30XX WIP: Kierran Darkshade

---------------------------------------------------------
"No one escapes the Reaper for long." - Kierran Darkshade, known
as the Reaper
"My black mana consumes the darkness and the light."
"The Phantom Blade style. You'll never see your death coming." -
Kierran drawing his sword.
"None of the other teams would take you, would they?" - Kierran
when he recruited Noryn Dusk
"The death wraith council saw my power and realized I was too
much for them to control."
"Everything has a frequency. Identify and interrupt it, and you
can counter anything."
"You were deceived if they told you that you can beat me." -
Kierran to a death wraith assassin sent to kill him.
"If you ever saw a death wraith coming, rest assured that it was
not me. Because I know how to kill you without ever being
detected."
"I am a death wraith... Abandoned by his family as a baby and
the death wraiths forced me onto the Darkshade family. But they
never complained and raised me as their own. And my goal was to
bring honor to their name so that they would no longer be seen
as a lesser born family. But I failed. Now I am an exile because
the death wraith council wanted to sweep my story under the
rug."
"The death wraith council thought me training to handle both
lost souls and dark spirits would break me. But it made me
stronger than most death wraiths, and I learned how both dark
spirit hunters and the lost soul hunters fight. I fought both
lost souls and dark spirits. My team, small as it was, was the
only team ever produced that was to be both lost soul hunters
and dark spirit hunters. They didn't realize just how adaptable
I was. I trained with Tarich Nightfall to learn to hunt lost
souls, and then I was trained by Drakath Altairre in the ways of
hunting dark spirits."
When Kierran killed a target from a building away with his
Phantom Blade Style.
From the rooftop.
Kierran: Phantom Blade Style: Trident Void Fang. He says as he
releases an invisible triple slash that goes through the window
and cuts down his target without the slashes being visible. From
inside, it just looked like the target fell into pieces and
blood gushed everywhere.
From inside the building, the people panic, not sure what just
happened as the man died.
Kierran: Target eliminated. He says as he vanishes in a burst
of speed while people were still panicking inside.
"You aren't like them, Kierran Darkshade... Where most death
wraiths are blinded by their pride, you see things as they are.
That is your greatest ability."
"His special combat talent is combat adaptability. He learns as
he fights, and counters opponents as he adapts to their combat
style. He is able to alter his style at will to counter others."
- Kitsune Resei when he was doing research on Kierran for
Drakath to see what kind of person he is.
"Kill him. But don't underestimate him. Those that underestimate
him meet the same fate as Drakath Altairre... And he was the
strongest death wraith we'd seen in our order in many years." -
A death wraith council member when Kierran left the death wraith
order.
Name: Kierran Darkshade
Death Wraith Title: The Reaper
Age: Unknown
Species: Death Wraith with Mana User Skills
Gender: Male
Hunter Group/Team: Democratic Republic
Weapons:
- Death Wraith Soul Sword: Song of Death: This is Kierran's
primary weapon, which is his death wraith soul sword. All death
wraiths unlock a soul bound weapon as part of their training and
natures, which is unique to each death wraith, with duplicate
soul bound weapons being almost non-existent. This sword is
perhaps one of the most versatile soul swords among death
wraiths (reflecting Kierran's adaptable nature as a warrior), as
it not only has multiple uses, but also multiple forms. The
first is just a standard sword that is shaped almost like a
tuning fork. The sword is actually two blades that work together
to reverberate sound using the space in between the blades. The
second form is an extendable spear that can extend to spear
opponents up to 20 feet. The last is a chain blade, where the
blade extends and turns into a chain sword which he can swing
around. The last form is the most dangerous, since the two
blades become two chain swords that can hit an enemy multiple
times with one attack. This requires more precision to use, but
isn't a problem with Kierran's immense skill as a death wraith.
As for it's abilities, the sword specializes in sound
manipulation and more specifically frequency manipulation, which
grants Kierran a number of uses for this weapon, and it has a
number of uses in battle against enemies. From abilities using
sound abilities like sensory disruption and using frequencies to
his advantage (usually to interrupt other frequencies), this
sword's abilities, as well as combining its abilities with its
form change abilities, make Kierran's sword quite a useful
weapon. Kierran's ability to use this to manipulate frequencies
is its most dangerous power though, and one he can use with
devastating efficiency against enemies since Kierran can use
frequency interruption for a number of things. And with his
sound manipulation, Kierran is even able to create waves of air
using sound to attack enemies with as well, giving him even more
attack options. This weapon also has the properties of being
able to purify dark spirits, and be used against ghosts and
other spirits like all soul swords do. Defending against this
weapon requires opponents to not only countering it's forms, but
also countering the sound manipulation of the blade. Thankfully,
the sound manipulation is countered just like any other sound
manipulation, and Kierran's soul sword is countered like most
other weapons would be.
