[Jeff Franklin]

In the center of earths core a man would be working, alone and away from all other races. The core of this world was also known as Hell, the place where sinners would be sent after being judged. This man known as Alan Von Humphster was a scientist well known for his knowledge on parallel worlds and how to possibly traverse to and from them. Why was someone like him down in a place like this? It was the only spot he could think of to hid from the Soul King, working on the machine that could save his whole world.



Reaching up with his left hand Alan would rub a tattoo on his neck, a tattoo of a sword and a sun behind the blade. He was nearly done with his creation, the problem is he knew the moment he turned it on it would be nothing but a beacon showing the Soul King his location. That was a risk he was willing to make though, he even recorded himself yesterday explaining who he was, what was wrong with this world, and how to get back home. How to get home sounds strange until you realized the machine he was making had the one time ability to bring people from a parallel universe to this one.



With an exhausted sigh Alan put down his wrench, the machine was complete. Moving over to the two large glass containers, he would put his hand on the left one. This is where they will appear, there wasn't a doubt in his mind this contraption would fail him. Slowly he makes his way over to the control panel, placing his right hand on the large on/off switch. It was time to watch his invention help bring people over that can save his world. He doesn't know why, but at some point his Soul King became hungry poor power and that was something he couldn't stand for any longer. It was bad enough he sat quietly for years, running away from his position that encouraged that behavior.



With a loud clang Alan slammed the switch upward, electrical currents could be heard humming as the machine fully powered up. A moment later the two large glass containers would be filled with light. That's when he heard it, doors leading to this little room being slammed open. It seems the Soul King has let the ruler of Hell know about his location, and thus the denizens of Hell, or more specifically, the underlings of that ruler is breaking down his front doors.



The bright light would slowly vanish only to allow Alan to see the two people standing in them. "I'm sorry to summon you like this, but I don't have a lot of time. I left a recording in my desk over there on the right upper corner of this room. That recording will tell you every thing you need to know. You'll also feel a slight connection to one another, because you came from a different world you aren't fully resonating with this universe. So if for some reason you attack each other it will mirror onto the damage will mirror onto the attacker." With his words finished the final door would be slammed open, showing four Saika walking in that look identical. "Oh, here he is boys, let's give him a proper execution!"



With those words stated by one of the Saika the first two move at 600 speed, appearing next to him. Each one grabbing an arm while the other two move at 600 speed to be in front of him, each one of those two lift their right hand with daggers before plunging them into Alans chest. Alan would give one last breath before falling completely motionless, the two holding his body would then let his body drop. With that done they turn their attention to the two people in the large glass containers, "Seems we have some more work to do boys!"

[Sieglinde P. Krantz]

The day had been like any other. To say Helena was minding her own business would've been an understatement. After all, for the head of information transfer within the Vandenreich, Helena was actually minding her own business. Today had been a day off for the girl, in fact! One she was so readily going to spend what she loved the most; spending the day training, and preparing for the upcoming attack toward Uzaki Enterprises. After all, that needed her full attention.

At least, that's how she was planning on spending her day. Instead, just as it began, the girl found herself almost instantaneously whisked to somewhere, through a bright flashing of lights, jostling movement, and other distinctly non-Vandenreich methods of transportation. With both a sigh, and a bit of a headache, Helena found herself in some kind of... pod.

"I'm sorry to summon you like this, but I don't have a lot of time. I left a recording in my desk over there on the right upper corner of this room." Gently massaging her face in her hands in an effort to wake up, Helena responded with a soft sigh. "Is that so," she commented, rather groggily. "That recording will tell you every thing you need to know. You'll also feel a slight connection to one another, because you came from a different world you aren't fully resonating with this universe. So if for some reason you attack each other it will mirror onto the damage will mirror onto the attacker."

'Reflected back onto the attacker'? Does that mean she was to be partnered with someone here? She would've taken the opportunity to think out her thoughts a bit more, if it weren't for the four grunt-like individuals breaking down the door and taking the life of this talkative fellow in the room with her and the other person in the pod. "Seems we have some more work to do boys!"

"Ugh," Helena groaned, flexing her ambient Spiritual Pressure with enough force to crack the glass in front of her, "you there, seems we've got something... troublesome, to deal with. Are you perhaps ready to deal with these... 'fine' folk?" As she spoke, Helena made expert use of a variant of Willpower, causing a Ginto tube to create itself behind the group of Saika.

Flicking her wrist upward, and manifesting her 'shortbow', Helena allowed the weapon in question to form as a .44 Revolver; a popular choice amongst elephant hunters. After all, these individuals seemed to think they were pretty big game. She'd show them just how big she really thought they were. Aiming the gun to the leftmost Saika, and with a cocky "Bang," Helena pulled the trigger.

While the revolver itself still flashed, Helena still felt the kick, and the residual sound of a gunshot still rang out, neither bullet nor arrow actually fired from the gun. In fact, the round in question hadn't even hit the individual she was aiming for! Quite the opposite; while she was aiming for the leftmost Saika, the round she fired instead flew from the Ginto tube on the ground at a speed of 1,600, looking to blast through the back of the rightmost Saika's head. Assuming he had no way of detecting the round's quite unpredictable location, Helena's last comment would be a resounding "Headshot~" spoken in a very sing-song voice, as she drew in Reishi from the area around them.

{Willpower: Eigenwillig}
Technique Name: Eigenwillig

Class: 5

Technique Type: Quincy Technique

Technique Element: None

Technique Description and Effects: Rather than taking advantage of the longevity and making it immortality as Immortality Drink does, Quincy use the battle variant of Willpower. They use it to focus Reiatsu within a physical (in the human world) manifestation. By focusing their Reiatsu, they can create a small, silver capsule known as a Ginto Tube. While these are purchasable in shops, this technique allows the user to manifest them even in the field, reducing the risk of running out of Ginto tubes at a key moment. By spending 300 Reiatsu, the user condenses it into a Ginto tube that is immediately added to their inventory.

{Class 6 Form - Armory of the Eternal Hunt - 100 Reiatsu}Armory of the Eternal Hunt is a Form Property with a fairly wide amount of applicative options. It’s through this property that Priscilla is able to create a variety of different hunting-focused weapons from her arrows, tailored to her choosing. These weapons can range from anything to a pair of twin machetes, a set of throwing knives, to even a simple longbow. No matter what weapon is created, these weapons all share a few unique properties in terms of appearance; they keep the standard reiatsu-based appearance, colored pastel pink to match with her own reiatsu, and usually bear the symbol of the Vandenreich somewhere on the weapon themselves. Instead of using any Weapons Skills, skill with these weapons instead relies on Priscilla’s skill in the custom skill, Hunting. Weapons created have a Durability equal to Priscilla's OS at the time of creation.

