       RP Profile: Kitsune Resei
       By: Zorbak the Ebil Moglin Date: May 29, 2019, 9:27 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       "Among all the death wraith... I am unique. I'm the only known
       death wraith in eons that has managed to be able to use the
       power of both light and shadow."
       "You really are an idiot, aren't you? You thought you could
       out-wit me with half-assed research?"
       "Sorry... It's easy to dodge you when you move in such a
       predictable pattern. This fight might have been interesting if
       you were a bit smarter..." - Kitsune to an opponent he was
       fighting.
       "I'm Kitsune Resei... P.I. (Private Investigator). And head of
       Shadow Realm Investigations." - Kitsune introducing himself to
       someone
       "You should never judge people by appearances alone. I may look
       weak, but I'm actually far tougher than you realize. I think
       most people forget just how dangerous a smart fighter can be."
       "Yeah... Kierran Black and I nearly killed each other when I got
       to this universe... We're both only ever used to seeing evil
       versions of the other in other universes and we didn't know that
       when we got here. I just saw a guy who killed my best friend,
       and Kierran saw a revived rival who tried to kill his wife.
       So... Yeah... That was an awkward meeting." - Kitsune about
       meeting the Crow Mercenaries version of Kierran Black
       *During a conversation with Blademaster Raven.*
       Raven: Your P.I. rival has something to hide. Everyone does.
       Kitsune: It won't matter... We P.I.s don't leave evidence behind
       that can get us into trouble... At least, not the good ones.
       Raven: So what... We give up?
       Kitsune: *Stops and looks sarcastically at Raven.* You don't
       know me at all do you? *He pulls out a file out of the drawer.*
       We don't go after him... We go after people close to him. He
       can't cover up all his friends dirty secrets.
       Raven: Okay... That makes more sense. But isn't that a bit
       dirty?
       Kitsune: Trust me... His friends have some really dirty secrets.
       You won't feel so bad once you learn them and find out how bad
       his friends are.
       *During an investigation where he and Raven were looking to get
       into a building.*
       Raven: It's locked... We're gonna have to come back lat- *He
       stops as Kitsune pulls the door open, breaking the lock in the
       process with his enhanced strength.*
       Kitsune: There's no lock anymore. *He says jokingly.*
       Raven: Wait... You're breaking and entering? Isn't that against
       the rules as a P.I.?
       Kitsune: There's nowhere I can't go. *He says jokingly with a
       smile as he goes into the building.*
       *During a conversation between Kierran and Kitsune in the Exiles
       Universe.*
       Kierran: The cop I sent him to killed him immediately then tried
       to kill me... I want to hire you to find out where he went so I
       can find out why.
       Kitsune: *Kitsune adjusts his glasses.* Kierran... You think it
       will stop there?
       Kierran: *Stops and thinks for a moment.* Uh... Would you be
       surprised if I said yes?
       Kitsune: *Sighs.* It doesn't take a P.I. to realize there's more
       corrupt cops than there should be in this town. Take him down,
       another will come after you. You need to figure out who's at the
       top of these dirty cops and who wanted your guy dead.
       Kierran: Okay Sherlock... Do that then.
       Kitsune: It won't be easy. But I think the two of us should be
       able to do it... *He smiles.* Junior associate.
       Kierran: Oh... I'm an associate now that you need me, is that
       it?
       Kitsune: Your case, you gotta help me out. *He says jokingly.*
       Kierran: Asshole... *He says with a sigh.*
       Kitsune: *Gets serious as he gets up.* Oh... And don't expect to
       find the cop. I suspect he's dead in an ally somewhere in order
       to cover up the incident.
       Kierran: Just find someone to let me use my sword on, please,
       before I use it on you. *He says sarcastically.*
       Name: Kitsune "Light-Walker" Resei
       Other Known Aliases: The Light-bringer, The God-Killer, The P.I.
       Planeswalker, Twilight Walker
       Age: Unknown
       Species: Death Wraith
       Gender: Male
       Hunter Group/Team:
       - Neutral
       - Works with the Exiles and Crow Mercenaries from time to time
       Weapons:
       - Soul Sword: Kami-kira (The God Killer): This rapier-style
       sword is Kitsune's death wraith weapon, which is somewhat unique
       among death wraith. Kitsune is able to use both light and
       shadows, which is reflected in his soul sword. He is able to use
       this sword in order to control both light and shadow, often
       using a combination of the two. Almost all of his attacks with
       this sword are two-fold, one light and one dark. When he fires
       energy waves, or slashes, there are always two he fires with one
       attack. This sword is also sometimes referred to by other death
       wraiths as "Double Slash" due to it's dual attack power. This
       weapon has the ability to draw in shadows and use shadows around
       the area, and can harness light reflected off the blade as well
       as drawing in light from the area around Kitsune. Kitsune's soul
       sword also has another unique power, in which he is able to use
       it and it's light and darkness to slay any kind of creature.
       This ability works similarly to a death scythe, where it is able
       to kill any creature with it's blade or with it's dark and light
       manipulation, which also work like a death scythe. Those struck
       by the blade will have trouble regenerating for up to 3 turns
       when hit by the blade or it's light and dark powers, and if
       Kitsune hits the heart or brain of a user, he can kill them like
       a death scythe would. This blade can also be empowered by
       Kitsune's spirit energy which shines blue unlike most death
       wraiths.
       - Hanzamune (Gun): This gun is a special gun made from a melted
       down legendary sword. This gun has a special effect on the
       bullets fired from it, where the barrel burns runes into the
       bullets as they are fired. This gun can fire shots that are able
       to pierce dimensions, allowing Kitsune to use this gun to fire
       bullets that can act as dimension cutter attacks. When the
       bullets are fired, the runes are burned into the bullets and
       split through objects by separating them through space and time.
       This is useful for dangerous opponents who can't be hurt
       normally, and for fighting opponents with tougher skin than
       most, since this can cut through time and space rather than
       through the body. As a result, these bullets don't slow down
       when they hit an object, continuing as long as no other
       dimension cutter attack stops them. This is useful against those
       with strong armors, or against those that cannot be heart
       easily, since these bullets can pierce almost any kind of armor
       or weapon, unless it is a dimension cutter weapon, or a
       being/item that exists on multiple dimensional planes. This gun
       was melted down from the legendary sword Kitsune used to wield
       in his world.
       Death Wraith Abilities:
       - Unique Death Wraith Physiology: Being of Light and Shadows: It
       is very rare, but every now and then a unique death wraith is
       born that gains the power of both light and shadow, being one of
       the rare mutations of the death wraiths that randomly appears
       similar to rare mutations like the primordial powers of Anna
       Shadow. Kitsune is a very rare mutation among death wraiths that
       only comes up once every 4-7 generations. It isn't known what
       causes this mutation, and why it isn't passed on through
       families (This mutation is one of the few not passed on through
       genetics), as children of these rare mutations seem to have kids
       that are normal death wraiths and don't inherit this mutation.
       However, this rare breed is different in that they are not only
       a powerful mix of darkness and death like normal death wraiths,
       but are also a mix of light and dark power as well. As such,
       their souls and powers tend to be unique, and sometimes even
       frightening to other death wraiths who fear these unique
       mutations will turn on the other death wraiths. Due to this,
       most of the time these mutations appear, they are often either
       watched, or exiled if the person proves to be too different or
       disobedient. Kitsune is one of these rare mutations, and has the
       unique physiology of these rare mutations. This unique mutation
       makes him much tougher than typical death wraiths.
       - Unique Death Wraith Spirit User: In his universe, Kitsune was
       one of the strongest spirit energy users in his world, in which
       he gained  this ability after finding out about his unique
       physiology. In skill, his only spirit energy user equivalent was
       his rival Kierran Black, who Kitsune often had to fight against.
       In order to take advantage of his skills, he learned to use his
       spirit energy, which is unique to him since his spirit possesses
       both light and dark power. Kitsune is able to shift his spirit
       to light or dark at will, or a mix of the two depending on what
       he wants to do. For the most part, his spirit energy tends to be
       neutral unless he uses this, since normally the light and dark
       cancel each other out in his soul and just allow him typical
       pure spirit power similar to what humans possess. This is a
       pretty good power for Kitsune, since he has a bit more options
       than many other spirit users do and can use other powers in his
       spirit energy that people don't always have access to. Kitsune
       also has fairly strong spirit aura, which is much stronger than
       some other spirit powers, probably due to his rare mutation and
       his slight spiritual mutation he gained during his world's fight
       against his version of Kierran and Anna who almost killed him.
       - Shadow Manipulation/Primordial Shadows Manipulation: Thanks to
       the death wraiths being created from shadows of the shadow
       realm, they are able to manipulate/control shadows and even
       manipulate primordial shadows from the shadow realm. They are
       able to use shadows much like other shadow users, being able to
       use shadows to attack opponents. Being masters of shadows, death
       wraiths are masters of not only attacking with shadows, but
       using different forms of shadows. They are able to do things
       like creating special unique shadow techniques based in their
       skillset,
       change the physical form of shadows into liquid or solid, or
       even change the acidity of shadows. Certain people have even
       developed unusual darkness abilities, sometimes even being
       variations of typical shadows, such as Kierran Black's abnormal
       darkness. Their base darkness powers are normal shadows and
       primordial shadows, despite how their manipulations are used.
       Normal shadows don't cost as much power to use but are less
       powerful, while primordial shadows are more powerful than normal
       shadows but cost more power to use as a result. Of course, as
       one might guess, most types of shadows are counterable by light,
       or in some cases, life energy in the cases that certain shadows
       can't be dispelled by light alone.
       - Light Manipulation/Primordial Light Manipulation: Thanks to
       his rare mutation, Kitsune has the ability to manipulate light
       just as he does shadows. And just as death wraiths can
       manipulation primordial shadows, Kitsune can also manipulate
       primordial light. Using light, Kitsune is able to manipulate
       light to do many different things like being able to create
       spears of light, reflect light off surfaces, fire beams of light
       or even manipulate light to create illusions/mirages. Unlike
       shadows which are more liquid-like in form when not hardened,
       light manipulation is more like beams of energy or sometimes
       more like glass depending on how it's focused. And just as
       Kitsune can create unique darkness attacks, Kitsune is also able
       to unique light attacks, such as a flashbang attack that can
       fire beams of light at opponents to damage them, or an attack
       where he uses reflected light to attack people. For the most
       part, he is able to use both primordial light and normal light,
       with him being able to use it opposite of his darkness.
       Primordial light is much more powerful than normal light, but
       costs more energy to use as a result, making it better for
       stronger enemies that aren't hurt by normal light attacks. Of
       course, as one might expect, light's main counter is darkness,
       or using something like ice or water to absorb or reflect light
       as well.