Song of Death Soul Sword Abilities:
- Song of Death Soul Sword Skill 1: Frequency Interruption: This
is the major use of his soul sword, and one of it's original
functions beyond just interrupting senses (though Kierran found
other ways to concentrate this power through training). By
tapping the blade and releasing certain frequencies, Kierran is
able to interrupt different frequencies given off by things like
people and energy. Depending on the frequency, he is able to use
his sword to interrupt that frequency, which is designed
specifically to be used in battle. Unlike his first technique,
this one doesn't actually need to be used to hit an opponent, as
this can be released from the blade to interrupt frequencies all
around Kierran. This is the main uses of his sword, and is
designed to specifically interrupt frequencies. When most people
thing about frequencies, they often think either about how
frequencies can shatter certain objects like glass, or they
think about frequency interruption being used to mess up radio
signals. However, Kierran can do so much more than just
interrupt sound frequencies, and can actually interrupt any
frequency if he can replicate it. This does no real damage
unless Kierran vibrates his sword at a frequency that hurts
mortals to process (but he cannot do this becuase he would also
be affected by it and cause damage to himself). When used,
Kierran can do things like interrupt the frequencies of
supernatural energies, such as he has used this to interrupt the
frequencies elemental users use to control their elemental
powers, which causes the energy to be unable to be controlled as
long as the frequency is interrupted. This can even be used to
prevent certain powers from being used, if Kierran can identify
the frequency. And once Kierran has the frequencies of someone's
power, or even the frequencies their bodies operate at, he can
also tune his sword to more easily cut through objects, energy
and people. By tuning to their frequencies, he is able to more
easily cut through almost anything. This can be used to
interrupt abilities, and even telepathic connections as almost
everything operates one some form of frequency. The only
downside is that sometimes finding a frequency of certain
abilities may take time, and Kierran has to adapt to the
frequencies others use in order to use this power effectively.
And sometimes, Kierran can interrupt his own frequencies if an
enemy operates on a similar frequency to himself (such as trying
to counter the darkness of other death wraiths will also counter
his own darkness abilities since they operate on a similar
frequency).
- Song of Death Soul Sword Skill 2: Sensory Disruption: This is
the second use of his soul sword, in which he can interrupt
people's equalibrium using sound manipulation and interrupt
one's senses. This interrupts opponent's senses when they are
struck with it, or make physical contact with the blade while
it's main power is active. This power uses reverberating sound
waves to disorient opponents, as it takes advantage of how sound
affects the senses, and upon contact, the sound reverberates
through the body of an opponent, causing diorientation (or in
worse cases possible internal damage). This technique is one of
Kierran's main techniques using this sword, and is the sword's
intended use as the sword is designed to be a sensory disruption
weapon that works not only on physical creatures, but also works
on ghosts and souls as well due to them having senses that can
be disrupted (though dark spirits usually might be a little more
difficult to predict if they will be affected or not depending
on the dark spirit). This uses vibrating waves, and can be fired
in attack waves using the vibrating air waves in a shockwave
style attack in addition to using the sword's physical attacks.
The shockwaves work much like the sword, where on impact the
sound reverberates through the body and causes disorientation.
This ability of the blade is designed to be useful against
opponents who are fast and usually too mobile, as it's designed
to stop and stun opponents once they're hit by the sword or an
attack wave of the sword. This sword specializes in also being
able to affect people with immunity to wind and sound powers, as
this is generated from the spirit of the sword instead of being
normal sound waves like people think. If one wants to counter
it, it can be countered like normal sound manipulation (Such as
using counter sounds to cancel out the sound), or one can also
avoid contact with the blade or shockwaves.
- Song of Death Soul Sword Skill 3: Wave Blast: This is a skill
that uses his sword to generate waves that he can fire at
opponents. With his sword concentrating vibrating waves, he can
use this a variety of waves, from firing slashing waves, to
concentrating air blasts and other concussive wave attacks. This
is similar to shockwave style skills, except that this uses the
air waves generated by the sword that generate sensory
disruption. By focusing sound into his slashing waves, this
allows him to hit opponents with projectile sound attacks that
can be used just like his blade's normal attacks. This can be
used in similar methods to wind manipulation, in which Kierran
can either choose to fire concussive blasts, or he can fire
slashing shockwaves, or even manipulate certain gases that can
be affected by sound. One such example is that he can use sound
to affect static or explosive molecules in the air depending on
the frequency of the sound he uses, such as when he is able to
use hydrogen in the air to create explosive attacks at certain
frequences to ignite the air when the sound concentrates it into
a large enough gathering of gas to be able to create the
explosion he wants. This skill is more focused on firing
projectiles using the waves, and designed to use this in special
attacks that can be used to affect enemies. Using this, Kierran
can also use a 360 massive shockwave, blasting anyone close to
him back if he focuses the sound properly. His larger shockwave
is designed to do concussive/knockback damage. The wave is
dodgable if one is far enough away, and all of the projectiles
are dodgable or blockable with certain skills and shields. When
trying to dodge the normal shockwaves and attacks, one can still
dodge them if one is able, or they can use things to block the
attack as long as they take into account the sound waves. For
example, metal reverberates sound and a metal item wouldn't be
great at deflecting the sound wave, but objects that don't allow
sound to easily pass through it might work better to block this
skill.