Weapons created through this way function off of Priscilla’s OS, regardless of their status as melee or ranged. Up to two separate weapons can be manifested at a time for no extra costs, but creating more than that costs reiatsu. Thrown weapons, or projectiles fired from weapons are treated as Priscilla’s arrows, and cost the same to fire or throw. These arrows fly at standard speed, and otherwise function exactly like arrows. Changing the shape of a weapon occurs at 1,000 speed, and manifesting a new weapon entirely occurs at 500. Weapons can be dismissed at any point, for no reiatsu cost, and disappear instantaneously. When struck by Priscilla’s weapons, from projectiles from her weapons, or arrow explosions, foes are afflicted with one stack of Bleeding for 10 posts, with the duration refreshing upon gaining another stack.

{Class 5 Firing - Fearsome Trapper - 150 Reiatsu}Fearsome Trapper is a property that grants Priscilla a rather powerful amount of options in the midst of combat. Through this firing property, Priscilla can set up various traps across the battlefield, aiming to ensnare her opponents that enter the vicinity of these traps. To use this property, Priscilla targets a Ginto tube currently on the battlefield in any location, or the location of one of her weapons or arrows currently on the battlefield if Armory of the Eternal Hunt is active. From there, the chosen target activates and removes itself from the battlefield, dispersing the weapon or destroying the Ginto tube in the process and firing an arrow toward a target location. This arrow costs no reiatsu to fire given the set-up required, but cannot be split or detonated, and has a Class equal to the Ginto tube, or the arrow fired from Armory of the Eternal Hunt. When struck by this arrow, foes are afflicted with one stack of Bleeding for 10 posts, with the duration refreshing upon gaining another stack.

[Kitai Yoru]

"So, we're really doing this." It was more of a statement than a question. The Kitai and his clone had been planning this for the better part of a year now, ever since the Lunatic had kicked the hornet's nest that was Hell. He pissed off Leviathan something fierce, having stopped his escape ritual with his hired help. Col had been a great assistance in dealing with all the Hellion, as well as getting the sacrifices out of the cultist's hands. That had cost him a great deal, as it put him firmly on Hell's radar, but he would take that over letting the sea beast free.

Now it wanted him dead, and he it. So, he had been scouting out locations to give the monster what it wanted. He would free the abomination in a way that crippled its capabilities, made it something that could be killed instead of the immortal abomination that would kill him and whatever world he unleashed it upon. Initially, Kitai had been looking at various oceanside areas, figuring that the only place he could summon the wyrm was someplace with a vast amount of water to contain the beast. Through some research, however, it turned out he didn't need the ocean.

That would be where it was strongest, but it wasn't necessary. So, Kitai had chosen a place that had would have the least impact on the world at large should he lose; off of it. There wasn't a snowball's chance in.. Well, you know, that Kitai would summon this pain in the ass on Earth if he didn't need to. So, he decided to pick Hueco Mundo as the world he would summon it, as close to the Espada's base of operations as he could manage. And today was the day. Kitai was kitted out for war, dressed to the nines in armor and weapons. His outfit was made of Steel Silk, and Rocket Boots were worn comfortably on his feet.

His right hand was equipped with his SUPER, while his left hand had a strange bracelet around the wrist. The item was a transformed Boomstick, changed by the power of another very illegal item. Around his neck was the Garganta Disruptor, the large gemstone looking like an ancient necklace. On his right hip was a thermos, attached to his belt, while his right hip held an average sized, chocolate chip muffin. In a pocket over his heart is a Tarot Card, numbered zero. In a special pocket, his Interdimensional Doorknob, stored with his real body underneath his Gigai.

He felt he was ready to settle his war with the invincible fish once and for all. No more Hellions getting in his way, no more random fire ladies trying to enlist him into the service of this Sanctus thing. He was going to break free from his chains today, and take that stupid demon with them. "Finally. Four years of being enslaved to Hell..." There was a tear in his eye. The thought of freedom being so close. Or, what he assumed was his freedom. At the very least, he would be free of a thorn in his side, and possibly the Espada, if he played his cards right.

He was about to pull out the Doorknob... When Kitai heard a pop. Kitai had been released in anticipation for his climatic final battle, so he had been feeling the eyes of Hell focusing in on his location. It was a strange sensation that only a Saika could truly understand. So, when those eyes suddenly vanished, and he no longer felt those eyes trying to find him, he knew where he was. Had the fish learned of his plan ahead of time? How did his time out of Hell suddenly cut short? Were they always able to just pop him back into Hell on a whim?

Kitai was dazed for a moment, trying to figure out where he was. He was in a tube in Hell, apparently. A tube in the lab of a not-so-mad scientist. Kinda looked depressed actually, with a hint of hope in his eyes. And then the muscle burst through a door. Blue and white masks with too many tiny holes, with none of them lining up where the eyes would normally be able to see through. Oh, and biker jackets, Kitai couldn't forget those. The man had said something before the dude bros crashed in, but Kitai was too on edge.

Something something recording, something something second person, something something different universe- wait what? Before the thought of questioning him could cross his mind, the Saika Quartet performed open heart surgery on the man with the careful precision of a buckshot. Well, he would have to fix that later. For now, the four were positively giddy at a second and third chance to perfect their surgical skills on himself, and whomever it was that got dragged into this literal Hell hole with him.

Said person seemed to be quite the avid critic of their medical malpractice, as bullets were let loose from the pod besides his own. And now that he got a better look at the person... He could remember the woman who decided to play a game of 'Taunt the trauma victim with their trauma' with him. Naturally, he won that game, but boy was this an unfortunate turn of events. To be paired with this person, he had truly bad luck on his side. So, before he emerged, he decided to not be Kitai for a bit. He had met a fair amount of people over his life. Mostly through fights to the death, but not all of them.

So, using his Mark of Sin Envy, he decided to disguise himself for the moment. His skin twisted, his body morphed, and no longer was he Kitai. He held his pale glowing left hand to the glass door, an eye taking shape in the palm. The Eye of Yami manifested, and let loose a beam of nothing. It silently roared, deafening the area without sound. The pod door shattered, as the beam produced both nothing and something simultaneously. The beam moved to consume the two rightmost Saika. Kitai stepped out from the pod. His skin glowed a pale blue color, and his hair floated about as if it were underwater. Kitai had taken the form of his old apprentice, Impo.

