---------------------------------------------------------
"Don't think I'm going to let you take the easy way out."
"I do NOT wanna be you today."
"Come on, loser. I thought you were suppose to be the best of
the best. What happened to making me get on my knees and beg for
forgiveness?"
~Genzo taunting a supernatural hunter.
"Death has always surrounded me, lady. Death follows me in the
dark, where there could be no light. No flames. In other words,
I can't avoid the old bastard forever. But the flames... they
have always been there. Waiting for me to set that baby ablaze."
~Genzo to Allegra when he became a part of Allegra's small
group.
"That's the thing that makes me sick about you punks. Anything
you can't control, you label as dangerous and try to get rid of
the 'threat'. You believe that you can control anything on this
Earth. The bird brains in the sky are no better along with every
other moron who thinks they can wreck sh*t up just because they
have the power to do so. Well, it stops now. It's time that
karma starts biting back. And I'll be happy to lend her a
hand~."
"That old man Magneto has a system. A system my friends and I
fully understand, loud and clear. And if these morons like those
Exiles punks would give it some thought, they'd see they're on
the wrong side. But hey, if they really wanna fight it, who am I
to complain? It just means I get to have more fun. So bring 'em
all on!"
"Onis and kitsunes are always at odds with each other. It's just
nature, even if we are just half breeds. I don't know why though
since you're not as bad as the damn dogs out there. Those guys
are the worst. Speaking of which, it bug me is that someone like
you is hanging out with losers like them. I'll tell you what,
you ain't gonna get much from them. They'll be a waste of your
time."
~Genzo to Itto when the two first met each other
Name:
Genzo "Kukan" Akama
Age:
Somewhere in his early 200s
Gender:
Male
Species:
Hanyō (Human/Demonic Yokai Hybrid)
Height:
5'11
Weight:
158 lbs
Family:
Grandmother: Tamamo no Mae (Alternate Universe; Sealed Away)
Father: Unnamed (Alternate Universe; Deceased)
Mother: Unnamed: Unnamed (Alternate Universe; Deceased)
Organization:
Former: Yakuza
Current: Brotherhood
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.
Genzo is an kitsune hanyo, due to his mother being a powerful
evil kitsune and his father being a human. His grandmother was
also part of the Nihon san dai yōkai, or "Great Three
Yōkai" of Japan alongside with Shuten dōji and
Ōtakemaru. This makes Genzo one of the most powerful hanyo
in Japan.
Kitsune Physiology:
~Users possess the traits, attributes, characteristics and/or
abilities of kitsune (Japanese: fox), a fox-spirit, who usually
gain their powers by living long and keep growing stronger as
they age: the more tails a kitsune has (they may have as many as
nine), the older, wiser, and more powerful it is. They achieve
this either through full or partial transformation into kitsune,
choosing to mimic certain aspects of kitsune, or simply already
being a kitsune in the first place. They are often tricksters,
with motives that vary from mischief to malevolence, but some
act as faithful guardians, friends, lovers, and even wives.
Stories depict them as intelligent beings and as possessing
magical abilities that increase with their age and wisdom. Their
powers include illusions, shapeshifting (particularly to human
form), possession, and especially the ability to use foxfire.
Chiko Physiology:
~Users of this ability can either mimic the traits of a chiko or
are one, in popular culture they are often referred to more
commonly as nogitsune and are the most powerful rank an evil
kitsune can achieve. They have a wide array of wicked powers at
their disposal and are much more cruel and prone to acts of
violence than other kitsune, for this reason they cannot achieve
higher ranks in kitsune society, the most powerful chiko to ever
manifest was the godlike monster known as Tamamo no Mae, who was
considered the "queen of evil kitsune" and one of Japan's
greatest threats, however she was also an exception to the rule
as most chiko are powerful but by no means transcendent, due to
their evil nature. Another example is Daji, one of the greatest
threats China has ever faced.
Genzo is a chiko type kitsune/human hybrid, or an Hanyo in
Shinto terms.
God/Goddess Birthmark:
~Like many Asian demigods and half demons, Genzo have a
particular type of birthmark that identifies them as what they
are and whose child they are. Genzo bares the symbol of his
mother on his upper left shoulder
(

Alcohol Immunity:
~The user is either immune to the effects of alcohol or can
tolerate extreme amounts of it without notable effects. This
includes direct nullification, speed of recovery from insobriety
and resistance to the development of alcoholism.
