Light Offensive || Taker's Flame*
A close-quarters grab attack, Tsuya will coat the inside of a hand with the god-killing white and black flame before teleporting behind a victim. Aiming to grip them by a shoulder or arm. This is hardly to control them with a proper grapple but instead, transfer the fire to them. The fire is known to burn away spiritual energies, but it can also give someone a bounty of energy with such a specific technique, transferring the victim's life force into strength for another as the embers float away to another.
Power: 20%
KP Cost: 2 KP
Variants: Inspiring, +10% Power x 2

Light Defensive || Immaterial Step
Tsuya performs a quick evasive backstep, her form shimmering for just a moment before she fades into a dark silhouette. Then she disappears altogether at that instant.

Variants: Evasive, +10% Power

Light Defensive || Royal Release

Light Defensive || Godless Stance
A defensive stance that raises the ivory blade of release overhead, igniting it with black and white flame.

The flames burn away energy as the proper use of sword weight aids in the redirection.

Variants: +10% Power x 3

Medium Offensive || Judgement Cut
Brandishing the Ivory blade, Tsuya gets into a crouching stance and readies herself. Drawing the sword into its sheath for a moment.

Brandishing the Ebony blade, Tsuya rushes forth and ignites the blade in the black and white flame by riding a hand on the blunt back end.

Heavy Sparking Offensive || Godslaying Twilight
Both twinned swords are held upwards parallel to one another, representing a clockface at midnight as they both ignite with a black and white flame. The Ebony blade is brought around as a ticking hand, making a full clockwise circle in front of Tsuya as she summons forth harrowing twilight energy in the air above. The landscape darkens as white and black miasma similar to the blades' fills the air, choking out the life that lingers. When the black blade finishes the round turn and the face of this metaphorical clock hits twelve again, Tsuya vanishes and aims a double-cross slash at one foe, aiming to cut them open with the intent of both blades.
Power: 100%
KP Cost: 6 KP
MP Cost: 5 MP
Variants: Quake+, Piercing, +10% Power x 5


Support || Spirit Release (MAX-Power)
Tsuya's presence shatters the metaphysical, throwing off the energy around her as a clear white aura. The energy put into her attacks are exponential, but control is hard to temper. Unsustainable.
MP Cost: 1 MP per turn active. Cannot regain MP while active.
Variants: All Techniques +10%. Unable to use Evasive or Escape Techniques. Can be ended at the end of a post, except the one it's activated on.

Support || Tear the Beyond (Solar Flare)
Tapping into the releasing powers of her Ivory blade, Tsuya tears open a rip in the fabric of space with two swipes in a simple criss-cross motion. Perfect for small getaways as the grey portal can lead them anywhere. Usually, from danger itself. Or straight into it on other occasions.
Power: 60%80% AntiSense
KP Cost: 2 KP
Variants: This allows you to attempt to escape any thread or travel between splits in an Action Thread more safely. This technique valued at 60% of your total power and requires 2 KP to use. In order to stop you, a player must use an attack that is superior in power to your Solar Flare. You cannot undo your escape via Solar Flare if you are successful, but you can use KP to defend if it is overcome

Support || One Become Two (Dual Multiform)*
A spirit possessing another form, Tsuya has access to calling upon parts of the other souls linked to her and her artifacts by lending them part of her own life force. Griselda, Usumidori, and nameless warriors trapped in her blade can be summoned like this regularly.
Variants: You split into two copies, dividing your power evenly between yourself and a single copy (50% each). Multiforms operate as their own fighters- they manage KP, MP, and use techniques as if they were two separate people! They can merge back together after responding defensively to any attacks your foe may have thrown, but take the damage from the most damaged copy and take KP and MP from the copies with the least in each stat. One-use techniques, items, or traits can only be used once per thread regardless of which copy uses the technique.

Support || One Become Three (Tri Multiform)*
A spirit possessing another form, Tsuya has access to calling upon parts of the other souls linked to her and her artifacts by lending them part of her own life force. Griselda, Usumidori, and nameless warriors trapped in her blade can be summoned like this regularly.
Variants: You split into three copies, dividing your power evenly between yourself and two copies (33% each). Multiforms operate as their own fighters- they manage KP, MP, and use techniques as if they were two separate people! They can merge back together after responding defensively to any attacks your foe may have thrown, but take the damage from the most damaged copy and take KP and MP from the copies with the least in each stat. One-use techniques, items, or traits can only be used once per thread regardless of which copy uses the technique.


Utility Technique || Ki Sensing
A technique that allows you to sense, measure, and differentiate the ki signatures of ki attacks and all living beings without the Anti-Sense trait. Higher ki signatures are easier to sense and can be sensed at greater distances than lower ones. This technique is passive and does not use KP.

Utility Technique || Ki Suppression'
Skilled control over your ki allows you to suppress your Power Level to a minimum of 1 PL to either hide or use this lower PL to fight characters weaker than your full strength on even footing. This technique is passive and does not require KP use.

Utility Technique || Planetary Telepathy'
Allows use of telepathic communication between nearby or familiar characters on the same planet as yourself, letting you and your friends always converse internally. This technique is passive and does not require KP.

Utility Technique || Magic Materialization'
The Demon Prince Usumidori is very proficient in conjuring up matter from his reservoir of demonic energy. His titular black-bladed katana is typically the first thing to be conjured into existence, but he can make anything he puts his mind to. Should he have the energy for it.

Utility Technique || Blade of Containment: Usumidori'
A dark, elongated katana forged entirely out of ancient Katchin metal. An impossibly sharp edge cut into one side of this tough material. An ancient culture has embued it with the seal of containment, carving more impossible etches in gold on the side of the blade spelling it out clearly as "Containment". Within the blade holds a pocket dimension that can trap objects and people within at the wielder's behest, should they be within reach. The largest resident, Usumidori, has filled the void within in a never-ending shadow, making it his domain to control. This technique can store uncontrolled items and people of volumes many times larger than the blade itself. With OOC permission, it can even stow away other players' belongings and seal characters within. In battle or outside.

Utility Technique || Blade of Release: Kusanagi'
A light, white katana forged entirely out of solidified Godslaying Flames. An impossibly sharp edge cut into one side of this tough material. An ancient culture has embued it with the seal of release, carving more impossible etches in gold on the side of the blade spelling it out clearly as "Release". Within the blade holds clean, unnatural destructive magic. Made in spite of the gods and outside their will. This can disintegrate non-living materials, working as an inverse Magic Materialization with the same stipulations. The exception is that it requires OOC permission to affect other player characters' creations/items/etc.

Utility Technique || Godslaying Flames: True Death'
Unnatural magic created by an old sect of mortals against the gods' wishes. True Death's flames were used in many rites to destroy the body and spirit as one, said to permanently end the existence of most mortals indefinitely. Outside these legends, the burning white and black flame latches onto spiritual energy, being fueled by it in much the same way normal flames do. This can range from bodies, to spiritual auras, to any wide range of spirit manifestation the universe may conjure forth. OOC, this can be used to flavor items as a sapping or burning effect.

Utility Technique || Flight
Titular flight using ki.