Kitai was no longer the actor he once was, but he figured Pricilla wouldn't be able to tell who he was just based on his one interaction with her. She might be able to recognize that he was taking the form of a Failure though, and that might make this situation at least a little more funny. "Why the f$&k am I in Hell of all places? Maybe you sorry sacks of s#%t can help me find out!" He let out a chuckle that was unfamiliar to him. The Failure hadn't laughed too much when Kitai had been with him, so the laughter that came out his throat was foreign sound to him.

Name: Muffin Button

Description: This is a muffin of high quality, and is sold in chocolate, blueberry, or Banana. Oddly enough though the muffin seems to bounce some when moved around. This does not however affect the texture or flavor.

Class: 1

Item Type: Combat Tool

Item Power (IP): 1,000

Offense Type: Physical

Durability: 800

Bonuses: As one would expect from the name (and from the buyer of this item) the muffin is self-replicating. This occurs in a few different ways. The first and foremost is that the muffin will produce an additional muffin every post. This base line amount of muffin's created, increases every 3 posts to include an additional muffin. I.E. Post 1 - 1 additional muffin is created. Post 4 - 2 additional muffins are created. Post 7 - 3 additional muffins are created. The alternate method is if the muffin is attacked by something and survives. Regardless of how much IP damage may or may not have occurred (assuming it's not enough to destroy the muffin outright.) will cause the muffin to spawn an additional muffin equal to half the class of the attack, rounded down. Class 1 - 4 muffins. Class 3 - 3 muffins. Class 5 - 2 muffins. Class 7 - 1 muffin.

So, you may be wondering what the point of these muffins are if they can self-replicate. The goal is twofold. The first is to create barricades of muffins. Muffins that will (hopefully) not be destroyed by an attack. This is especially useful as the muffins do not allow attacks to pass through them unless they have higher IP than the item. So, shockwaves for example do not have the means of phasing through "Muffin armor" if it's 1000 OS or less. The second is to produce muffins that for a small reiatsu cost explode and cause all nearby muffins to explode.

The original muffin explodes at the IP of the item but can only be done 3 times in a thread. The copy muffins use 80% of the IP. The original muffin being exploded does not count against the thread count for NDE threads nor does is destroy the muffin in DP / DE. This is because unlike the copies, the original will reform in 2 posts after the explosion it sets off. This post count increases when the muffin reforms by 1 post. So, the second explosion has a 3-post cooldown. The 3rd and final explosion has a 4-post cooldown. These cooldown posts start the post following the muffins detonation. The explosive radius of these muffins is 10 feet each. And the more muffins that are within that 10-foot radius of the initial blast create subsequent blasts that increase the radius by 5 feet per additional muffin detonated.

Drawbacks:

Muffin's also have low durability effectively guaranteeing that if an attack passes through the IP necessary to damage, they could reasonably be destroyed entirely.

Copied muffins take the full IP damage of an attack so long as it passes the thresh hold to damage them.

Unironically the best way to defeat the muffins is by taking a bite out of them. If a muffin has a bite taken out of them or are just eaten whole by something, they act like normal muffins.

The muffins do not have a cap. And should the original muffin be destroyed; the remainder will become standard muffins.

The user can be injured by the muffin's exploding if they are within the explosive radius. Also, to explode a muffin of any kind is 50 reiatsu per muffin. When used to explode other muffins the additional reiatsu cost is deducted from the user for every muffin detonated.

The original muffin uses its full IP for power of the explosion. Meanwhile the copy muffins use 80% of the IP for damage. In addition the main muffin can only explode up to 3 times a thread. The cooldown starts at 2 posts and goes up to 4 posts depending on how many times the main muffin has exploded.

[Jeff Franklin]

Well, the Loones were in quite the pickle now. Not long after turning their attention to the two people in the tanks does stuff begin going horribly wrong for them. The femlae of the two speaks up to their partner if a little groggily, "you there, seems we've got something... troublesome, to deal with. Are you perhaps ready to deal with these... 'fine' folk?" To which the Loones give a hearty laugh. One of them even speak up, the one on the far left to be precise, "You hear the lady boys? They're gonna "deal" with us, Hahaha. Maybe we should "deal" with her first then?"



It was all fun and games until Priscilla lifted her hand up showing a gun. The moment she held up her gun that formed out of nowhere and jokingly said bang while pulling the trigger, the man who made the comments suddenly has a hole through his head. Somehow, and they don't know how, the "arrow" traveled from behind them striking the rightmost Saika clean through the skull. The body falls over just in time for Priscilla to say "Headshot" as Kitai begins to move.



Taking the form of Impo the Failure before Priscilla could notice, Kitai places his hand on the glass in front of him using Eye of Yami to easily blast through the tank. The "beam" didn't stop there, continuing on until the other Saika on the right got their entire upper body vaporized. It seems the time for messing around was over, clearly upset at the turn of events the remaining Saika angrily stare at the two.



"You're gonna regret that", came from not one but both of the Saika's lips simultaneously. That's the moment they activate their Dark Skill 1, causing the skin of their arms and hands to convert into bandages. While their skin transforms, some kind of thick black smoke explodes out of the two covering anything within 30 feet of them both. For those with only 90 senses or lower it seems only 5 feet is visible through the smoke. To make things even more interesting, those who have high ES can't seem to see through the smoke from the outside in. Apparently this smoke carries the full unfiltered energy of the user. On the other hand if one were to enter the smoke ES can be used, but doing so reduces the effectiveness of ES by half while also halving the Instinct of the one trying to see using ES. Apparently it requires to much focus to process everything going on around them.



With their release out of the way, both Kitai and Priscilla would witness the cloud of smoke easily fill the entirety of the room. With their cover up, one of the Saika make their move sending a sudden surge into their special seal. If someone could see them them then they would witness the Saika's hair and fingernails turn dark grey, on the other hand the smoke would also now give off the aura of a Hollow. Not only does one use Release the Beast, but simultaneously they both draw on the Hollow reiatsu brewing within their souls. The masks they were wearing have now merged with their faces, a mouth now opening up where one would believe the mouth to be.



