Seikatsu Vs. Bandits

Spells:

Name: Reinforce
Rank: D
Type: Soul
Duration: 4 Posts
Cooldown: 5 Posts

Description:
The wizard channels the souls energy around him onto a single targeted object. This creates a type of crosshatched weave that has a different color for different materials.
Metal - Blue + Light Blue
Ceramic/Stone - Green + Dark Green
Wood - Red + Scarlet
Glass - Grey + White

Casting:
When the wizard is casting this spell he/she places his hands together (prayer style) causing the space in the middle to glow a faint white+grey. As the wizard increases the space between his/her hands the glow concentrates into an orb, and begins to expend as more soul energy is put into it. After the amount of soul energy is sufficient for the amount of surface being coated, the wizard separates his/her hands, leaving the grey/white orb in one. He/she then proceeds to press his/her entire palm on the object to be reinforced, and the orb sinks into the object. After the spell is cast, a set of lines ~1/2 inches apart emerge from the location the orb went in, and create a cross hatching pattern that covers the entire object, and giving it a sweet new color dependant on its primary material

Strengths:
1 Reinforced weapon gets +25% damage
2 Can be applied to any object made Metal, Ceramic, Stone, Wood, or Glass.
3 Looks beautiful when applied to metal.

Weaknesses:
1 Reinforced item can still be broken
2 Can NOT be applied to living creatures.
3 If an object is NOT composed 95% or more of Metal, Ceramic, Stone, Wood, or Glass; the spell will not work.
3 Can only be applied to two objects AT MOST.
4 Application of this spell requires direct contact with the object to be reinforced.
5 This spell cannot be applied twice to the same object.

Spells:

Name: Knives of the Fallen
Rank: D
Type: Soul
Duration: 3 Posts
Cooldown: 4 Posts

Description:
A set of 10 total throwing knives. Each knife is Dark Blue, with light blue highlights moving through out them. Each knife is roughly 5 inches long(including the blade), and is double-edged. On the side of them, five small indentations are made that adjust airflow for better control. These knives will maintain their form for 3 posts, or until they've impaled something. If the knife impales an organic object, it will cause greater pain(within reason) than the average knife would. Can be destroyed by spells of equal or greater rank.

Casting:
The mage places his/her hands on the side of both arms and motions as if he were pulling one of the knives from their holster. A cloud of grey and white soul energy spirals around the hand, and then forms at the arm creating a sleeve. After an extra moment, 4 knives will appear in each sleeve, and 1 in each hand.
Ability: cause twice as much pain (no damage change.)
Speed: 2 meters per second
Range: 10 feet
When a knife is thrown, it lets off a grey+white cloud of soul energy.

Strengths:
1 Can be used as a tactical equalizer to distract stronger opponents.
2 Very effective against small prey (normal fish, rabbits, normal birds etc...)
3 If the knife doesn't get stuck in something, it can be picked up (unless the spell's time is up)

Weaknesses:
1 If the knife gets stuck in anything it immediately goes poof regardless of how much time is left.
2 Knives can be deflected
3 Knives thrown Line of Sight can be caught, and thrown back
4 Knives have the same effect on the caster, as it would their targets (If the target catches a throw, throws it at the caster and lands the shot)
5 Can be destroyed by spells of equal or greater rank.

Name: Spirit Barrier
Rank: D
Type: Soul
Duration: 4 posts
Cooldown: 5 posts

Description:
A bubble composed of souls stored in the scabbard on Seikatsu's waist, he can block almost any attack with it. The bubble is mostly light blue (allowing the caster to regain his/her bearings), with dark blue blotches moving through out it. Upon being destroyed, the barrier releases a huge cloud that impairs the sight of all inside it. The barrier has a radius of 9 feet from the very center.
The Spirit Bubble will stop a definite amount of attacks, based on the following rank scale:
D - 2 attacks - All inside takes 5% damage from the attack that breaks it
C - 1 attacks - All inside takes 9% damage from the attack that breaks it
Note: 2 D Rank spells = 1 C Rank spell. The bubble will take either 2 D, or 1 C



