there were moments that enabled him to gaze through and spot some part of Kitai. He had to question whether or not to activate his Unparalleled Sight when the screaming eagles emerged from the fog flying upwards towards him.

This battle had gone on longer than most, proving that Kitai was worthy of his bounty while exceeding the power that he had possessed while human, but it couldn’t be allowed to go on much longer. Already Asmoskon had utilized a few of his personal abilities with only one of them seemingly having a major effect against Kitai. “Precision and basics it seems will be the deciding factor.” Asmoskon speaks to himself while pulling his bowstring back once again. Taking only a moment to fire off five arrows from his longbow each set to strike a corresponding eagle, however traveling roughly twenty feet downwards before splitting off, doubling in number and positioning themselves on each side of the eagles.

The arrows traveling at more than twice the speed of the eagles would reach them at roughly halfway up to his altitude giving him the time he needed for his real attack at Kitai who seemed to be moving on his throne of imprisonment. His longbow vanishing while his shortbow appears in his left hand once again Asmoskon aims downwards while focusing in on himself in order to activate two of his properties at once. His mind processes everything that needs to be done to make this next shot as a single pitch arrow with a crimson core is fired down at Kitai locking onto his signature with speed far above what was normal.

Kitai had already seen the speed that Asmoskon’s arrows can manage to surprise likely wasn’t going to be a factor although what might have happened if he moved in some way to evade the arrow would follow him. One arrow wouldn't be all though as two additional were fired one the same as the first while the third would traverse the distance between them at a vastly superior speed. The first two having locked onto Kitai would travel at a speed of 2000 downwards yet the third was filled with far more effort from Asmoskon.

Enhancing the speed of the arrow with his shortbow enabled his firing property to truly become frightening as the enhanced arrow of 1600 became a monster of 4000 moving faster than most spiritual foes even while they enhanced their own speed. Kitai would find though that if he were struck or if he countered or blocked any of the arrows fired down at him, he’d feel pain like only a handful of exchanges ago. That of course meant that despite the enhanced speed this arrow wouldn't take Kitai down, he'd already proven he could handle pain, Asmoskon was determined to find out how much pain in the end though.

Kurimuzon Furaito: 2/10

Power Property: {-200}
Firing Property: {-150}

SPOILER: Click to show

Asmoskon's Firing Property allows any arrow fired from his bow to lock on to the specific reiatsu signature that it is aimed toward. The arrows are able to curve on their own and move fluently throughout the air changing direction based on the movement of the target that they have locked onto. This effectively allows the arrows to maneuver through tight surrounding and change course to the point of even a 180 degree change in direction. When any of these arrows have locked onto an individual they will increase in speed by 150%. The lock on factor of this ability is one that grants arrows a pin-point accuracy even changing course or curving around a hostage to strike the true target. The property isn't without it's weakness however as an individual that has been locked onto can cast a reiatsu ability closer to the arrow then themselves to actually lure the arrow away.

Extending the reiatsu of the individual over an area will actually cause this property to become completely nullified as the arrows will travel through the area as normal. However, if they leave the area they will turn around once again back into the area. Finally if an individual possesses an ability to suppress their reiatsu completely than this property also is negated as the arrows lose track of the signature. If the signature reappears however the arrows will converge back on it's location. The normal suppression of one's reiatsu doesn't counter this property as the arrows are still able to pick up the faint traces of the reiatsu. When an arrow has locked onto an individual it gains the ability to soar throughout the air indefinitely as it tracks the signature of the reiatsu adjusting it's altitude to match the location of the individual. This property can be countered if an individual sends out a pulse of their reiatsu to overload the property. This requires they pay a cost equal to the cost of the arrow.

This property strives from Asmoskon's training as an archer. Spending years of training starting from the age of five from his grandfather, father and mother in the art of archery Asmoskon has spent more time throughout his life practicing archery than perhaps anything else. Practicing until his fingers bled and the feeling in his arms fades away until finally perfection has been obtained. These are the things that breath life into this property as all of Asmoskon's training is manifested into the perfection that he has sought after for so long.


Asmoskon's Primary power property enables every arrow fired from him to inflict harm upon any reiatsu entity struck by them. How this works is very simple if Asmoskon's arrows were to make contact with someone that prevents the physical damage from occurring then physical damage will appear on that entity in the same spot that the arrow would have struck. Damage inflicted by this ability however are only fifty percent in damage compared to the actual physical damage that would have been inflicted naturally. This means that if an arrow would have penetrated four inches into an entity then by this ability the wound will only be two inches and half as thick.

This property does though effect entities through extensions of their reiatsu in a different manner than physical contact listed above in the previous paragraph. If an arrow managed to make contact with a different focused form of reiatsu than the arrow will actually seap into the opposing reiatsu without causing a clash or inflicting any sort of opposition. What does happen from this is a instant spike of pain inflicted to the location of the entity that cast the opposing reiatsu structured. As an example if an opposing entity were to cast a projectile reiatsu technique from their hand then that hand would feel as if the arrow had just pierced through it until the end of Asmoskon's next post. This aspect of the property doesn't work on entities that possess a spiritual offensive stat 50% higher than Asmoskon.

[Kitai Yoru]

A sonic cry knocked the arrows that were made to slay the foul beasts off course. The beasts were monsters in terms of strength, matching the arrows in terms of raw power. They might not have been able to destroy the projectiles outright, but the shockwaves they produced with their shrill shrieks. They had launched them when they saw the Quincy pulling the string on his bow, anticipating the attack before it was launched. If it wasn't for how fast the arrows were, the shockwaves might have dissipated before they reached them.

The birds of prey ascended higher and higher, until they were at the level of the blood-red Quincy. They let out more shockwaves, having learned that those were their best method of attack. The cries rippled the air in front of them, moving faster than the birds were traveling, but the shockwaves only traveled fifty feet before them in a cone-shape. The Quincy might be able to survive a shockwave of their caliber, but Kitai doubted it would be very pleasant. It was a subject that he was very familiar with.

Speaking of pain, that was something he was experiencing in his lower gut right about now. The archer had fired upon all of his creations, from the dog he had summoned earlier, put down like old Yeller, to taking potshots at his birds. He had fired another arrow at Kitai himself, but the Saika hadn't seen it fire. With the distance between them, it should have been easy to see the moving projectile, but at best he saw it flash towards him for the briefest of instances, before he felt it crash against his chains.

The arrows were technically the superior ability in this instance, but Kitai's raw power was enough to make that irrelevant, as the spiritual matter that the attack was made of shattered to the winds. For some reason, however, he still felt the attack injure him, taking the form of a stabbing sensation in his stomach. For a second time, the man had managed to bypass his flesh body to attack his spiritual one. That was concerning for so many different reasons.

The chains were too weak, he decided. As he crossed into the forest, he replaced the chains, retracting them back to normal lengths. In their place, at the end of the chains grew hands, made of burning red energy, cocooning Kitai as the chains had done before. There was little difference between how the Grasp of the Dead functioned and how his Bladed Chains functioned, but these were of a higher quality the the chains. He doubted the arrows would work against these, before they burned away the annoying projectiles. As he was switching techniques, two more arrows struck the red glow of his power, and were incinerated for the trouble.