Both Saika would use Bringer Dark causing an explosion to happen where they were, one would land 10 feet to the left of Priscilla while the other would land 10 feet to the right of Kitai. Both Saika would have moved at 7800+ Speed. The one near Kitai (the one who Released the Beast) would suddenly use a power unknown to the two participants, even if they could see it. That one creates a basketball sized fireball that gets blasted at Kitai with a speed of 800 and an OS of 400. The other Saika near Priscilla would begin forming a ball of red energy in their mouth before firing of a Cero at Priscilla with an OS of 400.

[Sieglinde P. Krantz]

"Why the f$&k am I in Hell of all places? Maybe you sorry sacks of s#%t can help me find out!" That... wasn't a voice she recognized. Given the man's words from earlier, she'd been pulled into this world with someone of her own; that meant that this individual was from her own as well. Though, the question remained; just who were they? She'd probably learn the answer to that soon, but for now she was left wondering.

With a soft humming as the hand with her gun dropped to her side for a moment, Helena crossed her arms. "Can't say for certain, my rather interesting friend," she spoke, addressed to 'Impo', "but it seems as though-" "You're gonna regret that" Helena was cut off. Helena was cut off. Oh, she was going to make these fuckers pay. Taking a deep breath as the smoke closed in, and making no effort to hide her frustrations, the girl kept her arms crossed tightly to her body.

She'd already known exactly what she was going to do to these two Saika. Thankfully, the woman's plans had become notably easier than anything she could've done otherwise, what with one of the Saika quickly closing their own distance on her. As a bright red rumbling made itself present from through the fog that had set in quite quickly, Helena simply allowed her own blood to put in work for her; that was to say, she was relying on His Majesty's gift. As her veins lit up blue, tracing an almost rough pattern along her skin, the girl became ultra-resilient to the incoming attack.

As the heated laser washed over her body, leaving the girl practically unaffected, Helena took the time to set up an attack of her own. Utilizing her own abilities to create and allow five separate daggers to be planted into the ground beneath the Saika's feet, the girl - at the very least - gave a moment for the individual to finish his attack. She had the patience to let him do what he'd like. As the laser eventually calmed, but not waiting for it to finish completely as to keep him in the same spot, Helena put her plans into action.

Willing each of her daggers to immediately come to life, all five of the blades immediately removed themselves from the ground and flew directly toward the Saika; given the range, and the speed at which the arrows travelled, she was fairly confident in her ability to strike true. Each piercing through a different location around the Saika, these arrows weren't exactly "standard"; connecting to the ground, through the Saika, and into the ceiling where each of the daggers planted themselves, chains of solidified shadow made themselves apparent from the grips of each of the daggers.

Assuming he was hit, the Saika would be immediately strung up by each of the chains running through a separate part of his body; each of the blows aimed to be not-quite-immediately lethal, aiming to leave this Saika wailing in excruciating pain for a few moments. Given the rather... restrictive positioning he'd be put into, pinned to both the floor and ceiling with damn durable chains running through his body in five different places, pulled almost to the point of ripping limbs asunder, she was fairly confident in her ability to leave him there.

Still keeping her arms crossed, Blut active, and attention on the pinned-up Saika, she decided to speak once more. "Now, as I was saying before I was rudely interrupted, it seems as though we're both in a rather concerning predicament. Would you perhaps be willing to ally for a time? If nothing else, to get the both of us from this... hell?" Smiling from her own joke, Helena simply awaited an answer from Kitai as she drew in residual Reishi from the world around them, slowly breaking down the pod she still stood in.

{Blut}
Technique Name: Blut

Class: 3

Technique Type: Vandenreich Technique

Usable By: Vandenreich only

Technique Element: None

Technique Description and Effects: Blut, translated as “blood,” is a powerful technique that is passed down through all pure-blooded Quincies of the Vandenreich Empire. This technique is a gift from the Vandenreich Emperor, and only exists as long as he, or someone of similar power who as assumed his role, is alive. Channeling that leader's power through their very veins, Vandenreich Quincy are able to draw upon it and make use of it either defensively or offensively in combat. This technique is not active by default, however, and a cost must be paid to trigger it.

The first half of this technique is Blut Vein, the defensive half of the ability. Acting similar to an Arrancar's Hierro, Blut Vein allows the user to protect themselves on the skin level, preventing any physical damage to the body as long as the user possesses a superior offensive stat. Unlike Hierro, though, this armor will not degrade over time. However, attacks with impact behind them can still send the user flying, though the bodily damage will be negated. Blut Vein costs 300 Reiatsu per post to keep active.

The other half of the technique is Blut Arterie, which focuses on offensive ability. While this ability is active, the Emperor's power flows through the user's body and soul, doubling either physical or spiritual stats. This takes up one of the user's long-term stat boost slots, and costs 500 Reiatsu per post to keep active. Note that only one of these two techniques can be active at a time; if one is activated, the other is deactivated.

How to use technique: Spend Reiatsu to draw out the latent power in the user's blood.

Technique Drawbacks: The first major drawback to Blut Vein is that it can be bypassed in one of three ways. First, if the opponent's offensive stat is higher by even a single point, then Blut Vein is ignored. Second, if the opponent is of a superior Class, then Blut Vein is bypassed. Finally, “final forms” of Release, such as Bankai, can ignore Blut Vein.

Blut Arterie has its own drawbacks as well. When active, Blut Vein is removed, removing the user's defenses. Aside from taking up a stat boost slot, the user is constantly funneling excess energy through their body, which is a tiring effect over time. Finally, while active, the user draws in half as much Reiatsu per post as normal, as they are focused on output more than they are on drawing it in.

{Lanze der Ketten - Reserved}Technique Name: Lanze der Ketten (Lance of Chains)

Class: 5, 3, 1 (Class 3 TTP Cost. Learning this technique teaches all three Classes.)

Technique Type: Quincy Technique.

Usable By: Vandenreich Quincy.

Technique Element: Shadow.

Technique Description and Effects: Making use of the Vandenreich ability to manipulate shadows, Lanze der Ketten is a technique that aims to solidify the shadow of a Quincy’s arrows, creating powerful binding traps from an arrow’s location, or by temporarily allowing the Quincy to utilize these chains for various purposes.

By doubling the cost of a Class 5, 3, or 1 arrow, the user can manifest a chain, formed at 800 speed, from the fletching of a reiatsu arrow fired from their Quincy bow. These chains are treated as arrows, and have a durability based on the Class used; a Class 5 chain has 50% of the user’s RS, a Class 3 chain has 100% of the user’s RS, and a Class 1 chain has 150% of the user’s RS. Depending on the stage of Mastery of Lanze der Ketten, these chains have the option to connect to a few different points.

