Character Name: Isidora Circe
Profile Link: Cunning Witch

Technique Name: Hocus Pocus!
Description: A specialized hex created by Isidora that normally contains a rather comedic effect when cast. By throwing her hands upwards with her palms facing the opponent, she exclaims "Hocus Pocus!" into the air, causing a blast of magical energy to erupt around the opponent's position, and obscure them from view. Simple seconds later, the magical energy will clear and bring the opponent back into view, now in the form of nothing more then a small green frog. While they are in this form, the opponent is completely immune to all forms of damage. They cannot be harmed, or placed into a position of harm in any way, and will stay in the form of the frog for only the following post that this technique is cast. The only real use for this technique, is the embarrassment factor. When the opponent is turned into a frog, they will fall to the ground surrounded by any article of clothing, or weapon they may be holding. This technique can be used for a quick get-away, or to stall a battle. Although Isidora normally just uses it as a fun way to play around with his opponent during battle, or to embarrass someone she doesn't like, in an overly public way.

Technique Effect: Turns target into a frog. They become immune to damage, and cannot be placed into harms way. Lasts until the beginning of Isidora's following post.

Spirit+A vs Opponent's Reaction

Cost: A x25 Chakra

Technique Name: Omen 001: Chakra Dissipation
Description: A dark hex developed by Isidora to brandish onto an enemy or target that has seriously aggravated her. After speaking the specialized incantation for the current target within her sight, she releases a surge of sinister energy around her. When effected by this energy, the target may notice an increased drain of their chakra when using techniques or simply over time in general, as this curse is placed to quickly deal with her opponent's ability to fight.
Technique Effect: Spirit +B vs Opponent's DEF
If successful, the opponent is drained Spirit+A x75 chakra every post, as well as any time they use their chakra for jutsu or other effects. This chakra vanishes into the air, and is not absorbed in any way.

Cost: A+B x25 Chakra, per post active.

Character Name: Thanatos Rasui
Profile Link: The Dreaming Black

Technique Name: The Black: Waking Nightmare
Description: Thanatos has adapted to an all new variation of The Black, when compared to the predecessors of his family including his own father. This new variation appears to consist more solidly within the confines of a dream like state that some may consider to be like that of a Genjutsu Realm. This Waking Nightmare is a bleed out effect of Thanatos' own subconscious when under the effects of The Black. While Waking Nightmare is active, the world around Thanatos quickly begins to escalate into a dark and twisted version of itself. Not actually changing as far as layout, but instead becoming darker, ominous and exactly the way someone would perceive the world should they be stuck in a nightmare while asleep. This Waking Nightmare places those around him into a semi-dream like state where they are effected by the effects of all of Thanatos' dream based jutsu while not being entirely asleep themselves.
Technique Effect: 1/2 Mile in Range
Anyone who does not succeed in Spirit+A vs Perception check, finds themselves locked within the Waking Nightmare.
Waking Nightmare is only capable of being activated while Thanatos is under The Black's influence.

Cost: A x25 Chakra, per turn active.

Approved - Ryuu

Technique Name: The Black: Walking Knightmare
Description: Through manipulation of the dream realms that are at Thanatos' disposal, he has come to learn that The Black has generated an avatar of what appears to be ill intent and wickedness into the dream realms when it is active. A knight themed creation of chaos will spawn up from Thanatos' very shadow, appearing to actually consume his shadow in the process. It will then charge forth to begin locking the opponent into melee combat. This knight is capable of using any taijutsu and Kenjutsu techniques that Thanatos possesses, while taking up Thanatos' actions to do so. It functions as a sinister replacement for himself during physical confrontations, and only seems to become more and more frightening the longer the opponent fights against it.
Technique Effect: Creates a Knight themed NPC to fight in Thanatos' stead. The Knight and Thanatos' health are connected, as well as their chakra pools.
The Knights Stats are:
Speed +C
Strength +A
Defense +B
Intelligence, Spirit and Resolve are identical to Thanatos'.

