Multidimensional RP Profile: Itto Arataki
By: Coolcat207 Date: January 25, 2022, 12:01 am
---------------------------------------------------------
"I'm the head honcho of the Arataki Gang, and everyone knows my
name...s. Names, I have many. Anyway, these are some of the ones
I usually go by, so go ahead, take your pick. I'll respond to
whichever one you choose, I promise. Hehe, you're welcome."
"Arataki "Numero Uno" Itto, here in the flesh! Hahaha... cough"
"Best flavor in the world? The sweet, sweet taste of victory.
And that's why I've never spent a single coin on any of my
snacks — I've won 'em all fair and square... That's right.
Either that or my friends decides to spoil me. They didn't have
to but it feels nice."
"Don't underestimate the beetle — they can be some of the
toughest little guys around! Yes you can, yes you can— Wanna
know what's on this beetle's diet? Sweat and tears, that's what!
That's how it gets stronger... I think we can all learn
somethin' from that!"
~Itto about his beetle in a bug fight
"Hey jerkwad! Attacking defenseless people is cowardly enough
but you crossed a HUGE line getting kids involved! And as the
one who is basically an older oni brother to them, you just made
a special order of ass kicking! And it's coming in hot!"
During a mission when it was starting to rain. Zoe frown when
she felt the rain coming and goes through her backpack.
Zoe: Hey Itto, you want one?
Itto: Pfft, real men don't carry umbrellas... Oh boy, wow, it's
really starting to pick up. Uh quick, c'mon, get yours out!
C'mon, quick, quick, quick!
Zoe just shake her head lightly with a smile as she takes out
her umbrella for the two of them.
When facing against a enemy demigod who has thunder powers
"Hey! Thunder Jerk, is that you? Well guess what — you're not
the boss of me. Uh-huh, that's right, you heard me! Go ahead,
strike me down!"
"No way! That Sabbat Vampire chick has earth powers as well? Now
I HAVE to fight her! It only makes sense since I'm a earth user
as well."
~Itto when he saw I.S. Karasu "Raven" Darkfire-Creed use her
earth powers and wants to fight her.
"The sky is clear and the sun is shining... Time to get the
Onikabuto out for some training! C'mon Little Zoe, let's go!"
"I used to take in odd jobs but after fighting some jerk who was
messing with my home and my gang, the group who helped me seemed
pretty cool and offered me a sweet deal. I got nothing else to
do and I love exploring new places so I took the offer."
"So you finally grown a little bit, haven't you, squirt."
~Itto lightly teasing Zoe Zolnerowich as a way for welcoming her
by ruffling her hair playfully.
"The yokai and hybrids like me have been through a lot to get to
where we are today, and look at us now — living peacefully
alongside the humans. Unfortunately, there's still plenty of
people out there who've got a bone to pick with us. Hmm? Change?
Oh yeah, things are gonna change, alright! You can count on
that! But I'll tell you what, it won't involve any sucking up to
the humans on my part, nuh-uh! I'm gonna let my actions do the
talkin'. They'll come to respect me eventually."
~Itto to a traveler about the neutral village he's living in and
guarding
"Listen pal, if you got beef with me then keep it between you
and me. Don't involve innocent people into it! That just makes
you a bully and a coward and I hate those types of people."
"What did you say, little punk? Go on. Say it to my face." punch
his fist into the palm of his hand.
During a battle in another world with the world's version of
Kuyō, an old Japanese fortress starts to come down due to
the impact of the fight.
Kuyō: You had your fun, boy. Now it's goodbye--."
Itto: SHUT UP, WOULD YA?! performs one of his most powerful
demon ki arts on Kuyō, sending him flying through a wall
"Just because I'm a hybrid doesn't mean that I'm some weakling!
I've kicked hundreds of asses of those who looked down on me
just because of my mixed blood. Unless you want to be one of the
two hundred who's going to receive an ass kicking, I suggest you
either beg for forgiveness or back off. Because I am NOT in the
mood for your crap tonight."
"I gotta respect the hanyo for sacrificing themselves so that we
could live on... In principle, though, I'm absolutely against
it. No one should have to sacrifice their own kind for the sake
of a better tomorrow, period. It's only a better tomorrow if
it's a better tomorrow for everyone. We need to work together,
not have everyone just focused on themselves, making their own
sacrifice, trying to look cool in the process... Eh, I guess
there's no changing the past, what's done is done. But from this
day forward, no more sacrificing, not on my watch! You go to
sacrifice yourself, I'll stand right in your way!"
"Fast as the wind and mighty as thunder, he is an intrepid man
with Oni blood running through his veins."
~A villager commenting about Itto.

Organization:
Arataki Gang (Founder and Leader)
Exiles
Powers:
Hanyo Physiology:
~A user with this ability either is or can transform into a
hanyō: a being (most commonly one of the first generation)
with human and yokai ancestry.
Itto is an oni hanyo, due to his mother being a human and his
father being a powerful oni. He is also a descendant of the
infamous Kijin, Ōtakemaru, who was also part of the Nihon
san dai yōkai, or "Great Three Yōkai" of Japan
alongside with Shuten dōji and Tamamo no Mae. This makes
Itto one of the most powerful hanyo in Japan.
Oni Physiology:
~Users with this ability either is or can transform into an Oni,
variously translated as demons, devils, ogres or trolls but are
usually more than anything closer to Orges & Trolls. Depictions
of oni vary widely but usually portray them as hideous, gigantic
ogre-like creatures with sharp claws, wild hair, and horns
growing from their heads. They are humanoid for the most part,
but occasionally, they are shown with unnatural features such as
odd numbers of eyes or extra fingers and toes. Their skin may be
any number of colors, but red and blue are particularly common
and are often depicted wearing tiger-skin loincloths and
carrying iron clubs.
Oni were originally invisible spirits or gods which caused
disasters, disease, and other unpleasant things. These nebulous
beings could also take on a variety of forms to deceive and
often devour humans. In folktales they are usually malicious,
man-eating creatures to be feared and slain by valiant heroes,
the oni can also have a protective function. They are often
described as rowdy, party-loving bunch with fondness for
contests and games.
Most oni, especially in folktales, are rather foolish and/or
simple beings, but some are both highly intelligent and
creative.
Itto is a oni/human hybrid, or an Hanyo in Shinto terms.
Powerhouse Physiology:
~The user possesses an enhanced physiology suited for immense
strength. The muscles of the users are many times more efficient
than that of a normal human being. Their skeleton will most
likely be many times harder than a normal human's so that they
can operate at immense physical strength. The chemical process
of their musculature is also highly enhanced so that their body
does not generate fatigue poisons, the normal by-product of
physical stress, which forces the body to rest.
God/Goddess Birthmark:
~Like many Asian demigods and half demons, Itto have a
particular type of birthmark that identifies them as what they
are and whose child they are. Itto bares the symbol of his
grandfather on the back of his left shoulder which he also use
as a banner for his gang.

Environmental Adaptation:
~The user can survive and adapt to any environment and/or
condition, being able to tolerate a wide range of temperatures
and levels of moisture, any amount/quality of sustenance,
breathable medium, etc. with little or no discomfort.
Elemental Immunity:
~The user is immune to all elements and elemental forces, being
completely invulnerable to direct and indirect effects.
Matter Ingestion:
~The user can eat any substance without harmful effects,
regardless of what they consume. They can consume matter in any

fingertips/hands/wrists/fists/feet for various (mostly
offensive) purposes.
Horn Protrusion:
~The user either has or can generate horns on their head or
body, which can be used offensively.
Powerful Bite:
~Users has a particularly strong bite, either because of sharp
fangs/teeth, strong jaw-muscles, unusual jaw-structure
(mandibles of insects, beak, etc.) or some other reason. Exactly
what they can bite depends on the jaw-strength, resilience of
their teeth/bite-surface and their shape.
Earth Manipulation:
~Users can create, shape and manipulate earth and "earthen"
elements including most solid objects, specifically all minerals
and mineral compositions regardless of their state (mountain,
boulder, sand or dust), dirt, soil, etc. More advanced users can
manipulate metals such as iron, copper and titanium.
Offensive uses of this power include extracting huge boulders
from the ground and hurling it at the enemy at high speeds,
impaling the enemy with countless spikes from the earth and in
some cases creating giant golems or other creatures from earth
and utilize them for combat. Defensive powers include shaping
huge walls or barriers from the ground, creating an
omni-directional wave of rocks/stone around the user to defend
from all attacks and covering oneself with armor made from
earth. Supplementary uses of this power include flight by
standing on a piece of levitating earth and enhanced movement by
using by skating on the earth and gaining enhanced senses from
sensing the earth.
Earth Generation:
~The user is able to generate earth, sand, stone, or any other
minerals.
Earth Aura:
~The user can release and surround themselves in/with earth and
earthen materials for defensive and/or offensive purposes,
possibly becoming almost untouchable and granting them various
abilities/attacks. The auras may also give the user enhanced
physical capabilities such as speed, strength and durability.
Earth Energy Manipulation:
~User can create, shape and manipulate the energies of the
Earth, including geothermal energy and geomagnetism, as a force
to crush objects, cause earthquakes, create force fields,
project concussive blasts, form weaponry, and/or manipulate
physical aspects of earth, such as rock, etc.
Earth Empowerment:
~Users become stronger, faster, more durable, etc. when they
come in contact with earth/land/soil, possibly unlocking
abilities related to the affinity and enhancing the existing
powers. Some users may be able draw sustenance from the earth or
even slow or stop aging.
Earth Healing:
~The user can heal themselves or others by using earth.
Earth Sealing:
~The user is able to seal earth within objects/beings and
release them when needed, causing it to have various effects on
the target.
Ground Rupturing:
~The user can channel energies into the ground and cause the
area to rupture and burst.
Earth Detection:
~User can sense the presence of earth and other "earthen"
elements and possibly gain detailed understanding about Earth
they are sensing, including the amount/size of the earth they
are sensing and whether it is hidden.
Earth Solidification:
~User can solidify or give solid-like properties to all
earth-based substances with the level of solidity going from
loose jelly to metal-like hardness or beyond. Alternatively, the
user can also harden earth to make it denser and harder to
break.
Geokinetic Surfing:
~User controls the earth in a way that increases their ability
to move and/or maneuver either by granting them abilities they
otherwise lack or allowing them to ignore normally needed
equipment.
Bio-Earth Manipulation:
~User can create, shape, and manipulate bio-generated earth and
earthen material. They can control any natural earthen solid
substance be it organic or inorganic. The user is also able to
manifest and harness said properties of this form of matter
inside and around them.
