Welcome to Gaia! ::

~ Crest of the Knight: When active, elegant tattoos appear all over Pharos's body. This means he is shielded from attacks and his muscle mass increases. He can project energy based attacks and can created a blade made of blue energy.

Spells:
-Soaring barrage: The user creates 5 balls of mana (using his hand or sword) and the balls will fly up into the sky. After a certain amount of time, the caster can summon a barrage of energy lances from the sky.

-Tenken Arm: The caster creates a third arm made of mana that resides like a hologram. It mimics the casters movements and augments the casters strength to deliver a powerful blow to multiple enemies.

-Mana blast: The caster can fire off a beam of mana from the palms upto 18 meters away. This beam can cut through enemies or it can magically wound them (depending on the power used to cast the spell).

-Mana shield: The crest generates a basic mana shield that blocks spell power. It shatters like glass and can only be re-casted with the users own mana(at a heavy price).

- Horn of triumph: The casters crest shines gold as a horn blares in the distance. 100 blades will appear in the air and the caster can fire the blades at the target in either waves or in one go.

~ Crest of the Guardian (stage 2): When active, a full set of silver armour forms on the caster. The crest tattoos are etched into the armour in the same positions as the crest of the knight. This crest grants the user expert level energy based magic and physical skills like speed and strength are doubled from the crest of the knight. The caster may also use a special sealing spell (Arcane grip) that stops the movements and holds any creature (excluding humans and mages) that uses mana.

-Tenken Arms: The caster creates a third and fourth arm made of mana that looks like a hologram. They mimic the caster's movements and augments the casters strength to deliver powerful blows to multiple enemies.

- Call of valor: The caster creates mana duplicates if himself that fight alongside him for 3 posts. These duplicates can take maybe one or 2 hits before disappearing so you have to be careful how ya use them. They all look ghostly and it is obvious which is the real one but these duplicates are only used as extra bodies to fight.

-Steadfast stance: The caster will take a wide stance and make sure both feet are firmly planted on the floor. They will then feed mana into their soles and however hard one will try, the caster can not be moved from that spot unless their will power wavers.

Blade augment: The anamarian blade can be augmented by this crest to become a buster blade, 2.5 meters in length and 50cm wide. When the caster slams the blade onto the ground, cracks of blue energy will form and small expolsins will erupt in the direction of the blade.

Steadfast shield: Like the ward except this shield can break with powerful and multiple spells being thrown at it. The caster must stand still and not have his will power broke in order to keep the shield up.

~Flame Armour: Engulfed in flames from head to toe. Pharos can not be touched (in theory) and can use fire magic. This is the first of the flaming crests and can be one of the more destructive when fully mastered. Pharos's fire resistance also increases when this cloak is worn.

spells:
-Dragon's rage: The user generates a concentrated powerful blast of fire using both fists. The target can gain sever burns or even be blasted apart. This spell will burn the user aswell depending on the location and distance to target.

Flaming whip: The user can generate a flaming whip that increases attack power. The whip will extend upto 6 meters and can give the target medium burns.

Fire Ball: The user fires a fireball 2 meters in radius. That will knockback and burn the target

~Crystal Armour: For defense purposes. This Armour is slower than the rest and protects the user from attacks (magical and physical. Pharos can also use crystal magic in this form. Magic attacks stronger than his own can break the armour and the crystal armour is not so resistant to ice magic. Crystal magic that Pharos uses has the same characteristics as earth magic.

Spells:
-Risen pillar: The caster slams his fists on the floor and channels his earth/crystal energies into the ground. Pillars of crystal/rock will quickly rise to attack the target. The spell will track the target so the pillars will rise from where the target will land.

-Shining prison: The user directs crystal particles to attach to the target. Once the particles attach, they grow and expand. Trapping the target in a crystal prison.

~Aura cloak: Using his own life force to create a shield, Pharos uses this as a last resort. Pharos's aura cloaks him in a gaseous armour that neglects 50% damage for a short amount of time. All magic spells cast while using the aura cloak becomes aura based magic until the armour fades.

Root chakra stance: The caster takes on an unusual stance with his fingers extended and straight. The caster's forward leg slides forward and the front arm points to the foot and the other in the opposite direction. The caster's aura turns red and the users physical strength is increased 3 times over and his/her skin density also doubles in durability while this technique is active.

Sacred chakra stance: ????????

Solar plexus stance: The casters fists become explosive and covered with a yellow light that can counter weak to medium level attacks for 4 posts before weakening.

Stance of the heart: The caster can connect to the targets heart and emotions and feel what they are feeling at the time. This allows the caster to understand their target and see where they are coming from. This might allow the caster to talk the target out of attacking. A strange side ability of this technique is the caster can connect with a target and take on all of the pain the target is feeling. This means the target will be cured and be injury free while the caster takes on all of that.

Stance of the voice(not learnt): The caster's voice becomes a powerful roar that can tame 1 biological beast or animal that is of this universe and dimension. This will last for 5 posts only.

The Mind's eye technique (not learnt) confused ????

Chakra crown(not learnt): The most powerful spell in this crest. A halo of purple energy appears above the caster and a purple katana alight in flame appears in the casters hand. This weapon has the power to take on very powerful opponents and survive, even win depending on the caster.

~Whirlwind cloak: Wind curls around the user at high speeds so it deflects projectile attacks. Pharos can run at high speeds and use air magic.