       - Twilight/Twilight Realm Manipulation: By mixing Kitsune's
       light and dark power, he is able to create a mix of light and
       dark energy in the form of twilight manipulation. His twilight
       is a balance of mixed essence of light and dark, making it a
       neutral power. And instead of using primordial light and shadow,
       Kitsune is able to draw on the Twilight realm's mixed light and
       dark, with the Twilight realm being a realm between the Shadow
       realm and the living world which is often referred to as the
       "light world" where some dangerous souls are cast if they are a
       threat to both the light and shadow realms. By drawing from this
       realm, Kitsune is able to use a powerful twilight manipulation
       that is on par with primordial light and shadows, which costs
       more energy, but does more damage. Twilight energy is powerful,
       being able to damage creatures of both light and shadow as a
       result of being a mix of the two. Using this, Kitsune is able to
       attack with this energy, using it to do things like create
       spears of twilight, create twilight in an area to weaken certain
       types of opponents, and even using this to corrupt light and
       dark energies. This energy is the about the same level as normal
       dark and light, and just mostly acts as a way to damage both
       light and dark creatures. This can be countered with either
       light or dark, or other energies as well that can counter this
       power.
       - Shadow Meld/Planeswalking: This lets a death wraith travel
       around using shadows, as they are able to fuse into shadows and
       go anywhere in the world as long as there is access to a shadow,
       granted there is no supernatural warding for teleportation. By
       using shadows, they are able to travel through the shadow realm,
       which connects every realm. In addition to being able to go
       anywhere in the world, they are also able to go between
       afterlife realms as well, in which they are able to also go
       between the Veil where human souls remain after they die, since
       their job requires taking souls to the afterlife. They also have
       connection to go to the Hall of Souls, in which they usually
       bring lost souls or souls that aren't recorded to go anywhere
       else. Thsi technique requires only a death wraith to know where
       they want to go, though since they are born and raised in the
       shadow realm, most death wraith know their way around
       instinctively. This can also be used in battle to a degree, if
       the death wraith can meld into a shadow if they want to teleport
       around the battlefield. Some death wraiths call this "shadow
       walking". Death wraiths can stay in shadows for an extended
       amount of time, but if the shadow they are in is destroyed, they
       risk taking damaged when forced out of the shadow if the shadow
       is destroyed by something like a flashbang.
       - Light Walking/Planeswalking Variation: While Kitsune can still
       travel the shadow realm and shadow walk like other death wraiths
       by using sources shadows, Kitsune also has a somewhat unique
       ability in that he can also meld into sources of light and
       travel through sources of light similarly to how he would
       shadows. This lets him travel between the light and dark realms,
       as well as traveling through the Twilight realm, which normally
       wouldn't allow light or dark users to travel there without
       getting stuck in that world due to not having a separation of
       light and dark. Thanks to this ability, Kitsune is able to
       travel through light in order to not only travel the real world,
       but travel to other planes of light, such as traveling to a
       realm of beings of light that is somewhere not even light users
       tend to be able to access. For the most part, Kitsune still
       travels to the realms of life and death like everyone else, but
       his light melding/light walking lets him travel as an alternate
       method if he doesn't want to use his shadow walking. This is
       usually good for avoiding death wraiths, since death wraiths
       cannot follow him when he is in the "light realm" (when he is in
       a source of light). Just as death wraiths can be damaged by
       forceful exit of shadows, destroying a light source can also
       damage Kitsune if he has to be forced out of a light source.
       - Dark to Light Plane Transition/Twilight Realmwalking: Because
       Kitsune is able to travel both light and shadow, Kitsune is able
       to also shift from plane to plane, not just using the living
       world, but using the boundary of mixed light and dark to shift
       from light to dark planes and vice versa. This lets him use
       light and dark to transition, such as going from a source of
       light straight into a shadow. This grants Kitsune the ability to
       easily shift planes, and makes him very difficult to track if
       someone is trying to chase him down. This ability to shift
       planes works great for helping Kitsune hide from people, but
       also grants him the ability to easily be able to shift into the
       realm of twilight, the realm that has no true light or darkness,
       but simply a mix of light and dark. Most death wraiths and light
       or dark walkers avoid the Twilight Realm, mostly because it
       houses dangerous souls that are cast out if they are a threat to
       both light and dark, but also because those that end up there
       end up trapped there if they cannot do what Kitsune does and
       shift from light to dark. Though Kitsune doesn't have a need to
       go to the Twilight realm, he could go there if he wanted to, and
       he has been useful for certain situations where people have
       needed to send someone to that realm, since he's one of the few
       people that can go to and from that realm.
       - Shadow Stealth/Shadow Presence Suppression: Another technique
       using shadows, where death wraiths are able to hide in shadows.
       Death wraiths are able to blend shadows around them, in which
       they are able to not only become invisible in the shadows, but
       they are also able to hide their presence from other
       supernaturals, not even being able to be sensed by anyone other
       than another death wraith or certain shadow users. Death
       wraiths' natural ability for stealth and shadow melding make
       this a fairly simple technique to them, where they are able to
       do it fairly easily if they have enough shadows to work with. To
       most people, they will just see a typical shadow, which would
       normally not draw any suspicion. Though if the death wraith
       doesn't have enough shadows to work with, the shadow they blend
       with might appear unnatural. This is a technique that death
       wraiths are able to use once mastering shadow melding, making
       stealth even easier.
       - Light Stealth/Light Presence Suppression: Just as normal death
       wraiths can hide in the shadows, Kitsune's rare mutation of also
       being a light user also allows him to hide in the light the same
       way. When Kitsune fuses into the light using  his light walking
       skill, he is able to become invisible in the light, as well as
       hiding his presence from others. Thanks to light walking not
       being a very common skill (since only unique death wraiths that
       gain light really know how to do this), most cannot find Kitsune
       in the light. As such, this lets him hide from people that
       normal death wraiths cannot hide from, since most death wraiths
       cannot detech Kitsune when he's fused in light. Using the death
       wraith's natural ability for stealth and melding, this makes
       Kitsune almost undetectable except by powerful enough light
       users that can sense his physical presence in the light. Kitsune
       is a rare case of being able to be stealthy in both light and
       darkness, with him also being able to use this in the Twilight
       realm if needed in order to hide from people.
       - Shadow/Light/Twilight Regeneration: Depending on where Kitsune
       is, he is able to use both light and dark to regenerate his
       body. Because of his unique abilities, Kitsune can draw in
       either light or darkness, or a mix of the two in order to
       regenerate from injuries. This power has two stages, in which
       death wraiths are able to use the power of shadows to heal. The
       first part of this is that they have a normal regeneration which
       they are able to heal from injuries passively, having
       regeneration similar to other supernaturals. This regeneration
       is able to regenerate damage by using darkness as it's power
       source, whether it is from the area around the death wraith or
       if it comes from the death wraith. This lets them regenerate
       most wounds, though it doesn't let them regenerate organs, their
       brain or help them against iron or blessed sea salt (their
       biggest weaknesses). For Kitsune, he can use this by absorbing
       light or darkness to regenerate. The second stage of this
       involves Kitsune either melding into the light or shadows, where
       he is able to heal much more quickly, and even be able to heal
       his organs or heal from things like iron and blessed sea salt.
       While this doesn't work with things like spiritual infections or
       spiritual poisons, this does help heal from most injuries if
       Kitsune can use the light or dark realms to heal him. However,
       Kitsune's regeneration in these realms is diminished due to him
       being a creature of light and shadow, and the only time he gets
       normal regeneration is in the twilight realm where he can
       regenerate much more easily like normal death wraiths, since his
       power to regenerate using both light and dark is stronger than
       using one on it's own. Being able to use light and shadow makes
       him harder to kill in the normal world, but makes him harder to
       kill if he is in a place like the twilight realm.
       - Death Wraith Elementals: Contrary to popular belief, death
       wraiths don't use shadow elementals, but they use basic
       elementals based on what they have affinities for. However, they
       don't use elementals the same way mortals do, in which they have
       a different understanding of elements than mortals and use them
       a different way. For the death wraiths, elementals exist in one
       of four classes: solid matter manipulation, liquid matter
       manipulation, gas matter manipulation, and plasma matter
       manipulation. Depending on the power gained, most are able to
       gain multiple "elements" used, in which they are able to
       generate these based more on matter manipulation than true
       elementals. Each has it's own benefits, with each having
       strengths and weaknesses. Solid matter manipulation mostly
       involve earth manipulation, where death wraiths are able to
       control anything with solid structure, like glass, sand, dirt,
       rock, and even metal or concrete. Liquid matter manipulation
       lets a death wraith control liquid, in which they are able to
       control anything from acid, to water if it's in liquid form,
       even being able to control the temperature of liquids like
       creating ice and boiling liquid. Gas matter manipulation is
       similar to wind manipulation, where the user is able to control
       anything in gas form. This includes being able to control wind,
       but can be used to do things like manipulate explosive gases,
       create poisonous gases, or even create wind attacks. Plasma
       manipulation involves controlling energy, which usually consists
       mostly of controlling powers like fire, lightning and even
       radiation energy. These powers, however, also come with
       corresponding weaknesses, like solid matter manipulation being
       counterable like any other earth manipulation. Kitsune's
       manipulation is gas manipulation, letting him control the air
       around him and control things like vapor and smoke as well as
       explosive and conductive gases he can convert using this.
       - Expert Gas Matter User: While Kitsune isn't a master level
       user of gas matter, Kitsune can use gases and air for his
       attacks, and can use higher level air manipulation. Kitsune is
       able to manipulate the air around him, usually manipulating
       certain gases. He can do things like create and control water
       vapor, control and use smoke, and use the air to generate
       specific attacks. One skill he has is drawing in explosive gases
       to create an explosive attack that he can ignite with a spark,
       similar to techniques like dragon snap or flame alchemy. This
       technique is designed to create explosive attacks using certain
       gases. Another technique is that Kitsune can create conductive
       attacks using gases to create an electrical charge and create
       lightning attacks using this ability. Kitsune can control gas in
       many forms, and is an expert in chemistry and physics to
       understand how elements interact with each other and how to
       convert these gases and what each gas can do. For example, not
       many know that hydrogen is an explosive gas that can be used to
       ignite a flame attack. For the most part, it's Kitsune's
       knowledge and high intelligence that makes this power dangerous
       to his opponents, since Kitsune knows a lot about the physical
       world and how to use it to his advantage much more than most
       death wraiths do.
       - Adabtability/Power Users: Like most mortals, death wraiths are
       adaptable and able to learn the same abilities as humans can.
       This includes things like magic, mana, psychic, or even
       holy/unholy abilities. A death wraith is able to learn these in
       the same way as humans, such as learning certain arts like mana
       user abilities or spirit energy user abilities. Usually, they
       can learn these from other death wraiths or from the mortals who
       use these techniques. Usually, death wraiths can learn special
       skills depending on their affinities, where they are able to
       learn usually up to two or three special skill sets depending on
       their age and training. For the most part, most typically stick
       to one or two though, since some of the skill sets require
       extensive training and practice to be useful. However, while a
       death wraith gains the strength of whatever class power they
       gain, they also gain the weaknesses, such as magic users being
       weak to magic negation. This applies to all abilities learned,
       which means death wraiths have to weigh strengths and weaknesses
       of classes to find out what will work best for them.
       - Ghost Sight, Ghost Touch and Sense Souls: Since the death
       wraiths were made to interact with the spirits of dead mortals,
       supernaturals, and deities, death wraiths are able to interact
       with almost any manner of spirit or ghost. For the most part,
       death wraiths have multiple abilities dealing with their
       interactions of ghosts, where they are able to interact with
       them in ways most mortals cannot. Since ghosts don't typically
       manifest in the living world until they've become vengeful
       spirits or hollows, death wraiths have to be able to interact
       with ghosts in the veil, which they can do even from the living
       world to a decree. They are also able to fight spirits
       manifested in the living world much more easily. They are able
       to see ghosts, and see their essence even when they are not
       manifested. They are also able to touch, grab and attack ghosts,
       in which they are able to attack them when they aren't
       manifested. Death wraiths are also able to sense ghosts as well,
       having the ability to sense the difference between ghosts and
       demonic entites.