Learned: Chains will point directly toward the nearest surface when the arrow strikes a target, binding the target struck to that surface. At Learned, an arrow infused with Lanze der Ketten must strike a living target in order to take effect.

Proficient: Chains can now connect from surface to surface, retracting from both points until pulled tightly upon binding. At Proficient, an arrow infused with Lanze der Ketten no longer needs to strike a living target, and a chain can be manifested up to three posts after the arrow impacts, instead of being required right away.

Mastered: Chains can now connect from a surface to the user’s hand, retracting if and when the user wills it. At Mastered, a chain can be manifested at any point after an infused arrow impacts. When pulling on a chain that connects to their hand, they pull with a physical force equal to the chain’s durability, but the chain will break immediately thereafter.

How to use technique: Channel extra reiatsu through an arrow in order to create a chain when they see fit.

Technique Drawbacks: Despite being able to learn this technique as early as Class 6, the cost is rather expensive, and the higher-classed versions can only be used when normally able to obtain those techniques. While slightly cheaper, the lower the Class of the chain, the less durability it has. Only a total of ten chains can exist at a time; Class 5 chains count as half a chain, and Class 1 chains count as two. Manifesting a Class 1 chain takes up a Short-Term Stat Boost slot for the user, under all circumstances.

[Kitai Yoru]

Kitai had a feeling that power might have corrupted his perspective at some point. The Lunatic was bound to an entity that he felt had an insurmountable amount of power, something that could not be beaten by conventional means. So he tried to accumulate power, be it through abilities, items, or connections. Kitai knew he was strong, but to what degree, he wasn't entirely certain. He always felt that those who didn't match his power were just weaker than normal. He had never gotten the chance to go all out before, never prepared for a battle like this.

When the Saika hit him with the fireball, he didn't even need to dodge. The flames passed over him harmlessly, as the Energy Shell protected him effortlessly. The fire licked at the barrier, coating him in the inferno for a few moments. The Crafter raised his hand, eye leering menacingly. The dilating pupil would be the last thing the Hellion would see, before the beam of non-existence consumed it, obliterating the upper half of his body. The hellfire snuffed itself out as it ran out of material to sustain itself on. Kitai looked at the Hellion with almost a pitying look.

The Lunatic sighed. That had been a great field test for his items, but he felt it was almost disappointing that he didn't at least get blasted backwards or something. Maybe cut off his arm... He hated how much like Jeff he sounded like, but Kitai was a man who lived for combat. He lived for that feeling of almost dying against someone of equal power. It was no fun to just dominate against someone. While the Quincy was busy finishing off the last of the Saika, he popped the second stage of his Darkskill. If she had been looking, she might have seen wing-shaped shadows appear on his own for a moment, before it returned to normal.

Pricilla, someone who he had fought before, was a scary lady now. Apparently she had switched from using paper, and had started playing with knives. Maybe next time he met her, she'd be using rocks to fight instead. He chuckled at his joke, as she strung the Hellion up by his chains. That alone nearly had him laughing, as such a thing was a massive insult to Hellions. To bind them to something with their unbreakable chains, to remind them that they're nothing more than a playing for someone else... The fake Failure laughed at the misfortune of the other.

"Hahahaha! Yes, yes I think sticking together would be good for us. And yes, this is indeed Hell." Kitai walked over to the corpse of the man who brought them here, and gave his body a good kick. His foot transferred a portion of his soul, and reiatsu into it, starting the resurrection process. "There. That should bring him back in a few minutes. At least I learned one thing from that lunatic." He said absentmindedly. Or, that was what he was trying to sound like anyway. Pretending to be other people was pretty fun, he would admit.

Then he walked over to the captured enemy. "Now onto you, big man." Kitai raised his clawed hand, and pressed it into the man's stomach. His thumb sank into flesh. "Now, who are you working for? You morons all dress the same, and had that little group talk for a second. I'm guessing you're one of Envy's ilk. She loves that mind controlling crap." He wiggled his thumb around, slowly dragging it across his belly. "How about you tell me why you killed the nerd back there, and I'll kill you in a way that will let you revive. That, or I'll play hopscotch with your intestines' till you tell me what I want."

[Jeff Franklin]

Nothing was going well for these Saika henchmen, two already dead and two about to meet their own expiration date. Thinking they were in the clear after activating their smoke screen, the two off them proceeded into phase two of their plan. One going as far to even activate I Feel So Hollow, while the other preferred to use the talents they had access to. Simply put this part of the plan would spell the end for both of them.



Saika #1, the one currently attacking Kitai with the Talent Blaze Lvl 2, is about to have his upper body deleted. It seems there was a major flaw in his plan to attack the Lunatic, and that was items. Without knowing before hand that these two interlopers may have items, that alone made dealing with them difficult. The fact one of them was Kitai, a man known in his universe as a crafter made the matter that much worse. Sure enough the fireball didn't even damage the target, standing in place dazed from this unexpected turn of events Kitai had plenty time to lift his hand up and aim where the ball of fire came from. Following shortly after would be the smoke getting deleted by something before that something finally reached and devoured the entire upper half of that Saika's body.



Saika #2 was not having a better time, in fact one would say his predicament was much worse. Using the Cero he could now use he aimed it at an opponent that also had a way to protect against this amount of damage. In fact this target was probably leagues more calculative and tactical, for before the Cero ended she was already shooting the target with special kinds of arrows. These arrows took the forms of simple hunting daggers, which were easily placed at the Saika's feet. Using the Cero's direction she easily found where her opponent was, thus allowing her to place the daggers where she did. Finally the Cero would end, but the moment the red laser vanished the daggers flew from the ground upward piercing and stringing the Saika up dangling from the ceiling while still being restrained to the ground.