Fox Manipulation:
~The user is able to manipulate foxes.
Age Empowerment:
~The user can gain physical energy and exponential power as the
user gets older, they essentially do not need to work to
increase their power, as they become steadily stronger with each
year the user is alive. With every passing year, the user's body
and skills becomes more powerful and their abilities become even
more advanced as their power increases as part of a trait of
their physiology.
If the user is ageless, their body will stay in prime condition,
but would still become stronger while still retaining youth, due
to the user only needing to become older in terms of age to get
stronger.
Environmental Adaptation:
~User is able to survive and adapt to any environment and/or
condition, being able to tolerate wide range of temperatures and
levels of moisture, any amount/quality of sustenance, breathable
medium, etc. with little or no discomfort.
Temperature Regulation:
~The user can maintain different levels of their own body
temperature for extended periods of time, if not, indefinitely.
Some users may even be able to manipulate their own body
temperatures at will.
Size Manipulation (on self only):
~The user can manipulate the size of anything and everything,
from tiny to absolutely gigantic while retaining their physical
proportions, some may be able to alter targets density. Usually
strength and durability is proportional to the size assumed, but
target may gain increased abilities when growing or keep their
normal ones when shrinking.
Tail Manifestation:
~User has or is able to manifest tail (or more than one) that
may also protect from rear attacks or long range attacks. Genzo
normally summon up to two tails at will but the maximum amount
of tails he can summon both in and out of battle is six since he
hasn't reached up to nine yet.
Prehensile Tail:
~User has or can grow a prehensile tail adapted to be able to
grasp or hold objects. Fully prehensile tails can be used to
hold and manipulate objects, and in particular to aid arboreal
creatures in finding and eating food in the trees.
Night Empowerment:
~Users become stronger, faster, more durable, etc. during the
night, possibly unlocking abilities related to the affinity and
enhancing the existing powers. Some users may be able draw
sustenance from the night or even slow or stop aging.
Darkness Manipulation:
~Users can create, shape and manipulate darkness and shadows.
Darkness is mostly used to cloud everything into total darkness,
but can also be channeled to a variety of effects, both as an
absence of light and a solid substance: one can also control and
manipulate the beings that exist there, create and dispel
shields and areas of total darkness, create constructs and
weapons, teleport one's self through massive distances via
shadows, etc.
Note: Darkness Manipulation is essentially the same as Shadow
Manipulation, in the sense that all of its applications would be
identical. Hence why both powers are merged into one.
Bio-Darkness Manipulation:
~The user can channel their bio-energy field to create, shape,
and manipulate darkness and shadow, and use for many things such
as teleporting via darkened areas, use one's self as a living
portal of darkness, turn invisible in shadowed areas, draw
reserves of dark energy from obscure dimensions, to potentially
blacking out a target's senses.
Shadow Generation:
~The user can generate and project shadows and darkness which
absorb or nullifies light in the area.
Darkness Aura:
~The user can release and surround themselves in/with
darkness/shadow for defensive and/or offensive purposes,
possibly becoming almost untouchable. The aura may also give the
user enhanced physical capabilities such as speed, strength and
durability.
Darkness Empowerment:
~Users become stronger, faster, more durable, etc. when they
come in contact with darkness or shadow, possibly unlocking
abilities related to the affinity and enhancing the existing
powers. Some users may be able draw sustenance from the darkness
or even slow or stop aging.
Darkness Adaptation:
~User is able to survive and adapt to dark environments
(especially nighttime conditions), with a circadian cycle
programmed for nighttime activity, heightened senses to
compensate the absence of light, and perhaps darker coloration.
Night Vision:
~User has excellent night vision, the ability to see in low
light conditions or even total darkness. Whether by biological
or technological means, night vision is made possible by a
combination of two approaches: sufficient spectral range, and
sufficient intensity range.
Darkness Solidification:
~User can solidify or give solid-like properties to
darkness/shadows with the level of solidity going from loose
jelly to metal-like hardness or beyond.
Personal Darkness:
~The user can manipulate their own darkness and dark energy.
Using this ability, one can effectively manipulate one’s own
visibility by absorbing light, create a personalized field of
shade or wield it for specialized techniques like attacks and
defense.
