Description:
The material world has always been the chosen demesne for the sport of gods and demons, creatures whose excess of power lends itself to grandiose displays. These displays, often writ with the cost of blood, have caused innumerable events of destruction. Worse still are the insidious effects of their manipulation for prestige, power, and influence, whereby they manipulate mortal beings into performing their bidding; unseen, they are able to play the denizens of the world as marionettes like master puppeteers.
This has never sat well with certain elements of society, who seek to redress the balance and restore some semblance of agency back to the hands of mortal men. An incredibly powerful coven of witches sacrificed themselves in a blood ritual of grand proportion, their bodies twisted and contorted and given new life in the form of a ritual trinket bathed in magical ichor. This, the sixfold binding talisman Hexarch, is now symbolic of the witches' crusade to rid the world of deific influence, able to control the sinister powers of both gods and demons. Its power is legendary - it is said to devour the power of gods and demons alike and store it for its own ritualistic purposes, whereby the more it consumes, the more powerful its bearer becomes, though the substance assigned to these rumors is questionable at best as its bearers tend to be overtaken by the immeasurable strength that this token provides before they themselves are swallowed whole by its influence.
It is, in itself, an irony - the power required to combat such incredible forces contorts the one who faces them into the very monster they seek to destroy.
The amulet itself is cast of silver, inlaid at its core with a cat's eye topaz that pulsates and glows with a magical power - said to in fact be the crystallized eye of an actual beast sacrificed to the ritual - which is then held within a hexagram surrounded by the twelve symbols of the zodiac. The talisman itself is then carried on a woven blood-red cord, one that can be looped around the neck or even tied around a limb - but so the story says, once it finds a worthy bearer, that cord will sear and bind to flesh until either the talisman's purpose is served, or the wearer is slain. One way or another, none have lived long enough to confirm or deny the full extent of the binding's power.
Abilities:
Name: Warp
Rank: D
MP Cost: 20 MP
Category: Auxiliary
Type: Burst
Range: 15 meters
Duration: 3 Posts
Description: The talisman possesses a spell that briefly folds a miniscule space together for the user to travel through. This allows the wielder to instantaneously warp once per post following Teleport Effect rules. Since the range is unsuitable to escape large-scale spells, the wielder draws more power from the talisman to increase their Spell Durability by +50% for the duration as well.

Description: Using its unholy magical enchantment to consume the energy of a spell cast at the wielder, the talisman can nullify a single spell of equal or lesser rank to this ability when directed at the caster without paying the MP cost. This nullification then grants 25% of the base MP cost of the spell that was negated to the wielder. The spell in question must make contact with the wielder in order to be negated. Only a single spell may be negated this way.

This attack will burn any target it strikes, immobilizing them for a single post while also conferring a user rank active Spell Damage buff to its user for the duration of this ability.