With enough experience, the user can go the level of controlling
the entirety of the solid state of matter.
Bio-Earth Energy Manipulation:
~The user can channel their bio-energy field to create, control,
and manipulate the energies found in and driving
earthly/solid-based elements. They can harness these very forces
inside and around them. They can even manifest the elements
these energies drive.
Bio-Metal Manipulation:
~The user can create, shape and manipulate bio-metal, a special
metallic substance that has all the properties of metal while
also being biological/organic of nature. Because this metal is
alive, it can think on its own, change shape, and bond to a
host.
Ground Manipulation:
~The user can create, shape and manipulate the ground, whether
it be based on artificial materials (like asphalt and concrete)
or natural materials (like sand and stone), including the things
connected to the ground such as grass and other plants.
Metal Manipulation:
~The user can create, shape and manipulate metal, a solid
material (an element, compound, or alloy) that is typically
hard, shiny, and features good electrical and thermal
conductivity. Metals are generally malleable—they can be
hammered or pressed permanently out of shape without breaking or
cracking—as well as fusible (able to be fused or melted) and
ductile (able to be drawn out into a thin wire).
Magma Manipulation:
~The user can create, shape and manipulate molten rock (magma
while underground, lava when on the surface), a mixture of
molten or semi-molten rock, volatiles, and solids, it may also
contain suspended crystals, dissolved gas and gas bubbles.
Sand Manipulation:
~The user can create, shape and manipulate sand, a naturally
occurring loose, fragmented/granular sedimentary material
composed of finely divided rock and mineral particles ranging in
diameter from 0.0625 mm (or 1⁄16 mm) to 2 mm.
The most common sand is composed of particles of quartz
(colorless/slightly pink) and feldspar (pink/amber). Black
sands, such as those found in Hawaii, are composed of particles
of obsidian formed by volcanic activity. Other black sands
include materials such as magnetite and homblende. Coral sands
are white or gray, and sands composed of broken shell fragments
are usually light brown.
Sand Generation:
~The user can generate sand.
Carbon Manipulation:
~The user can move, shape and otherwise manipulate all forms of
carbon, a naturally abundant (fourth most abundant by mass)
non-metallic element that occurs in many inorganic and in all
organic compounds, exists freely as graphite and diamond and as
a constituent of coal, limestone and petroleum, and is capable
of chemical self-bonding to form an enormous number of
chemically, biologically, and commercially important molecules.
The user can control carbon, forming constructs, changing it
into various physical states and altering properties, including
color, density, texture and flammability.
Carbon Generation:
~The user can generate carbon and carbon-based substance;
materializing it from either nothing or an existing source and
use them for a variety of purposes.
Graphite Manipulation:
~The user can move, shape and otherwise manipulate graphite and
it's properties, including conductivity, self-lubricating and
dry lubricating properties, etc., forming constructs, etc.
According to what happened within reactor #4 of the Chernobyl
nuclear power plant, the control rods tipped with graphite tends
to accelerate reactivity infinite-fold to the point where the
power surge worsens, and then causing a nuclear meltdown to take
place.
Black Earth Manipulation:
~User can create, shape and manipulate the earth of a darker,
detrimental nature; that which damages, destroys, and consumes
anything/everything they come across, representing the hazardous
destructive side of earth, which in turn ignores most of the
limitations and weaknesses of the normal earth. In essence, this
is about solely controlling the negative powers of earth.
Itto is not only able to do this but can create and manipulate
the darker versions of other earthen materials such as carbon
and sand.
Demonic Earth Manipulation:
~The user can create, shape and manipulate earth derived from
the deepest pits of Hell, sporting the capability to destroy
nearly anything it strikes with absolute malevolent intent. In
addition, demonic earth is capable of inflicting excruciating
pain; both physically and spiritually tormenting the victim, has
the potential to corrupt one's soul, and is very effective
against the holiest of supernaturals, such as angels. More
powerful users can even ultimately summon/resurrect/create evil
spirits, elemental entities and/or demons from Hell.
Itto is not only able to do this but can create and manipulate
the demonic versions of other earthen materials such as carbon
and sand.
Dark Metal Manipulation:
~User can create, shape and manipulate metal of a darker,
detrimental nature; that which damages, destroys, and consumes
anything/everything they come across, representing the hazardous
destructive side of darkness/shadow, which in turn ignores most
of the limitations and weaknesses of the normal metal. In
essence, this is about solely controlling the negative powers of
metal.
Demonic Metal Manipulation:
~The user can create, shape and manipulate metal derived from
the depths of Hell, sporting the capability to destroy nearly
anything it strikes with absolute malevolent intent. In
addition, demonic metal is capable of inflicting excruciating
pain, both physically and spiritually tormenting the victim. It
has the potential to corrupt one's soul, and is very effective
against the holiest of supernaturals, such as angels. More
powerful users can even ultimately summon/resurrect/create evil
spirits, elemental entities and/or demons from Hell.
Demonic Plant Manipulation:
~The user can create, shape and manipulate plants derived from
the deepest pits of Hell, sporting the capability to overtake
nearly anything it strikes with absolute malevolent intent. In
addition, demonic plants are capable of inflicting excruciating
pain; both physically and spiritually tormenting the victim, has
the potential to corrupt one's soul, and is very effective
against the holiest of supernaturals, such as angels. More
powerful users can even ultimately summon/resurrect/create evil
spirits, plant entities and/or demons from Hell.
Dark/Demonic Concrete/Stone Manipulation:
~Yet another ability he can use is that he can use his demonic
earth manipulation to manipulate stone, dirt and concrete. This
is more along the lines of what most people think when they
think of earth manipulation, with most earth manipulators being
able to do this very basic technique. For Itto, he is no
different, and can use this earth manipulation just like
everyone else. He is able to use stone, dirt, or even concrete
depending on what he wants to do. Usually, stone and concrete
are the main simple earth manipulations he sticks to, due to
them being simple but effective. As a result, Itto uses them to
attack opponents or create defensive walls around himself with
these earth manipulations. Since current society has a lot of
concentrate in things like roads and buildings, this lets Itto
manipulate this and use it for his own gain. By doing this, he
can also manipulate things like buildings, by bringing down a
building with his power if he's near a building, or even pull it
off it's foundation and hurl it at someone. For the most part,
things like small houses and smaller buildings aren't too hard
to manipulate, but Itto can't always manipulate larger
structures like skyscrapers, so Itto usually can't bring down
heavier buildings without concentration or if he's in one of his
enhanced forms.
Dark-Demonic Magma/Ash Manipulation:
~Itto is also able to use magma abilities and ash manipulation
to fight his opponents. Due to a life threatening situation and
despite him not being a flame user, Itto learned he is able to
create a dark and demonic magma manipulation, as well as
manipulate the ash of the magma. The magma is usable like one
would expect, being a liquidlike mix of molten rock and
liquidlike flames that are designed to do mixed elemental damage
and dark or demonic damage. The ash is also usable though, as
Itto can use it to poison people if they inhale the ash, as the
dark or demonic ash can not only prove to make them unable to
breathe properly, but the dark ot demonic energy of the ash
could slowly burn the air passage ways in the lungs as well.
This manipulation is best countered by water/ice manipulation,
with holy powers also working fairly well with a strong enough
defense.
Yokai Energy Manipulation:
~The user can create, shape and manipulate energies of yokai
origin. They would be able to do all kinds of unholy things with
their unique type of energy. Things like creating blasts in
creating or summoning beings of yokai energy. Users would even
be able to summon yokai themselves, through ritual use of the
energy.
Yokai Force Manipulation:
~The user of this power possesses and is able to utilize strong
yokai power. This ability not only grants the user great
strength and control over numerous variations of yokai abilities
but also allows them to overwhelm weaker yokai as well as rival
that of powerful yokai.
The user has control of anything that is symbolized as
extraterrestrial and connected to yokai. They are able to
manipulate sacred objects and relics that are connected to yokai
and/or their power. With this, the user is completely considered
worthy of yokai respect, allowing them to achieve feats that are
impossible to be reached by normal standards.
Strong Heart:
~Users possess a very potent heart both spiritually and
physically letting them survive most heart diseases. The user's
heart also possesses a grand form of power, allowing them to
survive most forms of corruption or whatever seeks to harm it.
Strong Soul:
~User has a strong soul that is equivalent to the power of many
souls which comes in handy in situations that tests one's
spiritual fortitude and grants spiritual abilities. The user's
soul is unable to be bound by anything and lives free without
any need of dependence. It is also strengthened by the user's
desire to get what they want, no matter the cost.
Earth Abilities:
Iron Rock Wall:
~The user manipulates the earth to form a wall, blocking
incoming attacks. The wall comes in a variety of forms, ranging
from simple pillars to traditional walls.
Rock Avalance:
~While standing near a rocky surface, the user extends one hand
towards the target, the index and middle fingers outstretched,
and the others bent. This prompts the nearby surface to be split
into boulders of various sizes, which are lifted into the air
and sent flying at the target with a great amount of force and
cause a huge blast.
Supreme King Rock Crush:
~The user uses the rocks around them to surround the enemy and
crush them with multiple sized stones. This spell was shown in
two phases. The first phase involves surrounding the enemy with
stones, which binds them. The second phase crushes all stones
which surrounds the enemy. This spell is very powerful, as it is
capable of sealing powerful beings if the user concentrated and
has a seal symbol carved onto it. Although this can kill weaker
beings, this is capable of trapping stronger beings.
Iron Rock Fist:
~The user sculpts a gigantic fist from the ground that can be
used to attack the opponent. The path of the fist can be
maneuvered by the user's command, making it possible for the
user to follow the opponent's movements.
Rock Mountain:
~The user claps their hands together to manipulate the earth
around them to create a rock mountain that can be used to block
incoming attacks. This mountain is intricately designed,
sculpted into what seems to be a giant warrior wearing an armor
with spikes going upwards.
Rumbling Mt. Fuji:
~The user presses both hands together and summons an enormous
amount of power that overwhelms the target in a beam that comes
out of the ground and destroys the surrounding landscape. This
is one of Itto's most powerful attacks which he can use his ki
to perform it.
Talus:
~The user surrounds themselves with several rock pillars,
protecting them from incoming attacks. A talus is an
architectural feature accompanying the design of some
late-Medieval castles, consisting of a sloped face at the base
of a fortified wall, making conventional siege equipment, like
scaling ladders, less effective.
Iron Rock Spikes:
~The user creates a number of earth spikes which erupt out of
the ground and immobilize their opponent.