Grim Darkness Manipulation:
~User can create, shape and manipulate
darkness/shadows/blackness 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 darkness/shadow. In essence, this
is about solely controlling the negative powers of
darkness/shadow.
Diabolic Darkness Manipulation:
~The users can generate and manipulate the mystical darkness of
hell, which can completely destroy anything. The color of the
darkness varies, but may be green, black, blue, white, etc,
Sometimes, the darkness isn't generated, but instead is summoned
from the planes of hell itself.
Unholy Darkness can cause excruciating pain upon contact, or
cause instant death, but can possibly be used for relatively
beneficial purposes, such as summoning spirits of the deceased
temporarily back to the world of living from Hell. Some users
can even use Reanimation or Resurrection via Summoning the
damned and/or Demons.
Dark Energy Manipulation:
~The user can create, shape and manipulate dark energy, usually
drawn from inter-dimensional or other similar sources. It can be
channeled to a variety of effects as an absence of light, a
solid, gaseous and/or liquid substance that can be
shaped/manifested in various ways.
Unlike Darkness Manipulation, which draws from the similar
source, dark energy focuses on direct, destructive and violently
outward directed aspects of the spectrum.
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.
Shadow Abilities:
Dark Capriccio:
~A beam of darkness is fired from the user's hands or weapon,
meant to be used as a drilling offensive attack that can pierce
through defenses. With greater skill, however, this ability can
be cast one-handed, allowing more than one beam to be fired,
which can then be employed as a whip of sorts, granting the user
greater versatility.
Zero Slash:
~The user utilizes Dark Capriccio as a whip to attack the enemy.
Dark Rondo:
~When cast, a mass of darkness largely consisting of
horror-stricken faces swirl around the user's hands or weapon,
becoming more and more condensed. The user can then fire the
gathered darkness on a wide scale or focused at an enemy.
Dark Delete:
~Several spheres of darkness are fired continuously from the
user's hands. The user can also summon the ghosts from under the
ground, heavily damaging the target from below.
Bind Snake:
~A darkness ability that appears in the form of a snake tattoo.
The snake winds its way around the target's body which restricts
their movement.
Darkness Stream:
~The user extends their hand forward, creating a multitude of
hands, composed of dark energy, that try to grab the target.
Suppression Arts:
~The user cloaks their hands in darkness to create additional
damage to their attacks.
Dark Deflect:
~By focusing on an incoming attack with their eye or from their
palm, the user is able to redirect all incoming attacks, causing
them to miss.
Darkness Tornado:
~The user charges dark energy and molds it into the shape of a
highly destructive tornado, damaging their intended target.
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 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.
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.
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:
Tenkuuha Style:
~Also known as the Aether Style, this style focuses on slicing
through attacks by concentrating ki into a weapon to pierce
through attacks. Typically, this is done through focusing the ki
to the weapon and then using that concentrated ki to split
almost any substance in a manner similar to the Shingetsu style
of swordsmanship, except that this style focuses more around
users who do this by focusing their ki, and the more refined
their ki is as they train, the stronger this style becomes. When
starting out, this may not seem like a strong style, but as a
user becomes more experienced and gain more refined ki, they are
able to attack with swifter and stronger strikes that have more
ability to pierce. Experienced users have even managed to cut
through some of the hardest materials in the world, like
adamantium and katchin (a metal known in the dragonball pantheon
as the strongest metal in the known universe that is an alien
metal). This style is all about focusing ki and concentrating it
for better piercing and attack, and users of this style are able
to concentrate enough to cut through shields and armor with
strong enough attacks if a user isn't using strong enough energy
defense. This is even able to cut through energy attacks and
defenses with enough concentration as well, in which users can
cut through things like barriers and energy walls. However, the
main disadvantage with this style is that it requires focus and
concentration, so users may have a hard time focusing certain
attacks if an opponent keeps them on the defensive, as this is a
more offensive style of ki for attacking and defending against
energy attacks more than defending against physical attacks.
