Familiar

[Impossible]

Technique Name: [Familar]

Class: [2]

Technique Type: [Manifestation]

Usable By: [Human world dwellers, save for mod souls]

Technique Element: [various]

Technique Description and Effects: [This ability does exactly what the name implies, summon a familiar. A familiar, to those unfamiliar with the term, is something commonly used by magic users to aid them, be it in fights, or to increase the success of spells, often taking on the appearance of animals, like the black cat to the witch, or the bat to the vampire. This ability does something similar, creating a being to aid you with various tasks. For fullbringer's, the familiar will take the form of a small rodent or bird, though it can also take the form of serpents or lizards if the caster's heart is dark enough.

For the bount, a familiar will generally take the appearance of a bat or even a medium sized dog if they're strong enough. Quincy almost always summon birds that are common in the region that they are summoned in, though they can also summon cats. As for failure's, thanks to their shifting and unstable reiatsu, they tend to summon either disturbing fusions of small animals, or small plants with faces. While each user of this ability generally only gets one based off of their personality, the familiar can also change to their environment if called for.

If they need to travel by water, they have the ability to change into a fish. That's about it.

Each Familiar has a powerful reiatsu suppression abilities, able to hide from those with energy sensory 400 or less. Familiar's aren't just techniques though, they are also sentient, having the ability to think for themselves while away from their caster. While summoned, the caster and Familiar share senses with one another, knowing exactly what the other sees, feels, thinks, and knows. They also have the ability to use all non-release techniques that the caster knows.]

How to use technique: [Placing your hand on the ground, the user pours half of their total reiatsu into the ground, and their Familiar will be created based on their personality. The familiar has half of the user's spiritual pressure stat, as well as half of all of their sensory stats. The rest of their stats are equal to their caster's. Each Familiar has a special ability known as 'hide'. This allows them to blend in with the environment, avoiding detection from foes passively, if they haven't used an ability within four posts.

Having a familiar does not drain the user's stamina. ]


Technique Drawbacks: [Activation of this costs four things. First, the user immediately loses half of their total reiatsu while this ability is active, along with splitting all of their sensory stats in half. Familiar's have no duration, but cost 10 reiatsu per post, draining from their own reiatsu pool instead of their creators. Familiar's are fragile, easily able to be killed by an attack with 50 or more strength. If they die, either by finally losing all of their reiatsu, or by damage, the user's stats will return to them, but not the reiatsu they spent on creating them.]

Not gonna fly as it is. For Failures, equal RS stat including Type, can use any of the user's non-Release techniques, and only cost ten Reiatsu per post. The cost alone is absurd for a summoning technique, and the stats on top of it? No. And then you've got equal Speed/Strength (so physical users can also abuse this to make an absurdly strong physical fighter at again, ten Reiatsu per post.), and access to step techniques, so high mobility. Linked senses which makes lowered senses negligible since you can see/smell/hear/feel from different locations at different angles, covering any weakness created. And then having what is roughly equal to a 4 in Stealth and abusing a low-value stat to give them nearly complete ability to disappear. And random transformation? No. Way too much, way too little drawback.

Couple of things need to be addressed: first off, summons should not be treated as RPCs. With this, you practically are creating an additional RPC. You should only be doing that through the NPC system or making a new character. Stats should be much lower if they're going to have a full stat spread; few techniques let the user summon a full-powered creature. An example is the Vizard technique that lets them summon their Inner Hollow; they can only do it as long as they have their mask up or for five posts and has a 300/post cost on top of initial activation. The Inner Hollow also takes five techniques off of the user's list, and actually makes the user unable to use them, rather than sharing them. Much stronger limits in duration, cost, and ability access.

Alternatively, let's look at Spiritual Projection. This technique lets the user summon their Zanpaktou Spirit at a one-time cost of 400 Reiatsu, with an unlimited duration on its use. The Zanpaktou Spirit has a copy of the master's stats. But there is nothing that lists that they have a full range of techniques in the technique itself, and though there is a mention of Reiatsu use, there's nothing that lists the ability to actually USE Reiatsu. So while they'll copy the user's stats and have a smaller cost, they do not have listed access to techniques, including steps, making them far more vulnerable. And their death doesn't just return abilities to the user, it actually cuts Release duration heavily.

So yeah, as it is, Familiars are far too strong as they are. I'd say they should have half of the user's stats at best if they're going to have a full spread, or certain static stats otherwise. Shared senses is fine, but stealthiness needs to be cut down a bit. ES requirement of 150 tops, reduced by 50 per Anti-Stealth. Shared technique pool is fine, but you're going to have to increase per-post cost to at least 250/post, imo.