"Now, as I was saying before I was rudely interrupted, it seems as though we're both in a rather concerning predicament. Would you perhaps be willing to ally for a time? If nothing else, to get the both of us from this... hell?" Priscilla would ask this to Kitai (Who is still in the form of Impo), and very quickly get an answer, "[smear:0066CC]Hahahaha! Yes, yes I think sticking together would be[/smear:C0C0C0] [smear:C0C0C0]good for us. And yes, this is indeed Hell.[/smear:0066CC]" Following the voice of his new partner they both arrived just in front of the Saika. "[smear:0066CC]Now, who are you working for? You morons all dress the same, and had that little group talk for a second. I'm guessing you're one of Envy's ilk. She loves that mind controlling crap.[/smear:C0C0C0] [smear:C0C0C0]How about you tell me why you killed the nerd back there, and I'll kill you in a way that will let you revive. That, or I'll play hopscotch with your intestines' till you tell me what I want.[/smear:0066CC]"



The Saika would simply smile at Kitai, "To bad it don't matter if I dies here." Letting out a psychotic giggle he opens his mouth showing an orangish and yellow glow coming from within it. Kitai would then experience a surprise being the only one directly in front of the Saika, as soon as the glow appeared in his mouth he closed it. With nowhere for the force to go his head would pop, splattering certain matter all over Kitai. Right on que, at that exact moment a beeping noise could be heard in the top right corner of the room. It seems one of the computers was creating the noise, the screen itself was also slow blinking creating a white light.

[Jeff Franklin]

Unfortunately for the blood covered Kitai, he won't get a chance to clean himself off. For all of a sudden he would shimmer and blink rapidly, it seems this world wasn't quite ready to deal with this lunatic. Within moments of this starting Kitai was gone and standing in his place was none other than the current Primera himself. Sadly Marik would find himself standing in a pool of Saika blood, blood that clearly came from the mutilated corpse before him.

Just as Marik would start getting his barring the Quincy would also find herself fading from this world and back to her own. Leaving in her place a strange silver amulet radiating otherworldly power! It would be clear to Marik this wasn't his world, in fact he would even be able to feel his body reverberate with this realities own wavelength. 

No matter if he decide to immediately search around for why in the world they were here, a red blinking light would come from a computer screen in the upper right corner of this room opposite the two giant shattered glass pods. The flashing red light would direct them to a specific button that would start playing the video recording if pushed.

It opens doors to make life easier

1.) The sun beat down upon the earth with a blinding wrath as a heat wave unlike any this realm had seen before swept through kara kura town, the sound of traffic and cicadas hung heavy in the air as the evening sun slowly set on the horizon. The sound of light snores filled the Kitai shop, as it's owner snored loudly away at the shop counter feet up chair balanced on it's back legs and his head resting against a rocket launcher he had mounted on the wall.

2.) Marik would smile at the sight of kitai napping he had come a long way from telling marik not to steal anything , to simply being able to sleep whenever he came over for repairs. Similar to what the primera espada was doing now , somehow crystal had blown the fuse box to her lemonade stands sign.

3.) 'she's a veritable tech wizard!' he would think to himself as he wrestled with the spaghetti clumps of wires within the box , evidence she had tried to fix it herself which confused him even further till he followed the worse to several new hole in the back of the sign. '..she didn't' he would think with dread as his eyes trailed the cord.

4.) she had somehow hooked up several other contraptions to the signs box , which caused several shorts as they where all pulling from the same source. "Crystal you gotta stop this" he would mummble to no one as she was in the other room grabbing him a lemonade. reaching into his tool bag he would grab a few converters to ease up the load in the fuse box.

5.) Once he was done installing them he would zip tie the groups of cords together to get some form of organization and then call for crystal , "All done in-" was the only thing he would get to say as the sign clicked on and he was enveloped in a flash of cyan blue light. the only thing left was two smoking footprint where he once stood and an open breaker and fuse box.

6.) When marik next opened his eyes, he was in a void of cyan light , his body felt numb for the briefest moments next thing he knew he was vibrating like tuning fork in a hippies van. He would remain unmoving as his body began to adjust to the vibrational freqincy of the place he was in.

7.) His eyes would scan the room as their where clear signs a battle had taken place in this space , but what screamed to his ears was the whirring motor of the computer. Turning his head he would lock eyes upon the pale light of the computer screen. "well then let-" he would pause mid sentence as he felt tension aginst his foot.

8.) looking down he would sigh as brought his right foot up a wet sticky noise echoing through the room as he did so , 'either cami was here or someone was murdered' he would think to himself as he walked out the pool of blood and toward the computer. upon reaching it he would look at the screen then keyboard.

9.) "well guess the dead don't have privacy' he would mummble as he tapped the spacebar wanting to see if he could prompt some sort of response from the machine. his eyes wandering over to the spot where another hulking figure was forming he'd have to make this quick not sure weather he could call the figure friend or foe.

As Marik walks over to push the spacebar on the keyboard connected to the screen, it begins to play a message. The same man as earlier appears on the screen, though Marik would only recognize him as the corpse on the ground closer to the broken glass pods. After a moment of messing with the camera so it focuses better the man finally begins to speak in a tone only a dead man walking would use. Given the fact he is now a corpse on the ground only verifies that the man knew he would be killed at some point in the near future.



"Hello to you who have been summoned from another dimension. I'm sorry it came to this but you are our last hope at freedom from the tyrant who rules over us. You see, the dimension we are in right now is ruled by the Soul King, maybe that's not different from where you are from, but if it is he has taken the position of Captain Commander in the Soul Society of which I used to belong. Using his powers he has marked everyone in the entire world, due to this it is impossible for us to directly harm him. In fact, even if we try to come up with plans to indirectly do so we are stopped from those who adore him and his might."



"That brings us to where you are and why I brought you here. Using my machine that will probably not work after it's been used, I have summoned you here after setting it to find those with power. Currently you are standing in the place known as Hell, which in this dimension resides at the center of the earth. No prehistoric creatures and plant life here unless you count Akki who've been around the block awhile. I set up the machine here as it was the farthest spot away from where the Soul King resides, meaning that word of this threat would take him longer to respond to. This doesn't include those fanatics enthralled with him down here though, such as the ruler of Hell known as Lucifer and the two under him, Grash the Hason and Jeff the Saika. They have undoubtedly picked up on my machines energy after I activated it, meaning someone will be there soon after to stop it. For all our sakes I hope you survived and are watching this."



"Unfortunately you only have a limited amount of time to survive in our dimension, and the only way for you to return is by beating the Soul King and using the device he's been working on. The best way I can put it is every dimension has it's own frequency, as yours is different from this one... It will slowly suck away your life force. Meaning under normal circumstances you'd have maybe three or four days to survive, However, I have gotten my hands on something that will extend your time by months. If you look next to this screen you will see two vials, pick them up and place them into the machine they're next to. Once you do that place your arm into the tube up to your shoulder, it's your choice on which arm. Once that's done hit the big red button on the tube and the process will begin to inject the vials liquid into you. The process should be quick so don't worry about it."