Kurenjin Style:
~Also known as the Flying Shadow Blade style, this style focuses
on ki waves and attacking opponents from medium range where most
fighters wouldn't be able to attack. This style focuses ki from
weapons when attacking, and focuses them into a projectile
attack similar to those that use shockwave style attacks. Since
many fighting styles are unable to attack at longer range, this
style focuses on attacking from not only close range, but from
medium range by firing projectile attacks from the weapon. This
style works by focusing ki to the blade, and then using focus to
turn the ki in a wave that can be fired from the force of the
weapon. As the weapon uses the force of attack, the ki is
focused into the wave and creates a slashing wave of ki that can
attack an opponent at medium range. Users are able to focus the
physical force of their attacks into this style as projectiles
in this fashion, and can utilize this to transfer the force of
their attack across short distances. Masters of this style can
focus their attacks further, and can focus stronger attacks as
their combat style gets stronger. Because this style is focused
on transfering force rather than creating it though, the power
of this style is only as good as the weapon style of the user.
While this can be used pretty effectively, and deadly weapon
wielders can make this a very deadly style, the style requires
advanced weapon skill alongside advanced ki manipulation. This
is not as easy of a style to master as one might think, and
requires heavy training to master. While one would naturally
want to default to this style, it is not a style one can learn
until they have reached a high enough level, so most users
cannot start out with this style.
Other Combat Skills:
Swordsman Wavelength:
~This is a trick among swordsman, where cutting through objects
isn't about power, but concentration which is learned only by
experienced swordsman who have been near death at some point in
their life and learned to tune into this. By tuning into the
wavelength of objects, a swordsman is able to cut only what they
want to cut, such as cutting through a tree without cutting the
leafs falling from it. This technique lets the swordsman cut
through almost anything by tuning their attacks to the
wavelength of whatever it is they're trying to cut. They don't
have to know what the material is, only be able to process the
wavelength of the item or opponent. This lets them cut through
almost anything, assuming the opponent isn't also using this
power to block them. This can also cut through defensive energy
skills, such as walls or barriers. This swordsman technique
requires the user to be tuned to the world around them, and once
mastered, the swordsman can essentially cut through almost
anything with enough concentration. However, this obviously
doesn't do any damage by itself, simply being used to tune
attacks to their opponents. This technique can be countered
however, by simply changing the wavelength of the object or
person being attacked, such as using an energy amplification
technique to change the wavelength of the person. While the
sword would do some damage as it's still a sword slash (if it
hits), then the sword would do highly reduced damage.
Ricochet (Wavelength Manipulation):
~Thanks to a special technique, users are able to use their
connection to the swordsman wavelength to reflect attacks back
at opponents or at other opponents from their sword/weapon. This
power comes from being able to connect to their wavelength and
manipulating it so they can reflect an attack, which can be used
to reflect all manners of attacks, like energy attacks or simple
bullets and bombs. They are even able to reflect things like
cannonballs at opponents with this technique, and can even
reflect things that would normally be very fragile. This
technique essentially can bounce something back at an opponent
or just ricochet it off in a random direction. This is a very
advanced technique that only those who have trained in the
swordsman wavelength extensively can learn.
Form Negation Wavelength Manipulation:
~A technique that was developed as part of the wavelength
training, in which they can attack people who are either
intangible or in elemental form. This uses the user's ability to
tune to wavelengths to attack someone while they're in another
form, allowing them to essentially attack them and ignore their
form they're in to do damage to them directly. IE an opponent in
water form would take damage as though they were in their normal
form thanks to this technique. This technique is quite useful
for the user especially fighting supernaturals who use
intangibility or use elementals to avoid damage. Opponents can
counter this by manipulating their wavelengths so they don't
match the user's attack, but they have to know how the
wavelength power works which, for the most part, is something
only swordsman can tune their mind to. Of course, opponents can
still easily dodge this technique.
Energy Negation Wavelength Manipulation:
~Another technique that developed as part of the wavelength
training. This technique lets them dispel energy techniques
similar to an aura breaker. Thanks to this, they are able to use
sword slashes and their ability to use wavelengths to tune to a
wavelength and dispel it with a sword slash. This only works on
energy type attacks and defenses, and doesn't work on solid
objects or living beings. While they can use this to negate
energy, they cannot use this to simply kill someone in energy
form, as an energy form (Like an elemental form) works
differently and must be attacked using form negation rather than
energy negation. The most this can do to someone in elemental
form is negate some of the energy used to keep their body in
it's elemental or energy form.