While active, the Knight uses Thanatos' perception, but it's own speed for Reaction.
It can only be active, while under The Black's Influence.
Cost: A+B+C x25 Chakra

Character Name: Tiamat Doragon
Profile Link: The Dragon Swordswoman

Technique Name: Draconic Lineage
Description: Tiamat is one of many from the Doragon clan, but she is also one of the few. She was told that when she was born, her parents had supposedly sacrificed themselves towards a ritual using their own Wyverns, offering both their blood and the blood of their companions in exchange towards granting Tiamat increased power. This ritual, although effective, was entirely forbidden within the Village, causing Tiamat to immediately become an outcast to her own people and forcing her to go through her own means in order to gain knowledge and strength, even while she was within the orphanage she was raised in.
Technique Effect: Intelligence +A, Resolve +B, Speed +C
Cost: Passive Stat Boost

Approved - Ryuu

Technique Name: Draconic Cutter
Description: A specialty Kenjutsu technique invented by Tiamat, when she was not taught any traditional styles. This sword style imbues the abilities of her clan into explosive force behind her strikes, allowing her attacks themselves to be aligned with the effects of her Wyvern counterpart.
Technique Effect: Strength +A, Speed +B
While using this Kenjutsu style, she can imbue one sword strike a post with an element her Wyvern possess, only after her Wyvern uses it's breath attack, using the same action as the Wyvern's breath attack )
Cost: A+B x25 Chakra, per post active

Character Name: Amanita Zieds
Profile Link:

Technique Name: Fungal Symbiosis (Colony Keeper)
Description: Instead of a plant-based set of powers, Ama is the guardian of a quasi-intelligent colony of mycelium, formed from countless strains and species, all assimilated into one being, which relies on Ama’s Chakra to survive. This colony is intitricately connected to Ama in inperceptable ways. The two are inseparable, a vital part of each other.
Technique Effect: For all purposes, Ama’s fungi count as plants, including for techniques, abilities, etc.

The Colony has it’s own kind of intelligence, and operates separately from Ama. Ama and the Colony use eachother’s senses (the colony possesses only a sense of touch and a sense for the presence of Chakra on it’s own.), and the colony can operate without direction from Ama.

The Colony can display many different traits in it’s fruiting body(ies), drawing from all of the traits of all of the fungal bodies ever assimilated into the colony. The Colony is capable of displaying 1 trait, +1 for every 10,000 Chakra Ama has (up to 5). These traits are completely mundane, except for ones created with other abilities.
Cost: 100 Chakra to form a fungal body, +100 per trait

Reavers Approves
Let's do; every 10k Ama has up to 5.
And 100 chakra +100 per trait.
Otherwise, it sounds good to me.

Technique Name: Fungal Traits I
Description: These are traits Ama has collected from more mundane species of fungus, and are useful in the more traditional sense.
Technique Effect: Unlocks a Trait progression tree from Start up to 15k Chakra.

Start: Sturdy
This specimen has sturdy, woody flesh, and is suitable for creating dense objects. It’s properties are similar to that of a hard wood. This Fungal Body uses Ama’s SPIRIT to determine it’s Defense, to represent it’s density. Can be formed into many different shapes and sizes. Costs 25 chakra per post used.
--- RANK 2 --- [Locked until 15k]
Defense increases to SPIRIT+A. Comparable to metal (Ax25) Chakra per post maintained.


5000 Chakra: Edible/Medicinal
+A Resolve for 3 posts, +50 HP. Costs Ax25+100 Chakra to create
--- Rank 2 --- [Locked until 15k]
Additional +10 HP for every 100 Words (for 3 posts beginning at any point within the next 24 hours) Additional 500 Chakra to create


10,000 Chakra: Psychedelic [WIP]
+A Spirit OR Int. Hallucinations (varied. Ama's Spirit+B vs. Opponent's Resolve to resist) Costs ((A+B)x25)+100 to create. Effects last 3 posts
--- RANK 2 --- [Locked until 15k]
-----


15,000 Chakra: Unlock Rank 2
Cost: +50 Chakra (to cost of fungal body) for base effects. +100 for Rank 2. Additional costs noted in trait description.

Reavers Pending:
All of them: should have some sort ot outstanding cost while active/in use based on the values applied.

Edible:
Are you adding +25 Resolve and restoring +50 HP? I'd prefer to keep using the letters for the Resolve. And an extra cost for the health regain in general.

