Description
Descent of the monkey king is a common enough fable. For his brawl in heaven, Sun Wukong was struck down and buried under a mountain unable to escape. From this fall, his blood spilled out, a rare feat to wound one immortal five times over. A villager by chance took the blood and healed himself with it. Later his descendants would be able to call upon a small sliver of Sun Wukong's power. However, those with this blood in them have the potential to achieve something even greater. Like a seed, certain individuals are able to grow the power within them and have it become something more, them being able to call upon more of the Monkey King's abilities. Sometimes the individual strides to perfect themselves and happen on this by chance, other times in the pursuit of nirvana they awaken this. And sometimes, Sun Wukong himself decides to torment guide them so they may achieve more. Reina falls into this third category. 

While Reina may complain about the process, the results are uncanny. With his blood in her by chance long ago, she has been able to mimic to a lesser degree many of his powers and abilities. And even if only possessing a fraction of his prowess, her abilities as a mage has been increased ten-fold.

Abilities:

• Monkey King's heavenly figure: While not being able to crack moons by itself or leap over mountain ranges, she is able to use the full potential in her bloodline without exertion, enjoying user rank buffs to her strength and speed up to S-rank.(2)
  
  
• Monkey King's Arsenal: Body is not the only full potential she has been able to bring out, her own innate spells have also been empowered. The user is able to add a combination of two spell slots going up to S+ or two signature spell slots going up to S rank to one of their magic's. However one has to be a wind based spell and the other a ice one that has a freezing effect.(1) [If you're having two S+ advanced spells as a potential lineage ability, this will need to have two effects rather than one]
  
  
• Shen Wai Shen Fa: The user, while not to the Monkey King's extent, is able to produce a clone of herself by removing a portion of her hair. This clone is a exact replica of the user when she summons it, having the same magic, abilities, and equipment Reina is currently wearing. However, the clone comes in with only half the max health of Reina and both the clone and her share the same mana pool. Finally the clone posses a thick brushy monkey tail(This irritates Reina to no end). 5 posts duration, 6 posts cooldown.(2) [Please clarify that the clone and the original cannot cast spells independently of one another]
  

• Huo Yan Jin Jing: Gained in a similar manner to how the Monkey King's gained his, Reina now posses Fiery red eyes. These eyes are not just for show though. Reina is now able to effortlessly detect disguises, illusions, and transformations when she sees them. This ability by itself does not mean she can see through it however.(1)
  

• Single Bian: While not as impressive as the Monkey King's 72 Bian, she is able to transform herself into a single form. This form is reflected as a full takeover spell up to S+ that is added to any one of her magic's. To reflect from where it came from, the user can add one additional active or passive ability to it, but at a cost this form can only be called upon once a thread. (1) [This take over will still need to require partials to be able to have the full, and this would cost two lineage effects.]
  

• Monkey King's Fortune: For a being who had become five times immortal, their has to be immense luck involved. So much so that a sliver has been passed down to the user, allowing them to gain 100% jewel reward upon a job completion. (1)
  

• Monkey King's Hidden teachings: Having been around a assortment of beings beyond reina's comprehension, he has learned a few tricks when it comes to using magic that he has passed down to Reina. Reina now casts her spells with 50% reduced cost.(1)
  

• Monkey King's Shapeshifting: She truly couldn't be considered a disciple if she didn't know his core trick. Reina can now shapeshift in objects, animals, and people with ease. However if she transforms into another person she will have a thick brushy monkey's tail while changed. Even if this wasn't a issue, she may give off a aura of wrongness that others will know without fail that she is disguised(Need OOC permission for successfully disguising herself as a PC, NPC owned by a player, or event NPC's).(1)
  

• Monkey King's Renewal: While Reina is not immortal, she does have something similar. If a killing blow is landed on her in battle, she will suddenly turn metal before fading away to rust in the wind. After her death she will appear farther away in whatever she was wearing when she died. Where she appears however is completely dependent on the Monkey King's will, and he also decides how she revives. She may revive in a horse stable or need to break out of a jail cell, it's really up to his whim. This only applies to deaths in battle; old age, sickness, or the tragic accident will not trigger this ability(plot).