Iron Rock Powder Explosion:
~The user summons five long earth spikes that pierce their
opponent from all sides.
Liquid Ground:
~Liquid Ground allows the user to soften or liquefy the ground,
subsequently manipulating it to their every whim. This spell's
main form of offense consists of turning large portions of
ground below the target into liquid, subsequently raising them
in "waves" to envelop and crash foes, with the ground acting
like quicksand. Through the use of this ability alone, the user
is shown capable of taking on several enemies, giving them
trouble and preventing them from attacking, lest they sink. The
liquefied ground itself has enough blunt power to destroy a
large building when struck. Such softening power aren't used for
offense alone, and has other avenues for usage, with the user
being capable, for instance, of making the ground cave in by
liquefying it, generating holes that can serve as shelters for
them or their allies. The user can also employ Liquid Ground to
nullify other earth-based attacks. In addition, the user has
proven themselves capable of using this spell as a means of
transportation, traveling through the ground after liquefying
it; in such state, the user can carry passengers without causing
them any harm.
Basic Ki Abilities:
Ki Control:
~Ki users aren't really all that different from chi, mana and
aura users, having their own skillset for ki use just as other
energy users have developed their own abilities. Similar to how
other energy users have certain focuses (like aura being used
for defense), ki users have a focus as well. In the case of ki
users, ki users focus on amplification of their bodies and
energy techniques using ki as their power source. Ki users are
most common when referring to Saiyans and Namekians who
specialize in ki as well as a few other select races like the
Frieza race (sometimes referred to as Acrosians) and certain
humans who learned the art as well, but can be used by any race
that can generate ki (which most living races or mechanical
races with ki generating cores can). This has the same drawbacks
as things like chi and aura though, as once the user runs out,
they can't use ki abilities anymore and can be left at a
disadvantage as they will lose their ability to use techniques
and lose their ki amplification. All of these abilities are
dodgable, with most being blockable with the right strategies
assuming it's not a defense piercing technique. And aura breaker
weapons can easily dispel almost any type of ki (it is not known
if there are any immune to aura breaker weapons, but so far none
have been reported), so aura breaker weapons can make pretty
quick work of ki attacks. And like aura, the color of one's ki
is usually random, depending on the individual and only
sometimes might reflect on the user, such as god ki users using
red or blue god ki, or super saiyans having yellow ki. Overall
though, ki users are just like many other energy users. This
covers mostly normal ki, though some can learn more advanced ki
like god ki, demon ki, or even certain other unique kinds of ki
that exist.
Dou/Sei Ki Knowledge Power Focus:
~While ki is often described as having positive and negative
types, this is more of a simpler explanation. The true focus of
ki is broken down into two ki's, which are present in others.
The stronger ki will often determine how a user gets stronger,
and usually also determines a lot of their approach to combat.
Dou ki concentrates a more aggressive type ki that gets stronger
through stronger emotions (usually through anger), but also
usually through battle itself. On the other hand, Sei ki is
usually a much more passive type ki, usually used by those that
are not aggressive and don't prefer to use their ki to fight
others. While Sei Ki users also train normally to get stronger,
their biggest focus is usually inward, where they focus more on
meditation and calmness rather than on strong emotions like dou
ki users. Both usually have different approaches to training and
combat, which also seems to come out in their personalities as
well. It isn't known if personalities are the result of the
person's dominant ki side or if the ki side is dominant because
of the person's personality. However, each ki user does have
their dominant ki side, with each user having to figure this out
for themselves and learn to balance their ki. Typically, balance
is not achieved by just equalling the two out, but instead,
users have to keep their natural ratio of ki balanced in order
to keep their power balanced. Both ki types are usually not
fully attainable and their natures pulled out into the ki itself
unless one does specific advanced training for one of them, and
users have to focus on their dominant side of ki. If a user uses
both or tries to use the non-dominant ki, they can do severe
harm to themselves, even if they manage to succeed in using the
ki properly. This balance is a bit different from other energy
users, and requires a user to focus inward in order to figure
out their own balance. This training is a necessary step to
training, as a user has to find out what their dominant ki is
before they can use ki at all.
Ki User Physical and Supernatural Amplification:
~This is the most known focus of ki users' abilities, and is the
focus of much of their training. Most ki users are trained from
the beginning of their ki training to use their ki to amplify
their physical and supernatural stats, where their ki acts as an
amplifier similar to those that use things like spirit
amplification or mana amplification. This training amplifies a
supernatural's abilities, both physically and through their
supernatural power. Usually, ki is generated in the body and
strengthens the body through focus of the body and mind of the
ki user. This has a number of effects on the body, such as an
increase in strength and speed, amplified defense and
durability, and increasing the power of their supernatural
abilities through using ki to amplify any supernatural energies
that are used. This amplification is the main focus besides ki
techniques, and requires immense training and physical control
to learn to focus ki. While not requiring as much focus as
things like god ki training or divine state training, ki still
requires focus and using both the mind and body to harness ki
and use it as an amplifier. Overall, this ki amplification is
useful, but still has the same weaknesses as other energy users
in that they can only use this amplification as long as they
have ki. Once they run out, they will lose this amplification,
and be forced down to their normal stats.
Ki Aura:
~This refers to the ki that is emitted from a person, in which
their ki forms an aura when focused around the user. This aura
reacts based on the ki of the person, and how they use it. For
example, if a user powers up, their ki emitted into their aura
grows stronger, and their aura grows larger. Depending on the
focus of the user, the aura may show when a ki user is charging
up attacks, or a user's aura may flare up while they are in a
powerful state. Typically, this aura has a few functions. First,
the aura is focused into special aura based techniques, with
some having special techniques using the ki in their aura, or
some can even use this ki to charge their power using special ki
charging techniques, which is often the most used use for ki
aura. Usually, aura also acts like a passive defense, as when
concentrated, it can help protect a user from attacks and dampen
damage done. While not as effective as some other types of
energy defense, this does help in battles as users of ki will
typically emit ki even when using special trainings like god ki
that focus on containing ki in the body. To a degree, ki usually
reflects the person, and can come in many shapes and forms.
Depending on the person, ki color can also be unique, with some
types of ki having unique effects. Typically, ki aura is just a
reflection of certain actions ki users take, such as flaring up
when powering up, or concentrating itself if a user is focusing
a ki attack. Unless one has special ki aura techniques, this
doesn't really do damage, and more is just a way to help focus
ki for users, and help them more easily charge their ki.
Physical Strain Ki Radiation:
~This technique is a skill developed by ki users to replicate a
similar technique used by mana users. This power lets a ki user
relieve some of the stress of the energy has on their bodies out
through expanding their expulsion of ki into their aura,
allowing them to relieve the body of the burdens on their
bodies. Typically, this is most useful when one is trying to
boost their durability, as this can help relieve them a little
during fights. This can reduce the tension of using their ki,
and can help with stamina management. This allows the body to
keep itself from straining itself too much if used properly, and
can be used to help when the body is under extreme pressure.
Users can also use it when in battle, such as trying to hold
back a strong attack, as they can use this to allow them to use
their power more easily. Unlike with mana users, this is a
conscious ability, which a user has to expend ki to expand one's
ki outward too allow the body to relieve it's tension from the
energy use. Typically, this uses ki, which means that users have
to be careful when using this. Unlike mana radiating from the
body, ki users actually expend ki in order to use this, making
it useful, but having a downside in that it uses ki. Without ki
to expend, this technique is not able to be used, similar to
it's mana counterpart. This also only helps to a certain level,
and usually cannot help people overcome attacks at a certain
level, as the relief and power one can call forth from doing
this is dependent on their ki levels and how much ki they
expend. Some ki users have even expended all their ki doing this
to stop stronger attacks, which can leave them exhausted and out
of ki. Caution should be used before this is attempted.
Ki Defense and Durability Amplification:
~This is another great use of ki manipulation, in which those
who use it are able to passively increase their defense and
durability using ki. This not only falls under the physical
amplification, but the effects of the defense and durability
increase also have other effects as well. Ki defense is somewhat
similar to aura defense, but overall works somewhat differently.
Unlike aura defense which protects someone completely, ki
defense focuses on strengthening the body rather than putting a
barrier like aura defense. Ki defense strengthens the entire
body, making it harder to damage, and usually, protects it from
weaker opponents. Many times, weaker opponents will do little
damage to an opponent with ki defense, as the ki defense will
strengthen their body considerably. When used, ki defense will
lessen damage done, and works similarly to other things like
dragon skin that make the skin tougher, except that ki defense
makes the entire body tougher. As a result, the body takes less
damage, and is harder to pierce as a result of this passive
defense. This also is less costly on energy to use than aura
defense, since the ki in the body is used to strengthen the body
rather than using energy outside the body. This may not be as
protective as aura defense though, and stronger opponents can
break through this defense if they put enough power into the
attack, as they only have to overpower the ki defense to hurt
someone. Unlike aura defense, this is not a complete defense,
and while it may not cost as much energy, it doesn't provide as
much protection. This can also still only be used while the user
has ki, as once they run out, they will lose this defense and
return to their normal physical stats.
Ki Hardening:
~This is a pure defensive technique where the user condenses
their ki in and around their body in a temporary defensive
pattern similar to aura lock. Some ki users have different means
of using this, but usually, this is designed to defend against
stronger techniques and attacks that normal defense can't
handle. Usually, this concentrates towards the front, in which
the user can bring up their arms in front of them to generate
their ki in a defensive pattern. Some are even skilled enough to
focus it into their hand to help catch attacks. This depends on
the ki user, and depending on the user, usually determines how
this technique is used. This is a very useful technique for
blocking attacks temporarily, but takes more energy to use and
hold in place, meaning it's only useful when absolutely needed
due to the stamina and energy cost of the technique. This
technique isn't really too much different from the aura lock
technique, including the fact that most ki users have to stay
still while focusing this technique, as this focus to use this
technique. Advanced users of this can move while using this, but
usually not too much as they still have to focus on their ki to
use this. Most of the time, advanced users will use this to slap
away projectile attacks or catch attacks, or use the ki defense
to not be blown away by strong energy attacks. This technique is
strong, but the ki hardening is only as strong as the ki allows
it to be, and some stronger energy attacks might not be able to
be blocked as effectively, as stronger ki attacks will break
this defense. And of course, aura breaker abilities can
instantly break this defense.