       - Soul Storage/Collection, and Soul Purification: Since it's a
       death wraith's purpose is to collect and shuttle souls to the
       afterlife, death wraiths must have their own ways to take souls
       to the afterlife. Every death wraith has some way to store and
       collect souls, in which they are able to use this to take souls
       with them. For the most part, this skill is pretty self
       explanatory, at least as far as it's purpose. But when it comes
       to functions, this is different for each death wraith. Some can
       do things like storing souls in bottles, some use other objects
       to store souls, or some can even store souls in their bodies
       temporarily. This mostly depends on the death wraith, as they
       all have their own ways of collecting souls for transport to the
       afterlife. The second part of this is a death wraith's ability
       to purify souls. While soul reapers usually take on hollows and
       use their zanpakutos after defeating them to purify them, death
       wraiths are able to remove corruption from souls using their
       power. Usually, this also depends death wraith, as some have
       unique purification techniques for purifying souls. A soul must
       be purified before transport to the afterlife, and any risk of
       being turned hollow or higher level specter must be removed
       before taking them to the afterlife or the Hall of Souls.
       - Soul Absorption/Corruption Absorption (Forbidden Arts): These
       are forbidden arts among death wraiths, as they no longer need
       to use either of these arts to survive. There was a time when
       death wraiths would feed on the corruption of souls in the
       living world, or feed on evil souls in order to survive, but
       eventually the death wraiths adapted to human food, so they no
       longer need to use this. Now, these two arts are forbidden, as
       they can come with more risks than rewards. The first forbidden
       art is soul absorption where the death wraith takes the whole
       soul and devours it, using it for sustanence in the same way a
       human would use a burger. A soul can restore a death wraith's
       energy, and sustain them for up to four hours, and restore a
       death wraith's darkness power if they are low on energy. The
       second technique is corruption absorption. It used to be that
       death wraiths purified souls by absorbing the corruption into
       themselves, where they would devour it as sustanence. This
       allows a death wraith to consume corrupting energy, though death
       wraiths have to specially tune to this diet, since consuming
       this energy can corrupt them if they aren't careful. However,
       the benefit is that the corruption can not only restore a death
       wraith's power (though not to the degree of devouring a soul),
       but the corruption energy can make a death wraith stronger.
       However, the risk to both of these, is that death wraiths can
       poison themselves with these two ways of sustenance if they
       aren't careful with things like hollow power or human emotional
       energy. Kitsune does know how to do this, but has no need to
       since he doesn't have a reason to need to absorb corruption due
       to this being an outdated skill, and Kitsune seeing it more as a
       curse than a blessing due to the risks involved when using this.
       Spirit User Abilities:
       - Spirit Energy Manipulation: Those who use spirit energy
       manipulate spirit energy into attacks and other constructs, a
       power originally perfected by humans to fight supernaturals and
       then modified by other races once they figured out how to use it
       effectively. This skillset is designed around spirit energy
       attacks and focusing on one's spirit, training their spirit
       power. Races all use spirit power different, with some having
       specific skill sets, like certain monks and priestesses having
       specific spirit energy skillsets. When one thinks of specific
       spirit energy skillsets, most people think of soul reapers,
       hollows and arrancars or they may think of holy vampires, and
       some might even think of aura users who use aura as a type of
       spirit energy. In addition to specific skillsets used by certain
       races, they can also learn generic spirit energy training which
       has been set up to grant more ways to use spirit energy to
       attack opponents. This setup uses spirit energy specifically,
       using it similar to how other races use things like mana, ki or
       aura.
       - Unique Spirit Energies/Positive and Negative Spirits:
       Different races have different spirit energies, which often have
       different effects. However, there are two main aspects of spirit
       energy use in battle. The first is using one's own spirit energy
       and it's unique effects. This depends on the race (as each race
       is different), and one must figure out the spirit energies they
       can use. Hybrids may not have as strong energy in one specific
       race type, but usually they often have unique energies that
       blend whatever races they have to create one that is as strong
       as others. (See previous section for races' general unique
       abilities). Some even have unique spirit uses, such as some
       dragons developing dragon hunter spirit energy unique to them or
       developing advanced spirit energy types. The other main aspect
       is that some races learn to utilize positive/negative spirit
       energies in their attacks, using them for different things. The
       most common thing associated with this is the Darkfire's
       elemental abilities which use positive and/or negative spirit
       energy in combination with elementals. It is possible to use
       this on its own to grant a spirit users attacks holy or dark
       attribute. This is more effective for some races than others, as
       some races positive/negative balance doesn't work the same way
       as some, like holy vampires having purely positive energy or
       angels and demons not having a light and dark side but having a
       pure holy or demonic soul depending on the race.
       - Unique Spirit Enhancements: Light/Dark/Twilight Spirit:
       Kitsune has a rather unique soul, in that he can manipulate the
       light and darkness in his soul to different levels. Usually, his
       levels are equal and his light and dark cancel each other out,
       but by manipulating these levels, he can use enhanced spirit
       energy. Kitsune is able to use this to shift his spirit energy
       to light, dark, or a mix of light and dark (twilight), granting
       him multiple ways to channel his spirit energy. While pure
       spirit energy has it's benefits, combining it with light, dark
       or twilight can also have benefits, such as doing more damage to
       specific light and dark users, or using it as a way to enhance
       his spirit energy. The most powerful of his spirit energy uses
       is his twilight spirit, which grants a much more powerful
       spiritual energy, but also requires more energy since it mixes
       two different spirit energies together and blends them rather
       than canceling them out. This can be used with any of his spirit
       energy attacks, and can focus through his techniques for
       additional effects, such as a spirit gun made of twilight spirit
       being able to do more damage to light and dark users. Kitsune
       can also use this with his positive or negative "charge" to
       empower his spirit energy as well.
       - Spiritual Aura Attack/Defense: Almost all spirit energy users
       develop their spiritual aura, gaining an enhanced spirit aura.
       The first use of the spiritual energy aura is a passive defense,
       that can defend the user while active. Similar to those like the
       Darkfires who use elemental auras, spirit energy users can use
       their spiritual auras as a passive defense to dampen blows and
       can even be used to attack if the user can focus their aura into
       attacks. This is a fairly standard ability of those that use
       specific powers in their aura. And depending on the race,
       different auras will be different, such as demon aura being far
       stronger and more potent, or angels having a holy light spirit
       aura. Usually, the amount of spirit power an aura has depends on
       a number of things. For example, larger bodies are able to
       channel stronger spirit energy, as larger bodies generate more
       spirit power. Depending on the race and heritage, some creatures
       have higher enhanced auras with specific effects, and might have
       unique abilities using their aura. For example, Tartaros Kindron
       Darkfire was able to use his aura to empower those with his
       demonic spirit, or certain angels can use their aura to purify
       areas of impure influences. Again, the biggest influence of
       effects and abilities of an aura is what race the person is and
       specific spirit abilities they gain or inherit as a result.
       - Spirit Aura Physical and Supernatural Amplification: Similar
       to abilities like mana amplification and ki amplification,
       spirit energy users also learn to use this power as well. Those
       with the use of spirit energy can amp their abilities the same
       way, using spirit energy to boost their stats and supernatural
       abilities. With it, most spirit energies can a passive amp to
       their abilities that makes ups their stats without them having
       to do anything, but users can also use spirit energy to amp
       themselves more when they need to, powering up with spirit
       energy through their body to amp their body's abilities. One
       such method involves powering up energies in the body with
       spirit energy, creating more powerful energies, such as using
       this to create aura or chakra manipulation. It was through this
       method that the aura abilities were created and certain other
       special spirit based amplifications. This amplification only
       works as long as the body has spirit energy to use to amp the
       body and powers, and without enough of it, this amplification is
       not usable.
       - Spiritual Vectors: This is a technique used by spirit energy
       users, in which they project their spirit from their backs. When
       the spirit's power is released from the back, it's released as
       tendrils that come out as extensions of the spirit that can be
       used to attack opponents. These tendrils are typically very hard
       to see, since they are clear. Some races are able to use
       different shapes, such as one race who makes the tendrils into
       arms with hands at the end of the arms. Depending on the person,
       some people can also change the form of these vectors, such as
       turning the tendrils into shields to block attacks, or can be
       used to do things like create axes or other sharp weapons out of
       the tendrils to attack opponents. These vectors can be used to
       grab and throw objects, attack opponents, or they can be used to
       fire spirit energy attacks. This power is an extension of the
       spirit using spirit energy, and is a power that can be used to
       deadly affect by those who use this power. Those with this power
       can also use this to slice through objects and crush objects
       when used with enough spirit energy, requiring users to be able
       to handle putting a lot of spirit energy into this power. This
       is one of the main attacks of a spirit energy user, as they are
       able to use this in conjunction with other spirit energy attacks
       as well. These vectors can be used to attack opponents or trap
       them if wrapped around them, but must remain connected to the
       body. If removed, the tendrils not only dispel, but the user
       takes spiritual damage to their soul that can weaken them if the
       tendrils are using enough power. Depending on the race, some
       spirit energies can be seen by people more easily, such as a
       death wraith spirit energy being black like shadows, or a demon
       spirit energy being crimson, orange or some form of demonic
       color.
       - Burning Spirit: One of the skills developed by spirit energy
       users where they designed this power so that they could create
       something akin to certain elemental attacks. This one was
       created by using a change of spirit form to intensely vibrate
       spirit energy, generating immense heat so that the spirit energy
       becomes extremely hot and using change of energy form to make
       the spirit like a flame. This particular attack, if not's not
       obvious, is meant to be a fire-like attack, and designed to be
       used like fire. This can be used to attack with spirit energy
       fireballs, create explosive spirit energy attacks and be used to
       burn people through physical touch. Just like spirit lightning,
       this bypasses elemental immunities, being able to burn people
       with spirit energy rather than with actual elemental energies.
       This power is counterable just like fire, except that the fire
       cannot be put out under normal conditions, and has to be blocked
       or dodged. The energy can be dispelled like energy by those that
       can dispel energy, but wind powers or smothering the flames
       doesn't put out the flames. However, the positive side is that
       this attack doesn't do as much damage as typical flames and
       doesn't spread to much beyond it's initial impact. In Kitsune's
       world he come from, he developed this skill in order to counter
       Kierran's spirit lightning he developed after gaining a Seiji
       body after his soul escaped the hall of souls and required
       another body to survive in the living world.
