Things active:
( Legilimency ) - Legilimency
Type: Supplementary
Rank: B - A
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 20 - 30 ( -5 per turn for B rank, -10 for A rank )
Damage: N/A
Description: An innate and somewhat passive ability, Legilimency is the act of magically navigating through the many layers of a person's mind and correctly interpreting one's findings. Legilimens ( users of Legilimency ) are able to detect if a person is lying, as well as delve into their thoughts, emotions, and memories if their target is not skilled in blocking their minds. In most cases, this is not a harmful or detrimental ability, allowing the user a way to predict and understand the opponent's movements and actions with the utmost clarity. While it is similar to reading minds, it should be noted that Legilimency is not as simple as the muggle art of mind-reading; mind-reading assumes that one is simply eavesdropping on the thoughts currently running through the head of another. Legilimency, however, requires the wizard to navigate and move through the various areas of the brain. In it's lowest levels ( B rank ), the user is able to utilize it in a way similar to "mind reading", allowing the user to 'read' the opponent's current thoughts and ones related to them at that moment. This is the basic level of Legilimency and once active, lasts until the user ends it's usage. With training and power, this ability and range increases. At A rank power the user becomes capable of actual navigating the target's mind and it's many layers. This is as harmless as the B rank variant. However, despite all of this, this ability isn't without drawback. The A-Rank version requires the target to be within mid-range while the B-Rank version works up to long-range (one landmark for normal members, two for House Heads and three for the Headmaster).
Note: Although the B rank version is a passive ability honed when the user reaches Year 6, he cannot use the A rank and higher versions without actually actively using this jutsu.
Note: A rank usage can allow one to simply navigate the mind.
Note: A rank usage can only be used once every four turns, lasting 3 turns each usage and requiring a two turn usage break in between A rank and higher usages.
Note: Must place within bio stating the user is a Legilimens
John's head leans to the side as he the woman, clad in black from head to toe, approached him. Her features were all striking. Her cheekbones sharp enough to cut the air, fierce eyes that seemed to pierce John's own, a demeanor that didn't impose, but struck with determination and confidence. He had met very few people like her before. But, being a woman, it was certain this would never end well for John. "I don't suppose you're more of a lover than a fighter?" he teased, unable to hold back a sly smile from escaping across the right half of his face. He knew there was little time to mince words. After all, his wand was drawn and his mind was at the ready. His grip tightened and the flow of his chakra moved, deliberately and direct, as he raised his wand slightly overhead. "Raiton Mahou." With the incantation, a bright light would emanate from John's body, filling Amara's eyesight. Ironically, the powerful illumination would steal the Surgebinder's vision away from her, rather than grant it as light normally does.
(Raigen Raikochu) – Lightning Illusion Flash of Lightning Pillar
Rank: S
Type: Supplementaty
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 40
Damage: N/A
Description: After performing the following handseals Ram → Horse → Snake → Tiger the user will release a massive amount of lighting chakra which he uses to create a blinding light that appears to emanate from all over the users body. The light can blind any enemy that sees it but its main ability is that, through skill and precise chakra control and timing, the user can use it as a cover to put the enemy into a genjutsu by using the light as a decoy, preventing the enemy from noticing the genjutsu was placed.
Note: Can follow with any Genjutsu the user knows up to A-Rank but needs to have mastered Genjutsu. The user will need to effectively spend two moves, performing both the Lightning Illusion and the Genjutsu; the first only serves as a cover to place the second unnoticed
Note: Can only be used once every three turns
Taking advantage of the light blinding her, John would immediately follow up by chanting "Obtestor," conjuring forth a large anvil, about the size of adult Gamahiro, 6 meters above Amara. The anvil would drop towards her, aiming to crush her into the ground from above while the blinding effects of the lightning jutsu remained.