Casting:
The wizard forms both hands to resemble small cups, and places them together horizontally with fingers facing opposite directions. A small Light Blue + Dark Blue sphere forms in the middle of the hands, and enlarges as the wizard parts his/her hands. The sphere will fully expend once the wizard has parted his/her hands entirely forming a large Light Blue sphere, with Dark Blue highlights.
This barrier is exactly like a soap bubble. It will allow those composed of the same material (spirits) in and out of it, and rejects anything else.

Strengths:
1 Provides a valuable defense, even if it's just for a moment
2 Can be used to protect a team for a brief period
3 A more offensive spell can be prepared from inside the bubble (it cannot be fired/cast from inside the bubble)

Weaknesses:
1 If surrounded may be just as much a liability as an asset
2 Mages above C rank just pop right through.
3 When destroyed, everyone enclosed in the bubble take damage instead of just one person
4 Attacks can't leave the bubble
5 Can be destroyed rather easily

Name: Double Strike
Rank: D
Type: Soul
Duration: 1 post
Cooldown: 5 posts

Description:
Seikatsu seems to have a fan. Seikatsu may call upon a single soul to assist him in his next attack. Seikatsu's next blade attack, will be followed by the strike from a soul. This deals D rank damage to whoever Seikatsu cut, and can not be blocked, but can be avoided.

Avoided: The soul strikes in the exact same spot Seikatsu cut. So if the target is moving, or get's knocked back, or jumps to a side they can avoid the hit entirely. The only time a moving object will EVER be hit, is if that object is moving so slow that it cannot get out of the way. Example: Seikatsu cuts someone in the chest, and they move a couple inches to the side. That opponent will be hit in the exact same spot, at the exact same angle, just a couple inches to the side of Seikatsu's cut.

Why can't it be blocked by physical? Because ghosts phase through objects, the reason this deals damage is because the ghost is slicing into an opponent's soul. However, a ghost is not immune to the elements... Fire, Water, Wind, Lightning, Light, and Darkness are all very effective at taking care of this.

Casting:
Seikatsu takes a breath, and says "Stand with me" when he's ready to attack. At this moment, and blue mist will appear around Seikatsu, and follows him until his next strike, where the spirit will cut the exact same spot Seikatsu did.

Strengths:
1 It can-not be blocked by Metal, Earth, Ice, Armour (unless it has "Soul resistance")
2 It can be used with Seikatsu's Soul Sword, or any physical sword he's using at the time
3 If the attack lands, the opponents will take D rank damage added to the previous attack

Weaknesses:
1 The accuracy of the attack is almost 0% if a target is moving
2 The spell can be stopped by Fire, Water, Wind, Lightning, Light, and Darkness
3 Requires Seikatsu to use a bladed weapon, and will not occur if Seikatsu is using a bow, whip, or anything else that isn't a sword
4 Only triggers 1 time, and then has a 5 post cooldown

Name: Wall of Swords
Rank: C
Type: Soul, AoE
Duration: 3 posts
Cooldown: 6 posts

Description:
Using the souls energy around him, Seikatsu creates a flurry of swords and causes them to spin in a spherical formation around him. The ethereal swords do nothing to stop incoming attacks, they merely cut bits of Seikatsu's opponents off from the physical world. This AoE deals C rank damage (decreasing with distance) to a medium sized area, and can be used with Seikatsu's Spirit Barrier. The blades do not cut flesh, or deal damage to armour. They phase through everything within the effective radius, and cuts pieces of that person (or animal's) soul.

Deals 0 damage to enemies within 9 feet of Seikatsu, 0.33% C rank damage to enemies 9.5-11.5 feet of Seikatsu, and 25% C rank damage to enemies 11.6 - 20 feet of Seikatsu.
To clear confusion: There is an effective 11' radius that is covered by this spell. However, the spell is a doughnut with a 9ft radius hole in the middle.