       - Unique Attack: Soul Spear Blizzard: This is one of Kitsune's
       unique spirit energy attacks, designed to counter certain
       abilities used by his universe's Kierran. This creates small
       spears of spirit energy, mixing light and dark spirit spears in
       one large collection. When he fires these, he can focus on one
       target, and the spears will attempt to home in on the person
       Kitsune is focusing on. This can be focused to do a mix of
       light, dark and twilight damage, attacking with a collection of
       spears that use the different elements to confuse and disorient
       the opponent, especially if they try to avoid one type and not
       others, such as a light user trying to avoid dark spears while
       not avoiding light spears. These spears are designed to spear
       opponents, stabbing through them if the spears can pierce
       someone's defenses, which depends on how strong the defenses
       are. Those who are attacked with this usually have to move fast
       to avoid it, and the best way to stop the homing effect is to
       attack Kitsune directly so he loses concentration on who he's
       focusing on. This technique is more about spearing opponents
       than exploding these spears, so the spears don't explode when
       they hit an opponent. Of course, aura breakers are also a good
       way to dispel these.
       - Spirit Gun: This attack was one of the main projectile attacks
       created for the style where the user fires a blast of spirit
       energy at an opponent with explodes on impact. Depending on the
       user, there are different levels of spirit gun techniques.
       Spirit gun is typically the base technique, where the user fires
       a blast of spirit energy, big or small depending on what they
       want to fire. Bigger spirit guns are able to do more damage but
       take more energy, and smaller shots can do less damage but are
       better for the spirit energy. This technique also has another
       variation, which is called Spirit Shotgun where the user focuses
       the spirit gun in their hands and blasts it outward using their
       fingers to split the blast into multiple attacks, generating an
       attack that can be used to hit a group in front of the user,
       being an advanced spirit gun attack. Highly advanced users can
       also use the spirit lightning, burning spirit and cold soul in
       conjunction with this (if they are skilled enough) and can use
       it to empower their spirit gun with more power, or granting the
       energy a special effect, such as spirit lightning spirit guns
       exploding in a burst of spirit lightning when it hits a target.
       Of course, as one might expect, the larger more concentrated
       spirit guns are harder to block, but strong enough defenses can
       block this ability, and this ability can still be dodged like
       normal if one cannot dispel the energy normally. This cannot be
       combined with spirit vectors, and the spirit vectors cannot fire
       this attack on their own, as the energy must be focused through
       the hand, or through the fingers depending on what the person
       wants to do.
       - Spirit Missile: This is a variation technique of the spirit
       gun, where the user creates a spear-like attack to try and
       attack the opponent. This attack is designed to try and pierce
       opponents, where the attack is able to generate one or a group
       of spear like projectiles. Each user is able to form the spirit
       projectiles as they want, such as forming them as knives, as
       sharp spears, or as arrows, depending on what they want the form
       to be. The effect is still the same though where this technique
       is designed to spear opponents. This can also be combined with
       the spirit lightning, burning spirit and cold soul to grant the
       spears additional effects depending on what's used. This can
       also be fired from one's spirit vectors as well, as this was a
       projectile attack designed to be used by spirit vectors. This
       attack is fairly adaptable and those who use it can change it's
       form to better suit what they want the attack to do or what they
       want it to look like. This is a fairly basic attack, but still
       quite effective. Users can fire one or fire a group, though
       firing more or making larger spear projectiles costs more power
       to use. And while these are designed to pierce through armors
       and shields, they can still be dodged, or opponents can use
       cover to make sure they don't get hit.
       - Spirit Sword: This is a variation of the spirit gun, where
       instead of being fired at an opponent, the spirit energy is
       focused into the hand and creates a sword of spirit energy the
       user can attack with. This spirit sword is able to be used like
       a sword, or the user can change the form of the sword into
       another weapon, such as a spear or knife. Users can also change
       the form of the sword if they want to do something like
       extending the sword, or changing the form of the sword, as this
       technique is another technique that is pretty adaptable. This
       technique can be used in creative ways, such as some who change
       it like a chain whip, or some who change the length at will to
       make it extend and try to spear someone. This technique is
       pretty adaptable, being able to be used a variety of ways, and
       depending on the race, this can also have specific attacks, such
       as demonic spirit swords also doing demonic energy damage, or
       dragon spirits being able to do elemental spirit energy damage.
       Some people even develop special sword techniques as well.
       - Severing Soul Cutter: This is a variation of the soul sword
       designed to attack the spirit rather than the body. This attack
       works similar to the spirit sword, but instead of cutting the
       body like normal, this is designed to attack the spirit of the
       user, doing damage to their spirit. While they take no physical
       damage from this technique, this technique can weaken those
       struck with it as their soul is damaged, and may be unable to
       properly control their energies. Some races spirits can also use
       this technique to use different effects, such as death wraiths
       being able to use this to attack ghosts and spirit type
       opponents and do darkness damage to one's soul, which is what
       the death wraith version of this technique was originally
       designed for. This was originally designed to be used against
       hostile spirits, so that this technique could be used to take on
       spirits that would normally not take physical damage. This
       technique also goes through solid matter, and cannot be used to
       block attacks or projectiles unless they are spirit based in
       nature, since this is made to attack on a spiritual plane rather
       than a physical one.
       - Spirit Beam: This was designed to be similar to those that use
       ki beams and like hollows who use ceros. This attack fires a
       beam of spirit energy, very similar in nature to a cero, at the
       opponent to try and damage them. Depending on how the spirit
       beam is fired, it can be fired in a few ways, similar to how
       some hollows have created their own variations of ways to fire
       ceros. The two main ways are usually firing a large beam, and a
       thin beam. Firing a larger beam does more damage to opponents,
       but takes more power. Firing a thin beam is designed more for
       piercing opponents, which requires less power but a more
       concentrated beam. There are other ways to fire this attack as
       well, such as small controlled bursts, or concentrating it
       different ways. And depending on the race, some spirit beams
       will have special effects, like a demon spirit beam being far
       more concentrated than normal and doing demonic energy damage,
       or a dragon spirit beam also being elemental in nature. This can
       also be combined with the burning spirit, spirit lightning, and
       cold soul, in which the power can be used to amp the beam's
       abilities.
       - Spirit Summoning: This particular ability lets one summon
       things hidden in their spirit, specifically things like their
       spirit animal, or the Pai Zhua animal spirit. Users are able to
       tap deep into their spirits and summon constructs of different
       manifestations of the soul, and can summon those manifestations
       using spirit energy in a manner similar to how Pai Zhua summon
       their spirit animals. Depending on the skill set, some people
       can summon multiple creatures from their soul by embodying
       different parts of the soul, and depending on the skillset, some
       can create their own constructs by giving their power to a
       certain part of their soul and generating a spirit-based
       familiar of their own. This power is designed to be very similar
       to Darkfire elemental familiars in nature, beign controlled very
       similarly. The summoned spirit creatures are dependant solely on
       the person and what is in their spirits, with certain races
       spirit constructs also being able to attack using unique spirit
       energy. And in addition to being able to attack opponents, the
       spirit constructs are also able to use spirit energy attacks to
       try and attack opponents. As one might expect, dispelling this
       requires one to dispel the spirit energy that makes them up, or
       overcoming it with other energies (which can destroy it).
       - Spirit Item Posession: This ability lets a user use their
       spirit energy to empower objects around them. This is similar to
       other spirit users who use this, in which objects, weapons and
       armors can be empowered in order to use the spirit energy that
       empowers the object, giving the object a life of it's own by
       giving the item it's own consciousness. Depending on the
       weapon's creator, some items or weapons can actually be turned
       into intelligent weapons this way, or some weapons and items can
       just have a consciousness of their own, which is most common
       with making weapons. Some weapons that have been made in this
       way develop their own abilities and their own ways of
       communicating with their owner, and have their own ways of
       growing. Object and weapons empowered by this gain the spirit
       power of the person who empowered it, which includes the race's
       spirit power, such as a death wraith spirit energy being able to
       be used to make a shadow user weapon, or an angel making a
       weapon a holy weapon by empowering it with their spirit. The
       weapon or item empowered still uses the same powers as the
       person who empowered it to an extent, and that means that they
       have the same weaknesses, such as demons and angels items being
       weak to the opposite force.
       - Spirit Wave: This is one of the strongest abilities of a
       spirit user, designed as one of the most advanced spirit
       techniques one can use. Only those who have mastered the use of
       spirit energy can use this power. When used, this amps the body
       with spirit energy, granting a higher level of focus and power.
       In addition, the spirit power is also amped through the body,
       creating a powerful wave through the body that empowers it even
       more. This technique, when used by a master of spirit power, can
       use this to attack opponents with highly enhanced power
       temporarily, or be used to fire a large wave of spirit energy at
       an opponent. When used, this can also be used to purify others
       of impure influences or purify them of any type of control over
       their mind and body. This is a very powerful technique, but it
       exacts a very heavy toll on the body, doing more damage to the
       body as long as the technique is active, and overuse can weaken
       a user's ability to use spirit energy. And while this is a
       powerful attack, it can be dispelled or blocked by more powerful
       energies, but usually more when it's fired in a wave at an
       opponent.
       - Spirit Share/Spirit Bond: This particular ability was modeled
       after certain other arts where users share space in their minds,
       but instead of doing so, users are able to bond a being to their
       spirits. This is useful for bonding other spirits to one's soul
       if they want to create this bond. When used, a user can bond to
       just about any kind of spirit, from spirits of other people,
       creatures and races, or they can bond to other types of spirits
       like spirits that control the world's elements or spirits that
       can be summoned from the spirit realm. When used, this creates a
       bond where the two spirits are able to share their power, and
       empower each other as long as they stay bonded together. The
       bond can only be broken by an experienced spirit user, and while
       bonded, the lives of the two are tied together, so if one dies
       then so does the other. This is another technique Kitsune can
       use, but choses not to, mostly because he hasn't met any spirits
       that really he needs to bond with, as the only one he ever
       considered it with bonded with someone else instead.
       - Soul Energy Steal: This is a forbidden art among spirit energy
       users. Not just because soul eaters are seen as dangerous, but
       because this ability has a price for using it. This ability lets
       a user absorb the spirits of others after they've been weakened
       or killed, and lets the user absorb spirit energy from others,
       and taking souls if enough essence is absorped from others. This
       is a forbidden art because of the price it takes, as once
       someone starts absorbing the spirit energy of others using this
       technique, they must continue to feed on spirit energy or they
       will age rapidly until they die. However, when used, this lets
       someone absorb not just the spirits and energy of those they
       take from, but allows the user to gain the other person's
       abilities to include fighting styles, special abilities and
       supernatural abilities. This also restores one's youth if they
       are not in their prime, making this more useful to older users
       who want to use this to absorb the power of others to restore
       their youth. However, they must keep doing so constantly, or
       they will age rapidly until they die. Absorbing some spirit
       energy can grant someone temporary enhancement using one's
       powers and abilities, but permanent gain of the abilities
       requires the full taking of the soul. This is an effective soul
       eater power that lets one gain the abilities more easily, but
       the price can take a toll on others, as once the price takes
       it's effect, this art cannot be undone. Kistune knows how to do
       this, but doesn't do it due him believing the negatives outweigh
       the positives with this ability.