( Transfiguration ) - Transfiguration
Type: Supplementary / Offensive / Defensive
Rank: D-S
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 10 - 40
Damage: 20 - 80
Description: Transfiguration is a field of mahou that deals with changing the form and appearance of an object, animal, or person. Different to other forms of mahou in radical ways, many wizards have difficulty grasping the fundamentals of Transfiguration due to its strict nature, every aspect of the spell must be done correctly for a Transfiguration to be completed. Often requiring firm and decisive wand movements, Transfiguration mahou is (along with charms) almost the signature mahou of the Kisei, as wizards are commonly thought of as making things appear or disappear. The mahou takes the form of a beam of magical energy that ( if it successfully hits the target ) transfigures upon contact. Transfiguration is divided into four main branches/applications:
Transformation - Supplementary ( D - S )
Thought of as the most basic of the four types of Transfiguration, transformation spells focus on deforming the physical features of an object. All Transformation spells are triggered with the spell ( Permuto ). Transformations are divided within 2 types, easily seen based on their applications and targets. The first Basic Transformations, reminiscent of the Transformation and Combination jutsus, are transformations that change the physical properties of a targeted item. This allows the user to change the properties of an item to give it new traits or properties. The user is able to transfigure a solid into a liquid or another solid, a liquid into a solid or into a gas/another liquid, or a gas into a liquid or another gas, all of proportionate size and directed at speeds based on the natural speed of the item manipulated. These items can only be basic items in the sense of they cannot turn something into the properties of an element the user does not have, nor can they change the properties of something created by another Kisei unless with equal or higher power/chakra. Of course, the amount of chakra used must exceed the amount of chakra present in the object being transformed for any change unless the object has no chakra present in it at all ( like a simple chair, stone, pool of water, etc ) in which case it is transformable with a simple D rank application of the spell for small things A for larger things. With an S rank application, the user is able to transfigure his own person and take on temporary enhancements such as using mahou to transfigure his upper body into that of a shark, or his legs into that of a bear, etc, and can only lasts up to 2 turns each usage and can only be used 3 times. The second, Switching greatly resembles general transformation, but with with two main differences: firstly, the features of the two targets are switched simultaneously; secondly, the change in one of the pair is dependent on a change in the other. For example, if the armor on a statue is targeted with the user's clothes, then the two items will be "switched", akin to the outcome of Substitution jutsu. The restriction applied specifically to this type the items must be of comparative size and within mid range of one another. Transformations of any kind can only be used once every 2 turns and cannot target sentient (living) beings besides the user and their own summons. Through Switching, nothing harmful can be switched onto the opponent's body/person. Transfiguration of the terrain spreads out gradually from where the beam strikes, with only A-Rank and above uses being capable of converting the battlefield up to long-range. Transfigurations up to B-Rank can be done without the beam, using only wand movements and incantations. They can can convert a mid-range area at most but cannot be used on anything within short-range of the opponent (e.g. the mid-range area cannot extend to anything within 5 meters of the target). The beam travels slightly faster than a standard wind technique while the beamless usage manifests itself on the target, similar to Switching.
Vanishment: - Defensive ( A )
A purely "A" ranked spell, requiring the use of only a single incantation to vanish almost any object ( Evanesco ). Vanishment is the art of using Mahou to cause objects to go into a state of non being; essentially, making it so that the object does not exist anymore. While called vanishing spells, it should be noted that the title is a bit misleading; while items it makes contact with are “erased”, they do not vanish entirely from existence. When the vanishing spell makes contact, the chakra within it causes it to cause the targeted item to collapse inwards on itself, appearing to fold into space rapidly as it is destroyed. However, this branch of conjuration is unable to be used on objects infused with chakra above A rank. This also isn't capable of being used on the opponent nor any animal or living being. Upon the beam making contact, the item vanishes in a thin mist proportionate to the item vanished, a thinly veiled yet visible mist left behind that doesn’t hinder vision. Usable once every 3 turns. Target is left vanished for 3 turns. Conjuration - Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary ( D - S )(A)
The most difficult branch of Transfiguration, conjuration deals with the usage of Mahou to create objects from nothing. Conjurations are done with the use of the incantation (Obtestor). With a usage from D-S, the user is able to conjure anything he desires within reason from chairs to swords. However, being the most useful facet of Transfiguration, also leads conjuration to be the most restricted. Nothing within the realms of custom elements, for example, can be summoned. The user could not conjure a "sword that cuts through anything" or an unbreakable shield for example. The Conjured objects are imbued with a measure of mahou, ranging from D-S rank and guided by the user's wand at speeds up to twice as fast as the user's speed. Conjured objects last a maximum of 4 turns before automatically fading away, draining 10 chakra per turn. Additionally, the user is unable to conjure people or sentient/living beings, or anything within short range of the opponent. Additionally, when several items are conjured, the rank of said conjuration is split evenly. S ranked Conjurations can only last 3 turns and be used 3 times in all.
