Technique Name: Advanced Air Arsenal: Air Veil
Class: 5, 3
Technique Type: Reishi Technique
Usable By: Any
Technique Element: None
Technique Description and Effects (Explain appearance, powers, and effect):
This technique continues the lineage of the basic principle of creating usable surfaces by collecting and focusing ambient reishi mixed with one's reiryoku. In this instance, is the use similar to an afterimage. By collecting reishi around the entirety of one's body, the user creates a sort of shell. And by doing so, this shell can be left behind. This shell infused with a mix of the user's reiryoku and ambient reiatsu can be used to take hits and serve as a decoy as it's reiatsu signature will match the user's. However, when injured, the copy is hardly similar to a proper cadaver and generally can be discerned by those with at least 150 senses or ES (increased by 75 per point in stealth, countered by the enemy's anti-stealth). And this is generally if the technique is a dead-fire, it is generally more difficult to discern mid-attack.
For each use of this technique, the user can produce up to three shells (increasing to four at proficient, and five at mastered) which can be used up like ammunition. Because of this, this technique is more unpredictable than usual in that the surge of reiatsu in activating the technique can be used preemptively, and then the technique can come into play later on in the fight. This technique cannot be re-activated until the initial number of shells has been exhausted (including activation at a different class).
At class 3, this technique becomes much more useful! By using much more skill and care in the making of this shell, the user can make it much more believable. At this class, the user can cause the shell to bleed, make very brief noises, and even seem to crumple or collapse realistically as more mass and energy goes into the making of this double. If the user has any skill in Disguise or Crafting then this shell can be even harder to discern, adding additional 75 points to the es/senses requirement as if the user had extra points in stealth (only up to 3 points can be contributed from disguise/crafting).
Technique Drawbacks Standard Reiatsu costs (100 reiatsu at class 5, 400 reiatsu at class 3), additionally this technique requires that some level of Advanced Air Platforms and Advanced Air Arsenal be learned. Additionally, because of the detail and effort put into the shells at class 3, the user has one less shell stored up on use (at mastered a user can have 5 class 5 shells, but only 4 class 3 shells). Additionally, this technique does NOT hide the user, and as such can be predictable without the use of step techniques in conjunction.

Technique Name: Advanced Air Arsenal: Air Trap
Class: 6-1
Technique Type: Reishi Technique
Usable By: Any
Technique Element: None
Technique Description and Effects (Explain appearance, powers, and effect):
This technique was something of a happy accident. Whilst delving into the intricacies of forming these air structures, it was discovered that even in failure, one can succeed. This technique intentionally creates flawed and imperfect reishi plates in proximity to the user, such that when it comes into abrupt contact with an attack or enemy, the plate ruptures and disrupts the enemy. These plates are specially formed with an imperfection on only one side of the plate, and as such when they go off, the effect is directional, allowing the user to remain unaffected.
At class 6, this technique causes an outward burst of reishi particles and a shockwave. At this class the effect is not physically damaging, but does have an effect similar to a flashbang. At learned, the user is exempt from the flash, but not the bang. At proficcient, the user is partially protected by the loud noise of the plate going off. At mastered, this technique will not harm or disorient the user at all.
Max Plate size: 1 cubic meter
At class 5, this technique has some oomf to it. When a plate is set off, the burst of reishi is actually damaging. Getting struck by this reishi shrapnel can break the skin and even damage the eyes or other sensitive tissues of the target, in addition to displacing the air around the blast by the outward force.
Offensive strength: 350
Max Plate size: 2 cubic meters
At class 4, this technique becomes more dangerous. Able to penetrate both skin layers and into the muscle, this technique is considered potentially lethal depending on the part of the opponent struck by this burst.
Offensive strength: 500
Max Plate size: 3 cubic meters
At Class 3, this technique can rip it's way through flesh and muscle, and even perforate internal organs. It is considered very lethal at this class.
Offensive strength: 650
Max Plate size: 4 cubic meters
Class 2 not only causes shrapnel and concussive damage, but also generates heat, making this technique dangerous even for those with impact and puncture defenses, and making regeneration more difficult by cauterizing the wounds inflicted.
Offensive strength: 800
Max Plate size: 6 cubic meters
Class 1 plates are incredibly dangerous, not only for the target, but anything that might be behind them as well. At this class, the explosion produces incredible heat and even sends spikes of reishi shrapnel flying, overpenetrating targets and damaging materials behind them as well. At this class, one must start to seriously worry about the deaths of bystanders.
Offensive strength: 950
Max Plate size: 10 cubic meters
Technique Drawbacks Reiatsu costs. Additionally, these plates while translucent and mildly hard to see, are hardly invisible. The user must strategically place them, and even then a target may typically back off from an attack if they suspect the plate is a trap. That said, while the plate is hardly invisible, it is not distinguishable from other forms of Advanced Air Arsenal.
Additionally, the form of these plates is limited by one's skills in the technique. At learned, one can simply make square or rectangular plates. At Profficient, one can actually give simple form, and at Mastered one can craft almost any structure they wish.

Technique Name: Advanced Air Arsenal: Air strings
Class:8-1
Technique Type: Reishi Technique
Usable By: Any
Technique Element: None
Technique Description and Effects (Explain appearance, powers, and effect): This technique is much more refined and eloquent than the other methods of Advanced Air Arsenal. This technique, rather than generating large structures, instead focuses on the production of condensed and fortified strings of reishi. Wether it's to help wire a trap, to manipulate a far-off object, or just to tie someone up, these threads are very useful.
At class 8, these threads are well...threads. They are considered to have an offensive durability of 25 and anyone with the physical strength to lift themselves off the ground can generally break these strings without any effort. There is nothing particularly special about these strings, other than that the fact that they have such a thin reishi composition and structure that they have literally zero reiatsu signature and can only be sensed physically through sight.
At class 7, these strings gain some utility. The strings can be manipulated by the user and have an offensive durability of 100, increasing by 100 for each class beyond this one (a maximum of 700 durability at class 1).
At class 5, these strings are more than just tools. In addition to being able to be used for a variety of common jobs, these threads actually have the spiritual durability to cut into materials they are braced against. However, due to their thinness, the cutting power of the thread is inferior to it's actual durability, boasting a mere cutting power of 275 at class 5, increasing by 75 per class ( 350 at class 4, 425 at class 3, 500 at class 2, 575 at class 1).
Finally, at class 2, these strings are pretty high-quality. Not only improving in durability and cutting power, but also holding the power to be spiritually conductive, allowing the user to channel other techniques through the strings as though they were an extension of the user's body.
Technique Drawbacks Reiatsu cost. Additionally, these strings can only last up to 5 posts, increasing to 10 posts at proficcient, and 15 posts at mastered.
