Made some mechanical adjustments to the following techniques.
Technique Name: [Vita Sollertia: Integumentum]
Class: [1]
Technique Type: [Vita Sollertia]
Usable By (Technique is available to which races?): [Rogues]
Technique Element: [Metal]
Technique Description and Effects (Explain appearance, powers, and effect): [Insert Below]
The bakkoto is a parasite that feeds off of its host. While it harms the rogue, it also needs to keep the rogue alive so that it may continue to live off them. This technique is one in which the bakkoto expands to create a defensive layer over the host, much like an armor. Wherever the bakkoto lays within the user, it will begin to expand. By paying 100 reiatsu and life force, the user may have the bakkoto form a partial armor of spiritual steel over the nearest region of the body. For example, if the bakkoto resides in the user’s arm, the armor will only stretch up to the user’s shoulder, protecting the full arm. If the bakkoto is in the user’s chest or abdomen, it will protect the user’s front and back, but not their head or limbs. And so on. However, if the user pays 300 reiatsu and life force, the armor will cover their entire body. It will move with the user so as not to inhibit them, creating a very flexible yet sturdy defense. Its durability is equal to that of the user's release weapon.
Despite being composed of spiritual steel, the armor is very in-tune with the user, almost like an exoskeleton of their body. It can even trigger cutback if a susceptible target strikes it. But that’s not its only special property. If the user anticipates a heavy impact, they may pay an additional cost of 200 reiatsu and life force to completely negate the force of that impact. This is only effective if the impact is not strong enough to break the armor. The purpose of property is for the armor to not only withstand the force of a punch but also prevent the user from being knocked into the air by that force.
How to use technique (How is it activated?):
Pay the cost an activate.
Technique Drawbacks (Limitations, repercussions for use, etc) (Insert Below)
This defense is anything but perfect. Firstly, the only gap in the armor are slots for the eyes. Still, with the user’s ears and nose covered, all their senses except for vision will be reduced to 50. Also, the armor greatly increases the stamina drain of fast-paced movement due to its extra weight. Without the armor, individuals could move at 300 speed without fatiguing, but now, that cap is reduced to just 200 speed. Moreso, it is still made of spiritual steel, so the armor as the same weaknesses as metal. It prone to overheating, so cooking the user within the armor is twice as easy. Furthermore, the conductive nature of the metal makes electricity or lightning-based attacks twice as effective against the target. Because the armor is an extension of the bakkoto, if it is broken, the user’s release will automatically end and they will not be able to release for another 3 posts. The armor lasts 5 posts before the user must refresh the cost.

Technique Name: [Vita Sollertia: Telum]
Class: [2]
Technique Type: [Vita Sollertia]
Usable By (Technique is available to which races?): [Rogues]
Technique Element: [None]
Technique Description and Effects (Explain appearance, powers, and effect): [Insert Below]
Shinigami of Soul Society have Soul Projection to manifest their zanpakuto as other weapons or even summon a physical form of their zanapkuto spirit. Vita Sollertia: Telum is the Rogue equivalent. Most bakkoto do not appear as a weapon in the sealed state, but this technique remedies that flaw. The user may create summon weapon that would be treated as a manifestation of their bakkoto. The exact appearance of this weapon is up to the user. Its durability is equal to that of the user's release weapon.
More complex weapons cost more reiatsu and take more focus to create. For this reason, it’s simplest to create weapons that the user is already familiar with. It is impossible to create weapons one has never seen before. The user may only create a weapon in which they have invested skill points into, although points in crafting allows the user to make any weapon they desire. The cost system works the same as that of Soul Projection. A knife costs 25 reiatsu. A sword, axe or spear costs 50 reiatsu. A firearm costs 100 reiatsu. A grenade costs 150 reiatsu. A rocket launcher costs 200 reiatsu. A car or vehicle costs 250 reiatsu.
Here’s where things get interesting. Now, the user can manifest the parasitic spirit of their bakkoto. By paying a cost of 400 reiatsu and life force, one can call upon their bakkoto to take on a physical form. The exact appearance of the bakkoto is up to the user, although it cannot resemble a human. The bakkoto is a very animalistic creature, and so it will take on a more wild or demonic form. The parasite will have a speed of 800 and strength of 500. The user may choose to either determine certain targets for the parasitic weapon to pursue or do the opposite and specify individuals that it may not hurt, thus setting it on a destructive rampage toward its targets. It possesses 150 instinct and senses, and its durability is equal to that of the user’s release weapon. Bakkoto are not sentient like zanpakuto spirit, so while they will respond to simple mental commands, they do not communicate back. The bakkoto’s main goal is destruction. This is what sets Telum apart from Soul Projection. The Shinigami may call upon their intelligent zanpakuto spirits for aid, while rogues can instead release a monster into the world to wreck havoc on their behalf.
How to use technique (How is it activated?):
Pay the cost and activate it to summon your weapon near you.
Technique Drawbacks (Limitations, repercussions for use, etc) (Insert Below)
Other than reiatsu and life force costs, there are other drawbacks to Vita Sollertia: Telum. If the parasite the user creates is destroyed, the rogue’s release will immediately shut down and they will not have access to their bakkoto for a three post, leaving them vulnerable and release-less in that time. Furthermore, the parasitic spirit can only survive outside the user for 8 posts. Before the 8 posts are over, the parasite must return to the user and merge with them once more. If the bakkoto fails to do so fater the post duration ends, the user will suffer the same drawbacks as though the parasite were killed. When learned and proficient with Telum, one can only manifest one physical form of their bakkoto. However, if this technique is mastered, the user can even call upon two identical manifestations of his bakkoto.
