| Subject: The Sight (Unaru's power) Sat Oct 23, 2010 2:40 pm | |
| Name: The Sight Appearance: None Equipment: Thor the Raven.Thor is in essence, ordinary raven; there is nothing physically or spiritedly different to him that any would be able to tell. He is a trained bird to be used with one of its powers, but because he has been influenced by the power of The Sight, he can understand human speech but can’t talk; his voice is still that of a raven and will sound as such, only other’s who have the power of The Sight will br abel to understand him. He dies have a heighten intelligence that your everyday bird, but that comes from him being able to be taught in a language he understands. He has no Reiatsu signal of his own; he can barely see spirits by himself. If anything happened to Thor (ie he died) Unaru would have to train a new bird. Ability:The Sight carries a few support based abilities. Going to break them down, so they are easier to read/understand. Some abilities have a dual, or two sided nature to them, like using a knife to cut or stab, again this will be explained in full. Seeing through the eyes of birds: Unaru can, in essence, do this with any avian as long as it’s of a living nature (ie avian that has become pluss or hollows will not work) yet he needs someone he can rely on, someone that won’t freak out and panic when the ability takes hold. When activated Unaru transfers his conscious into the bird, from that point he will see and feel anything that the avian experiences. His body falls into a state of sleep and appears to be dreaming, legs and arms twitching now and again, he can be snapped out of this state by outside stimulus (ie, being shaken). The moment the bird becomes ‘possessed’ by Unaru it gains a very, very minuet reiatsu signal, along with an odd ‘air’ around it that make even normal humans feel like they are being watched. In game terms: Unaru can simply use Thor to scout other areas (threads) like he was there himself; however he can only go to places within the human world, and not leave the landmass, Thor needs to be next to Unaru for this skill to be activated, he can however be anywhere when it ends, when Unaru returns to his own body Thor will automatically turn around and head home. Duration: This skill only normally runs for a few hours, mostly because of the danger and the needs of Unaru’s body. Seeing Visions in Water: This is arguably, the main ability of The Sight, Unaru can look into any body of water, rivers, bird baths, lakes and so on, even heavy rain has been known to set it off and catch glimpse of the past, present and future. This can be one of the most unreliable skills of The Sight however, sometimes going too far back into the past or showing the past of a different person that Unaru wished to view, the same with the future, he could want to see tomorrow but could end up witnessing events that would not unfold for another millennia. In game terms: Unaru can glimpse at a thread that has ended (Past) or one that’s going on (present) and take the information gained by two consecutive posts (will put what thread and posts in my post), however this information will most likely be taken out of context, and the quality of the vision will be poor, seeing as it is sight based so he will not hear anything and will generally be viewing everything in third person. The future other than mainly foiling ambushes and traps, is flavour, as nothing is set in stone and sometimes knowing the future will cause it to happen. Healing/Harming: This is the main ability that has dual effect, mainly due to the way it works on one’s body. It heals by increasing the flow of life (Reiatsu) around the body and accelerating their natural healing abilities, it also can be used to calm someone who is suffering from anxiety, fear, despair or even anger. However when using this Unaru needs to protect his own mind, he must keep positive and calm for healing to work, and when he is healing someone’s ‘feelings’ there is always a chance that the negative feelings will seep into Unaru’s mind, anger and hate have a higher chance of infecting him than someone who is just a bit down in the dumps. However if he reaches out with this power when he is full of hate or anger he will cause harm to others, this happens by the energy flow in one’s body being made chaotic by Unaru’s influence, this then causes the body to ‘burn itself out’ in a way, like a wire frying from the power being but through it, this can cause varying effects depending on where he focuses it, from crippling arthritis to Blindness. Whilst theses results are permanent on normal humans, supernatural beings (hollows, Shinigami est) can recover from them. In Game terms: Regardless if he is healing or trying to harm he needs to physically touch them. Healing ‘feelings’ only takes as instant to do for stuff like despair of panic, but he needs place his middle and index finger on their forehead, but this is not a permanent fix, if the person dwells on negative things or remain in a stressful environment the feeling will come back, for more powerful emotions like Hate and Anger he can put his hand over their heart to try and quill the feeling, but with such wild and raging emotions he has to draw some into himself. The effectiveness of this can vary, differing from person to person, but the max it can take is up to 5 posts, Unaru having to keep connected with the person throughout. Healing wounds again differs with the severity, burses and small cuts will only take one post, where broken bones and internal bleeding could take up to 7. To harm Unaru has to lay his hand near the area he wishes to effect, on an arm if he wants to cripple the elbow, head if he wishes to blind and so on, when hit there is a two post delay before the effects kick in during this time they can ‘push out’ Unaru’s influence with any healing abilities, or simply pushing it out with their own Reiatsu, if they fail to do that then the effect takes hold, causing arthritis in a join or blinding an eye, said effect lasts untilled healed either by regeneration or any other healing abilities. To stop this being too OP he can’t affect internal organs like the brain and heart. Advanced Human abilities: Locked at this point in time - Spoiler:
Appearance: None
Ability:
Summon The Seekers: The Seekers are ghosts, not plus’ or hollows, but ghosts and phantoms as you would see them in moves, beings with partly decayed bodies composed of a silvery mist with burning red eyes, yet their faces are always recognisable by the ones that see them. The Seekers can’t be hurt, but nor can they harm anything, however whoever sees them may find themselves falling into a blind panic or being overcome by fear, even ‘weak minded’ creatures may well be driven insane by them. The Seekers work like an illusion playing on the memories of whoever sees them, the faces who they believe are dead will appear on the phantoms, this can be anyone that they knew well, or simply saw their photo on a news report. Whilst they bring fear and confusion where ever they go, their main purpose is to ‘make way’ for the sight as it where, if anyone touches them they become more vulnerable to the powers of The Sight, like a mental debuff. In Game terms: 10 seekers are called forth and last for 5 turns, they don’t do damage nor can they be harmed. They move roughly in the direction that Unaru commands, however they move as a mass and he can’t command each one in particular, they seem to project a sense of fear and dread but this effect each person differently, when they come in contact with someone that person will find their mental defences weakened, leaving them slightly more vulnerable to the other powers, making them a harder to resist or dispel with their own willpower.
Strong as The Wind: This is the highest power of The Sight that Unaru’s families has known too date, the power to make The Sight as physical thing. With the mastery of this power the user can send out a shockwave in any direction, they can also control the size of the shockwave as well, making it as small or as large as they wish, said shockwave is clearly visible to anyone who has spiritual power. In game terms: Every other one of Unaru’s posts he can fire off a shockwave, that despite the name is not a wind element attack. Whilst they do minimal damage the main aspect of them is too knock away/down potential threats, be them people or attacks (more of a defensive shockwave than something meant to destroy), naturally the bigger the shockwave the more of his power it’s going to use up.
Compelling Voice: This is the one power of The Sight that has been blown up by old stories, it is written as brainwashing, to control every movement of their target, but this is far from the truth. Using his powers Unaru can add a weight to his words, making them seems more compelling and more likely that they will agree with him or take part with his requests. Unaru can’t get a person to act against their nature, he can’t get someone to kill themselves or betray someone unless they already held feeling of suicide or betrayal in their hart. In game terms: Once every 3 posts Unaru can take 5 words of speech more compelling, said words will be highlighted in green and underlined. Like everything mental it has varying degrees of success on different people, having a better chance of success if they are not hostile towards Unaru. This skill is designed to be uses to ‘talk down’ stressful/hostile situations or, if needed, to give him a upper hand as an ambassador