Ki Barrier Defense:
~In a manner similar to other energy user's special defense
spirit skills that use energy to protect parts of the body and a
manner similar to aura defense that protects the whole body, ki
users have a special barrier technique to protect them in
dangerous situations. Some have special barrier techniques, such
as some can create special spherical barriers, but many just
create barriers around their bodies to protect themselves from
something. This is very useful in dangerous environments, as the
barrier can be used to protect from dangerous environments like
radioactive areas, or places with corrosive or corruptive
energies, as it protects the body from outside influences. As
mentioned, there are plenty of people with unique techniques to
use this, but overall, the two main uses of this involve
spherical barriers and barriers that cover the body completely.
Unlike defense spirit abilities like Haki or Pai Zhua, this is a
barrier that goes up around the entire body, and can protect the
entire body at once. The only downside to this is that it uses
more energy than other defense spirit abilities, but is far more
protective than other defense spirit techniques. These barriers
can be broken though with enough power, and techniques designed
to negate energy can actually break through these (like aura
breaker weapons/powers). Overall, this is a technique designed
for a quick defense that needs to protect the whole body, but is
not designed to be held for long periods of time due to how much
ki is used to maintain a barrier. Some can hold barriers up
longer than others, but overall, ki cost can be quite high if
overused. Users can also obviously only use this while they have
ki.
Ki Attack Focus:
~Through advanced ki training, some ki users can focus their ki
into a single point of attack, concentrating their ki more so
they can damage opponents with more focused attacks rather than
wasting power. Not only does this let them save ki by not
wasting ki on larger attacks, but also lets them break defenses
more easily where they are able to break things like aura
defense, dragon skin or other defense techniques much more
easily using this power. This is a highly advanced technique
only high level ki users are able to master, and requires not
just ki concentration, but martial arts knowledge and practice
as it is more of a combat style about focusing and condensing
attacks than simply attacking with wasted force. This skill is
very useful when mastered though, as it helps concentrate ki
into attacks, rather than just spreading the attack over a large
area where it won't do as much damage. Those who use this could
essentially punch through a boulder, leaving only a hole where
their fist punched through, showing their concentrated strength,
but also showing that they only damage what they attack
directly. But while this is effective, it does require the user
to be focused, and using their martial arts effectively in order
to use this properly. It also means that damage is condensed
into one area, meaning that the damage done may be more to the
singular point, but won't be as damaging to the overall thing or
person they're trying to damage. This does better damage, and
helps the ki user focus better on their attacks, but overall
does somewhat limit the attack when it's focused in one point.
Darkness Mixer Ki Charge (Darker ki type users only):
~This technique is used by demons of the demon realm (In the
Dragonball Pantheon), and is a technique exclusively taught
among demon ki users. This technique recharges ki using darkness
energy rather than focusing ki, using the sheer power of
darkness to the user's advantage. This technique specializes in
not only recharging ki, but also recharging stamina due to how
this technique works. This ki charge is based around absorbing
darkness and using darkness to recharge ki, by drawing the ki
out of the darkness using demon ki training which recharges
one's ki when using demonic ki training. However, ki is not the
only part of this technique, as the darkness energy not absorbed
into the ki is absorbed into the body and the energy is able to
replenish the stamina of the user who is absorbing the darkness
thanks to the demon ki training. This technique is more useful
than Maximum Charge simply because it allows one to also
recharge stamina, but requires more focus than Maximum or
Ultimate Charge, and overuse of this can actually damage the
user due to the power of the darkness energy absorbed regardless
of skill level. This is a somewhat risky technique at times, but
users who can use it find it far more useful than other charge
techniques. Like other charge techniques, attacking the user
will interrupt this technique, and force the user to stop this
technique.
Ki Flight and Ki Grip:
~Those who learn to use ki are able to use ki to do other things
than just using ki in battle for blasting people or for defense.
For ki users, they are able to fly by channeling ki to the
bottom of their feet and using it to lift themselves off, and
can fly extremely fast once they've trained the skill and can
handle the wind while flying. Ki users are able to use this art
to fly for long periods of time, and some can even learn to fly
faster than fighter jets if they become experienced enough and
can handle flying at higher speeds (usually through increasing
their ki defense to help them handle the force of their faster
flight). Another skill is using this to grip or walk up/on
something most wouldn't be able to, in which users learn to
cling to objects in different ways. Some ki users learn this by
using this to walk on water, or walk up trees similar to some
chakra training so that they can more easily learn to use the
basics of the ki grip. Of course, being able to fly makes this
useless after a while, but mostly this is used for training the
initial skill more than being useful. However, there is another
use for this, which is to tighten grip on things like weapons
and things they want to hold, where the item in the user's hand
cannot be knocked out of their hand while this ki grip is in
effect. This is the biggest use for the ki grip, once one has
learned to fly and rarely uses it. Most users can fly around as
long as they have ki, and can use this ki grip as long as they
have ki. Typically, these are just skills that are useful to
certain situations, or useful for getting around more easily, or
keeping grip on something more easily. While this is useful,
it's not really a damaging battle skill, since this can't be
used to "attack" opponents (though it is possible for ki users
to fight each other while flying, which is something that ki
users will use flight for at times during battle). And of
course, this can only be used as long as the user has ki.
Ki Blasts, Charged Ki Blasts and Ki Techniques:
~This is a basic ki user ability, where almost every ki user
learns to focus their ki into ki blasts, which can be fired at
opponents that explode on impact. This focuses their ki into
blasts which can be used different ways. Most users develop a
slew of ki techniques, and can be used many different ways
depending on the user and the training the user has in ki.
Normal ki blasts can be fired like bullets at opponents, thrown
like balls at opponents, or can be used to fire homing ki blasts
with concentration. There are different levels and types of ki
blasts, usually dependent on the user and how they choose to
focus their ki, such as some who fire simple explosive blasts,
or some that may be used in special ways, such as homing ki
blasts or beams to break defenses. This depends on the ki user
and how they use their ki, and even sometimes depends on their
race as some races may focus their ki blasts differently
depending on the race. Another technique with this is the
charged ki blast, where the user is able to charge their ki into
a larger blast to do more damage. There are a few types of
charged ki blasts depending on the ki type, just like normal ki
blasts. Most users usually rely on their advanced ki techniques,
since everyone develops their own techniques or learns from a
master of ki. Usually, basic ki blasts and charged ki blasts are
useful against weaker opponents who users don't want to waste
stronger attacks on. Most ki users focus on the advanced ki
techniques, but most are able to use basic blasts. Typically,
these blasts are not too strong, but are strong enough that they
can be effective to stagger opponents, or catch opponents off
guard if used properly.
Kamehameha:
~A powerful ki blast fired with two hands after concentrating a
large amount of ki. The Kamehameha is formed when cupped hands
are drawn to the user's side and ki is concentrated into a
single point (between their cupped hands). The hands are then
thrust forward to shoot out a streaming, powerful beam of
energy. The blast can also be used, generally under extenuating
circumstances, with just one arm or even the feet. In most
variants, the user utters the word "Ka-me-ha-me-HA!!!" as he/she
charges and releases the attack.
Ki Transfer/Ki Revive:
~This technique is usually for allies, where ki users learn to
transfer their ki to others. While the absorption of other's ki
forcefully is forbidden arts territory, most users learn this as
a way to help their allies, in which they can transfer ki to
allies in order to power them up or restore their energy. Users
can do this with their own ki, even reviving someone from death
if they are healed and they are transferred energy before their
soul leaves for the afterlife (like some that might not be able
to heal certain wounds before the person dies). Typically, this
power is very useful when fighting in groups, as it allows
people to support each other. Often, ki users transfer special
ki energy to each other at times, such as a sage ki user
transferring some sage ki to allies in order to power them up
with it, or transferring ki into someone to grant them special
ki defense temporarily. The specific effects can vary depending
on the energy used, and how it is transferred. If the user is at
full power, receiving energy can make them stronger to a certain
point, while using energy on someone who has depleted their
energy will use the energy to restore some of their lost energy
and stamina. Advanced users of this are able to amp their allies
even if they are exhausted, and make them more powerful by using
their ki to amplify their abilities. This can even be used to
help someone recover a little faster from injuries, as long as
the injuries aren't too severe. However, the major danger of
this technique is that users can get overwhelmed at a certain
level, and overwhelming them could cause them to literally
explode if they accept too much ki, or cause damage to their
bodies beyond a certain level. Amping one's power beyond one's
limits has it's consequences, which is why people must be
careful when using this on allies and make sure not to give them
too much ki. However, overwhelming someone does sometimes work
on ki users who absorb ki through forbidden arts, but those who
absorb this ki can usually have to choose to absorb the ki, as
they can cut off the flow of energy if they don't want the
energy.
Kiai (Attack Wave):
~This is more of a physical ki wave which is fired by ki users
like a concussive wave, blasting a shockwave outward, usually
toward an opponent using their ki. This technique is invisible
to the naked eye, but can be sensed by anyone that can sense
energy, making it useful if an opponent cannot sense energy.
These are waves of pure physical force, which are created and
focused by ki to do damage to opponents who normally wouldn't be
as vulnerable to energy attacks. This is usable by most ki
users, as this is more of a physical attack focused through ki
rather than a ki technique, and is a basic technique that most
ki users learn when using things like simple ki blasts as this
is a pretty basic use of ki. This attack wave is useful for
attacking someone farther away without wasting ki to use a
stronger ki technique, and can be used in conjunction with
physical attacks as well if a user is skilled enough. And those
who can use physical strength to their advantage can actually
hit harder with this technique, as those who can use physical
force effectively can make this technique stronger with their
own strength, as well as training their ki to make this power
stronger. However, this is fired in a wave at opponents, and
while it does concussive damage, it can be blocked or dodged
like any other wave. Depending on the user, this could be
strong, but even if it is, opponents need only know how to
absorb the impact, usually with a shield or something to use for
cover to avoid the wave. Opponents can also sense this technique
if they can sense energy, despite it being invisible to the
naked eye.