       - Mafukan: This is a technique designed by a spirit user who had
       no outlet for their extra energy, and instead created a
       technique to empower an object and let it absorb extra spirit
       energy from the user passively. This technique is perhaps the
       ultimate spirit user art, in which this art empowers an object
       close to the user to absorb the user's extra spirit energy. Over
       years of storing energy, the object becomes powerful, keeping a
       storage of spirit energy within in order to keep the power
       stored away for emergencies. The item empowered can be anything
       the user wants, but must keep it with them. The main ability of
       this is to store the energy and then be able to release it
       later. When used, this can be used a few ways, such as
       empowering someone or oneself, revitalizing and empowering them
       beyond their typical limits, or using this to even revive
       someone who has died (but this takes years of gathering power
       before this can be used). Some use this as a backup to bring
       themselvs back to life once if they die, or they may use this if
       they are in a desperate situation that they need the extra
       energy. Some even use this to train, using it to weaken one's
       abilities and absorb the extra energy so that they can get
       stronger more quickly, in which they use this to keep their true
       power hidden. However, when used to weaken someone and let them
       grow more quickly, they cannot release their full power until
       the energy of the item is filled again, making this a
       semi-permanent weakening. This technique requires a long time of
       charging before it can be of any use, and until it does, this
       technique is useless. Even experienced users cannot overcome
       this as this requires a lot of energy to even be able to use.
       However, users can speed this up slightly by feeding their item
       more spirit energy, sometimes cutting the time down it requires
       to make this usable. And once used, all of the power is used in
       this, so using it and trying to save some of the energy in it is
       impossible, making this something the user must be sure they
       want to use before doing so. Kitsune has a ring on his finger
       which is his way of using this. The ring has enough energy in it
       that it could bring someone back to life, or bring him back to
       life once if he were to die and want to use it.
       Combat and PI Skills:
       - Rapier/Gun Combat Style: Kitsune's combat style is a
       combination of sword and gun, in which he uses his sword to
       attack, and sometimes mixes in gun shots to attack his opponents
       if they are focused on his sword. This lets Kitsune use his gun
       and sword to keep most opponents guessing, since he can use one
       or the other, and he is able to attack from close to medium
       range with either weapon. His combat style mixes in a rapier
       like style, and a close combat gun-slinging style in which he
       would try to mix physical attacks with shooting at an opponent.
       This style is Kitsune's own unique style, and being a mix of
       rapier styles and gun kata styles. Kitsune is a pretty skilled
       fighter up close with this style, and this tends to be his main
       weapon style since he focuses on using his soul sword and gun to
       fight opponents. When combined with his dark and light skills,
       this style tends to be a very dangerous mix of abilities, and
       opponents fighting Kitsune have to stay on their guard to avoid
       his attacks.
       - Death Wraith Todesgeister Style Master: This is the style of
       basic combat taught to all death wraiths. This style combines
       basic defensive and offensive movement with death wraith shadow
       power, where the death wraiths learn to combine their physical
       combat with their shadows in order to attack opponents. This
       could be as simple as extending a punch using shadows to throw a
       punch at an opponent, or turning a shadow into a blade to use a
       weapon-esque style. This style is very adaptable, depending on
       the death wraith and what they prefer in fights. This is a
       fairly basic style, but allows a bit of customization depending
       on the death wraith and their skill at combat. Masters of this
       style are able to use this for attack and defense using fluid
       motion and depending on the death wraith, can focus on their
       durability, strength, agility, flexibility and/or speed,
       depending on the death wraith's own individual abilities, as
       this can be focused in multiple ways. This style can be used on
       it's own, or it can be used as a weapon style. Since each Death
       Wraith is different, how they use this is typically different.
       - Elite Soul Collector Combat Master: A Death Wraith specially
       trained is a skilled warrior and highly trained assassin. Those
       with elite soul collector combat training can specialize in
       several death wraith and human martial arts, and have an easier
       time learning new combat styles. These Death Wraith are at peak
       performance levels for their kind and train for maximum control
       over powers and physical body, as this training helps focus the
       things that hurt other combat specialists, and most death wraith
       learn to minimize their own body's distractions in battle. This
       allows both males and females to shut down all emotional and
       reproductive systems to allow for peak performance and to keep
       down the chances for getting distracted, allowing them to keep
       their minds focused on fights when they need to. The biggest
       problem with this style is that being too focused can lead to
       being surprised by sneak attacks or by interrupts to fights.
       However, advanced and master level death wraiths are able to use
       this without having that happen, having tuned to a balance
       between focus on the fight and focus on what's around them.
       - Death Wraith Stealth Combat Master (Stealth and Tracking
       Evasion Master): Death wraiths specialize in stealth, and this
       shows in their combat. They are not only able to fight with
       stealth, but they have the ability to avoid tracking of most
       kinds. For the most part, death wraiths are masters of stealth,
       being able to hide from anyone around them, usually through the
       use of shadows, though masters of combat are able to hide
       without using shadows. For the most part, when one tries to
       track down a death wraith, they eliminate most things that would
       normally give them away to trackers, such as causing things like
       blood, hair and skin particles to disappear into the shadows.
       Most death wraiths are able to avoid trackers to a large degree,
       and are able to use their abilities in stealth in ways most
       normally wouldn't. Advanced death wraiths and master level death
       wraiths are able to use this style to hide even in plain sight,
       where they can use the environment to hide themselves from
       opponents. For the most part, the only times a death wraith is
       found is when they want to be, or they are being tracked with a
       supernatural spell.
       - Death Wraith Combat Speed Art: Stealth Step: This style is a
       stepping method focused around stealth, in which it was
       developed similarly to a soul reapers Flashstep, or the hollow
       art of Sonido. This allows death wraiths to use advanced speed
       arts, in which they are able to use high speed stepping methods
       to get ahead of most opponents. There are a number of arts that
       come with this stepping method. The biggest one is the shadow
       replacement, where a death wraith can leave behind shadows, in
       the form of the user in order to fool opponents, allowing them a
       stealthy attack by using this. This is similar to a replacement
       technique where people replace themselves with things like
       clones or ninja art using logs. The art makes no sound upon use,
       as it's designed for stealth over anything else. Upon using
       this, a death wraith makes no sound at all, and foot steps
       cannot be heard, making a death wraith's stealth-based combat
       even more dangerous. While this art is speedy and can be used
       for stealth, it still works similar to other stepping methods,
       where things like disappearing from view can only be done while
       in motion.
       - Spirit Combat Styles: In addition to other fighting styles
       individual users learn, there are also fighting styles that can
       be learned using spirit energy. Among them are fighting styles
       like Pai Zhua, Satsui no Hado, and Soul/Psycho power. Those that
       learn these styles are able to weaponize their soul energy in
       normal combat, not just using it as an amp, but also using it as
       a fighting style of it's own. Depending on the user, some can
       learn certain styles with proper training depending on what the
       user wants to learn, or can find the ability to learn. Fighting
       styles that use spirit energy in physical combat tend to have a
       few things in common. The first is that the soul energy is often
       weaponized in some way to use against opponents in direct
       combat. The second is that those who use this often use emotions
       in order to use this power. The best example is the soul and
       psycho powers, which are two opposite fighting styles using
       sides of the soul. The psycho power sacrifices all good in the
       soul to feed the dark side of the soul, powering itself on
       negative emotions while soul power focuses positive and often
       sacrifies the dark side of the soul to power the good side of
       the soul. Then there are other styles that use certain powers to
       feed others, like the forbidden Shaolin lion style that feeds
       anger to grow the power of the spirit without sacrificing any
       part of the soul. The last thing is that those who use this can
       often fire spirit energy attacks in physical combat, or focus
       their combat into projectile spirit energy attacks that they can
       use in physical combat. For the most part, these styles are all
       individual and have their own weaknesses, with one of the major
       ones being those who can feed on spirit energy, in which makes
       these styles seem like lunch to those that feed on soul energy.
       Kitsune knows how these work, but hasn't bothered learning them.
       - Spirit Combat Acceleration: This is a combat acceleration
       technique that was modeled after soul reaper flashstep or
       arrancar sonido. This method uses spirit energy to speed up the
       body's movements, and uses this to amp the body's ability to
       move so that opponents can move fast enough to keep up with fast
       supernaturals. This combat tactic lets users speed themselves up
       by concentrating the amp of their spirits into their body,
       usually projecting it into the limbs so that the limbs can move
       more efficiently. This technique requires precision movement,
       careful coordination and the ability to process things at higher
       speeds, since this is a dangerous combat maneuver that can
       easily result in someone hurting themselves, like running
       themselves into things if they can't stop process what's going
       on fast enough and can't stop before they hit something. This
       particular style is often used by more experienced fighters used
       to moving fast through combat stepping methods or other speed
       based abilities, since they are used to moving fast. Using this
       is very difficult, but if used properly, the skill can prove
       very useful in combat. Users, however, must be careful when
       combining this with combat style stepping methods, as sometimes
       the combination can be too much speed to handle.
       - Supernatural Hunter Training: Exorcism, Weakness and Trap
       Knowledge: Kitsune is trained in supernatural hunting thanks to
       the supernatural organizations he's worked with, his death
       wraith training, and research he did for his PI work, being
       trained in how to do things like exorcise demons and angels, use
       supernatural trap spells and markings, and knowing as much as he
       can about supernaturals in general. Kitsune is fully trained in
       everything supernatural, from vampires and werewolves to angels
       and demons and even some alternate dimension creatures. Kitsune
       is highly trained in typical tactics, knowing a lot about
       supernaturals from species to sub-species, to even strengths and
       weaknesses of each race and sub race of power creatures. Kitsune
       has trained heavily in this art, and knows how to take advantage
       of weaknesses, but also knowing strengths of certain types of
       opponents that he needs to avoid or find a way around. Though
       Kitsune doesn't know everything about every race type, he has
       studied a lot of different races in his time as a PI, which he
       has had a lot of time to perfect his supernatural hunting
       skills.
       - Tracking and Hunting Expert: Thanks to Kitsune's many years
       hunting supernaturals and teaching magic users how to hunt
       supernaturals, combined with his special training, it left him
       with an expert sense of tracking targets. Kitsune is able to do
       very subtle things, like tell whether a foot print is his target
       or not by things like the shape of the boot and how deep the
       boot-print is, as well as also being able to tell where their
       opponents go thanks to things like people walking on plants, and
       animals that are unusually silent in any one direction. Being an
       advanced tracking expert, he also developed a sense of when
       opponents are near, as well as usually knowing which way his
       opponent is going. And thanks to his enhanced senses, this is
       made more effective as he can use his enhanced senses to track
       things like traces of body heat, traces of someone's presence,
       or even just telling what's around them using enhanced senses.
       - Advanced Private Investigator Skills: Being a PI as his main
       job, Kitsune is highly advanced in certain skills he needs for
       his job. The biggest one being stealth and being able to gather
       information about people he's investigating. This is usually
       pretty easy thanks to his light and dark planes-walking, but he
       has other skills as well that help immensely. When he cannot
       leave supernatural traces, he is an expert in breaking into
       places, such as lockpicking doors and using simple means to get
       almost anywhere he wants to go. Due to his high intelligence and
       specific skillset, Kitsune is very good at breaking into places
       when he needs to, and can do so using human methods so he
       doesn't leave a supernatural trace if he doesn't want to use his
       light or shadow travel. Due to always needing to have new ways
       of doing things, Kitsune is very good with his skill sets as a
       PI, and knows how to handle just about everything, such as
       following and tracking people, gathering information, and even
       hacking computers.