Umbrakinetic Combat:
~The user can fuse manipulation of darkness with physical combat
to create a devastating form of martial arts. They can use both
direct and indirect attacks, utilizing every patch of darkness
or shadow available or create tools and weapons as needed.
Darkness Attacks:
~The user can release/use darkness/shadow to attack in various
shapes and/or intensities, either projected, used as a part of
melee attacks, etc.
Darkness Defense:
~The user possesses defensive skills that are enhanced by
dark-based powers, allowing them to block, parry, dodge, etc.
with darkness.
Katana Proficiency:
~Users, either innately or through training, is a master of
wielding katanas, a Japanese sword characterized by a curved,
single-edged blade with a circular or squared guard and long
grip to accommodate two hands. The user's proficiency may also
extend to similar Japanese swords such as the wakizashi,
chokutō, tachi, ninjatō, guntō and ōdachi.
Users can take on multiple opponents at once, deflecting
incoming physical attacks and countering with optimal skill and
finesse. With their supreme proficiency in wielding katanas,
they can not only wield multiple katanas (each being slightly
different than another) but also perform graceful and phenomenal
actions and feats, like cutting a bullet in half. With the
user's superior knowledge on katanas, they would be able to
possess an extremely deep understanding on them inside out,
knowing when exactly to strike to optimize their full potential
or how to prevent an attempt to break them in battle.
As katanas are Japanese swords, users would also be familiar or
extremely proficient in a plethora of Japanese swordsmanship
styles, the most famous being Iaijutsu, allowing them to switch
up their fighting when facing different combat situations to
make use of each style's strengths and weaknesses. More advanced
users would be able to accomplish more superhuman feats, like
slashing with so much force that it creates sharp wind and
shockwaves, or project, delay or manipulate their slashes and
slices with their katana. Advanced users would also be able to
wield more esoteric and supernatural variants of katanas, like
cursed, divine or magical versions that have been altered, or
even channel their own supernatural abilities through their
katana.
Throwing Knife Proficiency:
~The user is highly proficient in the use of throwing knives,
knives that are specially designed and weighted so that it can
be thrown effectively. Some varieties of knives lend themselves
to throwing, in which case the user's aim can be expected to be
nigh perfect, even in the middle of combat or when throwing
multiple weapons. In addition, this may allow the user to pin
targets down through their opponent's clothing or flesh,
preventing them from moving without actually killing them. Some
users can even throw non-throwing knives as easily as throwing
knives meant for throwing.
Kunai Proficiency:
~The user is highly proficient in the use of kunai, a Japanese
tool thought to be originally derived from the masonry trowel,
using it as either a throwing weapon, or for close combat.
Knife Proficiency:
~Users can either innately or through training, is a master of
knives, a tool or weapon with a cutting edge or blade, often
attached to a handle or hilt. They are able to wield small
blades with great proficiency and cunning as well as stealth;
concealing multiple knives on their person flawlessly, to be
retrieved at will in combat.
Ninjutsu Mastery:
~User possesses an innate understanding of Ninjutsu, the
historic style of martial arts, tactics, strategy, and espionage
of unconventional and guerrilla warfare. Contrary to popular
culture, real-life ninja were mainly spies, saboteurs, and
assassins that rarely appeared on the battlefield. Depending on
the school and source ninjutsu focuses on different disciplines.
Assassination Mastery:
~The user, either innately or through training, is a master of
many types and ways of assassination, able to dispatch their
victims without so much of a struggle or even having to be near
them and cover their tracks. They can intuitively assassinate by
any means and in the most effective ways possible, use anything
at hand to do so and, have no mental/emotional issues or moral
dilemmas either before, during or after the deed. The ways they
can do this range from something complex and finesse-based like
mastery of stealth, strategically and tactically planned
scenarios, expertise in martial arts, and proficiency with
weaponry to something simpler and more force-based like
herculean strength and lightning speed to overwhelm their
targets.
Users can perfectly and without a single flaw or mistake perform
any and every type of assassination there is, was, and will ever
be whenever they want with zero effort by themselves in a short
amount of time.
Stealth Mastery:
~The user, either innately or through training, is a master of
stealth, the act of moving cautiously and surreptitiously,
usually for hunting, espionage, assassination, evading being
tracked, etc. They can also use this knowledge to counter any
stealth-based attacks and/or surveillance. The user can move
around without leaving any trace, if they do leave behind a
trace such as broken sticks or disturbed leaves, to the less
observant eye, it would only be said to be wild animals.
