Mystic Energy & Mystic Arts

Mystic Energy also called Prana has a variety of applications. It is the source of all powers.
Psychic Powers
Psychic powers are innate abilities developed by one's affinity to Prana. They are not learned in the same way Magic or Cultivation is as everyone's Psychic powers have particular quirks that set them apart on how they learn to control it. Psychic powers are either developed through extensive usage of the other Mystic Arts or when one has such a high affinity to Prana, they spontaneously develop. Psychic powers are innate being typical anti-magic capabilities cannot nullify them, only a particular unique power known as Anti-Psychic Presence can nullify psychic abilities. Psychic powers fall into two categories, Psychokinesis for abilities that influence a physical system and Extrasensory Perception for powers that deal with the mind.
Magic
Magic is performed by converting Mystic Energy into a desired effect. It is often bound by laws of Metaphysics. But laws can be flexible based on the path a caster takes. Depending on the magic, spell casting may require some form of ritual either using hand gestures, prayers, tools, or incantations. Magic can also be affected by what type of Source is fueling it. Magic Spells fall into one of eight categories: Abjuration, Transmutation, Conjuration, Divination, Enchantment, Evocation, Illusion, and Necromancy. In addition to this Magic is derived from one of two resevoirs, Spiritual magic derives magic power from spirits while Aspectual Magic derives magic power from the self.
Cultivation
Cultivation is the Mystic Art of Manipulating the Meridian System and Ley Lines. It is most often used in tandem with martial arts and in some cases is an extension of such. Most Mages and Espers will be well versed in this unique art as it allows them to increase their Spellcasting Power Output and Psychic Potency significantly. Abilities usually fall into one of three categories: Internal, External, and Disruptive.
Alchemy
Alchemy is a Mystic Art dealing with the practical and scientific applications of Mystic Energy. It is categorized into three disciplines: Iatrochemistry which is the Medical Field, Parapsychology which is the Psychological Field, and Metaphysics which is the Technological Field.
Bloodline Talents
Bloodline Talents are unique genetic and hereditary abilities of certain individuals. They are typically unique to one person or a bloodline. Mystic Eyes are classified as this. Bloodline Talents are often the result of a mutation in the body or an individual's Mystic Energy's properties, in most cases it's both.

PLEASE NOTE: Energy is energy these are just different frequencies of Mystic Energy produced and how it is used. Just so you know, Chakra is basically Ki in this case.

The Meridian System
User Image


Overview
The Meridian System is a complex circulatory system of Mystic Energy. It is comprised of Spirit Circuits or Meridians that interconnect with all Pressure Points within the body including the main Seven Chakras. Pressure points are swirling culminations of Mystic Energy within the body and if disrupted can cause serious harm. This system is essential to the production of Mystic Energy within the body and cannot normally be seen by the unaided eye.
Mystic Origin
The Mystic Origin is a hidden state within the Meridian System achieved by a link with the intrinsic truths and forces of the universe and nature. This is accomplished by following certain disciplines or pursuing knowledge of the Esoteric and the Occult. By doing this one balances out and unifies their Seven Chakras and initiates this link. In the practice of Kabbalah this state is referred to as Da'at.
Aura
The Aura, also referred to as Shen, is the radiance of the soul caused by the Mystic Energy within. Depending on what chakras are active it can take a myriad of colors. While Auras can be visible to Espers and Mages, the colors of them typically are not unless the caster exerts Magical Energy to make them visible or the observer possesses Mystic Eyes. And for most Espers and Mages, they can sense it but not actually see it without proper training. Colors and Feelings that Auras give off can change according to health, mood, thoughts, and spiritual condition. Auras can also be found in all things but these auras are not caused by a Soul Radiance but instead caused by a Matrix Radiance, a radiance caused by Non-Living existence especially the non-living environment that life develops in.

Mystic Eyes & Other Bloodline Talents

Introduction
Mystic Eyes are rare powers that are highly coveted. Some are completely unique to one user while others are unique to a bloodline. They are activated when one channel's Mystic Energy to their eyes. What all Mystic Eyes have in common are their ability to see Mystic Energy in full detail, High analytical prowess, accelerated perception, and a Guardian Spirit. Despite this, what makes them differ from each other is that they tend to have an additional 3 powers that compliment each other on top of the base abilities they possess. A prime example is the Mystic Eyes of Heaven's Divine Sight, Evil Eye, and Origin Manipulation. All these powers have to do with manipulating Existence itself.
Mystic Eyes
Mystic Eyes are caused by a physical mutation of one's Meridian System within the Eyes. This results in unique powers manifesting in those eyes. Mystic eyes are the rarest between the two eye powers. However they are typically found in both single individuals as well as bloodlines.
Pure Eyes
Pure Eyes are a classification of Mystic Eyes. This classification is only given to the most powerful and potent of Mystic Eyes. The Mystic Eyes of Heaven are classified as Pure Eyes.