       - Interrogation/Information Gathering Expert: Another thing that
       Kitsune is good at is interrogating people and gathering
       information. Because of this, Kitsune is able to interrogate
       people to get information from them, even often disguising his
       interrogation as a normal talk in order to get people to open
       up. This isn't just used when people are captured, but Kitsune
       will also use this to talk to friends of people he's
       investigating, usually just appearing curious about someone, or
       just trying to get people talking casually enough that they
       don't think about what they say. Kitsune is very good at
       gathering information, not just from objects or papers left
       behind, but Kitsune is very good at getting people to reveal
       information to him. Not only can Kitsune do this casually to
       some people, he also knows how to talk to people who know what
       he's doing, such as making a deal with someone for information
       in exchange for money or something they might want. Kitsune is
       very crafty in how he handles information gathering, and often
       is very good at doing so. Thanks to this, Kitsune tends to do
       very well as a PI, and this is one of his better skills.
       Spirit User Passive Abilities:
       - Spiritual Defense Iron Skin: This particular passive skill was
       based on the arrancar art, hierro, which uses spirit power to
       strengthen the skin to increase defense in battle. This power
       works similar to dragon skin in how it operates, and helps
       dampen attacks so that they do less damage. The degree of this
       depends on the person's spiritual power, and how much energy
       they are able to generate, in which this power is trained and
       concentrated using energy normally wasted when expelled from the
       body. This skill's strength depends on the person, with some
       having stronger ability to use this and some having weaker
       abilities. Abilities like regeneration and other hardened skin
       abilities make this ability weaker, since power is usually
       diverted to other methods, but those with just this power can
       use a stronger form of this than those without things like
       regenerate. Trying to pierce one's defense requires more power,
       and the stronger the technique, the harder it is to pierce
       someone. This acts like a natural defense to those with this
       power, and helps them defend against attacks to a degree. And
       depending on the race, they can gain defense against certain
       techniques, such as death wraiths spirit energy being able to
       also weaken shadow attacks that might be used on them. But just
       as they may gain strengths, they also gain weaknesses, like
       death wraith versions of this skill upping defense against
       shadow abilities, but this technique can be overcome in death
       wraiths far more easily with concentrated light attacks and
       blessed sea salt.
       - Spirit Protection Soul Strengthening: This ability allows one
       to use their spiritual power to protect their souls,
       strengthening their souls against possible opponents that might
       want to try and take their souls. This ability uses spirit
       energy to strengthen their souls hold on the body, and is a
       passive ability that prevents users from letting their souls be
       drawn out of the body through opponents like soul eaters and
       soul energy stealing opponents. Usually, this technique draws
       the spiritual power inward, allowing users to also defend
       themselves from spiritual attacks to a degree, protecting the
       soul from things that attack on spiritual planes.
       - Soul Binding Weapons/Attach Item to Soul: Thanks to certain
       supernatural races, there are two main powers people use for
       their spirits when it comes to weapons. The first is a soul
       bound weapon, where certain races are able to awaken soul bound
       blades depending on the race. The two most well known races that
       use this are soul reapers, death wraiths, and arrancars. Those
       who are able to do this usually gain a weapon specific to their
       race, usually the weapon depends on the invididual and the race,
       with some races having specific uses for their weapons, such as
       arrancars zanpakuto's controlling their released form. The
       second ability of this power is the ability to attach one's
       weapons to their soul, being a power designed so that
       supernaturals can have connections to their weapons that allow
       them to be better fighters, and lets them not only use their
       weapons more effectively, but lets them control and
       summon/desummon their attached weapons at will. This second
       power is usually for those that want to attach other weapons
       that aren't soul-bound weapons to oneself.
       - Postive/Negative Spirit Balance: In order to tune their
       spirit, every person must find their own spiritual balance.
       Almost all beings, with certain exceptions, have both positive
       and negative portions of their soul. In order to use spirit
       energy, one must learn their specific balance of power and then
       balance their positive and negative (assuming they have both).
       Some races can skip this step, like holy vampires, who have one
       pure side, though they still have to become aware of how their
       spirit energy is set up before using it. This makes it where
       every one who learns spirit energy learn to balance their
       positive and negative power, making it difficult for opponents
       to unbalance them, such as someone trying to infect someone's
       dark side of their soul to power it up. This is most evident
       with those with harder to control abilities, as this helps them
       more easily control their abilities, as well as giving them
       experience at using their positive and negative energies. Since
       some races are able to pick and chose which sides of their souls
       they want to use in certain abilities, this power is pretty
       necessary.
       - Spirit Energy Training: Those who want to train in spirit
       energy do not do so in a traditional sense. Those that train in
       spirit energy cannot simply train their physical bodies and call
       it a day, and require specific training. Those who train their
       spirit energy have to not only train physically, but they also
       have to push their spirit energy beyond it's limits, training
       the spirit to generate more power on a consistent basis. When
       training, most have their own ways of doing so. However, while
       things like meditation can help train to some extent, the true
       training comes from using spirit energy and pushing that power
       beyond it's limits. There are many ways to do this, but those
       who train in it have to train harder than most people who use
       typical energy do. This may not be a problem for some who have
       high levels of spirit, but those that do not have to train much
       more harshly, making this a good path of training for those that
       want to become powerful, but is difficult in the beginning for
       those that don't have as much affinity for spiritual abilities.
       Since most people do start small, massive training is often
       necessary to be able to use spirit energy at all, let alone
       grow. Some don't like the sheer amount of work people need to
       put into this training, but some use it for just that purpose,
       as some feel that training the spirit and the body can help them
       grow as warriors.
       - Soul Healing: Those with spiritual energies are able to use
       their spirit energy to heal souls that have been damaged to a
       degree. Those with permanent soul damage or souls that have
       taken heavy damage are usually weakened or they may be affected
       physically by it, but those with spirit energy are able to heal
       that damage depending on their spiritual natures. Some are able
       to do this more easily than others, such as angels and holy
       vampires who specialize in more positive powers. Though races
       like demons and death wraiths who use darker sides of their
       souls may have a harder time doing so. However, they can also
       use their spirit energy to remove corruption and tainting of
       souls and spirits to a degree, with some races being better at
       it than others. Those with this can also heal the body as well,
       making this able to heal just as easily as other healing
       abilities, and having more range to healing souls and spirits.
       - Soul Resonance: Those with spirit energy are able to harmonize
       with other spirits, being able to use this passive technique to
       tune their spirit powers to combine their spirit power with
       another supernatural. For example, those with living weapons or
       spirit bound weapons have to use this to be able to wield their
       weapons. However, those with this technique are able to tune to
       others, combining their powers with each other more easily. This
       can result in special techniques being usable that normally
       wouldn't be able to be used, such as a demon and angel combining
       their spirits to create a unique spirit attack that blends their
       powers together. The powers usable depend on those tuning to
       each other, and the powers of the other person. Some are even
       able to use this with special abilities to transform certain
       abilities as well, such as combining spirit energy summoning
       with an elemental power to change the combined form into an
       enhanced form as a more powerful construct. This is different
       for everyone, and some may have easier times tuning to people
       than others.
       - Astral Projection/Commune with the Dead/Astral Possession:
       Those that are in tune with their spirits are able to project
       their spirits when they desire through astral projection. This
       power lets a spirit user project themselves, mostly so that they
       can interact with the dead and with spirits. Those with this are
       able to go to the Veil where spirits are usually found, or the
       user can attempt to go to the Spirit Realm, which is a realm
       where natural spirits reside, if they are able to percieve the
       spirits. This lets users commune with the dead, and with
       spirits. Of course, the biggest use for this is to interact with
       spirits, but also if one is trying to interact with a dead
       spirit, it is much easier to do so in astral projection than in
       physical form. Those who are in astral projection are also able
       to possess those that are not immune to being controlled, in
       which usually this is best done when someone is asleep. Of
       course, those immune to psychic abilities and other forms of
       mind manipulation won't be affected.
       - Soul Reading: This lets a spirit energy use their tuning to
       the spiritual to read the souls of others, usually allowing them
       to sense the presence of other souls around them. This could be
       as simple as sensing the presence of someone close by, or this
       could include sensing things like ghosts that are not usually
       physically present. This is similar to many supernatural sixth
       senses, except that it lets a spirit user interact with more
       things spiritually than most mortals would be able to. Not only
       can someone sense the spirits of those around them, but they are
       able to tell what presences are around them by the soul and what
       kind of soul they are sensing, since every race has different
       spirits. This skill is also immune to typical abilities to hide
       one's presence, since the user can sense the soul of people,
       which bypasses sensing one's presence. The only way to hide from
       this skill is to suppress the soul's energy, and make it where
       users cannot sense the soul of the person.
       - Inner Spirit/Inner World Sense/Protection: Like soul reapers,
       spirit energy users are able to focus inward in order to go into
       their spirit/mind's inner world. This is similar to how soul
       reapers, arrancars and even the Darkfires use this art, in which
       they are able to use this to control their minds completely.
       This includes being able to do things like being able to
       suppress certain parts of the mind, as well as being able to
       emit certain emotions despite not actually feeling them. Most
       who use this art are able to fool even psychic people, in which
       they can control what psychic people are able to read, and can
       even use that to their advantage. Most who use this art are
       immune to psychic abilities that influence the mind if they are
       skilled enough with this art, though the main use of this is for
       those that want to use the attach item to self power or unlock a
       soul bound weapon, in which this training is necessary in order
       to connect to one's own soul to do so. In order to use this, one
       has to keep focus of their own mind, and make sure they don't
       lose control lest they be overwhelmed and have difficulty
       regaining control.
       Death Wraith Passive Abilities:
       - Death Wraith Immunity to Shadow/Death Effects: Due to the
       death wraiths being born and created in darkness, they are
       completely immune to most darkness abilities and the effects of
       death energy. For the most part, death wraiths are able to
       resist almost any form of darkness as well as death energy
       effects like rotting or acidic shadows. While they can still be
       hurt by certain attacks, or they can be hurt by impact or slash
       damage of attacks, they are completely immune to any specific
       extra effects of darkness or death energy. There are a few
       exceptions to this, such as corrupted light and corrupted
       darkness, which can still be used to damage death wraiths, or
       certain death abilities like a death scythe or a grim reapers
       mix of life and death energies may still be able to hurt a death
       wraith depending on their skill. Of course, with this immunity,
       due to them being creatures of death and shadows, death wraiths
       are more vulnerable to light and the effects of life energies,
       since these forces can counter their natures. Kitsune is not
       vulnerable to light, but is still vulnerable to life and
       corrupted darkness and light.
       - Death Wraith Mutation Immunity to Light Effects: While Kitsune
       is still vulnerable to life effects, he is not vulnerable to
       light effects, since his abilities of light make him immune to
       this. For the most part, Kitsune is immune to almost any effect
       of light on most death wraiths, such as light being able to
       weaken most death wraiths and pierce through them more easily.
       Because Kitsune has the power of light infused into him just as
       shadows are, he is not affected by light effects such as light
       burning him like it would some death wraiths, or certain other
       effects of light. While Kitsune can still be hurt by light
       attacks, such as being cut by light attacks or pierced by light
       beams, Kitsune doesn't take any extra damage from light that
       most death wraiths would take. With Kitsune's immunity to both
       light and dark though, his weakness is more in the realm of life
       energy rather than light, since life energy still does the same
       damage to him it does to any other death wraith. Even though
       Kitsune does have light abilities, he is still a being of death.