Untransfiguration - Supplementary ( B )
The final branch of Transfiguration magic, and perhaps the second simplest (behind transformation). Untransfiguration deals simply with undoing the effects of a previous Transfiguration, turning something back to its original state, and undoing a conjuration. The amount of magic used in the Untransfiguration is at constant rank of 'B'. Mostly used when students perform a Transfiguration incorrectly, or when the user wishes to return something to its original shape. The incantation used is ( Reparifarge).
Note: S rank applications are usable only by Year 5 Kisei and higher.
Note: After S rank variants have been used, the user cannot use any version S rank and above the next turn.
Note: Only usable by members of the Kisei clan.

With her vision stolen by the blinding Lightning technique Amara simply responds by passively activating her chakra sensory. That, coupled with her motion sensory, easily detects the anvil which materializes above her. Weaving a set of two hand seals Amara produces a mass of black Prana directly beneath the anvil's fall; the Prana would be infused with her Cursed Seal, enhancing the chakra within it. Within the moment of forming the Prana would shape itself into the form of a dragon, named Balerion. Possessing a limited form of autonomy, Balerion waits for a brief moment allowing the anvil to fall onto his back. Rather than be crushed by it, the anvil would simply be transported to the Throne after being itself converted into Prana. After this occurs, Balerion would sky dive downward upon Constantine slamming his entire body, jaws and all, into him. Even the briefest touch would freeze Constantine solid. Amara stands there, simply watching the man.
(Chakra Henkanshi no Jutsu) - Chakra Sensing Technique (Passive)
Type: Supplementary
Rank: C
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 15 (- 5 per turn)
Damage points: N/A
Description: This is a very advanced of advancing the ability to feel and sense chakra. The technique allows the user to concentrate and detect someone's chakra. Users can use this to determine the nature of a jutsu used as well as sense masses of chakra. The use of this can be compared to Sharingan's brutish level of sensory, able to sense collection of chakra but not the level of clarity and precision Byakugan has.
Note: Can only be used by bios with Sensory ability.
Note: After having on a bio for 1 month, users gain the ability to activate Sensory passively.
(Kanki: Kigen no Kamigami) – Surge of Evocation: Era of Gods
Type: Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary
Rank: D-S (A)
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 10-40 (30 + 10 = 40)
Damage Points: N/A
Description: This technique encompasses the basic applications of the Surge of Evocation. The Surge of Evocation is the usage of Prana in its raw and unrefined form; whatever this Prana touches is transformed into ethereal energy and transported to the Throne. Prana will neutralize and be neutralized by techniques that possess the same amount of chakra. Similarly it will be useless against attacks of greater chakra and will not be weakened by techniques of lower chakra. However when used on living targets this ambient energy will feel extremely frigid to the touch and induce cold burns on contact or even freeze a target solid for higher ranked applications. D to B-Rank uses will inflict cold burns as well as all of the effects of frostbite. A-Rank uses will cause necrosis of the afflicted parts of the body, making them appear dark purple and bruised to signify the death of cells. Affected appendages and organs will cease to function, becoming completely immobile in the case of limbs. S rank uses will freeze the struck targets solid. In the case of Surgebinders, who are immune to all of the above effects, they will be transported to the Throne when struck by the prana of another member of their clan. Era of Gods can be split into three separate applications, all based on the same principle: constructs, armors, and familiars made of prana energy.
Pride of Gilgamesh – Gates of Babylon
The Pride of Gilgamesh allows the user to produce Prana either from the user’s body or on the battlefield. The Prana can only be manifested within short-range of the opponent if the user is also within that range, in which it must be created a minimum of one meter away. This restriction does not apply if the user chooses to release the Prana from their body, rather than manifest it away from themselves. The energy can be released from the body via various hand signs depending on the user's rank in the clan. This can be done to generate constructs bound only by the rank of technique used and one’s imagination; alternatively the user can simplify the application by creating streams, waves, and constructs of Prana. Manifested Prana is capable of taking solid form, granting tangibility at the user’s volition. Non-projectile uses of this technique are capable of levitating and can be governed through mental commands and a sustained chakra cost. B-Ranks and below are sustained through 5 chakra per turn, A-Ranks and above require 10 chakra per turn. Created constructs will last three turns per usage unless they are prematurely cancelled. S-Rank applications can only be used once every three turns and no Prana in the user’s next turn.