• Monkey King's Arsenal: Body is not the only full potential she has been able to bring out, her own innate spells have also been empowered. The user may add a single spell slot ranking up to a max of S+ to one of their magics.(1)
  

• Shen Wai Shen Fa: The user, while not to the Monkey King's extent, is able to produce a clone of herself by removing a portion of her hair. This clone is a exact replica of the user when she summons it, having the same magic, abilities, and equipment Reina is currently wearing. However, the clone comes in with only half the max health of Reina and both the clone and her share the same mana pool. The clone and Reina cannot cast spells or activate abilities independently of one another, however the clone can copy a spell or active ability by casting it for the equivalent to it's mana cost when applicable. Finally the clone posses a thick brushy monkey tail(This irritates Reina to no end). 5 posts duration, 6 posts cooldown.(2)

• Bian Foundation: The user while not having access to the monkey king's 72 bian, they do have the foundation needed to begin their own set of transformations. They may apply this effect to one of their magics, allowing them to devote three of their spell slots to take-over spells. They must be two partials and one full take-over. However if they apply this to a take-over magic of any level, one of their full take-over spells may have a additional passive or active ability. (1) [This will need to be 3 lineage effects rather than 1 as you're making 3 spells be TO and adding an extra ability to a full one as well.]
  

• Monkey King's Fortune: For a being who had become five times immortal, their has to be immense luck involved. So much so that a sliver has been passed down to the user, allowing them to gain 100% jewel reward upon a job completion. (1)

The user gains two spell slots ranking up to a max of S+ or two signature spell slots ranking up to a max of S. (2) (You can do either one of the two but switching between the spell slots counts as both of these effects being present in this lineage ability, which would bump the effect count of this ability up to 3)
  

• Shen Wai Shen Fa: The user, while not to the Monkey King's extent, is able to produce a clone of herself by removing a portion of her hair. This clone is a exact replica of the user when she summons it, having the same magic, abilities, and equipment Reina is currently wearing. However, the clone comes in with only half the max health of Reina (Please clarify that this only applies to an unmodified base health pool) and both the clone and her share the same mana pool. The clone and Reina cannot cast spells or activate abilities independently of one another, however the clone can copy a spell or active ability by casting it for the equivalent to it's mana cost when applicable (Please additionally clarify that this caps at S rank max). Finally the clone posses a thick brushy monkey tail(This irritates Reina to no end). 5 posts duration, 6 posts cooldown.(2)

• Monkey King's Hidden teachings: Having been around a assortment of beings beyond reina's comprehension, he has learned a few tricks when it comes to using magic that he has passed down to Reina. Reina now casts her spells with 50% reduced cost.(1) (MP cost reductions count as a base modifier and therefore require an impactful and grave downside to include in custom lineage abilities. I must ask you to add just such a downside to this ability if you wish to preserve it in its current form)
  

• Monkey King's Shapeshifting: She truly couldn't be considered a disciple if she didn't know his core trick. Reina can now shapeshift in objects, animals, and people with ease. However if she transforms into another person she will have a thick brushy monkey's tail while changed.

• Monkey King's reckless nature: The monkey king before his ascension to nirvana was a violent reckless soul, which said trait appears to be a genetic one. The user gains a base increase to their speed by 50%, but has their (base) spell healing reduced by 50%. (1)
  

• Monkey King's signature arsenal: Much like the monkey king's Ruyi Jingu Bang, the user now has the ability to call upon their own signature weapon with ease. This is reflected by the user gaining a signature requip spell that can be used in any of their magics. Said signature spell ranks up with the user up to a max of S, and must be graded as normal otherwise. (1)
  

• Shen Wai Shen Fa: The user, while not to the Monkey King's extent, is able to produce a clone of herself by removing a portion of her hair. This clone is a exact replica of the user when she summons it, having the same magic, abilities, and equipment Reina is currently wearing. However, the clone comes in with only half the health of Reina's hp(unaffected by any health buffs the user has) and both the clone and her share the same mana pool. The clone and Reina cannot cast spells or activate abilities independently of one another, however the clone can copy a spell or active ability by casting it for the equivalent to it's mana cost when applicable(up to a max of S+ rank spells).