       - Death Wraith Long Lifes: The death wraiths are different from
       mortals, and live far longer than most creatures. Death wraiths
       live over a million years before dying of old age. This is
       mostly thanks to their regenerative powers of shadows and the
       fact they spend most of their lives in the shadow realm. The
       longest living death wraith lived up about 1.5 million years.
       This means that most death wraiths age extremely slowly once
       they hit a certain point of their life cycle, and only once they
       reach about 950 thousand years does the age start to degrade
       their abilities, including their regeneration, in which they
       start aging until they die of old age. For the most part,
       depending on the strength of the regenerative power, some can
       live past a million years, but most usually die somewhere around
       the million year mark due to the fact they lose the ability to
       use a lot of their powers. Until they reach the point where
       their abilities weaken, they typically remain very strong in
       their abilities and are usually in their primes. The reason this
       is hard to predict is partially due to how, even weakened, aging
       death wraith still regenerate, still slowing their aging.
       - Enhanced Intelligence/Learning and Strategist: Kitsune is a
       very intelligent person, having a much higher level intelligence
       than many other supernaturals. Kitsune has always been very
       smart, with his brain operating much faster and granting him
       highly enhanced intelligence as a result. Not only does this
       increase his reflexes in a fight, but this increases Kitsune's
       ability to strategize and learn. Kitsune is smart enough that he
       can keep up with battling highly intelligent races, and can
       learn very easily thanks to his enhanced intelligence. For the
       most part, this makes Kitsune someone who is very good at
       thinking through situations, which helps him to come up with
       strategies in battles. Kitsune mostly uses this intelligence to
       keep up with advanced tech, and to come up with better ways to
       do his job as PI. Kitsune is usually reading when he's not
       working, and can learn new information easily. Since Kitsune
       reads a lot, he learns a lot like being able to learn how tech
       works through reading about how it works. Thanks to also having
       a photographic memory, Kitsune can also remember things that
       most people would forget, such as simple things he noticed while
       walking around, or subtle details of certain PI investigations
       he's done over the years he's been a PI.
       - Multilingual and Ancient Language Experts: Just like most
       creatures who have been around since the dawn of time, many of
       the death wraith speak multiple languages. For the most part,
       depending on where they have been, they have learned a lot about
       human culture, most of them speak a number of languages, and are
       experts on ancient laguages, with most being able to speak and
       write in almost any ancient language of humans. Many are very
       fluent in Enochian, biblical Hebrew, normal hebrew, and even
       most major languages spoken in major countries. They can even
       speak mostly forgotten languages that most don't even know, like
       the original languages of the world that have been lost to time.
       For the most part, most death wraith are very good at learning
       new languages and at speaking and writing in multiple languages
       that have been used over the years. Most usually stick to one
       major language, but most can switch languages for almost any
       occassion. Kitsune speaks many languages, usually sticking to
       English, Spanish, French, or Romanian as his main languages
       depending on where he is.
       - Death Wraith Enhanced Senses: Much like most supernaturals and
       enhanced humans, each death wraith has enhanced senses as well.
       For the most part, this depends solely on the death wraith, as
       some senses enhance more than others depending not only on the
       death wraith, but the specific abilities of the death wraith,
       with some death wraith having different senses depending on
       certain abilities. As there are many types of abilities that
       affect senses, many death wraiths can end up being different.
       Most usually gain simple enhanced senses, with all their senses
       going up slightly. Usually this can be good or bad, as some
       enhanced senses can be a hinderance as much as a help, like
       death wraith using wolf power increasing their sense of smell
       also being a weakness if used against them properly. This is
       dependant on the death wraith, as every death wraith has a
       different balance of senses. And just like death wraiths,
       Kitsune also has enhanced senses. His sense are all fairly
       slightly enhanced with one not being much higher over another.
       As such, he has enhanced sight, smell, touch and hearing, but
       not enough that he can be overwhelmed as easily as some other
       races with enhanced senses.
       - Death Wraith Dark Vision: All death wraith are able to see in
       all levels of light, being able to perceive what's around them,
       even if it's total darkness. This means that all death wraiths
       have the ability to not be affected by darkness restricting
       attacks that attempt to blind opponents since they can see even
       in total darkness no matter how powerful the darkness. For the
       most part, this is a pretty simple power that comes from the
       death wraith's birth in the shadows, in which they are essences
       of pure darkness. They specialize in darkness, so they have to
       be able to see in the dark in order to navigate places like the
       shadow realm. However, things like flashbangs can blind them,
       and things like smoke or other vision obstructions can still
       blind them. This mostly only applies to darkness and darkness
       based attacks that try to blind death wraiths.
       - Death Wraith Presence Sense: Much like other supernaturals,
       death wraiths can sense the presence of other beings, and
       sensing who and what they are. This can sense not only one's
       presence, but their levels of energy and how tough they are,
       allowing the user to gauge how they stand against them, as well
       as often being able to tell what they are by their presence if
       the user recognizes what kind of presence it is. However, this
       can be deceived by skilled opponents, sometimes not appearing
       correctly if the user can't sense the opponent's full power or
       use powers that fool this sense. There are also skills that hide
       one's presence so those with this sense can't sense them, or
       some opponents can suppress their presence so they're not fully
       able to be sensed. Most death wraiths are able to use this to
       sense not just what's around them, but they are able to use this
       ability to sense what's going on around the world, and when big
       presences appear, like Lucifer, or higher level angels and
       demons.
       - Death Wraith Emotional Manipulation: Death wraiths are all
       about controlling their emotions. And in doing so, they suppress
       their emotions, with most using cold logic instead of emotions.
       For the most part, death wraiths can feel emotions, but are
       taught to suppress them in order to not only help with
       controlling themselves, but also to help their stealth since not
       having emotions can hide them from certain opponents that can
       sense emotions. This emotional manipulation is the main method
       death wraiths use to keep themselves from having to worry about
       their emotions, and use this to always keep their emotions
       suppressed, as they see emotions as "corruptive". The only time
       that death wraiths are allowed emotions are typically under
       special circumstances, such as chosing mates, which even then
       many death wraith choose mates through logic rather than
       emotion. This can be a danger to death wraiths though, since
       they not only don't deal with emotions, they rarely allow powers
       that rely on emotions due to the death wraiths viewing emotions
       as corruptive.
       - Death Wraith Self-Control Manipulation: Like soul reapers,
       death wraiths have to train inward in order to unlock their soul
       swords, and protect their minds from things like corruptive
       energies. In doing so, they are able to go into their
       mind/spirit's world, which is unique for each person. Similar to
       the disciplined mind art of the Darkfires, death wraiths are
       able to learn how to control their inner world, using it for
       controlling things like emotions and helping them avoid certain
       psychic abilities. Death wraiths use this to help keep their
       emotions suppressed when they need to as a second stage of their
       emotional suppression, so that they are able to keep themselves
       from letting too many emotions cloud them. Since many death
       wraiths consider certain emotions of humans to be a hinderance
       rather than a strength, they aim to suppress emotions that might
       hinder a death wraith's abilities. Most death wraiths learn this
       as a means to do so, though this also helps against those with
       psychic abilities.
       - Enhanced Death Wraith and Combat Training Physical Stats:
       Kitsune is a very skilled and trained fighter, with him being
       very good at taking on opponents. While Kitsune is unique for
       his dark and light skill, he is also highly skilled in close
       combat, and his physical training has left him at the peak of
       his death wraith ability. He is a combat trained death wraith,
       and knows how to fight very well, with him having a pretty good
       talent for combat. Kitsune is a very skilled and balanced
       fighter, not having one stat over another. If any stat was
       stronger, it would be his stamina and durability, thanks to his
       regeneration. However, his other stats are trained more equally.
       Thanks to his training, he is strong enough to bend metal, such
       as pulling a locked door and breaking the lock. He is also fast
       enough to disappear from view when he is in motion, since he is
       trained to keep up with fast and strong supernaturals. Kitsune
       is a pretty good fighter, despite not really being one to take
       things too seriously most of the time.
       Transformations:
       - Enhanced Death Wraith Form: Like most death wraiths, Kitsune
       has his normal death wraith form, which he can turn into at any
       time. The death wraiths natural forms are more of a shadow with
       shadows emitted almost like smoke, where their eyes often glow
       with dark energy and unique patterns lighting up on their hands.
       In their natural forms, death wraiths are typically more
       powerful, and have highly enhanced death wraith abilities. In
       this form, they can not only control shadows and summon shadows
       from the shadow realm, but they are also able to take shadow
       form, going intangible in the shadows when they need to.
       Depending on the death wraith, they may also have other enhanced
       abilities in their death wraith form, with some having special
       abilities that may change the look of the death wraith form
       slightly. This could be as simple as demon power turning the
       blue glow on their hands red, or powers like hollow power making
       them more of a shadow creature type hollow. For Kitsune, he can
       enhance this power with twilight power, turning himself more of
       a mix of light and dark, or enhance himself untill he becomes a
       being more of light. For Kitsune, he is able to adapt this form
       based on whether he's using dark, light or twilight, in which
       his form will reflect whatever power he's focused in. This makes
       him slightly harder to attack than some death wraiths since
       Kitsune can shift from darkness to light or to twilight.
       Weaknesses:
       - Blessed sea salt is one of the death wraiths' two biggest
       weaknesses. All death wraiths are highly allergic blessed sea
       salt, which can cause a wide variety of problems like
       anaphylaxis/anaphylactic shock, breathing problems, or even lead
       to death. The only real way to overcome the effects of blessed
       sea salt is for a death wraith to retreat into the shadows, and
       let the regenerative properties shadows have on them overcome
       it, which can be a painful process. Weapons using blessed sea
       salt can do extra damage as well, and weapons coated in this can
       possibly cause blood infections if the blessed sea salt manages
       to get into their blood stream. Smoke grenades using blessed sea
       salt are also very effective if the opponent can get a death
       wraith to breathe in the smoke, as well as mixing it into water
       can make a special salt water mix that works on death wraiths
       like holy water works on demons and unholy creatures. Like all
       death wraiths, this still affects Kitsune as much as it would
       any other death wraith.
       - Iron and ghost-fighting weapons are the second of the death
       wraith's biggest weaknesses. Iron is harder to put into an
       inhalable or liquid, but weapons using iron do extra damage to
       death wraiths. While not as deadly as blessed sea salt, iron is
       a natural counter to ghost abilities, and does damage to death
       wraiths as a result. Any weapon designed to fight ghosts or
       ghost-like creatures does extra damage to them. This includes
       other soul swords, the zanpakuto's of soul reapers and the death
       scythes of the grim reapers. However, iron weapons, specifically
       being a counter to ghosts work well on death wraiths, with
       weapons using iron having a much more damaging effect on death
       wraiths than many other ghost fighting weapons. For the most
       part, any weapon, iron or not, that is designed to fight beings
       of death or ghosts in general will work on a death wraith.