Embrace of Ishtar – Armory of Akkadia
This variant allows the user to manifest armors, auras, and coatings of Prana around their body. This can be used to enshroud a single or multiple body parts in a layer of colored energy. These defenses can be made to fit the body like conventional armors or enveloping it in a formless manner. The first type can be created with additional limbs and appendages such as wings which enable flight. The user can also constantly reshape it and create small-scale weapons from the body of the armor, though at the cost of one of the user's three moves. It should be noted that these constructs remain attached to the main body of the armor and so act as an extension of it. The second type generates a “flowing aura” that appears to flicker like an open flame. This aura is often made as an upwards column that is streamed into the sky with its base remaining around the user. It should be noted that its power is not split or divided as all of the Prana energy is part of one whole. The armors can exhibit tangibility, although this does not hinder the user’s techniques and their passing which can freely move in and out of the armor per the user’s will. B-Rank and below applications require being sustained with 5 chakra per turn while A and S Ranks require 10 chakra per turn. This technique can last a maximum of three turns. S-Rank applications can be used twice per battle. After an S-Rank application expires the user is unable to utilize Prana single turn.
Divinity of Merlin – Garden of Avalon
The Divinity of Merlin allows the user to produce Prana in the same way as the Pride of Gilgamesh and can be shaped in the same way, limited by rank and imagination. However, unlike the Pride of Gilgamesh which creates static constructs the Divinity of Merlin creates constructs imbued with a limited form of sentience – familiars. These familiars can be created anywhere on the battlefield, with the exception of short-range of the opponent unless the user is also within that range; in this case the familiar cannot be created within two meters of the opponent. This restriction does not apply if the user chooses to release the Prana from their body. Familiars are capable of taking numerous shapes, not simply limited to animals. These familiars are also capable of taking solid form at the user’s volition. Familiars are capable of remaining on the battlefield for four turns. B-Ranks and below are sustained through 5 chakra per turn, A-Ranks and above require 10 chakra per turn. S-Rank applications can only be used twice times per battle and no Prana in the user’s next turn.
Note: The upper echelon of the clan (Servants and above) are capable of using this technique without hand signs for B-rank and below. A-rank will require two hand signs and S-rank requires three.
Note: The lower tier clan members (Phantasms to Guardians) will require 5 to 3 hand seals for all ranks, decreasing as they they ascend in rank.
(Jūinjutsu: Kishō Meian) – Cursed Seal: Insignia of Duality
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: N/A
Chakra: N/A (+10 chakra cost to applied techniques)
Damage: N/A
Description: The Insignia of Duality is a potent dual talisman-based Cursed Seal first utilized by Galahad to seal his sister Amara over concerns of her corruption and power. The Insignia is a unique seal in its nature, but simple and common place in its application and mechanics. Much like the generic Sealing Tag the Insignia of Duality is utilized by an individual who wishes to seal another living being. However, unlike the Sealing Tag, this technique requires two talismans: one which bears the user’s chakra to initiate the seal, and the other which bears the sealed individual; the Light and Darkness of Duality. The seal’s basic mechanics are simple: the Light talisman requires the user’s chakra to initiate the Dark talisman to seal its victim. Through contact with the opposing seal the bearer is capable of sealing away the opposite, as such Light can seal Dark, and Dark can seal Light. This direct physical contact requires the wielder to bear the opposite talisman on their person while also maintaining physical contact for over two turns. After two turns the bearer of the opposite talisman will be instantly sealed within it. Like many seals those who are sealed away become exempt from the physical world entering a form of stasis preventing their bodies from aging. Unique to the Insignia of Duality the only one incapable of unsealing the individual within their respective talisman is the bearer of the opposite. As such, anyone who is not the bearer of Light or Dark can unseal the victim simply by making contact with the seal and expending 30 chakra. Additionally, unique to the Insignia of Duality, is its ability to detect the emotional state of the opposing talisman. It has been frequently shown that techniques and chakra can contain the emotions and consciousness of the user. And because Sealing Techniques have been noted to be able to seal metaphysical aspects of reality as well as convey communication through techniques such as Scroll Communication the talismans become able to sense the emotional state of its wielder. As such each talisman can sense its opposite; Light and Darkness become able to feel the anger, sadness, fear, doubt, and other emotions of the other. This does not convey locational sensory or any other form of chakra sensory. simply the cosmetic ability of sensing the emotional state of the opposite. Because of the Insignia’s unique design it can only be taught and bestowed upon pairs of individuals, effectively connecting their biographies – one which bears the Light, and one which bears the Dark. As such, this technique can only be taught to one other person.