Psychedelic:
Same thing. Switch to an +A, +B etc system for the positives. And apply a comparison for something vs Reaolve for the hallucinations.

I'm not sure about the regain of chakra in general. It shouldn't be entirely needed. And plus 100 Chakra wouldn't be much of anything anyway in the long term.

I already mentioned costs, so the idea can be repeated here. Either way, 100 and 50 is far too low for costs for these anyway.

Technique Name: Combat Traits I
Description: Ama and the Colony have developed a few traits specifically for combat, pushing the limits of what Fungi are capable of.
Technique Effect: Unlocks a Trait progression tree from Start up to 15k Chakra.

Start: Mobile Fungi
This fungal body is capable of quick, and even violent movement. These bodies are often simple club-shaped “arms” of mycelium that form when needed. They use Ama’s SPIRIT to determine their general strength and speed. Bosts 100 Chakra per post to maintain form.
--- RANK 2 ---
Use Ama’s Spirit+A instead Cost increased by Ax25 per turn


5000 Chakra: Spore Cloud
This fruiting body is engineered to drop clouds of spores on command. These spores serve multiple purposes. They serve as an extra tactile sense for the colony (can sense when something moves within/disturbs the spore cloud). They also can deliver a variety of effects, both positive and negative. Any effect that can be delivered through one of Ama’s mushrooms can instead be delivered on contact with or inhalation of these spores pending a comparison of Ama's Spirit +A vs. the half of the opponent's Defense+Resolve. This spore cloud is 10 feet wide, centered on the mushroom that spawns it. Costs Ax25 per use, and 1/2 that per turn
Rank 2
Cloud can travel up to 100 feet from the mushroom (SPIRIT for travel speed) that spawned it. Size of cloud increases to 50 feet


10,000 Chakra: Hungering
This fungus hungers for chakra. The chakra cost of any enemy technique used within 100 feet of this fungal body is increased by Ama's Spirit+A, ½ of that extra chakra is added to a pool.
When that pool reaches 100 Chakra, the fungus can spontaneously mutate, getting an additional trait or adding +B to one of it’s “stats” (Such as attack power, attack speed, defense, Ama's side of a comparison, etc.). A single fungal trait is heightened for 5 posts. Costs Ax25 for the Chakra drain and Bx25 for the "stat" buff.
--- RANK 2 ---
Critical Mutation. As Rank1 but Mushroom gets +1d4 traits and an additional +A to one “stat” (must be different one from rank1)


15,000 Chakra: Unlock Rank 2


Cost: +50 Chakra (to cost of fungal body) for base effects. +100 for Rank 2. Additional costs noted in trait descriptions

Reavers Pending:

Spores:
Just needs a something version Defense, or something of the like. Just so it's not an auto hit as long as anyone is in the area.

Hungering: I'd rather we did the Chakra drain as something other than. Percentages.
Like a Spirit+A x25 additional Chakra.
With half going to a pool of chakra that causes the mutations. As well as a definition of the "Stats" referenced.

As before; all costs should follow the lettering dynamic, or be increased to a higher cost in general.
You're at 5k now. But you're looking to at least go into the 100k mark. Having techniques that only cost 100 or 150, and get effects at 100 or 150. Are too low on general.

Character Name: Tomo Jibaku
Profile Link: Here

Technique Name: Basic Gunlance
Description: Tomo wields a somewhat unique weapon, a large lance that includes an integrated cannon that she uses to direct her explosions. She is highly adept at fighting with this weapon, often incorporating a large shield so she can take cover behind and take advantage of the range her weapon provides.
Technique Effect: Lance itself uses STR+A for damage and gives her DEF+B. Can choose ignore one of the bonuses to increase the other (+B becomes +A), to represent focusing on either offense or defense..
Can use the barrel of the gunlance to direct the explosions created by any of her techniques. Doing this causes the damage to happen in a 45 degree cone instead of a sphere, directed away from Tomo, with the same explosion range. Tomo cannot be damaged by her own explosions used in this way, unless the technique itself specifies she must.
Cost: A+Bx25 (OR Ax25 if focused on offense or defense)

Reaver Approves

Technique Name: Basic Shelling
Description: Tomo’s Gunlance is complete with a chamber. She has learned to create ammunition for her weapon, pre-made explosives designed specifically to be fired with her weapon. Needless to say, this is more effective than the typical rock bomb.