Advanced Mortal Ki Manipulation: Dou Ki Manipulation:
~Most ki users never fully take the time to understand their ki
and the two sides that ki has. Advanced users learn this though,
and are able to focus one side of ki depedent on them. The two
sides of ki are Dou ki and Sei ki, which are like two sides of a
coin to each other, and everyone is stronger in one than the
other usually reflected by their personality. This power is the
power of Dou ki, which is used by advanced ki users who focus a
much more aggressive approach than users of Sei ki, and often
prefer offense over defense in battle as compared to the more
tactical style of Sei ki. Users of Dou ki learn to harness their
Dou ki, and learn to focus advanced ki that is neither positive
or negative, but more about power vs defense. Dou ki is purely
about power over defense, and those that use this are able to
generate this power to amplify their offensive and ki
amplification abilities. Those that use this are typically much
more aggressive fighters than those that use Sei ki, and this
almost always shows in their personality. Dou ki users gain
power from anger, and gain more power from anger than Sei ki
users do. As a result, Dou ki users are much stronger typically,
and have better offensive abilities. However, it is important to
note that users of Dou ki are able to be countered more easily
by Sei ki, which acts like Dou ki's opposite. It is also notable
that it is a forbidden taboo to try and combine Dou and Sei ki,
as it can destroy a person to attempt to combine the two
contradictory powers (However, there is a forbidden art that
focuses on it, but this art is forbidden for a reason). This art
is used as more of a neutral power, and is not good or evil like
people might think. This is a training type that was devised by
humans to use their ki to it's fullest and harness their full
selves in their combat style. Itto naturally learned this
technique to help him control his Oni Hanyo power.
Advanced Mortal Ki Manipulation: Dou Ki Anger Amplification:
~Users of Dou ki are able to use their anger and hatred to
amplify their Dou ki, in which the users of Dou ki focus this
into their advanced ki to make them much stronger. For Dou ki
users, anger seems to "explode" their power, and they gain a
large power boost when powering themselves on anger. This
amplification amps the user's ki amplification, and allows a
user to use advanced offensive abilities, as well as highly
enhanced ki amplification to allow the user to more easily use
their offensive power to overwhelm their opponent. Users of Dou
ki usually never stray from being offensive fighters, and are
usually more focused on overwhelming their opponents through
sheer force. As a result, those that use this ki amplification
can use this to focus their Dou ki more easily, and this allows
users to fight on a somewhat even playing field with other
advanced ki types like god ki and demon ki. It is worth noting
that Dou ki may be more powerful when it comes to offensive and
amplification power, but Dou ki is much harder on the body than
Sei ki is, and can take a heavy toll on the user if this ki is
overused. And as stated, it is important that one remembers not
to mix their Dou and Sei ki, which can do a lot of damage to the
body. Of course, as one might expect, this is only usable as
long as one has ki, and this style doesn't gain as much power
from calmness and peace like Sei ki users do. As such, Sei ki
users tend to be the counter to this power, since Sei ki users
are the opposites to Dou ki users.
Demon Ki User: Demon Ki Generation:
~Demon ki is the opposite of god ki, as one might expect, which
focuses more on an outward explosion of power using the body's
concentration to use ki amplification to an extreme, as well as
learning to tap into the dark energy in the body to create a ki
that is all about pure power. Demon ki is much stronger than
normal ki, and stronger than most god ki users due to demon ki's
nature being opposite of that of the more concentrated nature of
god ki. Demon ki is much more chaotic in nature, and is harder
to control than normal ki or god ki, but the benefits of
controlling or using this ki mean that one is able to use a ki
that is able to draw out the power of a user forcefully. This ki
is usually purple or black, or sometimes pink in nature, and is
the highest level of ki used in the demon realm. Unlike god ki,
there is no lower level training or higher level training limit,
as anyone can develop this skill and eventually use it as well
as demons. The only difference is that demons who use this are
able to generate this ki at less cost and are able to more
easily able to control this power, while mortal beings will not
be able to use this as easily and require more power to draw out
the dark energy in their bodies. This ki is far more powerful,
but wears out the body far faster than god ki would, as the body
has trouble handling the power of this ki. While demons can use
this ki longer than mortals, even demons will damage their
bodies the longer they use this ki. As such, it is best to use
this ki in short bursts, or only use it in desperate situations.
This can also only be used as long as the user still has ki, and
this ki is also more easily countered by god ki or mystic ki
(though god ki is usually the best thing to use against this
ki).
Demon Ki User: Demon Ki Overwhelming Pressure:
~In combination with the dark energy drawn from the body, and
the sheer power of the ki amplification used in demon ki, users
of demon ki have a very strong presence. Unlike users of god ki
who are not able to be sensed by others, demon ki users
overwhelm other ki users as their presence is such a strong
level that it can cause opponents significant discomfort. Users
of demon ki give off such a strong presence that those that can
sense energy, presences or sense ki are unable to fully
concentrate, and may even get headaches and light-headed from
trying to sense a demon ki user. In addition to the chaotic
nature of demon ki, this can be useful to demon ki users, as
they are able to throw off their opponents while using this
power. Users will find themselves unable to concentrate when
overwhelmed by this presence, and those that use things like
sensing presences or sensing spirits to predict opponents will
be even more affected and unable to use their ability to predict
opponents. Most users experience this differently, such as some
might get blurry vision, or some might be unable to concentrate
due to the pressure they sense, or some may get a headache that
keeps them from fighting at their full potential. However, it is
worth noting that this only affects those with weaker ki, and
those with strong enough presences can actually resist this
ability to a degree. Users can also avoid the effects of this by
cutting off their ability to sense presences completely, though
this is risky as users won't be able to sense anything while
they are cut off (assuming they can do so). As stated, this ki
is a very dangerous ki to use, as it is just as dangerous to the
user. While they are not affected by their own power sense, they
are affected by the ki's effect on the body that puts enormous
strain on the body. God ki is also much more easily able to
counter this ki, as god ki is demon ki's opposite. God ki users
are also less affected by this overwhelming presence, since
their presences are not too different, just much more calm.
Weapon Ki Styles:
Rasetsusen Style:
~Also known as the Swirling Blade Style, this style of ki user
is focused around mobility and slicing using momentum. Usually,
this style is focused around spinning attacks, where users learn
to use momentum to their advantage, focused by ki to amplify
one's cutting ability using a weapon. Users of this style have a
focused and more agile style, and are trained to use their
momentum alongside their ki for stronger and more agile attacks.
By using more speed in their attacks, they use ki to make up for
the slight lack of power and are able to fight using a balanced
style of weapon combat. Users of this style have developed a
number of techniques, with the most notable ones requiring a
spin to build momentum and then doing a powerful strike move
with a weapon that has focused ki. When combined with certain ki
movement abilities, this style becomes a very powerful style
that can keep someone in motion and can allow for extremely
quick reactions in battle and powerful strikes. The major
downside to this style though is that the spin usually gives
away the attack, making this style very predictable to those
that become familiar with the style. Another major downside is
that, while powerful, it is not as strong as some other weapon
styles, as this style was designed for mobility over strength.
This is usually used by more agile fighters, and isn't really
designed for power. However, this can be fixed with more refined
ki, as more refined ki users are able to focus stronger ki into
this attack style if they can land a hit. However, the
predictable nature of this style can be a hindrance at times
with smart opponents that figure out how this works, and the
power doesn't compare to much stronger styles.
Ryuenjin Style:
~Also known as the Fire Blade style, this style is focused
around the power of ki, and instead of focusing the ki into the
blade to make a more focused blade, the ki is focused through
physical power into a blazing state, where the ki looks almost
like a flame around the weapon. Users of this style focus their
ki for pure physical power, in which this can focus the power of
a weapon using ki to an extremely high level. This style is
focused around pushing the ki into a weapon and using it's max
ability, in a manner similar to demon ki, but instead is a more
focused style that easier to use than demon ki. This style is
also useful defensively, where users of this style are able to
defend against more powerful attacks by using the more powerful
ki as a way to dampen attacks used on users of this style. As
such, the defensive nature of this style also allows users to
use this blazing ki like a shield, where more experienced users
can sometimes even knock certain types of projectile attacks
back at the opponent by using the ki to prevent the attack from
making contact with them and their weapon, and using the more
powerful ki to reverse the attack. This ki style is heavily
favored by some faster ki users, as this style has been used to
help train some faster ki users in physical strength. The main
downside to this style is that the blazing ki has much more
weight to it than normal ki, and users of this style are slowed
significantly when using this style. However, users can
compensate for this with speed training, and as they get
stronger, they can offset this disadvantage. However, this style
is not as focused in speed as other styles, so users who use
this style tend to focus more on durability, defense and being
able to take hits so that they can keep in the fight and hit
back more often.
Normal Attack:
~Itto performs two slash attacks, does a kick attack in the
third combo and performs a downward slash attack as a final
attack move.

Physical Ki Based Combat:
Demon School Martial Arts:
~This style was originally devised as the counter to the Kami
style, as the two people who used these styles were two halves
of the same being. This style is similarly focused in precise
movement like the Kami style, but instead of being focused on
calmness, this style is focused purely in using that precise
movement to hit opponents with far more force. This style is
focused on utterly destroying opponents, which is why some more
advanced learners may go on to learn certain darker styles of
advanced ki arts. Just like the other styles, this typically
focuses on combining ki attacks with physical attacks, but this
style mostly focuses on how to bring the power out in a fighter.
Whether it's speed, strength or flexibility, this style focuses
on using the precise movements to a much more dangerous effect.
This style was designed to counter the Kami style of prediction
and calmness, meaning that this style was designed specifically
to counter those that use their combat senses and abilities to
predict someone's attacks, and also counters those that gain
their power from calmness, as this focuses the same amount of
power, but through precise movements. This style was originally
designed, like the Crane Style, to kill an opponent rather than
defeat them. However, this style was at some point redesigned to
allow a non-lethal substyle. Some advanced users of this can go
on to learn certain power-based advanced arts, like some more
dangerous people may go on to learn the Path of Asura combat
training, or some less who don't opt for a killing path may
learn Dou ki manipulation that uses this far more naturally.
This style, like the Crane style, is designed specifically to
overpower opponents and break through defenses. It's main
defense is the Kami style, which many have trained specifically
to fight this style as their main enemies due to this style
often attacking users of the Kami style.
Flying Ki Step:
~These are the combat styles of movement used with most of the
ki combat styles. Every good combat style requires a user to
have a way of moving around efficiently at it's base, so these
two techniques are often used. The first is the flying ki step,
sometimes called the Hienkyaku (Flying Swallow), uses ki to push
the body's movement, even while in midair. While most combat
skills would have limited use in the air, this combat style
allows a user to change their movement direction and speed with
their ki steps even if they are not on solid ground. This step
is usually very necessary for ki users, as it is usually among
one of the training they must use before they learn to fly,
which requires focusing ki to the feet. This style requires
using ki at the feet, but also pushing ki to other parts of the
body when required, such as focusing ki to the hand in order to
use it to grab an attack so a user can jump over it, using the
ki around the hand and arm to focus the movement. This style is
a very basic movement style that users can use to boost
themselves in battle, and advanced users learn to combine this
with the flight ki skill to allow them more mobility in airborne
combat, which is very useful for this skill since many ki users
will often fly during combat. Of course, this style's main
weakness is that the user has to be careful how much power they
put into this, as some less experienced users of this have
broken their legs trying to use too much ki in this particular
movement style. If not properly regulated, users can damage
their bodies, which is why this often requires heavy training
before using it effectively.