Each talisman also possesses certain unique capabilities as well, offered to both bearers regardless if they are sealed or unsealed. The chakra which forged these talismans is capable of being passively released into the user’s techniques, much like the leaking of the Cursed Seal of Heaven and Earth’s ability to influence the user’s techniques. This is reflected through a limited and passive form of the transformation technique applied upon the user’s techniques causing them to change coloration at the user’s will. While coloration can be influenced, and is purely cosmetic, techniques cannot become invisible, transparent, or translucent, through this technique. Although their color scheme can be altered to fit any color within the visible light spectrum, as well as cause the complete lack and removal of light to create absolute darkness. This requires the user expend 10 additional chakra.
Constantine's eyes narrowed at the sight of the dark energy. Seemingly seeping out of nothingness, birthed from nothing but thin air and his opponent's will, the darkly colored energy began to change form, its shape becoming more distinct. Knowing that there never such a thing as coincidence, Constantine immediately realized that the formation of the dark energy likely was the result of some form of sensory, making further attempts to compromise her sight useless. "Don't suppose that thing wants a petting," he murmured, readying his wand. As the Prana completes its transformation into its dragon shape, John would wave his wand rapidly, releasing a thin blue jet of energy from it after the incantation "Difindo." The released Charm would match the size of the dragon, striking it directly along its center lining. The result would be Amara's decision to have the dark energy pause a moment in its effects, with the Severing Charm neutralizing the dragon as it itself became neutralized. As a result the anvil would be left to fall towards Amara unimpeded once again.
( Miryoku ) - Charms
Type: Supplementary / Offensive / Defensive
Rank: D-S
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 10-40
Damage: 20 - 80
Description: Charms are a set of spells that adds certain properties to an object or creature. Charms are distinguished from Transfigurations in that a charm adds or changes properties of an object; it focuses on altering what the object does as opposed to what the object is. Successful casting of a charm is achieved through concentration, precise wand movements, and the proper pronunciation of an incantation. When in use for nearly all spells, mahou used takes the form of a beam of energy that (if it successfully hits the target) begins to "bewitch" upon contact. Divided and taught at different Years, the basic of Charms start at simply levitation while the higher ranks create a very powerful shield. Unless specifically noted, all charms can extend up to long range.
D Rank
Levitation Charm: - Defensive
The Levitation Charm ( Wingardium Leviosa ) allows the user to target an object and lift it using mahou and chakra to do so. This allows even First years to lift items heavier then they normally would be able to. This allows the user to levitate and lift items in front of him should the need arise, proving him with either cover or a way to defend. Despite its strengths, however, the Levitation Charm has one notable flaw: it does not work on human beings. This can target items up to mid range away. It can't destroy or harm objects though it can be used to transform objects into projectiles. The object will leviate while focus is maintained preventing the use of simultaneous techniques.
C Rank
Disarming Charm: - Supplementary
The Disarming Charm ( Expelliarmus ) is a charm which forces the target to release whatever they were holding at the time. This happens by the wave hitting the target and triggers a "knee jerk" reaction on contact that causes a muscle spasm that releases the weapon. The Disarming Charm causes whatever an opponent is holding at the time to fly high out of their reach, landing 5 meters away. The Disarming Charm always appears as a jet of red light; indeed, this is one of the things that makes it recognisable before the effects of the charm are seen. This can be used up to mid range away from the user.
B Rank
Summoning Charm: - Supplementary
The Summoning Charm (Accio) was a charm that caused an object at a distance from the caster to fly into their arms. This spell needs thought behind it, the object must be clear in the caster's mind, before trying to summon. The charm works by the user targeting an object as he speaks and using his mahou to mark it and act as a beacon, the item honing in on the user's location. This spell needs thought behind it, the object must be clear in the caster’s mind, before trying to summon. Should an item be within long range, it will take 1 turn to arrive. Should it not be on the battlefield, it will take 2. Cannot be used on items fueled with foreign chakra. Cannot be used as a substitute to the various summoning techniques.