       - Light and life energies are also a good counter to a death
       wraith, since they are creatures of darkness and death. Thanks
       to their natures, life energy is a natural counter to the death
       aspects of their power, while light works better to counter
       their darkness. Items like flashbangs or concentrated light can
       overpower many forms of darkness or shadows, with death wraiths
       taking more damage if they are hit by concentrated light
       attacks, and their shadows can be dispelled and negated
       temporarily thanks to things like flashbangs. Life energies can
       do more damage to them as well, due to their death aspects,
       which makes life energy a good way to damage them. Weapons using
       life and/or light do more damage, and can more easily cut or
       pierce a death wraith's body. While light doesn't do extra
       damage to Kitsune, life energy does still do more damage.
       Corrupted light and darkness, as well as twilight and other
       light/dark combinations, also work well against those with the
       power of darkness like Kitsune. For Kitsune, these skills even
       work against his light abilities.
       - All death wraith elementals are counterable by other
       elementals. They use elementals differently, but this doesn't
       mean that their elements can't be countered like normal. For
       example, the best method to counter plasma would be liquid
       manipulation, or gas manipulation being able to counter liquid
       manipulation. Every form of matter can counter another in some
       form if the user is creative enough, and certain elements can be
       used to counter certain parts of a death wraith elemental power,
       such as ice being used to counter the flame part or lightning
       part of plasma use, or wind powers being used to counter solid
       matter manipulation since solid matter is mostly earth
       manipulation in some form. For the most part, each element is
       counterable by almost any other element if the person countering
       is smart and creative enough.
       - Spirit energy users still have race weaknesses of whatever
       they are. If one is something like an angel or demon, they will
       still have typical angel or demon weaknesses. Most spirit users
       can be killed just like whatever race they are, and unless
       stated otherwise, most races can be killed if their heart or
       brain are destroyed. Each race has it's own strengths, yet has
       it's own weaknesses. Spirit users are no different. Typically,
       soul healing can heal injuries of the users, but this is not a
       passive regeneration, meaning that one has to concentrate in
       order to use it. Of course, spirit energy users still take
       damage from attacks just like any other creatures.
       - Spirit energy users have a harder time training spirit energy
       than most other energy users. This is due to the fact that they
       have to push their spirits to the limit, which usually means
       pushing far beyond the body's own physical limits. As such, this
       training may add more strength, but it is much harder to keep up
       with than most other energies. Spirit users are able to grow
       just like typical fighters and get stronger as time goes on, but
       their training is still very hard on them. Those who are just
       starting out, or don't have as much experience tend to not be
       able to draw on as much power unless they have a naturally
       strong spirit aura, while elders tend to be able to have access
       to stronger and more abundant spirit energy, but often times, by
       the times they reach this stage, they are often old and their
       bodies don't always keep up with their spirits.
       - Spirit energy users might take spiritual damage instead of
       physical damage if they overstrain their spirit. For the most
       part, spirits are much more durable than bodies are due to the
       soul being eternal (under most circumstances), but that doesn't
       mean the spirit is invincible. Those who overstrain their spirit
       too much may do irrepairable damage to their spirit, damaging
       their ability to use spirit energy. And if a user has their
       spirit energy turned back on them, it is possible that one can
       do spirit energy damage rather than physical damage. This means
       that control is typically required for most spirit users, as if
       they continue to draw power even after not having any, they can
       do damage to themselves, a mistake some newer spirit energy
       users tend to fall into as they think they can push their spirit
       further than they think. This also means that it is important to
       know the limits of one's own spirit and not push too far beyond
       it.
       - Just like some other energies, drawing too much could risk
       killing the user. It's bad enough that trying to draw too much
       spirit energy can damage a user's spirit, but if one still
       continues to push beyond that point that they take spiritual
       damage, they can actually kill themselves if they take the
       energy that binds their soul to their bodies, in which they can
       accidently permanently separate their souls from their bodies,
       which can result in either death, or the soul being unable to
       return to the body and the body running around without a soul,
       which is often never a good thing. This usually requires pushing
       far beyond one's limits, something most people would be aware of
       by this point if they are out of energy, but this typically is
       similar to when other energy users start drawing on their vital
       life force, in which they shorten their lives or even die if
       their life forces are reduced to absolute zero.
       - All spirit energy is generated by a certain part of the soul,
       known as the soul chain. This is a part of the soul that
       generates spiritual energy, and interacts with the body. If
       enough damage is done to this part of the soul, the user will
       not be able to generate soul energy temporarily or permanently
       depending on how bad the damage is done. This means that this
       part of the soul is something that every spirit user must
       protect with their lives or they could risk being made to lose
       their power completely. To destroy the soul chain permanently is
       difficult, but with enough power and energy, it can be done.
       This means that this is typically the greatest weakness in most
       spirit users, and they must make sure that opponents do not do
       too much damage to this part of the soul lest they lose their
       ability to generate spirit energy. If permanently severed, there
       is typically no recovery, with the only known cases of spirit
       energy recovery being one having hidden spirit power that they
       have yet to unlock in which unlocking can restore the spirit
       chain, however no amount of soul healing or spirit fixing up can
       heal the spirit chain once it is permanently severed. Typically
       almost all races have only one spirit chain, and it is almost
       unheard of for anyone to have two and impossible to have more
       than two.
       - Just like all energy users, spirit energy can only be used if
       there is spirit energy to draw from. Once a user runs out, their
       spirit energy abilities will not be usable. And as stated,
       trying to use them after running out of spirit energy can be
       very distrastrous. Typically, spirit energy is counterable like
       other energies, with other energies like chi and mana being able
       to counter like normal. Of course, as one might expect, aura
       breaker weapons are also able to dispel spirit energy like any
       other energy, making aura breaker weapons another useful counter
       against spirit users.
       - Unlike other energy types, spirit energy users are limited to
       how much power they can output by the size of their body.
       Smaller opponents are not able to put out more spirit energy at
       once than someone who is much larger, for better or worse. While
       this doesn't make those with bigger bodies tougher, it does mean
       that those with smaller bodies tend to not being able put out as
       much energy quite as quickly as they can. This also means that
       larger bodies are also able to generate more spirit energy than
       those of smaller statures. This means that larger creatures like
       dragons, and even orcs are able to generate much more than most
       creatures. Of course, there are exceptions to this rule, as
       there are strong people of smaller statures with highly enhanced
       auras. The question usually becomes a question of if the smaller
       people can fight smarter to take out the larger people.
       Personality: Kitsune tends to be a very calm and collected
       person. He seems prideful, and doesn't seem to take much very
       seriously, but is the type of person that is always thinking and
       calculating. He is someone who usually follows the rules, but
       sometimes will bend the rules if it suits him. For the most
       part, he's not a very welcome person in a lot of circles due to
       his PI job, and the fact that he's investigated a lot of the
       people he's hung out with. In battle, Kitsune is a schemer, and
       will often strategize his way through battles, using his
       intelligence to overcome obstacles as well as using his unique
       abilities. His abilities of both light and dark are a source of
       pride for him, as he's proud to be a rare breed of death wraith.
       Bio: In Kitsune's universe, Kitsune was a death wraith who
       worked as second in command of Drakath's soul collection team,
       similar to other universes. However, in this universe, it wasn't
       Drakath who rebelled against the Death Wraith order. After
       Kierran Black's father was cast out for preaching that the death
       wraiths needed to evolve to survive, Kierran and Anna started to
       hate the death wraiths for turning against Kierran's father, who
       was well respected by Kierran and Anna. However, after Anna and
       Kierran were ambushed and Anna's unique mutation of primordial
       power and power creation abilities awakened, there was talk of
       her being executed or exiled. This led to even more anger from
       Kierran and Anna who were not wanting to wait to see something
       bad happen to Anna simply because she had unique abilities.
       Instead of letting Anna go to trial, Kierran and Anna decided on
       another course of action, where Kierran and Anna rebelled
       against the death wraiths. During the course of this, they
       gained support from some of the Seiji and werewolves who
       supported their cause, and Kierran and Anna used their rebellion
       to attempt to evolve the death wraiths, and almost succeeded in
       taking over the Death Wraith order before Kierran's and Anna's
       team fought against Drakath and Kitsune's team, in a massive
       battle. Kitsune and Anna fight each other, both being mutated
       death wraiths with unique abilities, while Drakath and Kierran
       fought each other while they had similar views of the death
       wraiths needing to evolve. However, after seeing how Kierran was
       killing people to protect Anna from prosecution from the death
       wraiths, Drakath hoped to seek a peaceful solution rather than
       rebel like in other universes.
       During the fight, Kitsune barely managed to beat Anna, while
       Drakath was killed by Kierran. After Drakath died, Kitsune was
       lucky to be saved by allies he had made in the living world, and
       was taken to the living world. Kierran's revolution eventually
       ended with him and Anna taking over the Death Wraith order.
       Thanks to a werewolf king named Constantin who allied with
       Kitsune and Drakath, Kitsune tried to form a counter resistance
       to take out Kierran and Anna who had used the death wraiths to
       hunt down Kitsune, who was the new leader of his team after
       Drakath's death. Kitsune fought Kierran and Anna in a brutal war
       for years before Kitsune and Constantin finally managed to
       overcome Kierran and Anna and free the death wraiths from them.
       During the trial though, things went wrong when Alathen Kazara
       broke Kierran and Anna from prison, with Anna's soul having been
       placed in a demon armor as punishment for her hand in Kierran's
       rebellion. Kierran, having had his soul removed to be placed in
       a prisoned demon armor, had his soul placed in Alathen's
       brother, Aeron Kazara's body after Aeron had been killed during
       Kierran's rebellion. Aeron's body was brought back using Seiji
       dark magic, and used as a vessel for Kierran as he tried to use
       his allies in the Seiji and werewolf orders to try and take over
       again. It took a long time, but Kitsune managed to finally beat
       Kierran and Anna again in a war that took place in the human
       world where Kitsune's group fought against Kierran and Anna
       after Kierran was not allowed to return to the Death Wraith
       order. Eventually though, Kierran and Anna were finally killed
       by Kitsune and his allies, and their souls were taken by
       Toranoraos directly so they wouldn't be a problem any longer.
       During this time afterward, Kitsune was seen as dangerous due to
       being a rare mutation that could use light, so afterward he
       chose exile in order to ease the death wraiths once they decided
       to rebuild after Kierran and Anna were finally killed. Despite
       the fact that Toranoraos wanted him to lead the death wraiths,
       Kitsune chose to leave since he didn't want to be a leader that
       wouldn't be supported due to him being a rare mutation of death
       wraith. However, during a mission with the Crow Mercenaries
       during his time in exile, Kitsune met the Exiles universe
       Kierran, and the two almost killed each other before they
       realized that their histories were different. Once they realized
       they were allies, Kitsune helped the group chase Laughing Coffin
       members out of the universe, but not before the group killed
       Kitsune's friends allied with Constantin, including killing
       Constantin.
       Kitsune decided to leave with Kierran for the Exiles universe,
       deciding to rebuild after he went to the Exiles universe. In an
       effort to live a life away from being considered a threat by the
       death wraiths, Kitsune started a PI organizations called Shadow
       Realm Investigations in the Exiles universe. Ever since, he's
       had pretty good relations with the Crow Mercenaries, and became
       good friends with the Crow Mercenaries version of Kierran Black,
       as well as sometimes working with the Exiles and even some other
       groups like the Sabbat when situations require it. Kitsune
       continues to do his own think, being a pretty neutral person in
       the battles going on and mostly became a PI as a way to pass the
       time and keep himself busy.
