Kidō (鬼道, Demon/Spirit Way; Viz "Soul Reaper's powers"/"Spells"; sometimes translated as "Demon Arts") is a form of Shinigami combat based on advanced spells. These spells are produced with strong Reiryoku and it is one of the techniques in the Zankensoki, the group of Shinigami primary combat skills. Kidō spells are triggered by an incantation. Experienced users can trigger them without an incantation, though the effectiveness of the spell will be diminished. The power of a spell relies heavily on the power of the user, as even a low-level spell can be utterly devastating when utilized by a high-class Shinigami. One's mastery of the Kidō arts also greatly help in increasing their effectiveness. Kidō can be used for practical purposes as well. For instance, one may use a spell to light a dark hallway should it be tweaked in the right way.
Spells that have been approved are available to the public, meaning that they will be considered part of the Shino Academy's curriculum should their category allow it. One may create personal Kido spells only their character know of if, and only if, they have contributed 5 public spells to the guild for each personal spell. Only characters with qualification in Kidō may create personal spells. They may also assist others in creating personal spells, however. Both concerned RPCs will need to have contributed 5 public spells. Both characters will then have access to that spell. A character will still need to train for their private spell, but the training posts may also cover how they've created the spell.
Fill out the following skeleton and post it in this thread to submit a custom Kidō spell for review.

[b]Name:[/b] [b]Incantation:[/b] ((Optional, but should it be unknown, that the spell will rarely ever be used at its full potential)) [b]Description:[/b] ((Make sure that it can be defeated, avoided or undone.

If left blank, we will assume it is something accessible to all, like the canon Kidos ))

Here are the five new Kido, as well as an entry for Zoufuku. Edit: Noticed a few grammar/formatting mistakes.
Type: Hado Rank: 1-20 Name:River of Eternity Incantation:Encircle and Submerge; Engulf and Drown; Cleanse and Destroy those who refuse to swim! Description: Creates a ring of liquid-like Reiryoku around the target, which slowly shrinks until it applies crushing levels of pressure to the victim. Other: The offensive capabilities of this Hado are much lower than it's rank would suggest. It is very rarely used in battle, but is a very common Kido to practice control with. The more gradual and liquid-like nature of the Kido allows for better practice over control over a duration of time, when compared to the more ephemeral nature of the fire-and-lightning based Hado.
Type: Bakudo/Hado Combination Rank: 81-90 Name:Gravitational Collapse Incantation:Part 1:Fall, be crushed under the weight of your own hubris. Incantation: Part 2:Be subjugated to the will of the power you once commanded. Description: A tremendously powerful Kido, Gravitational Collapse first pulls everything in the radius (dependent on the skill of the user) to the center of the Kido, sapping the Reiryoku from every being trapped by it. Using the Reiryoku pulled from the victims, a powerful, concentrated explosion detonates at the center. The more powerful the victims, the more powerful the explosion. Other:Gravitation Collapse is unique in the fact that, while it is a very high-level Kido, the ability to use it is not dependent on the strength of the user, but pure technical skill, as all the strength is drawn from the victim. As one of the few Kido that require a Double Incantation, as well as being a combination of both Bakudo and Hado, there are very few Shinigami that can use it. It is not uncommon for lesser beings to be killed the the Reiryoku-draining process of the first half of this Kido.
Type: Bakudo Rank: 41-60 Name:Noble Eightfold Paths Incantation:Just as the water of a river plunges into and merges with the ocean, so to do the Noble Eightfold Paths plunge into and merge with reality. Description: Creates a large rune on the ground in the shape of a dharmachakra, stretching 100 meters from opposite tips, with the entire rune being centered around the caster. When traveling along the spokes, objects heading outwards are increased in velocity, while those heading inwards are considerably slowed. Other: This Bakudo is a useful Kido for any being with ranged capabilities and a stationary fighting style - every attack sent outward is helped, while every incoming attack is hindered.
Type: Hado Rank: 41-60 Name:Blazing Gale of Four Humors Incantation:Whispers from the winds, infect and cleanse the diseased! Description: The user creates bolas of pure Reiryoku in their hand, which can then be flung out at any chosen target. If they connect, they will entangle the victim for a second, before seeping through their skin into their bloodstream. Immediately after, the victim's blood will begin to heat up dramatically, eventually reaching boiling temperatures.
Type: Kaido Rank: 81-90 Name:Kido Leech Incantation: The Kido Leech is not an on-demand Kido, but rather a construct made of Reiryoku. As such, there is no incantation, though the creation process takes several weeks. Description: A Reiryoku construct that takes the form of a leech, the Kido Leech can be affixed to a Shinigami. While attached, it will continually drain a small amount of Reiryoku from it's host. In exchange, it will drain and remove any lasting, Kido-based effects. Other: While incredibly useful, it is recommended that only high-strength Shinigami make use of the Kido Leech, as the draining effect can quickly incapacitate those of lower power. In addition, the Kido Leech cannot remove the effects of Kido that are powered by more Reiryoku than they have drained from their host.
Type: Bakudo Rank: 61-80 Name:Zoufuku Incantation:Beings of power given form, accept this gift of my meager strength, and allow me the ability to better serve. Description: A semi-opaque barrier that will boost the strength of any Kido cast through it. It can double the strength of any Kido, but at the cost of said Kido requiring nearly three times as much energy. Other: A Kido created by Shizuko Yukimori, she has yet to share it with anyone.

Hmm... I saw that there's also an inventions thread - would the Kido Leech fall under Kaido or Invention more?

I would say that this would be more fitting as a Hado even if it has Bakudo properties since it can easily kill. I do not think this counts as Double Incantation. The definition of Double Incantation is mixing the incantation of 2 different spells to form one. In this case, it sounds more as though it's 2 short incantation turned into a single, longer one. I don't really like the idea that its user's reiatsu level doesn't come into play and would like you to add that it is extremely tiring to cast, deadly even if one doesn't have the energy for it, even if it is supposed to use the Reiryoku of what is caught in the spell. It is either that or we give it an complicated and hard learning process specifically aimed at this spell. Edits required.

Is there a way to stop the boiling? Edits Required

Yeah, this would be more of an invention : x Still, I think that's enough for Zoufuku.

I'll get around to adding them to the list in another color. eventually @,@

The first incantation creates the gravitational pull, while the second is used to detonate the 'payload.' It is not uncommon for lesser beings to be killed the the Reiryoku-draining process of the first half of this Kido.

If they connect, they will entangle the victim for a second, before seeping through their skin into their bloodstream. Immediately after, the victim's blood will begin to heat up dramatically, eventually reaching boiling temperatures. The boiling effect functions as though it were a poison, and can be hindered and healed by any healing meant for poisons. If not prevented or healed, the boiling blood will last for a total of ten seconds, before the effect fades.

Sure I'll be happy to give my seal of approval to some new Kido. Having said that...
Noble Eightfold Paths...I feel like this should be given a definite time limit. Maybe 2-3 posts or so? Everything else is A-OK in my book.

I think you'll have to take it up with Feiyimei then, she's added them to the Kido list. But I don't have an issue with it.
How about 3 posts? If both parties are fine, I'll edit the list. Actually, any of us can lol
3 posts works for Greg.

Would a variation of Shunko go here or is that more in the hakuda spectrum?
Shunko itself is actually high-speed high-power hakuda, just with what amounts to pure Kido energy powering the speed and power. So in short, anything Shunko is, imo, on the Hakuda spectrum.
