Kido In Brief.


Kido is one of the four basic Shinigami combat forms developed in times long past it has since became a primary fighting style of quite a few of the Shinigami corps. It has become so popular among some branches that its form and style have slipped out and other races (Such as Humans, Bounts and even some Hollow.) have mastered the Demon way.

Kidō is the technique that Shinigami (And others) use to focus their Spiritual Energy into magic spells of various powers. These spells serve a wide variety of uses such as healing, defense, or combat.

The Logic Behind Kido,


Each spell is graded on a scale from 1 to 99, the latter being the most powerful and the most difficult to perform. The scale is a measure of difficulty, as there can be multiple spells which share the same level. To use Kidō, a Shinigami must recite the specific incantation for the spell, which is often long and requires a few seconds to speak.

This weakness can be negated by Shinigami capable of using Eishōhaki ("Incantation Abandonment"), a technique that releases Kidō without a spirit chant. While it decreases the time needed to release the Kidō, it drastically weakens the spell. While anyone well versed in Kidō can use this technique, it is most effective when done by a skilled practitioner, otherwise the spell could utterly fail. The most skilled experts are capable of using this technique to amazing effect.
The power of a spell relies on the power of the user, as even a low-level spell can be utterly devastating when utilized by a high-class Shinigami.

Kidō can also be used for practical purposes as well. For example, some have demonstrated that a kidō spell can be used to light a dark hallway if the spell is tweaked in the right way.

The Art's of Kido,


There are three main types of Kidō: binding spells, destruction spells, and healing spells.

  • Bakudō ("Way of Binding"): These are a broad category of defensive spells which block/repel attacks or freezes enemies in place.

  • Hadō ("Way of Destruction"): These are offensive spells which harm an enemy or cause damage to objects.

  • Healing spells: These do not have known names, numbers, or incantations to cast, and simply heal the target. As the user holds his/her hands above the patient's wounds, his/her palms glow with green spiritual energy to facilitate healing. The mechanics of this healing technique involves the replenishment of the patient's Reiatsu first, before the body's Reiatsu works with the healer's Reiatsu in order to heal the patient's body


Kido in Combat,


Though Kidō is commonly used by Shinigami in combat, it has several weaknesses that make it difficult to use for that purpose. All of the spells have fairly long incantations and require concentration; because of this, the person using the Kidō leaves themselves open to attack during the duration of the incantation.

In addition, if an opponent is familiar with Kidō, there is the possibility of them identifying the spell by its incantation before it can even be used. However, highly skilled Kidō users can use various techniques to counter these weaknesses, such as Eishōhaki, Kōjutsu Eishō and Nijū Eishō ("Double Incantation"), which involves mixing the incantations of two or more Kidō spells together to save time and confuse ones' opponent.

A rarer use of Kidō is mixing various spells (such as Bakudō and Hadō together) for unique effects, which is the mark of a skilled user.
Kidō is commonly seen used in instances of surprise attacks, rather then all-out assaults, being most effective when one's opponent doesn't see it coming. Kidō is also usable with just the spell name and no incantation or spell number.
Kidō is not something to be measured in combat on a special system, this is mostly based on a situational battles and from person to person, just use your better judgment and based on how much Reiatsu you have.

Kidō System,


In the Souls Rebirth forum we strongly believe an open a free RPing forum, therefore we have mixed the Reiatsu system with the Kidō; the system is quite simple, it is directly relevant, for 2 +'s in Reiatsu you gain exactly that many +'s in Kido, for every 2 +'s in Kido you unlock 10 levels of Kido, breaking down something like this.

02 +: 01-10 Kidō
04 +: 11-20 Kidō
06 +: 21-30 Kidō
08 +: 31-40 Kidō
10 +: 41-50 Kidō
12 +: 51-60 Kidō
14 +: 61-70 Kidō
16 +: 71-80 Kidō
18 +: 81-90 Kidō
19 +: 91-99 Kidō





To obtain Kidō one must post a request to gain access to it, whereupon acceptance the person must then gain 10 points in training to gain access to Kido - graded by a staff member (doesn't have to be in one post but can be spread over multiple until completed. If you post more than once though before a grading it'll still only count for one post). After the training has been completed one may begin learning kido...so long as you have the appropriate Kido NPC teacher to teach it to you - requiring a staff member to play (there will be one per race) OR another RPC who knows the desired Kido. After that, to learn a kido takes one post, just put some effort into it instead of spitting out a piece of crud, and then you can have the learned kido added to your profile. Flashbacks are acceptable.

Include plot idea when requesting to gain access to Kido: it helps make it sound interesting and worth while to accept.