Ambush Mastery:
~The user, either innately or through training, is a master of
conducting ambushes, long-established military tactics in which
combatants take advantage of concealment or the element of
surprise to attack unsuspecting enemy combatants from concealed
positions, such as among dense underbrush or behind hilltops.
They use any means necessary to do so, from luring enemies into
traps to striking from a concealed position.
Ansatsuken Mastery:
~The user, either innately or through training, is a master of
ansatsuken, any martial arts style or fighting technique that
has been developed with the purpose of killing an opponent.
Kyushojitsu:
~The user, either innately or through training, is a master of
kyushojitsu, a Japanese martial art centered around targeting
pressure points to manipulate the energy flow and neurological
processes in a way that it affects the whole body. The effects
can be pain, loss of equilibrium, loss of power, up to
unconsciousness. However, in the same way that knowledge can be
used to relieve different kinds of discomfort.
Iaijutsu Mastery:
~The user, either innately or through training, is a master of
iaijutsu, a combative quick-draw sword technique. This art of
drawing the Japanese sword, a katana, is one of the Japanese
koryū martial arts disciplines in the education of the
classical warrior (bushi). With a katana, the user can draw
their sword and cut their opponent in successful quick strikes
before resheathing their weapon.
Crane School Martial Arts:
~Starting out as a variation of the Turtle Style, this style
focuses on it's energy attacks to overpower and take down
opponents. This style focuses more on combining energy based ki
attacks that utilize ki, and makes this a much more offensive
style that was originally designed to break the defense of the
Turtle Style. Those that learn this will learn certain energy
beams that one can fire during combat, and learn stronger ki
attacks to use against opponents. There are certain techniques
that this style uses that was designed to break through
defensive fighting styles, as this was designed specifically for
that purpose by the creator of the fighting style. This style
used to focus more on killing opposition, in which the user was
taught how to strike pressure points in order to kill an
opponent more easily, but later users of the style modified it
so that it was less lethal, and more about beating an opponent
rather than killing. While either version of the style can be
learned, the old killing style is only used by those who favor
ki use for things like assassination, while the main style is
what's taught to new ki users. This style also manages to be
quite agile and fast, due to it being designed to be a killing
style originally. These days, some other defensive styles have
learned to combat this style, though most defensive styles can
be broken if they don't know how the Crane style works. One such
example is the Kami School Style of combat that is able to find
ways to predict and counter. Usually, more calm and collected
styles can eventually out-manuever this style, though it
typically takes knowing what one is up against, and how to
counter the offensive power of the style.
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.
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.
Samurai Shinobi:
~The user is a Samurai Shinobi, a warrior who is trained in
ninjutsu but also observes bushido. They know how to use the
stealthy techniques, tactics, and armaments of the ninja while
preserving the wisdom, restraint, and skills of the samurai, and
are skilled at both stealth and open fighting.
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 Kitsune Hanyo, Genzo is one of the strongest
hanyo with a great defense, endurance and resilience. Although
not the strongest, his strength and durability is enough to keep
up with many hybrids, mythical creatures and even other yokai.
Despite his attitude, Genzo is a dangerous opponent who normally
tries to overpower his opponents which is combined with his
demon ki.
Transformation(s):
Initial Kitsune Form(s):
~Genzo's grandmother is a powerful kitsune so it makes sense
that he would obtain the physical forms and abilities of a
kitsune. By simply tapping into his kitsune power, Genzo is
surrounded by a layer of red, wispy aura granting him a boost of
strength, speed and healing. With this, Genzo can generate
shockwaves through punches and roars. In this form, the Genzo's
body undergoes slight physical changes. When entering this form,
his eyes change color to sapphire blue which glows ominously,
plus his nails and canine teeth grow longer and sharper. Genzo's
hair also grows longer and messier. Genzo can also enter this
state without the aura visibly emanating from him, instead just
gaining the physical alterations.