"In order to challenge the Soul King you first must acquire key fragments from those who rule the largest factions in the world. The first piece would be from Lucifer himself, as you must go through him to leave Hell in the first place. The teleporter in Hell will take you to the Silburn located on the continent of Antartica, the Emperor owns another of the Key Fragments. From there you can use his personal teleporter to arrive in Las Noches which is located in the Sahara Desert. The Queen of Las Noches holds a key fragment herself and once defeated you can use her teleporter to travel to Xcution. At Xcution, find the CEO who holds a Key Piece himself. Excution is located in New York City, However, only the Excution has a teleporter that leads to the Soul Society which is located on top of the clouds. Once you arrive in the Soul Society you must fight the gate keeper, once defeated combine your key fragments and unlock the gate. The way the Seireitei is set up here is only Squad one belongs within the gate. Find the Soul King in his throne room and defeat him, once you do everyone will be set free from his control and you can use the device he has on him to return to your dimension."



"The reason why I know about this device is for being the main scientist who developed it. Thus why I was able to bring you here with a new machine, I just hope you can put an end to his reign. I'm sorry it's come to this, if we had any other way of dealing with the situation I would have done so. As I couldn't I had to use the last card up my sleeve to bring you here. Even though I'm probably dead, I hope you can succeed and save everyone else and yourselves. Good luck, oh, by the way, the serum in your system now has modified your molecular makeup. This will revert when you return home, but until then you can collect essence from those you beat to enhance yourselves further at special machines located throughout the world. I wish you luck." The screen would then shut off and the audio will go silent.

{What the machine does}When Marik places his arm in the tube and hits the button, two needles will pierce into his arm and inject both serums into him. A major burning sensation will be felt through his entire body. From their his consciousness would fade in and out, maybe even causing Marik to fall on the ground. After a few minutes the burning would subside and his mind would become clear once again. He now has the Unique Talent: Conscript, and the Unique Trait: Battle Fanatic. It's up to you to track your energy

1.) Marik sat in the chair listening intently to the man on the screen, though he looked completely disinterested marik dutifully paid attention. His eyes scanning the screen examining the mans face in the screen, such fear and worry and yet what danced in the mans eyes was a level of begrudging acceptance marik could never force upon himself.

2.) This man knew that his time had come , and had gracefully accepted what had come his way, in mariks eyes this lone man stood in his memory as a man worthy of his respect. after all lofty goals, and unreachable heights are what marik constantly strived for and this man in some twist of fate was a kindred spirit in his own way.

3.) Although marik's thoughts on the man would soon change as he learned the dimensional shift was seeking to remove him , and the method being siphoning his life force off till his ceased being a disturbance in this reality. 'your luck your already dead you jackass' he would think to himself with a sigh as he cast a glance back at the man corpse.

4.) Once the video screen went black marik would stay motionless for a few seconds as he looked to the left of the screen, he wasn't sure if these vials would really extend his life sadly what did he have left to lose he was already in hell. Taking the device and setting it up as instructed he would inject his right arm , and then abruptly fall over as his body was racked with pain.

5.) It felt like there was a fire in his veins, marik clenched his fist as fell out on the floor slamming it into the stone floor, his strength high enough to put a small crater the size of his fist on the floor. He began to grit his teeth as he stifled a scream 'what the hell was in that shit!?' he would think to himself as the pain subsided.

6.) He would stumble to his feet beads of sweat on his forehead, "ok...ok take a breath" he mummble to himself as he stood up , his eyes locking on the amulet and the door. He would walk over scooping the thing up and putting it around his neck and sliding it beneath his uniform before he headed toward the door.

7.) The first thing he needed was this essence, and that meant he needed to kill some fuckers which shouldn't be to hard considering the current location he found himself in. "lets gets this show on the road" he would mummble to himself as his fingers wrapped around the door knob and pushed it open , braced for anything that would come his way.

As Marik opened the door he would see a long 20 foot wide hallway. This hallway seemed to travel on for about 200 feet before opening up somewhere. In the hallway, However, were two more of the Saika that were dealt with earlier, of course they'd be completely new to the Arrancar staring at them. One of them would spot Marik after hearing the door open, tossing down his cigiratte he'd turn to face the Espada.



"It seems we have a visitor bud, don' know where e' came from, but if he's walking out, then the others are probably deadso." The Saika on the left (the one who turned to face Marik) would say that to his identical looking buddy on the right of the hall. "I say we give em' a proper hellion welcome!" Shouting this the left Saika would activate Dark Skill 1 triggering the others instincts making him also release. At that moment that area of the hall would fill completely with smoke, making it difficult for even Marik to see too far into it. With his current senses the Espada would only be able to see 15 feet through the smoke.

{Dark Skill Overall and 1} Dark Skill Appearance- The hands and arms of every one of these Saika seem to have bandages for actual skin now.



Dark Skill Overall- Smoke begins pouring out of every pour the Saika’s have, making it increasingly difficult for enemies to see. Each Loon Saika that has their Dark Skill active can see through this smoke. This smoke covers a 30 foot radius from the Saika that makes it extremely hard for those without super senses to see. For every 50 Senses an enemy has they can see 5 feet into/through the smoke.



Dark Skill 1- The smoke carries the full reiatsu/energy signature of the Saika, thus overloading anyone using ES within the smoke. While inside the smoke an enemy can use ES to find them, however, doing so comes at a cost. Those enemies who try using ES inside the smoke have their ES and Instinct cut in half. Being so hard to focus through they cannot use their full ES capabilities, they also must put much more focus and attention into using ES to “see through” the smoke.

1.) A powerful headache overcame the Primera Espada as his hand clasped around the brass doorknob, the entire universe seemed to shift in every direction and then refocused as the door opened. He was expecting to be blasted with a wave of broiling heat but was met with a dark hall instead. As dim as it was he was already struggling to see but two things allowed him to operate his es and his senses, the scent of cigarette smoke clouding the air allowed him to trace a source.

2.) Having three hundred es he was able to sense them even if they were stealthed and given their close proximity and unmoving nature, them wanting to flick that foul-smelling excuse of a cigarette on the ground only further pinged Marik to their locations. In a blur moving at his max speed, he would unsheath his katana and swing twice, letting forth two blast's of compressed wind. Each threatening to slash the two men in half. He would be surprised if they managed to mount a response in time and the there was that damn humming was he the only person who heard it was crystal nearby??