- Song of Death Soul Sword Skill 4: Wave Lightning: Another way
Kierran can use his vibrating waves his sword produces is to
concentrate it into lightning by allowing him to focus the sound
waves into a static form by using the manipulation of the air
around him to affect static electricity. This creates a special
lightning type that uses vibrating waves to generate static in
the air around him, and concentrated through his sword. This
gives him the ability to use lightning through the sword (and
can be amplified using his plasma manipulation to create
stronger lightning), amped by air waves to attack opponents,
granting his sword a lightning element in addition to the
vibrating air waves that he can use to attack enemies. This
lightning can be focused through his sword to damage opponents,
and can be fired as a wave from his sword as well. By utilizing
this ability, Kierran is able to use the lightning of this just
like normal lightning users, except that his lightning generates
frequences of sound that can be used to hurt opponents and
disorient them. Or if Kierran wants to, he can create thunder
when using lightning to attempt to create loud enough sounds to
hurt his opponents and damage their hearing. Thanks to his death
wraith elementals, he can use this far more effectively,
generating this without needing to use his own power, and the
lightning can even be used to generate sound waves that affect
opponents. However, the lightning can be used for piercing as
well, in which the wave lightning can be concentrated to smaller
lightning bolts for more piercing and concentrated damage. In
terams of weaknesses, this power has the same weaknesses as
lightning, like in order to be affected, the opponent must be
hit by the lightning. Those immune to lightning will be immune
to the lightning part of this ability, but may still be affected
by the sword's ability to interrupt one's senses. Opponents can
also still counter the lightning skills of this sword with
things like water (which works best due to its ability to dampen
sound as well) and ice (or any other counter element to
lightning and sound).
- Song of Death Soul Sword Skill 5: Explosive Sound Wave: This
is a variation of his normal shockwave ability, but instead of
manipulating just air and waves, Kierran is able to manipulate
shockwaves that affect and control the air. When done properly,
Kierran separates hydrogen and oxygen in the air, using sound
frequences to ignite the oxygen and hydrogen in the air using
specific frequences to vibrate the molecules until they become
unstable and explode. In essence, this creates explosions when
Kierran fires his blasts at enemies that can be used to attack
enemies. By creating explosive waves, Kierran is able to fire
waves that can be manipulated with sound and ignited at will.
Because hydrogen conducts sound more easily than normal air,
Kierran's sound techniques move far faster than normal attacks
thanks to the speed of sound being faster for hydrogen than
normal air. And thanks to being able to fire these attacks, the
explosions can also be used to release waves of sound that
disorient anyone nearby the explosion if they don't have
resistance to sound manipulation. When used, this skill is very
useful not just for attacking opponents, but can also be used to
attack groups as well. This skill is a useful attack wave skill,
as it can be changed and amplified based on what Kierran wants
to do. For example, he could focus more hydrogen to create
larger explosions, or he could focus more oxygen to create a
more explosive attack. When hit with this, not only are the
sound and explosion damaging, but opponents will suffer
concussive damage from the blasts due to the explosions
releasing concussive force. For opponents wanting to dodge this
skill, one can still avoid it like normal explosions if they see
it coming, and they can counter the sound just like normal sound
techniques as well. Usually, the larger and stronger the
explosion, the more concentration from Kierran the attack will
take, since concentrating stronger attacks means controlling
more oxygen and hydrogen.
- Song of Death Soul Sword Skill 6: Sword Cut Amplification:
This is a fairly basic skill, where the waves generated by the
sword are focused into the sword itself, amping it's cutting
power immensely. This was designed for opponents who counter the
normal sound disorientation, or are immune to sound style
attacks. Instead of focusing his sound into attacks, Kierran
will focus the sound into his blade, using the same properties
as air cutting waves to sharpen his attacks to the point that he
is able to even cut through metal with this skill. This ability
is designed to just be used to amp his sword's cutting power,
and has a few uses. The main thing is just using it so he can
still make use of his sword's abilities if fighting someone not
affected by sensory disruption, where he can still hurt enemies
if even if they are immune to the effects of the sound. Instead
of the sound being used to try and affect others, the sound is
instead focused on the blade (so those immune to sound can still
be hurt by the sword's attacks. When Kierran needs to fight
stronger enemies, this can also be used to more easily cut
through opponents with stronger bodies or with shields/armor,
making this useful against stronger opponents who have stronger
defenses. This skill is very useful when just using it to fight
up close, and can also be focused into Kierran to amp his
physical attacks as well. Thanks to the simplicity of this
skill, it is very easy to use, and doesn't require much
concentration at all to use (though generating stronger attacks
may require concentration if Kierran tries to concentrate the
sound further). This really only makes Kierran able to more
easily pierce harder substances, and be used to more easily
damage stronger enemies, so it's still a skill that is physical
in nature rather than supernatural. As such, opponents can still
dodge or block this attack as long as they account for the power
of the technique, but since this is a defense piercing
technique, it is better to dodge this attack than try to block
it since this can cut through metal. Users can also counter with
other attack or defense amplifying energy, such as using energy
defense to block the attacks made with this skill.