Demonic Combat:
~The user is able to incorporate demonic power into physical
combat.
Geokinetic Combat:
~The user can infuse earthen materials in their physical
attacks, covering their fists, feet or even body in earth (dirt,
stone, sand, metal, salt, crystal and even lava). Other
possibilities include shifting the earth beneath the user and/or
the opponent, or throwing earth telekinetically.
Ansatsuken Intuition:
~The user has innate knowledge of Ansatsuken, an umbrella term
for any martial arts style of fighting techniques developed with
the intention of slaying an opponent.
Shorinji Kempo:
~A Japanese martial art considered to be a modified version of
Shaolin Kung Fu that focus on offensive measures, but mostly
self-defense, and mental and health training.
Sumo Wrestling Intuition:
~Users have innate knowledge in sumo wrestling and is a
sufficient combatant due to their heavy body, high durability
and equally impressive physical strength and striking ability.
Although practiced as a sport, highly proficient users can use
it in combat.
Enhanced Swordsmanship:
~Users possess incredible proficiency and skill in wielding and
utilizing a sword, a bladed melee weapon intended for cutting or
thrusting that is longer than a knife or dagger, consisting of a
long blade attached to a hilt. Regardless, of the sword’s shape
or size, the user can wield it as if it were an extension of
their hand(s). They can also wield a sword with incredible
expertise in speed, power, and skill, allowing them to perform
feats such as stopping and deflecting bullets, decimating large
objects or areas, cutting through solid material such as steel,
and even hold back their strength to deal damage to their foes
without killing them.
The user can sword-fight with little or no effort, deliver
skillful strikes to weak points with great precision, and cut
only and exactly what they want. This ability also allows them
to become naturally skilled with multiple swords or any type of
sword regardless of shape or size to suit their needs in combat.
Their remarkably fast weapon control may allow them to bypass
obstacles in order to cut their intended target.
Club Proficiency:
~Users possess great proficiency, capabilities and knowledge in
many types of clubs, among the simplest of all weapons: a short
staff or stick, usually made of wood, wielded as a weapon, such
as a mace, baton, bludgeon, truncheon, cosh or nightstick
inflict heavy blunt force damage and/or trauma, making the user
very dangerous in close quarters combat. The user can also break
down structures and take out heavily armored enemies.
Danger Intuition:
~The user can sense nearing danger, acute danger, potential
immediate danger, or impending danger and sense unwanted or
hectic threats to their well-being and evade it. The intuition
usually regards themselves but may include their surroundings
(like a distant car-wreck, friends or strangers).
Passive Abilities:
Glowing Eyes:
~The user possesses eyes that glow which allows them to generate
light, sometimes allowing them to see in the dark clearly. Some
users' eyes vary in color while glowing. Users may or may not be
able to control the color of the glow.
In some cases, the eyes may glow involuntarily when the user
calls on another power. This can cause Glowing Eyes to act a
sort of limitation, tipping others off that they are or are
doing something supernatural. Glowing eyes also happen if the
user is under a mind control/possession/hypnosis state.
Unlike Light Vision, the user can't manifest their eye lights as
beams or blasts. Some users have eyes that glow when their
powers are active. User’s glowing eyes may have various colors,
including: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and etc.
Child Companionship:
~The users can form a sacred and powerful union with children,
and they both tend to protect and care for one another and
assist each other in multiple situations. Users can also share
an empowering friendship so that they draw strength from and
granting them the power to achieve anything and overcome
potential obstacle in their way. The bond they have with
children is purely sacred because of the pure love they have for
one another and use it to synchronize each other and gain a
variety of powers they use for themselves.
Child Caretaking Intuition:
~The user has knowledge over taking care of children, toddlers,
or babies. They know how and what to feed them while also
knowing how to quiet them down and discipline them. When they
are throwing a fit, they know how to deal with them. The user
also knows how to manage schedules.
Urban Intuition:
~User has intuition in regards to a urban areas, in other words,
street smarts. The user can effectively know their way around
any urban area, as well as know who to trust and who not to
trust, what areas are dangerous, etc.
Fighting Instinct:
~User possesses an innate aptitude for fighting in any combat by
overcoming limitations and adapt techniques or methods to ensure
victory. They adapt perfectly to all factors, achieving maximum
efficiency in an offense, defense, evasion, and countering,
ensuring optimal success as long as there is the slightest
chance. This enables a user to resist fear and pain, maximize
and surpass physical boundaries, utilize all of their skills in
the most efficient manner, and continuously fight while
unconscious. The user's instinct for battle allows them to pick
out strongest opponent, letting them know who exactly they need
to fight.
Predator Instinct:
~The user possesses predatory instincts, allowing them to become
masters of assassinating, hunting, manipulating, planning and
tracking. One with this ability instantly discern all factors of
any situation and manipulate them so its the most optimal and
favorable for them. Making them a master of manipulation,
pursuit, and capture. This includes sensing what will happen and
how adapt to it, what move a target will make, where they are
headed, and effectively manipulate the target, thus causing the
target to inevitably play right into the user's hands.
Nature Intuition:
~User has innate knowledge about nature and its forces, from its
makeup, what lives around it, what else is on it, the
civilizations (if any) that are near and anything else around
it. The user possesses innate knowledge of plants, whether they
are flowers, fruits, vegetables and whether or not they are
deadly, as well as animals, knowing and understanding them. The
user would also understand the inner workings of places like
volcanoes or what areas are safe or dangerous for people.
Survival Intuition:
~The user has innate knowledge and intuitive understanding in
survival and all skills applicable to survival, thus allowing
them to easily survive in any and all environments, actively
prepare for emergencies, including possible disruptions in
social or political order, on scales from local to
international. Survivalists often acquire emergency medical and
self-defense training, stockpile food and water, prepare to
become self-sufficient, and build structures (e.g., a survival
retreat or an underground shelter) that may help them survive a
catastrophe.
This also includes clusters of natural disasters, patterns of
apocalyptic planetary crisis, or "Earth Changes", anthropogenic
disasters, general collapse of society, financial disruption or
economic collapse, global pandemic, or widespread chaos or some
other unexplained apocalyptic event.
Ki Defense/Attack Spirit:
~Ki users learn among the very first things how to use their ki
for defense and attack, which leads to them learning how to use
a ki defense similar to other techniques like haki and Pai Zhua
attack spirits. Ki users with this ability are already defensive
once they learn how to use ki defense, but they are also able to
naturally attack people in different forms, such as those that
take elemental or intangible forms. Thanks to this, users of ki
learn to do this much more naturally than other energy users,
making them able to attack users. This means that certain form
shifting abilities to avoid damage aren't really of much use
against ki users unless the ki user is out of ki. As long as the
ki user has ki, this skill is a passive skill that all ki users
learn upon learning ki defense and can use it without having to
concentrate like most energy users. The only downside to this is
that this can only be used against those that have weaker energy
than the user, as stronger energy cannot be as easily broken.
The ki hardening and ki defensive techniques also don't allow
much change in the defensive nature since the techniques for ki
defense and hardening are specific techniques. However, this is
still useful against opponents who use things like elemental
forms, since ki is used for amplification of one's abilities at
all times.
Emotion Ki Strengthening:
~Depending on emotions, ki can be temporarily strengthened by
strong emotions of the ki user. There are two main emotions that
are normally used to do this which are reflected in the two
sides of ki, which are anger and calmness. While other emotions
can be used to power up ki, nothing matches the level that
calmness and anger have on ki, in which both can have unique
effects on ki and boost a ki user's abilities considerably based
on their emotions. Anger can temporarily increase power
immensely, intensifying speed and strength until the anger
subsides, which usually doesn't last too long, as the standard
anger reaction is around 8 seconds (meaning usually not more
than one or two combat rounds). Anger is best used as a rage, in
which users who use their anger or hatred to boost their power.
One doesn't have to be evil to use anger, as it is just a
reaction of ki to the emotion, since one side of ki responds
heavily to anger. Calmness is the other end of the spectrum
though, where the user doesn't gain power but control when they
have managed to calm their being. When calm and concentrated,
less ki is used, and defense and offense take less power, making
them more effective. Typically, calmness and peace are used to
help the body focus rather than using anger for an explosion of
power. For calmness, it is used to focus the body's ki and make
overall ki use and amplification more effective. Depending on
how emotions are used though, there are other emotions that can
provide specific amps, depending on the emotion and how it
interacts with ki. This can also relate to certain other special
kinds of ki, such as advanced ki training like god ki or demon
ki. This is more of a passive amplification, and only happens
when certain emotional conditions are present and strong enough
to affect a user's ki. This amplification is usually pretty
basic, unless used for advanced ki types, in which advanced ki
types often have unique effects when combined with this. Some
races, like Saiyans, even gain special boosts from this ability,
or may even gain new abilities from this.
Pure Energy Power Resistance:
~Every ki user, by training their ki, often gain resistances to
pure energy, usually supernatural energies that would be used
against them. Because of the use of energy that they use in
their ki hardening and defense, users of ki gain a passive
resistance to other supernatural pure energies. As such, this
grants them resistance to a lot of energy based attacks, and
some slight resistance to things like elemental effects.
Typically, users of ki are able to protect themselves and reduce
damage done to them to a degree thanks to their training. For
example, many ki users can move through many forms of fire
without suffering too many burns like most people, and they can
usually resist energy attacks. This comes with their training,
and is a passive ability as long as they have ki amplification
active. Usually, when it comes to ki, this protects against any
kind of energy as long as it is weaker than the ki one puts out.
Once someone encounters stronger energy, no matter the energy,
the energy can usually break one's ki and do normal damage.
However, this passive resistance to energy is very useful, and
allows users to use this resistance to their advantage if the
energy is below a certain level. However, this only works as
long as one has ki, and doesn't protect against aura breaker
techniques and weapons, and some energy based powers like magic
and elementals can break through this passive resistance much
more easily than energies like ki, aura, or even spirit energy.
This power does require ki, and once the user runs out, this
resistance stops. Users can build this resistance through
training, and improving their ability to generate ki, but
ultimately, this only grants resistance to energy at or below
the user's level of energy, as higher energies will break this
resistance.