Technique Effect: Intelligence+A for damage of explosions. 50 Foot cone (roughly 45 degrees starting from barrel of gunlance)
Tomo’s Gunlance can hold 3 rounds before she must reload. She cannot fire any shells in the same post she reloads.
Cost: Ax25/shell

Reaver Approves

Technique Name: Charge Shield
Description: Crafted from a rare alloy mined from the volcanoes of her homeland, Tomo’s shield has the unique ability to absorb the energy of the attacks that it blocks, storing it up to be released in a massive surge of explosive chakra.
Technique Effect: Shield Defends at DEFENSE+A
Each time an attack that costs chakra is successfully defended against using this shield, [ B ] Chakra is added to a pool of energy ( [ X ] MAX 100 ) that is stored into this shield. This energy can be utilized in a few different ways:
-- [Turtling] - This energy can be channeled into the shield itself, increasing the DEF value of the shield by ½ of the X value and increasing Tomo’s resolve to defend against attacks by +B. Reduce speed by 1/2 (ONLY movement speed, not things like derived stats or whatever) [ X ] can be stored, even while defending with Turtling active.
-- [Evade Lancing] - The energy can be channeled into the lance, increasing the attack power of the lance by ½ of the X Value, increase attack speed by +B
-- [Wyvern Fire] - The energy is released in one gigantic blast. The damage of this blast is: If 1 or 2 Shells are chambered; Intelligence + 1/2 X Damage. If 3 Shells are chambered; Intelligence + X Damage. With a range of a 100 foot cone

Cost: (A+Bx25). paid each time the energy is directed to one of the three options. Energy is maintained at it's activated level, as long as cost is paid each turn.

Character Name:Xzavior Smith
Profile Link:

Technique Name: Independently Wealthy
Description: As the only surviving child of his incredibly-wealthy parents, Xzavior is quite wealthy himself, even at his young age. He wants for nothing.
Technique Effect: Xzavior is extremely wealthy. He either already has, or can purchase any mundane objects he desires, and have that object delivered to him immediately. These objects are fully mundane, with no special abilities or combat applications (Exception: Xzavior can buy mundane swords and stuff like this). Can only "purchase" 1 item per post
Cost: 100 Chakra and ??? Pounds




Technique Name: Diamond Mind
Description: Xzavior’s intellect is head-and-shoulders greater than his peers in his clan, who are in turn head-and-shoulders more intelligent then their peers at the Shinobi Academy. Xzavior’s mind is like a diamond, perfect, unbreakable, and multifaceted.
Technique Effect:
-- (1) Can pay the cost for INT+A and RES+B for 3 posts
-- Xzavior’s memory is flawless. He can remember anything he has seen/heard/etc. With perfect recall for an unlimited amount of time.
-- (2) Xzavior can pay the cost to increase the stat calculations of any [Psionic] technique or Benimaru Clan technique by +C
-- When Xzavior does not know something, he knows who to ask. He can gain canon knowledge about people, places, and events in the world (The guild), if given a full day to use his information channels. This knowledge cannot be related to the stats/mechanics of a person, but he can learn things about their family, history, etc. (RP stuff basically). He can learn obscure detailed history and information about a certain village or clan. He could learn if a village was attacked, even if very far away. These are some examples.
Cost: A+Bx25 for INT/RES buff. Cx25 for Psionics buff




Technique Name: Student of the Arcane
Description: Xzavior’s exceptional intelligence makes him a prodigious student of all forms of arcane magic.
Technique Effect: As long as he has visited and learned something from the related thread before, Xzavior can learn any technique he has access to (excluding Taijutsu and Kenjutsu ones) outside of their thread at 2x word count requirement (does not apply to Xzavior's CP total). If he trains in the appropriate area to learn a technique, he learns it at a normal Chakra cost.

Xzavior can waive the requirement to have visited the location before if he spends an additional 3000 words “researching” techniques used by a particular village or inspiration for them in an appropriate research area (somewhere with books). For this purpose, Research is treated like it’s own technique that does not increase CP total, and that must be learned before any other techniques from that clan can be learned without direct experience.
Cost: Noted above
