Technique Name: Bloodtalons
Technique Class: 4-1 - 60 TTP.
Technique Type: Bount Technique.
Usable By: Bount.
Technique Element: Blood.
Technique Cost: Varies.
Description: Weaponizing their own body in ways never before tried, the user of this technique is capable of producing close-range attacks through the expulsion and manipulation of their own blood. Utilizing the same idea as shockwaves, and by swinging about the tips of their fingers like one would with claws, the user can release sharp, slashing streams of blood that trail behind their movements. These slashes, being completely tied to the Bount's body, rely on the user's Strength in order to deal damage, and are thus treated as "Classless". These slashes can arc as tall as the Bount is capable of moving their arms, and five total slashes with each finger will be about as wide as the Bount's body is. These slashes are incapable of traveling more than five feet away from the Bount, and will dissipate after reaching those distances. At Proficient, these expulsions need not be from the fingertips, and can instead be from anywhere on the body. At Mastered, releasing these expulsions of blood have no "start-up" time, meaning the user need not take physical action to release them.
For a Reiatsu cost based on the Class the Bount would like to use the technique at, these slashes can be imbued with spiritual properties. Instead of utilizing Strength, these spiritually-charged slashes will rely on Reiatsu Strength, can travel up to fifty feet at a time, and are far more versatile. Instead of just appearing as claw-like slashes, these streams of blood can be shaped post-expulsion as the Bount sees fit, creating bladed rings of blood, thin manipulable wires, and more. Every post that these expulsions of blood are maintained cost 1/4 the reiatsu cost of utilizing a technique of the same Class (i.e. a Class 1 expulsion would cost 800 Reiatsu to create, and 200 per post to maintain).
How to Use: Release blood from the body, and optionally charge it with reiatsu.
Drawbacks: The range on these attacks are quite limited for strength-inclined fighters. For Reiatsu-focused fighters, this technique can be quite costly to use at high classes too often, and can prove taxing to one's reiatsu pool because of it. Due to the focus required in order to weaponize the body, and the strain put on releasing that much blood at once, releasing even one doll while using the physical variant of this technique is dangerous; utilization will result in the Doll turning against its user for three posts, taking advantage of that strain in an attempt to harm their user (said strain remains minuscule to the user in regards to an opponent taking advantage of this technique, however).
Incantation: N/A.