Strengths:
1 This spell is one of the only spell Seikatsu has that can escape from inside the Spirit Barrier, this is because it is formed just outside the barrier's wall.
2 This spell can deal damage to enemies while the barrier keeps his opponent out
3 By the time an enemy charges through the wall of swords, they have taken some nasty damage, and can be finished off.

Weaknesses:
1 This spell has a HUGE area that deals NO damage (the 9.5' doughnut hole)
2 This spell can be blocked by C rank spell, or equipment
3 This spell DOES NOT BLOCK damage, or prevent people from getting close
4 This spell deals damage to EVERYTHING in it's effective radius

Name: Soul Sword
Rank: C
Type: Soul
Duration: Instant
Cooldown: 4 posts

Description:
This upgraded version of the rank D soul sword maintains its use as a finishing move, or a very fast block, this spell appears as a Dark Blue double-edged straight sword with light blue patches weaving about the inside. During the execution of the spell, a Grey and white resonance is created as the spell disperses. In higher ranking versions, can be reinforced.

Casting:
The wizard places his/her hand at the top of a sword's scabbard as though he/she was holding the grip of a sword. Soul Energy is channeled through a small (5mm) hole at the base of the scabbard, and the soul energy takes the shape of the blade that matches the sword. The guard of the sword appears and encases the caster's hand, creating an orb around his/her hand (result from having no definite shape). As the attack, or block is being performed and dark blue aura is quickly flashed around the caster(no bonus, just for looks). The sword begins to disperse until it becomes nothing but a linear cloud or spirit energy (this is because the weapon was taken out of its mold before it could be permanently shaped).

Strengths:
1 Can be dual wielded
2 Provides a great alternative as a defence against a single attack
3 Provides a good stall if Seikatsu's normal weapon is knocked out of his hand, broken, incinerated, etc...

Weaknesses:
1 Dual Wielding extends the cooldown of this spell by 1 additional post.(Dual Wielded is still instant, cooldown becomes 5 posts)
2 Does not remain due to being forged with minimal concentration
3 Can be dodged
4 Can be blocked by a C-rank or higher spell
5 Can not be Reinforced by Seikatsu's reinforce spell, or any other reinforcement spell

Name: Marionette's Fury
Rank: C
Type: Soul, AoE
Duration: 2 posts
Cooldown: 7 posts

Description:
White strings wrap around Seikatsu's fingers, and connect with the ground beneath him. These strings emege from the ground, and have the ability to grab opponents, or cut them causing small damage and minor bleeding for a post (1.5C rank dmg). The weight limit for this spell is 275 pounds. With eight strands being controlled by Seikatsu, the odds of getting close are slim. The strands can also be combined, and wrap around an opponent to immobilize them.
Deals C rank damage at the center (within 2 feet of any of the strands)
Range: 5 meters (15ft 10inches)
Speed: 10 meters per second (running speed)
Minor Bleed Effect, in terms of HP it would be -1% HP per post.

Casting:
Seikatsu holds out his finger and separated them as the soul energy around him is converted into a very fine, sturdy strand that wraps itself around his fingers. The strands then burrow into the ground, and surface 2 feet from Seikatsu. The strands are strong enough to pick up opponents around Seikatsu's size, but can not handle the weight of larger things. Since Seikatsu's hands are anchored to the ground by the strings, he can not move for the duration of this spell.

Strengths:
1 Deals 1.5x C rank damage total (DoT)
2 Can inflict a minor bleed effect
3 Can keep close range opponents at a distance

Weaknesses:
1 Can be broken by magic/weapons of equal rank or above
2 Can not lift opponents above C rank
3 Seikatsu can't move while using this spell leaving him wide open.
4 Can not lift opponents if they are a certain weight.