Banishing Charm: - Supplementary
The Banishing Charm (Depulso) is the counter-charm to the Summoning Charm. As Accio summons objects to the caster, Depulso sends objects away, backwards to mid range away. Unlike the Summoning Charm, which can summon specific objects from anywhere, the Banishing Charm banishes whatever the wand is aimed at. This works by creating a semi circle around the user, filling his short range radius as he wills it forward in the direction his wand is aimed, pushing outwards as it repels anything unranked or up to B rank, pushing it back with equal momentum as it possesses.
A Rank
Stunning Charm: - Offensive
The Stunning Spell ( Stupefy ), also known as a Stunner or Stupefying Charm is a charm that renders a victim physically unable to move and halts moving objects. Appearing as a jet of scarlet light, the spell collides into an opponent and slams into them with great force and, without causing damage, is capable leaving the opponent unable to move. The effects are short lasting, however, never lasting more than a single turn, and can be countered by either preventing the charm from hitting the target or, once the effect triggers, overpowering it with raw physical power. The target can still mold chakra, however; its just that his muscles become unable to move.
Human Presence Revealing Spell: - Supplementary
The Human-presence-revealing Spell ( Homenum Revelio ) is a charm which reveals human presences in the surrounding environment. The spell creates a quick, near instant burst of energy that doesn’t cause injury or any negative effects, being released as a “wave” of mahou that spreads the field near instantly, allowing the user to be given a mental map of every enemy (clones included but not summons or otherwise non ninjas/samurais) on the field in that instant. That awareness pertains to the "geographical position" of the enemies towards the user and it lasts 3 turns, allowing the user to keep track of enemies even if they move up to 3x their normal speed. If, after the charm is used, more enemies appear in the field, they will not be detected by the technique.
S Rank
Severing Charm: - Offensive/Defensive
The Severing Charm ( Diffindo ) is a charm used to precisely and accurately cut something. It is taught in second year charms classes, and if used inappropriately can cause death or injury. Appearing as a thin blue jet, the Severing Charm is able to cut through S rank jutsu and below, splitting the jutsu easily. It is capable of removing limbs and even causing death if used in an irresponsible way. This cannot be used in consecutive turns and only up to mid range. After using, the user cannot use S rank or baove charms for two turns and no other S rank charm on that same turn.
Bombardment: - Offensive/Defensive
Bombardment charm ( Bombarda ) is a charm used to provoke explosions; one use for this explosion is to blast open sealed doors or to blow bars off of windows. When the dark jet of energy make contact with an item, it causes a short range explosion, ripping the item to shreds if of S rank or lower. This allows the user to quickly release a burst of energy to destroy large attacks or to cause great damage to an opponent by creating an explosion on contact. This can only be used in mid or Long range and 3 times max. After usage, the user cannot use any S rank Charms the next turn and must wait two turns before reusing this.
Note: Nearly all Charms take the form of projectiles of mahou, and can be defended against like any other jutsu. For those that do not need to physically travel, their methods of defense varies based on the spell used. If the item targeted is within short range, the user is able to control said object nonverbally and without a wand as well. This can only be done by Year 6 and up Kisei.
Note: S rank applications are usable only by Year 5 Kisei and higher, A rank by Year 4, etc. .
Note: Specifical restrictions for each spell are listed in each’s description.
Note: Only usable by members of the Kisei clan.
Not letting up, immediately after releasing the charm, Constantine would wave his wand once more. With the phrase "Doton Mahou," Constantine would transform the ground in a 5x5 meter radius around Amara. The depths of the swamp would reach upwards of 20 meters. The anvil's weight and momentum would, upon slamming upon Amara, drive her down into the swamp to secure her death.
(Doton: Yomi Numa) - Earth Style: Swamp of the Underworld
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 30
Damage: N/A
Description: The user will first perform Boar → Tiger and then by changing the surface of an object beneath an enemy into mud and creating a non flammable swamp, the user can sink his enemy into the mud. The adhesive, chakra-infused mud ensnares the enemy's body, making it almost impossible to recover one's strength and escape from the swamp. The size and depth of the created swamp depends on the user's skill and the amount of chakra used, but if the user is an expert in this technique, it will always be possible to make a fair-sized swamp which is extremely effective against a great number of enemies or when having to face gigantic creatures.
