Description: This group of techniques is a project created by Katsumi in conjunction with a few other LAO survivors. It pulls the ‘magic’ arts from LAO and produces them in the world through a device personalized to the user. While limited for wide usage, the LAO survivors have managed to spread it among themselves. Each has managed to create their own version of it that is most comfortable for them.
Katsumi has used not only the 'magic' from LAO but her own sword styles into these techniques. While others have focused on adapting this to magic, Katsumi prefers to use the physical aspects and chi. For her, that is the most comfortable way to use these techniques. Unfortunately, Katsumi will be overcome by the past while using this magic due to the techniques being pulled straight from LAO. She struggles to overcome the pull of the past and break free into who she wants to be.
Benefit: +75% to Melee Damage (solitary), 70% MP to SP
Unique Abilities:
~Black Swordswoman: Katsumi has never stopped wielding the blade. She has a passive 60% buff to Strength.
~For Those I Miss: Katsumi fuels her training with thoughts of those lost in LAO. Her chi responds to those strong emotions and grants her a 60% passive buff to SP.
~Effort and Hardwork: The wielder pushes themselves to improve. They have a 60% passive buff to SP.

Feeling Empty
Description: A thousand years or two ago, a small little village was struck with a horrible curse by a power-hungry demon, each inhabitant losing half of their soul to the demon. No one saved them. The Magic Council, the freelance mages, the guilds and even the dark guilds did not dare to go near them, for with their half of their souls gone, the forbidden Container of magic power known as the Second Origin within each of them was left wide open like a black hole and whenever they got close to magic, magic was drawn towards them, absorbed by the empty half of their soul. As a result, ostracized by the magic-dominated world, they were cordoned off from the world like a disease, left in their shell of a village to rot. However, they strove to live despite this predicament and they did. Eventually, history forgot their 'crimes' and the descendants of these villagers were let out into the world, still holding the diluted version of the curse within them.
Ability: The user in missing half of their soul has resulted in the opening of their Second Origin, the secret container of magic that very few mages get the chance to access. However, unlike its original purpose, having being opened since the user's birth, the Second Origin is empty, and hungry. It is like a black hole for magic energy, though not as potent as its original, but still useful in your fights, for if your opponent manages to smack you with a spell, don't worry about the injuries, you can catch some of their magic energy away for your own usage. The user gains MP equal to half the spell used to attack them that they were get hit by.
Usage: 3 posts with a 8 post cooldown. The user can only absorb MP from one spell they are hit by per post and they can only absorb the MP from a spell of their rank or lower(Max S-rank).

Duration: 25 posts
Downside:
Description: The wielder circulates the dark chi of their body. A dark aura begins to roil off their body, tendrils of wispy black that snap at anyone nearby (plot only). The aura kickstarts a stamina regen of 5% and a speed buff of 115%. Once per post, if the wielder sees a spell or technique of H+ rank or lower within range, they can pay a stamina equivalent to that paid by the original caster in order to copy the spell or technique. They create a dark technique from the copied spell/technique to fire back at the opponent. The stress this puts on the wielder means each perceived spell or technique can only be copied once per its duration. When the wielder attacks an opponent within range, the aura hardens into a single edge that extends across the distance. If the black blade strikes the opponent, they take technique damage.