With Marik's surprise attack only one of the Saika's would even get a chance to react. Thankfully Saika number 2 (Not the one who had a Cigarette) spotted the attack coming in time to use Bringer Dark at 7200 speed, appearing 20 feet in front of Marik after leaving a black blazing explosion where he used to be. It would be at this point that the Saika would release his Dark skill 1, preparing to evade even more attacks if need be. To ensure he had the speed he would draw on the power of the beast currently sealed within him, causing his nails and hair tto become dark black. Of course Marik would have a hard time seeing with the smoke spreading out 30 feet around the Saika.



The other Saika was not so fortunate in this surprise attack. Not noticing the Espada fast enough meant that he also didn't spot the attack. Unfortunately for him that means his head was cleanly sliced off from his body, hitting the ground before it and the body begin to melt into lava which promptly gets absorbed into the ground. If Marik was paying close attention he would have noticed the attack seemed to hit resistance the moment it made contact with that Saika's flesh.



With Saika number one gone and only Saika number two remaining, Marik should have an easier time taking care of him. Of course it's only easier in the sense that dealing with two of the same power would have been a pain, but it'll only become worse when Dark Skill 2 is activated. Looking at Marik the Saika silently glares at him, his comrade's are most likely gone meaning he's the sole survivor. The mission is in his hands now, so he must do everything in his power to bring victory for his master.

{Release the Beast (Hollow)}Technique Name: Release the Beast



Class: 7-1 [Class 4 TTP cost]



Technique Type: Beast Seal



Usable By (Technique is available to which races?): Any [Except Failures]



Technique Element: None



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



This technique allows the user to harness a fraction of the beasts power that was sealed within them for 3 posts at learned, 5 at proficient, and 7 at mastered. Depending on the race of the Beast the power can come in different forms as seen below.



Hollow: The users hair and finger nails become dark grey and they radiate an aura that feels like a Hollow. The power gained from this Beast is an increase in Step Technique ability, allowing the user to Step tech at an additional 1x speed at learned, an additional step technique per post at proficient, and an additional 2 times per post at mastered.



Beast Clansmen: The users veins pop out more on the arm while become a dark brown color, they release an aura of the Beast Clansmen. The power gained from this Beast is the ability to bypass cutback with the users hardened muscles at learned. At proficient the user may block attacks with their flex defense equal to their strength, and at mastered they may flex defense equal to their strength plus an additional 150. If this power clashes against a technique that reinstates cutback, this power is treated as 1 class lower.



Akki: The users eyes become bright red (Iris and sclera) and they emit an aura like an Akki. The power gained from this Beast is the ability to form and shoot balls of white hot flames that cost 400 reiatsu each at learned, they cost 250 reiatsu each at proficient, and 100 each at mastered (They use RS as their OS). These balls of fire are at most class 4 and can be no bigger then a soccer ball or smaller than a golf ball that travel at Bala speed.



Hason: The users skin gains an orange tint and they give off an aura that feels as if they were a Hason. The power gained from this Beast is the ability to force a torrent of Hason reiatsu to flow through their body. The user may choose to pay up to 200 reiatsu per post to gain a 1 in Pain Tolerance at learned, they may pay up to 400 reiatsu for a 2 in pain tolerance at proficient, and they may pay up to 600 reiatsu for pain tolerance 3 at mastered. When the user activates the Beast's power the must pay at least the 200 at learned per post.



The user of this technique can only ever draw enough power from the beast to equal a class above their own (Roughnecks can only be equal to their own class) if the class of the Beast is far higher than their own.



How to use technique (How is it activated?): Send reiatsu into the Beast Within seal in order to draw power from the Beast.



Technique Drawbacks (Limitations, repercussions for use, etc): This Technique costs 500 reiatsu in order to draw power from the Beast. Along with the Class 4 TTP cost, in order to become Proficient with this technique the user must use it in 4 different threads (DE Threads count as 2 while Social and Job Threads don't count), and in order to master it the technique must be used in 8 more Threads (Again, DE Threads count as 2 while Social and Job Threads don't count). This technique can only be mastered if the user is equal to or 1 class lower than the Beast sealed within them. Must have had someone with The Beast Within seal a Beast within you. The technique class is locked at whatever class the Beast that was sealed inside was. If the a higher class Beast is intended on being sealed inside the recipient at a later point, they may pay half the TTP cost to seal the new Beast inside while disposing of the old.



At learned if the user has a high spike of negative emotion or is close to being defeated/killed the Beast will run rampant, forcefully activating the technique at half price but will attack anyone it notices. At proficient this will only happen if the user is close to being defeated or killed, at mastered the user can keep this from happening.



In order to learn a beast within seal (including this one), you must have a point in either Calm Mind or Strength of Will for each Seal.

{Bringer Dark}Technique Name: [Bringer Dark]



Class: [3]



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



Usable By (Technique is available to which races?): [Saika, Nakabakki]



Technique Element: [Hellfire]



Technique Description and Effects (Explain appearance, powers, and effect): [Insert Below]



Bringer Dark is the Hellish side of Bringer Light. It takes its origins in the Saika’s Dark Skill, which is like an Evil Fullbring. While Saika are capable of learning Bringer Light, it is not the best step technique that they are capable of learning. Bringer Dark starts as a 10x step speed for 50 reiatsu, then increases the same way Bringer Light does. The second step is a 13x increase, and costs 100 Reiatsu. The third step is a 15x increase, and costs 200 Reiatsu. From there, the cost doubles with each additional step, and the speed increase goes up by 1 time. Meaning the fourth step is 16x and 400 Reiatsu and the fifth is 17x and 800 Reiatsu. Bringer Dark is inferior to Bringer Light, in that it cannot go above the 5th step.



However, unlike Bringer Light, Bringer Dark does not leave a column of light where they used to be. Instead, it leaves an explosive force of Hellfire. Hellfire burns black, and burns even substances that are usually nonflammable, such as stone and even water. Anything of inferior offensive stat within a 1 foot radius of the step will be set ablaze. For every incremental step, the range of the fire also increases by 50%.



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



Concentrate reiatsu in the feet, remember Hell, and step.



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



While Nakabakki are capable of learning any step technique, in order to learn this one they must have visited Hell in the past or be taught this technique by a Saika.



Stepping more than 3 times consecutively using Bringer Dark will start to cause the user’s feet to blister and burn. Beyond 5 times total in a thread, without healing, the user will develop painful burns on the feet which will only get worse with more uses.