Constantine's eyes narrowed at the sight of the dark energy. Seemingly seeping out of nothingness, birthed from nothing but thin air and his opponent's will, the darkly colored energy began to change form, its shape becoming more distinct. Knowing that there never such a thing as coincidence, Constantine immediately realized that the formation of the dark energy likely was the result of some form of sensory, making further attempts to compromise her sight useless. "Don't suppose that thing wants a petting," he murmured, readying his wand. As the Prana completes its transformation into its dragon shape, John would wave his wand rapidly, releasing a thin blue jet of energy from it after the incantation "Difindo." The released Charm would match the size of the dragon, striking it directly along its center lining. The result would be Amara's decision to have the dark energy pause a moment in its effects, with the Severing Charm neutralizing the dragon as it itself became neutralized. As a result the anvil would be left to fall towards Amara unimpeded once again.
( Miryoku ) - Charms
Type: Supplementary / Offensive / Defensive
Rank: D-S
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 10-40
Damage: 20 - 80
Description: Charms are a set of spells that adds certain properties to an object or creature. Charms are distinguished from Transfigurations in that a charm adds or changes properties of an object; it focuses on altering what the object does as opposed to what the object is. Successful casting of a charm is achieved through concentration, precise wand movements, and the proper pronunciation of an incantation. When in use for nearly all spells, mahou used takes the form of a beam of energy that (if it successfully hits the target) begins to "bewitch" upon contact. Divided and taught at different Years, the basic of Charms start at simply levitation while the higher ranks create a very powerful shield. Unless specifically noted, all charms can extend up to long range.
D Rank
Levitation Charm: - Defensive
The Levitation Charm ( Wingardium Leviosa ) allows the user to target an object and lift it using mahou and chakra to do so. This allows even First years to lift items heavier then they normally would be able to. This allows the user to levitate and lift items in front of him should the need arise, proving him with either cover or a way to defend. Despite its strengths, however, the Levitation Charm has one notable flaw: it does not work on human beings. This can target items up to mid range away. It can't destroy or harm objects though it can be used to transform objects into projectiles. The object will leviate while focus is maintained preventing the use of simultaneous techniques.
C Rank
Disarming Charm: - Supplementary
The Disarming Charm ( Expelliarmus ) is a charm which forces the target to release whatever they were holding at the time. This happens by the wave hitting the target and triggers a "knee jerk" reaction on contact that causes a muscle spasm that releases the weapon. The Disarming Charm causes whatever an opponent is holding at the time to fly high out of their reach, landing 5 meters away. The Disarming Charm always appears as a jet of red light; indeed, this is one of the things that makes it recognisable before the effects of the charm are seen. This can be used up to mid range away from the user.
B Rank

The Banishing Charm (Depulso) is the counter-charm to the Summoning Charm. As Accio summons objects to the caster, Depulso sends objects away, backwards to mid range away. Unlike the Summoning Charm, which can summon specific objects from anywhere, the Banishing Charm banishes whatever the wand is aimed at. This works by creating a semi circle around the user, filling his short range radius as he wills it forward in the direction his wand is aimed, pushing outwards as it repels anything unranked or up to B rank, pushing it back with equal momentum as it possesses.

Capitalizing on the momentary advantage she acquired after witnessing Constantine launch the bolt of energy at the dragon, Amara acted. Weaving a second set of three hand seals, identical to the first, while infusing it with chakra from her Cursed Seal, Amara created a mass of Prana forming a hemisphere around Constantine. The sphere would form six meters from his position in all directions and would be black and grey in color. The sphere would, upon creation, absorb the bolt of energy and transport it to the throne due to its superior strength. Following this, the barrier would collapse inward upon Constantine transporting all it came in contact with to the throne. The visual would leave a small crater in the terrain in its wake as it moved inward. Upon making contact with Constantine, he would be instantly frozen whole by the powerful ambient energy. Above, Balerion would survive having been protected by the barrier of Prana that intercepted the bolt of energy. He would continue to circle above, waiting for a command from Amara.