Ki Enhanced Injury Recovery:
~While ki users don't have regeneration, they do recover much
more quickly than most normal people would. By controlling their
ki, a ki user's injuries heal up extremely fast, with small cuts
and bruises healing within an hour. Since ki is more about
defense, this doesn't grant regeneration, but it does speed up
the body's natural recovery, meaning it's not useful for things
like regrowing limbs or healing injuries someone wouldn't
normally be able to heal. This enhanced recovery cannot heal
fatal injuries quickly, with most ki users still not being able
to heal deadly injuries. This is a passive skill, which does
require the body to have life force to maintain it. While it may
sound intimidating that it uses life force, it uses a minimal
amount, and is what the body normally uses life force for, which
is to fix damage it can fix. If the user runs out of life force,
then this healing will stop, though running out of life force
usually means near death or death anyway, and usually only
reaches that point when one has fatal wounds. However, those
that master ki can use this to even slow their aging, since the
recovery can help heal the effects of aging. While no one can
age backwards with this power, those that use it can prevent
themselves from aging quickly if they want to. This ability can
however, be slightly interrupted by aura breaker weapons, as
aura breaker weapons can interrupt ki use and ki defense, and
advanced ki types may require conscious effort to use if one
wants to use them to heal more quickly, which some advanced
users can do (AKA something like genki can heal some ki users of
genki).
Ki Training and Enhancement:
~Like most energy users, ki users have to train their ki, which
is the only way to enhance their ki. Ki users have to train
their bodies to utilize more ki, and to use ki more effectively.
This requires ki users to train with their ki as much as they
train their bodies, as well as training their mind which
controls their ki. Through a combination of ki, mind and body
training, the user is able to grow their abilities to use ki.
Depending on the ki the person has, their ki can be stronger or
weak, depending on the person and their previous training and
abilities. Though having weak ki is not something that makes
someone weak, nor does having strong ki automatically make
someone strong. The only thing weak or strong ki determines is
how much of a passive amp the ki user gets in their abilities
through training, with stronger ki users getting a smaller
growth to their abilities through training. There is advantages
and disadvantages to both. The main one being that weaker ki
users grow in power more quickly as they train, but don't have
as much of an amp to their abilities to start with, while
stronger ki users gain more of an amp, but don't gain a lot of
power when they train once they reach a certain level. Both have
their advantages and disadvantages, and one is not necessarily
stronger or weaker than the other. Training one's ki is the only
real way to increase their ability to use ki and to decrease
cost of the ki they need for attacks and amps. Those with
natural ki affinities can grow more quickly, but overall, the
amount of ki one has to start with usually determines whether
they grow more quickly or require heavier training to grow. For
example, Saiyans usually are born with high power and ki, so
their growth is usually slower than some beings, and they
usually have to train harder at higher levels to gain any new
power, while humans at a lower level may be weak, but will grow
far more quickly.
Ki Inner Focus and Limit Sense:
~Through heavy training, ki users develop an inner sense of
their own power. Because this requires the mind as much as the
body, ki users usually have to concentrate inward to bring their
ki to the surface. As such, most ki users get a sense of their
own ki, often being able to sense things like when they're
getting close to unlocking new abilities through ki, or if
they're needing to put themselves in a life or death situation
to push them beyond their limits. Some more advanced users can
sense when new powers are trying to awaken, and some advanced
users can more easily draw these powers to the surface under the
right conditions. Because ki users often focus on drawing their
ki to the surface, this makes drawing out their hidden ki
abilities a bit easier depending on the person and their
abilities. However, this isn't always as it as it might sound,
as some ki abilities may require pushing past one's limits in a
life or death situation, or may require specific situations or
opponents to face before they can call that power forth. The
main use of this though, is that many ki users use this to
figure out when they hit a limit on their ki abilities and then
try to find ways to push past that limit so they can start
getting stronger again. In a sense, this allows ki users to grow
beyond many other energy users, but at the same time, requires
harsher training on the body at higher levels. Some users gain
this more effectively through things like the Kami style of ki
combat which focuses heavily on meditation, and the god ki style
which focus on internalizing ki. However, some more dangerous ki
users like the Path of Asura users may have their own ways of
forcing their ki abilities to the surface through their own
powerful pull of their ki, though usually at cost of danger of
destroying their bodies in the process. Each ki user has their
own methods of doing this, as some have other unknown methods as
well. For example, Namekians get stronger through meditation
rather than training, as they are more mind focused, or Saiyans
may require battling opponents stronger than them to awaken
certain abilities. Usually for most beings though, a simple
focus inward is usually what they use.
Ki Power Level Control and Power Suppression:
~Those that control ki are able to control their power level,
suppressing or even containing their ki. This lets a ki user
control how much power they put out, mostly so they can hold
back from overusing their ki on weaker opponents. This makes it
so they don't have to concentrate on holding back and helps them
hide their true power levels if they need to. This ability is
designed mostly for training, as ki users often use this to
weaken themselves in training so they can gain better training
from weakening themselves slightly, such as using power
restraints, and some races even using transformations to keep
themselves in a weaker state. However, this also has another use
in that those with this can learn to suppress their power level,
and hide their presence from people should they choose to. This
makes it so that those with sixth senses or other senses that
sense presences cannot sense a ki user when they are completely
suppressing their power level. They are also able to contain
their ki in their body, though this is mostly learned in god ki
training or sage ki training rather than normal ki, and can do
damage to the body if one doesn't do it properly. This also
doesn't do things like negate the sound one makes, or make them
invisible (unless they have techniques that do so). This is
usually more for training, and may require specific training
depending on how one wants to learn how to use this (like those
that use transformations to weaken their power for training may
have to have transformation abilities).
Enhanced Senses and Ki/Power Level Sense:
~Thanks to ki users amping their bodies with their ability to
use ki, this also enhances users' senses, with all of their
senses being enhanced. The exact enhancements are different for
each person, much like other races enhanced senses, as this is
never a constant upgrade. Some may gain enhanced sense of smell,
or highly enhanced sight. Though most ki users get a fairly
balanced upgrade to their normal senses. However, ki users also
gain a special sixth sense for sensing ki and power levels of
other creatures. This is very useful for sensing the life energy
of others and usually sensing how powerful they are (Unless
they're able to hide their true power through things like
transformations and other energy suppression techniques). This
works with almost every living things with a few exceptions. For
the most part, ki of living things can be sensed, with exception
of certain ki types like god ki and sage ki, which can only be
sensed by ki users with specific training on the ki and have
actually used the ki to know how it feels. This means that if
someone goes into a god ki transformation (like Super Saiyan
God) or into a sage ki mode (similar to sage mode chakra users
use), those without those kis cannot sense their presence
change. Ki users can not also sense ki from artificial life
forms unless they generate ki specifically in their bodies (like
cloned beings being able to generate ki, or robots with ki
generating cores), but most robots are not able to be sensed
since their energy cores work differently. Sensing life energy
can be difficult among certain situations, and things without
life usually can only be sensed if they have ki specifically as
not all energies can be sensed with a ki sense.
Ki Meditation Focused Telepathy:
~This ability lets a ki user communicate telepathically with
anyone they can connect to, using their spirit to connect to
others if they know where they are. Typically this power uses
their mind's focus, in which they use it to tune to a person if
they know where they are in order to communicate with them. This
lets them communicate with other people without having to speak,
with them being able to share thoughts directly with others.
However, usually the ki user has to know where the person is to
use this since they have to know where to connect to. However,
this doesn't apply to those who establish permanent connections,
such as connecting to other family members through some shared
ki that can be used to establish a permanent connection. This
lets ki users not only communicate with those they have a
permanent connect with, but can also tell them where they are at
any time should they require to find them or need to be summoned
to them (which they would normally need to use their ki sense to
track people). Those who are set up with permanent connections
have to accept the connection, and even then, they can sever it
if they choose to. Users without permanent connections must know
where the other person is, and must be able to telepathically
communicate.
Ki Meditation and Mind Protection:
~Through meditation, ki users are able to block out outside
influences, designed to be a meditation method to help ki users
focus their ki and train their mind. This helps ki users reduce
how much ki they need to use, and helps the ki user grow in
their ability to use ki as they learn the right meditation
methods. This also makes ki users immune to mind manipulation,
as this meditation creates a protection around the user's mind
and allows the user to learn to block out specific influences,
and works similarly to powers like disciplined mind or iron
will. Unlike some who can still enter someone's mind even if
they're forced out, it isn't possible to enter a ki user's mind
or affect their mind at all when this protection is active, as
some ki users even use their life force to create a specific
protection of ki around their mind. This uses the mind and the
body's life force to protect the mind, even if that's not the
actual purpose of this meditative training. This also lets the
user manipulate their own mind, concentrating and influencing
their own emotions using their life force in their mind, usually
to help them enter the right emotional states to use their ki.
Though they can't enter their own mind's inner world like some
mind manipulation users can, as this is not designed to enter
the mind's inner world, just control the mind in a basic way.
This also means that some psychic abilities can still affect
them, like ones that attack the nerves, and some users can fall
prey to illusion abilities if they are not trained to see
through illusions specifically.
Enhanced Combat and Ki Trained Physical Stats:
~A common ability amongst hanyō is inhuman strength, speed,
endurance, resilience and/or recuperation. A hanyō can
display any combination of these physical enhancements or the
lack thereof. As a Oni Hanyo, Itto is a powerhouse who is one of
the strongest hanyo with a great defense, endurance and
resilience. Although not the fastest, his speed and agility is
enough to keep up with many demigods, mythical creatures and
even other yokai. Despite his attitude, Itto is a dangerous
opponent who normally tries to overpower his opponents which is
combined with his demon ki.
Transformation(s):
Enhanced Demon Ki Mode:
~This is a power up ki form that Itto takes which surrounds him
with dark purple demon ki that flashes. This also makes Itto's
muscle mass increases slightly and his hair slightly spikier.
This form is similar to SS2, meaning the power output is far
greater, as speed, strength, and energy output all drastically
increase. This power makes him more vicious though he still
keeps his personality.
Hanyo Oni Form:
~This is the second form he takes along with his full yokai
form. Itto's hair and horns turns black, his teeth and
fingernails sharpen into claws and fangs, his skin turns crimson
red and his demon ki turns a dark purple color. His aura flares
but it also has a vibrating feeling which feels similar to an
earthquake. This is Itto's strongest form when he is facing
strong opponents and when he is through playing around or is
pushed to high emotions such as anger or stress. Of course, like
his other forms, this form will not last long if there isn't
enough ki or stamina to maintain it. Also, like his other forms,
he cannot stay in this form for too long and forcing it will put
a massive strain on his body.