First Version:
~Genzo forms a dense shroud of kitsune energy around him. The
shroud, a translucent red with bubbles of aura (reminiscent of
boiling liquid) forming all along it, provides a degree of
physical protection. The shroud vaguely resembles the kitsune;
paws of energy form around his hands and fox ears form on his
head. Because it's malleable, the shroud can extend beyond the
reach of him, often used to manifest tails that sprout from his
body, up to six. For each tail produced, Genzo gains an
incrementally greater boost to speed, strength, and power.
Although he doesn't completely loses himself in this form, Genzo
become more animalistic and aggressive. One advantage of this is
that the shroud can act on its own, responding to threats Genzo
may not be aware of.
Second Version (Stoic):
~Genzo manage to shift into a humanoid kitsune form with six
tails and fox ears. In this form, he is usually seen with his
kitsune mask as his power and physical stats increase. This form
is able to handle most supernatural creatures such as werebeast
lords to even angelic and demonic creatures. His body also
becomes more resistant of energy attacks as he has a layer of
dark chi energy coating him along with the natural abilities of
a kitsune. Genzo has full control of this form when he clears
his mind. This seem to be one of his most dangerous forms due to
him also using his Darkfire training to his full extent.
Second Version (Feral):
~Genzo shifts into a humanoid shape, granting him an edge in
battle without completely releasing the beast itself. Using the
the body as a sort of exoskeleton, a silver and dark red chi
energy coats him to the point that it looks like he generated
fur from his body along with six tails. Entering this version
creates a great deal of energy, producing craters beneath Genzo.
Strength, speed, and power are once again increased beyond the
levels of the previous forms, the shroud remains a reliable
defense against attacks, and other features, such as his dark
chi abilities. Genzo only enters this form when he is near death
or under high emotions such as anger or stress, which changes
him into a rampaging yokai, unable to tell friend from foe.
Although this boosts his power and physical stats to that of a
divine beast, this puts a heavy strain on his body, to the point
of him being immobile for a while when he reverts back to his
normal form.
Full Kitsune Form:
~Genzo is able to shift into a giant silver fox with six tails.
Nothing much about this form except that it's used to fight
giant beasts such as dragons and mythical birds (Genzo can fly).
Just like his stoic humanoid form, Genzo's body becomes more
resistant of physical attacks as he has a layer of dark chi
energy surrounding along with the natural abilities of an
kitsune. Genzo tries not to use this form too much due to many
reasons such as collateral damage or being a huge target for
enemies. In this form, Genzo still has his intelligence, being
able to talk to others.
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.
Genzo's darkness abilities can easily be countered by strong
light powers especially sacred (holy) darkness or divine light
as a counter.
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, Genzo is no exception which is worse for him due to
this chiko (evil kitsune) ancestry. In this state, Genzo is
feral, aggressive, 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. Genzo 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.
Kitsunes have a natural fear or hatred of dogs, meaning that
Genzo will feel uncomfortable around dogs to the point of him
trying to avoid them the best he can, especially since dogs can
detect his kitsune side. Dog demons such as inugami can also be
a problem for Genzo since they're natural enemies to kitsunes.
Weapons:
Crimson Katana:
~This indestructible divine slayer katana was made to be the
perfect extension to Genzo's kinetic powers. This blade can
store and release dark chi energy both for combat or an
emergency safe release. When spun fast enough with dark chi
energy in it, the blade can be used like a force field. This
sword can also cause destructive attacks toward opponents to the
point of breaking their defense. It's deadly to those without
regeneration but those with regeneration will feel like they're
getting stung by a Japanese hornet on steroids.
Kitsune Mask:
~A mask that he took from the DoD Weapons Division. This mask is
not only bulletproof and adaptable to any environment but it
also helps him control himself when he transforms.
Throwing Knives and Kunai:
~Throwing weapons that Genzo store as backup. These weapons are
stilled silver and varanium that he also stole from the DoD
Weapons Division.
Personality:
Genzo is cocky, smart, egocentric, and loud-mouthed, and always
acts in an aggressive way. He is a feisty spirit who never backs
down from a brawl and enjoys taunting his opponents in the
middle of battle. He treats his fights more like a fun
distraction than any serious means to grow stronger unless push
comes to shove. Although his fighting style is pretty aggressive
and savage, he is smarter and calculating than many believes due
to his reckless and cocky personality, which he use as an
advantage over his enemies. He also has a habit of making
nicknames for others, much to their annoyance.
