[/b]Type:[/b] One Handed Sword & Sheath

Abilities: The swords sheath acts as a conductor for light and feeds the blade its energy, similarly to how Shuhei consumes light. However, the light that is consumed is stored within the blade and over a long enough period of time it is capable of restoring daylight to a darkened area when it is unsheathed making it as if he and his opponent were fighting during the day. Upon unsheathing it a flash of light will erupt from within the sheath and the effect will take place.  If an opponent is watching Shuhei draw his sword, the opponent will be blinded for the duration of his next post.  It can also be used to counter Spacial effects that darken an area, so long as the effect is by a spell A-Rank or lower. The sword will gleam black as a result of its ability, and the gold trimming will glow majestically. Shuhei will also be cloaked in a smoky white aura which signals that his powers have been amplified in the same way that he is during the day. The light generated from the sword is only blinding upon its initial unsheathing and once drawn, it only acts as a medium through which Shuhei may use spells and as a simple tool to slice and dice.

Strengths: The sword amplifies all of Shuhei's magical capabilities by 115% and can resist up to A-Rank spells. The sword and sheath was crafted from the Talon of the Holy White Dragon and as a result, only a White Dragon Slayer is capable of using its power which is akin to that of an actual Dragon. The sheath of the sword is just as much a weapon as the sword itself, having been made from the very same talon and it can actually be considered to be a dual weapon. The sheath is as hard as diamond and can be used as a blunt weapon, capable of dealing just as much damage as the blade.  The sword cannot accidentally fall from its sheath, nor can it be drawn by anyone other than a White Dragon Slayer.  

Weaknesses: The swords ability has no effect during the day (Though it still flashes when he draws the sword which can potentially blind his opponent.) and only acts as a means to bring daylight with him in to battle and even though the sword has no effect during the day, if Shuhei draws the blade it will expel all light stored within it and he will not be able to use its effects for later battles. So if he wastes the swords ability during the day it will have to cool down for the thread after. As a result of this Shuhei is hesitant about using his blade and only draws it when he desires to kill his opponent or when he requires its power to defeat an overwhelming enemy as it's more devastating techniques require it to be unsheathed.

Name: Deflection
Rank: A
Type: Defensive
Description: Shuhei bats away an appropriately sized A-Rank spell with the sheath of his sword back at his opponent. Since the Sheath of the sword is made from the talon of a White Dragon, he can bat away anything that emits light, along with any form of solid attack. So most elemental magics can be affected by this. Gaseous spells that do not emit light are not affected.
Strengths: This technique is if anything, surprising. Nobody expects their spells to be swatted back at them so he has a chance to catch his opponents off guard with this, it also acts as a strong defense.
Weaknesses: 5 post cool down. There are several elements that cannot be batted away, such as water and many other gaseous elements. (That will be discussed between myself and the opponent and the time to avoid any conflicts.) Elements that generate Light are affected as well as elements that are solid such as stone or ice.

Name: Brilliance
Rank: A
Type: Defensive
Description: Shuhei holds his sword up in front of him while it is still in its sheath and focuses a portion of his magic in to it as he slowly draws his sword from its casing about an inch. The ability of the sword will begin to take effect, releasing its initial flash of light. At this time Shuhei will manipulate the light from the sword and focus it forward using his own magic. The power Shuhei puts in to the sword turns this flash of light in to a shield of light which can deflect an incoming attack. The shape of the shield will not be visible as the light would mask its shape so it would appear to be a simple flash of light. Immediately after the flash of light, Shuhei will sheathe his sword again, preventing it from loosing all of its energy, saving its special ability from succumbing to its cool down.
Strengths: It is a quick Shield that can be created on the fly to defend himself or an ally against spells that are A-Rank or lower.  Enemies can also not see the shape of the shield so they cannot adapt to fire a spell to circle it however iit does only defend from one direction. Even if the swords ability is on its 2 thread cool down, this technique can still be used as it only requires a very small amount of light, rather than enough to turn night in to day.
Weaknesses: Since the spell must be cast in such a quick manner, it cannot defend against sustained attacks, meaning it can only defend against one thing at a time. 5 post cool down.

What's the shape of the shield though