Weaknesses:
Ki energy users still have race weaknesses of whatever they are
regardless of the ki they use. If one is something like an angel
or demon, they will still have typical angel or demon
weaknesses. Most ki 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. Ki users are no
different. Typically, ki healing can help recover from wounds,
but this is not a passive regeneration, meaning that one has to
concentrate in order to use it. Of course, ki energy users still
take damage from attacks just like any other creatures. Ki is
typically favored by people who start out weaker than stronger
users, as this art became known for it's ability to help someone
grow in both body and mind. This kind of training is usually
favored by humans, but is also used by some other races as well
that utilize ki as well. Typically, most mortals that use ki
still have the same weaknesses of whatever race they belong to,
even if they get enhanced defense using ki, and their ki
abilities and amplifications can only go so far.
Ki users are usually more easily countered by counter natures,
such as dou ki users would be more easily countered by sei ki
users. Typically, ki natures and abilities all have counter
abilities, even the advanced ki types. For example, demon ki is
countered by demon ki, and mystic ki is often countered by
maajin ki. Every nature and ability has some form of counter in
ki use, but also some other energies can also be used to counter
ki. For example, chi is a power very similar to ki, and can be
used differently, but ultimate can counter ki as well. Other
energies like spirit energy, aura, and chakra can also be used
to counter ki if one has strong enough energy. As such, almost
any energy can be used with certain exceptions. Certain
exceptions would include those that use life energy devouring,
who are able to devour life energy, making life energy attacks
on them pretty much useless. As long as one's energy is at a
certain level, one can find ways to counter ki attacks if one is
creative enough. For example, a chi barrier is just as effective
as a ki barrier, or a mana beam can be used to counter a ki
beam. Typically, techniques using ki are countered best by other
energies, and one doesn't have to be a ki user to understand the
natures of ki. While the dou ki and sei ki may seem confusing to
people used to talking about things like positive and negative
spirit energy or similar energies, dou and sei ki aren't too
difficult for people to understand and can lead to users finding
ways to counter these energy types. The hardest ones to counter
are the forbidden arts, which are still counterable if one knows
how they work.
Ki users can only use ki techniques and their ki abilities as
long as they have ki. Without it, none of their ki techniques
work, save the ones that use life force, which can kill the user
if they use too much of their life force. Running ki users out
of ki is the best way to fight them for most ki users if an
opponent doesn't have any real plan to break a ki user's ki
defense and amplification. Without ki, any ki user will be
without power, unless they have a way to replenish their ki.
Some users can replenish their ki, but often require specific
ways to do it. For example, sage ki users can replenish their
supply of sage ki, but require absorbing ki from nature to do
it, which takes concentration. Overall, without ki, a user will
lose all of their amplification and ability to use ki
techniques, often reducing them to their base stats as a being
unless they have other abilities to boost them. Most users are
severely weakened if they lose their ki, and will not be able to
fight at their peak efficiency. Usually once out of ki, users
usually are close to being out of stamina as well, which means
that once one runs out of ki, it is usually time to retreat for
use a life force technique (That will often risk the user's
life).
Typically, ki users have to rely on being stronger than other
energy users, as many of their defenses require the opponent to
be at their level or below. While fighting higher level
opponents can help them grow once they have pushed past their
limits, ki users are more easily taken down by people with
stronger energy than their ki. If they encounter a user with
stronger energy attacks, their attacks can break through one's
ki defense and amplification, or one can use other techniques
that ignore energy defense/amplification. There are a few
techniques and fighting styles some have developed for taking on
stronger opponents, but many of these require heavy burdens on
the body, such as the Crane School's Tri-Beam/Kikoho can be used
on stronger opponents to restrain them, or some other techniques
might be able to overpower stronger opponents at the cost of
some life energy. However, these techniques don't usually work
against certain situations, such as aura breaker weapons, which
work on any ki user, or dimension cutter attacks which can work
on any energy user that doesn't use similar distortion energies.
Because of this, ki users have to be careful when fighting
opponents stronger than them, or else they could get
overpowered.
Ki requires a strong body and a sound mind to use. If a user is
not balanced, or they cannot focus properly, the user may have
trouble focusing their ki, just like many energy types.
Typically, ki is drawn out by emotions, and if someone is unsure
of themselves or suffering emotions that counter their specific
natures (IE Dou ki users not being able to summon up strong
emotions), then this interferes with their natures. Not being
able to remain balanced is the biggest cause of weakened ki use,
whether it's because someone tries to use a ki nature they
aren't meant to (IE a dou ki user using sei ki), or a user just
not being able to keep themselves balance due to not being able
to commit their emotions properly to maintaining their balance.
Dou ki users rely on heavy emotions, which means that they have
to use these heavy emotions. Typically, weaker emotions result
from them doubting their abilities, or not being able to
concentrate a strong enough emotion to use their abilities. Sei
ki users require calmness, and if one can keep them from
focusing, whether through making them doubt themselves, or just
making the user not able to focus properly to use their own ki.
Typically, both sides of ki require specific ways to use their
ki, and interrupting it has the same effect, in that their ki
will either weaken, or in worse times, might even not work. This
means that users have to be careful and constantly train to keep
their mind and body properly ready to use their abilities, as
even their body not being in peak form could cause their ki to
not work properly if their bodies are too exhausted or damaged,
since the body generates ki in the first place.
Just like some other energies, drawing too much ki could risk
killing the user, or hurting them severely. It's bad enough that
trying to draw too much ki energy can drain a user completely,
but if one still continues to push beyond that point that one is
out of ki, then they will start to pull on their vital life
force, which can kill them if they use up their life force.
While life force is stronger than normal energy, it is also far
more dangerous to use. If a user runs out of life force, they
will usually die from it. While ki is about pushing one's limits
and drawing one's inward power outward, over-using ki can still
cause damage to the user. If a user overstrains their ki, they
can do damage to their body, and if they damage the parts of the
body that generate ki, their ability to generate ki could be put
at risk. Ki in the body uses the same points in the body as
chakra and chi, which all use chakra points usually. As such,
these points being damaged could damage the body's ability to
use energy if ki energy is not used properly, or is overstrained
on the body. Typically, this is very dangerous to any ki user,
as all ki users cannot generate ki attacks without chakra points
and a flow of ki in the body to release into creating ki
attacks.
His dark and demonic earth powers can be countered by light or
divine earth powers. His earthen materials can be weaken by
against erosion caused by water, ice or air. Although he is
immune to elemental attacks, variations to elemental powers such
as strong holy or light elemental attacks can still harm him.
In times of great fear or when their life is in danger, a
hanyō can be overwhelmed by their demonic blood, becoming a
pure-blooded demon. In this form, they benefit from increased
demonic powers and the extent of this enhancement is dependent
on the yōkai from which they are descended from. As a
hanyō, Itto is no exception which is worse for him due to
this oni ancestry. In this state, Itto is wild, cruel, and ruled
by a violent blood lust. In addition, he can not distinguish
friend and foe from each other, and attacks everything and
everyone; though he could recognize everyone during his first
transformation, implying his rational mind had yet to be
overwhelmed. It is even implied that these transformations are
getting worse, the more they happen. This condition can
apparently also be caused by magical items, such as the Mirror
of Life of Kaguya, or Sō'unga.
All hanyō are subject to certain times when they lose their
supernatural powers as yōkai and are rendered no stronger
than any ordinary human such as many hanyo lose their demonic
powers during the night of the new moon (which occurs once a
month) while some lose theirs during a solar eclipse. Itto is
one of the many hanyo who lose his powers during the new moon,
rendering him into a normal human. Luckily, he is able to still
fight and use his normal ki but not the way he normally does. He
also has to either stay at home or be around his friends and
allies when this happens so he'll have someone to watch his
back.
Hanyō are susceptible to the effects of spiritual power.
This is inclusive of mystical objects such as sacred arrows,
arrows of sealing, sutras, and the beads of subjugation.
As a hanyo oni, Itto is known for being naturally impulsive
which does get him into trouble at times. Not many people know
this but oni are highly allergic to beans. This allergy goes
back to the Japanese holiday Setsubun, where beans are believed
to have the ability to purify one's home and are thrown at
people disguised as oni to ward off evil spirits and bring in
good fortune for the upcoming year. For part-oni, they do not
suffer as much due to their physiology but many avoid beans as
much as they can, Itto especially.
Weapon(s):
Redhorn Stonethresher:
~Created by Smithy himself, this weapon is a powerful claymore
weapon that was once used by a powerful warrior king. This
claymore sword is a kind of weapon that is known for "sending
any monster packing with its tail between its legs". This
implies to be a energy breaker weapon which can match the energy
of any opponent and acts as a energy breaker weapon to use
against opponents whether it's a chi, mana, spirit, aura, etc.
This weapon is strong and durable enough to break though most
tough armor and defenses along with it being a weapon that can
bypass regeneration. This claymore is also a heavy weapon
despite it's appearance, due to it also being a two handed
weapon though powerhouses such as Itto can wield the weapon with
one hand. This weapon can be amplified by his ki which he can
use for more damage.
Weapon Transformation: Royal Descent: Behold, Itto the Evil!:
~This is a weapon transformation that the weapon gains due to
Itto's physiology. When he has enough demon ki, Itto lets out
his inner Raging Oni King, wielding his Oni King's Kanabo in
battle. This weapon has the same abilities the claymore has but
is doubled in offense due to it's crushing power. Of course,
this form is timed and only last as long as Itto's demon ki,
meaning that when his demon ki runs out, his kanabo reverts back
into a claymore.

Personality:
Despite appearing as "mean and overbearing", Itto is a kind soul
at heart, apart from trying to find strong opponents to fight at
every possible opportunity. He is not particularly intelligent,
but can put in the effort when asked of him. He is respected by
his gang and mostly liked by Inazuma City's people, especially
children, but is at odds with the Tenryou Commission despite his
mostly harmless antics and pranks.
Itto takes pride in his hanyo heritage and does not like those
who discriminate him or his kind. He appreciates the sacrifice
made by his blue hanyo oni brethren for ensuring that hybrids
and yokai could be accepted into human society in the present
day, even wanting to share the results with them as thanks for
their efforts. He always remembers the age-old pact between the
oni tribes and never uses his strength for malicious purposes,
refusing to terrorize humans and steal rewards that he hadn't
claimed legitimately. Due to this pride, he is extremely
competitive, although he knows when to concede.
Itto also has a habit of making names on the go and maintaining
his appearance no matter how severe the weather can be.