Mythical Substances


Overview
Mythical Substances are Allotropes or Compounds containing one or more of said Allotropes that occur in areas high in Mystic Energy and Raw Materials and have become famous due to their properties. It also refers to any substance that can only be obtained through Alchemical Means.
Alloys
Mythical Alloys have unique properties that typically are not found in ordinary metals. These metals could be described as Living Metals because of some of these special properties. However others have properties that seem to defy the laws of physics.
Mithril
Mithril is is a powerful alloy only found in asteroids or planetoids and is a shiny silver color that reflects light in an iridescent manner. It is an extremely pure and strong metal used in armor and weapons among other purposes. It is a superconductor and can dispel or enhance kinetic force. It was the primary metal used by the Hyperborean and Lemurian Militaries for Armor Plating. It is often referred to as Songsteel.
Adamantium
Adamantium is a black metal with a green sheen similar to Orichalcum in structure and properties, in fact so similar in properties it is occasionally called Dark Orichalcum. It can only be found in asteroids. Unlike Orichalcum however it reflects light with a silvery hue. In japan it's called Tamashīhagane.
Orichalcum
Orichalcum is a naturally occurring brass-colored alloy and one of the strongest alloys known. It is extremely resistant to corrosion and resists deformation greatly. It is malleable and if placed through certain processes the atoms will organize in a particular structure making it practically indestructible. It is also highly biocompatible and thus was also sought after by the Annunaki for nanotech and implants. This metal is used in swords and is used extensively for Atlantean Armored Suits alongside Adamantium. In japan it is known as Hihiirokane due to it's golden color and it's habit of reflecting light in a vermilion hue. It is extremely durable and is many times stronger than Tamahagane. It is most notably used in some of Sendo Muramasa's Magic Swords.
Cavorite
Cavorite is an extremely valuable metal. Commonly used in a majority of Atlantean starships. It has gravitomagnetic properties. This makes a Starship selectively immune to the pull of gravity, allowing it to choose which heavenly bodies it may or may not fall towards via the amount of energy it is charged with. This steers, accelerates and decelerates the spacecraft, dependent on available gravitational forces, somewhat analogous to a "tacking" behavior of a sailed ship.
Hyperium
Hyperium is a well known Mythical Alloy. It is highly prized because of it's ability to contain Antimatter in Etheroantimatter weaponry. When an Etheroantimatter weapon detonates it is able to react with the large scale energy burst and enhance it's destructive explosive power.
Rosantine
A natural and incredibly strong rose gold hued alloy. if placed through certain processes the atoms will organize in a particular structure giving it enhanced diamagnetic properties. This metal practically lasts forever and heal's itself and is a room temperature superconductor. This metal is mostly used in polearms, shields, and gauntlets.
Minerals
Mythical Minerals have various properties that are more suited for more mundane purposes but also have equal value for military applications as well.
Star Crystals
Star Crystals are rare Crystalline Compounds loosely related to Quartz. They are often referred to as Living Crystals or Stones of God. This is because of their rarity in nature and their incredible mystical powers as Time Crystals. They are the primary source of power for most Atlantean Technology. They can only form naturally in either the Death or Birth of a Star System, as such they are closely affiliated with Rebirth and the Origins of the Universe and all things Within. Atlanteans however have a strange and mysterious Ability to grow or "seed" these crystals as well as seed existing Quartz Crystals with similar properties. It is ultimately unknown why Atlanteans have this unique power but it is often attributed to their close connection with the divine as is implied in their culture. It is unknown if other Human Species by extension have this unique power however one thing is certain, it is the ability to produce these crystals that has led them to be so powerful as a civilization and this trait is only shared by two other races, the Lemurians and Arcturians. These crystals are most notoriously used in Arcane tools and weaponry most famously the Angel Blades of those affiliated with the Order of the Sacred Flame or any Sanctified Establishment affiliated with the Divine.
Philosopher Stones
Philosopher Stone also called Carmot or Red Mercury, is a Red crystalline substance imbued with Etherium, an exotic state of matter composed entirely of Etherons. It is a stone with highly energetic properties that when exposed to sufficient energy levels be it kinetic, gravitational, electromagnetic, or etheric, emits a powerful explosive burst of nuclear energy. It is sometimes used for nuclear transmutation but is more often than not used to create the "Thunderbolt of the Gods" AKA an Etheronuclear Weapon. Philosopher stones are built for one reason, War.