• Monkey King's Jade body: The monkey king's journey to the legend he is was not a easy one, but being made out of solid rock certainly helps. Reina has gained this aspect to a lesser degree, her body having enough of the substance to make a noticeable difference. She gains a damage resistance of 25% and a 50% base increase to her spell durability. Her base spell power however is reduced by 50% due to the defensive nature of this trait.(1) (Firstly, this is actually two effects, as the increase in Damage Resistance is separate from the base increase to Spell Durability. Secondly, "Spell Power" is not a stat that can be buffed or rebuffed here on FTRP. If this is in reference to Spell Damage, please denote this stat as such. Third of all, this is not an equivalent exchange. The increase to base Spell Durability is compensated for by the decrease to base Spell Damage. Damage Resistance, however, functions in a similar way to a base increase in that it requires a significant and equal drawback to implement, which I must ask you to add if you wish to keep this ability as it is now)
  

• Monkey King's Shapeshifting: She truly couldn't be considered a disciple if she didn't know his core trick. Reina can now shapeshift in objects, animals, and people with ease. However if she transforms into another person she will have a thick brushy monkey's tail while changed. Even if this wasn't a issue, she may give off a aura of wrongness that others will know without fail that she is disguised(Need OOC permission for successfully disguising herself as a PC, NPC owned by a player, or event NPC's).(1) (This really is a plot ability and doesn't require the expenditure of a lineage effect)
  

• Monkey King's Renewal: While Reina is not immortal, she does have something similar. If a killing blow is landed on her in battle, she will suddenly turn metal before fading away to rust in the wind. After her death she will appear farther away in whatever she was wearing when she died.

• Shen Wai Shen Fa: The user, while not to the Monkey King's extent, is able to produce a clone of herself by removing a portion of her hair. This clone is a exact replica of the user when she summons it, having the same magic, abilities, and equipment Reina is currently wearing. However, the clone comes in with only half the health of Reina's hp(unaffected by any health buffs the user has) and both the clone and her share the same mana pool. The clone and Reina cannot cast spells or activate abilities independently of one another, however the clone can copy a spell or active ability by casting it for the equivalent to it's mana cost when applicable(up to a max of S+ rank spells). Finally the clone posses a thick brushy monkey tail(This irritates Reina to no end). 5 posts duration, 6 posts cooldown.(2)
  

• Huo Yan Jin Jing: Gained in a similar manner to how the Monkey King's gained his, Reina now posses Fiery red eyes. These eyes are not just for show though. Reina is now able to effortlessly detect disguises, illusions, and transformations when she sees them. This ability by itself does not mean she can see through it however.(1)
  

• Monkey King's Fortune: For a being who had become five times immortal, their has to be immense luck involved. So much so that a sliver has been passed down to the user, allowing them to gain 100% jewel reward upon a job completion. (1)
  

• Monkey King's Jade body: The monkey king's journey to the legend he is was not a easy one, but being made out of solid rock certainly helps. Reina has gained this aspect to a lesser degree, her body having enough of the substance to make a noticeable difference. She gains a damage resistance of 25% and a 50% base increase to her spell durability. Her base spell damage however is reduced by 50% and her spells cost 25% more mana to cast due to the defensive nature of this trait.(2)
  

• Monkey King's Shapeshifting: She truly couldn't be considered a disciple if she didn't know his core trick. Reina can now shapeshift in objects, animals, and people with ease. However if she transforms into another person she will have a thick brushy monkey's tail while changed. Even if this wasn't a issue, she may give off a aura of wrongness that others will know without fail that she is disguised(Need OOC permission for successfully disguising herself as a PC, NPC owned by a player, or event NPC's).(plot)
  

• Monkey King's Renewal: While Reina is not immortal, she does have something similar. If a killing blow is landed on her in battle, she will suddenly turn metal before fading away to rust in the wind. After her death she will appear farther away in whatever she was wearing when she died. Where she appears however is completely dependent on the Monkey King's will, and he also decides how she revives. She may revive in a horse stable or need to break out of a jail cell, it's really up to his whim. This only applies to deaths in battle; old age, sickness, or the tragic accident will not trigger this ability(plot).