(Kanki: Kigen no Kamigami) – Surge of Evocation: Era of Gods
Type: Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary
Rank: D-S
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 10-40 + 10 = 50
Damage Points: N/A
Description: This technique encompasses the basic applications of the Surge of Evocation. The Surge of Evocation is the usage of Prana in its raw and unrefined form; whatever this Prana touches is transformed into ethereal energy and transported to the Throne. Prana will neutralize and be neutralized by techniques that possess the same amount of chakra. Similarly it will be useless against attacks of greater chakra and will not be weakened by techniques of lower chakra. However when used on living targets this ambient energy will feel extremely frigid to the touch and induce cold burns on contact or even freeze a target solid for higher ranked applications. D to B-Rank uses will inflict cold burns as well as all of the effects of frostbite. A-Rank uses will cause necrosis of the afflicted parts of the body, making them appear dark purple and bruised to signify the death of cells. Affected appendages and organs will cease to function, becoming completely immobile in the case of limbs. S rank uses will freeze the struck targets solid. In the case of Surgebinders, who are immune to all of the above effects, they will be transported to the Throne when struck by the prana of another member of their clan. Era of Gods can be split into three separate applications, all based on the same principle: constructs, armors, and familiars made of prana energy.
Pride of Gilgamesh – Gates of Babylon
The Pride of Gilgamesh allows the user to produce Prana either from the user’s body or on the battlefield. The Prana can only be manifested within short-range of the opponent if the user is also within that range, in which it must be created a minimum of one meter away. This restriction does not apply if the user chooses to release the Prana from their body, rather than manifest it away from themselves. The energy can be released from the body via various hand signs depending on the user's rank in the clan. This can be done to generate constructs bound only by the rank of technique used and one’s imagination; alternatively the user can simplify the application by creating streams, waves, and constructs of Prana. Manifested Prana is capable of taking solid form, granting tangibility at the user’s volition. Non-projectile uses of this technique are capable of levitating and can be governed through mental commands and a sustained chakra cost. B-Ranks and below are sustained through 5 chakra per turn, A-Ranks and above require 10 chakra per turn. Created constructs will last three turns per usage unless they are prematurely cancelled. S-Rank applications can only be used once every three turns and no Prana in the user’s next turn.
Embrace of Ishtar – Armory of Akkadia
This variant allows the user to manifest armors, auras, and coatings of Prana around their body. This can be used to enshroud a single or multiple body parts in a layer of colored energy. These defenses can be made to fit the body like conventional armors or enveloping it in a formless manner. The first type can be created with additional limbs and appendages such as wings which enable flight. The user can also constantly reshape it and create small-scale weapons from the body of the armor, though at the cost of one of the user's three moves. It should be noted that these constructs remain attached to the main body of the armor and so act as an extension of it. The second type generates a “flowing aura” that appears to flicker like an open flame. This aura is often made as an upwards column that is streamed into the sky with its base remaining around the user. It should be noted that its power is not split or divided as all of the Prana energy is part of one whole. The armors can exhibit tangibility, although this does not hinder the user’s techniques and their passing which can freely move in and out of the armor per the user’s will. B-Rank and below applications require being sustained with 5 chakra per turn while A and S Ranks require 10 chakra per turn. This technique can last a maximum of three turns. S-Rank applications can be used twice per battle. After an S-Rank application expires the user is unable to utilize Prana single turn.
Divinity of Merlin – Garden of Avalon
The Divinity of Merlin allows the user to produce Prana in the same way as the Pride of Gilgamesh and can be shaped in the same way, limited by rank and imagination. However, unlike the Pride of Gilgamesh which creates static constructs the Divinity of Merlin creates constructs imbued with a limited form of sentience – familiars. These familiars can be created anywhere on the battlefield, with the exception of short-range of the opponent unless the user is also within that range; in this case the familiar cannot be created within two meters of the opponent. This restriction does not apply if the user chooses to release the Prana from their body. Familiars are capable of taking numerous shapes, not simply limited to animals. These familiars are also capable of taking solid form at the user’s volition. Familiars are capable of remaining on the battlefield for four turns. B-Ranks and below are sustained through 5 chakra per turn, A-Ranks and above require 10 chakra per turn. S-Rank applications can only be used twice times per battle and no Prana in the user’s next turn.
Note: The upper echelon of the clan (Servants and above) are capable of using this technique without hand signs for B-rank and below. A-rank will require two hand signs and S-rank requires three.
Note: The lower tier clan members (Phantasms to Guardians) will require 5 to 3 hand seals for all ranks, decreasing as they they ascend in rank.
(Jūinjutsu: Kishō Meian) – Cursed Seal: Insignia of Duality (Passive)
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: N/A
Chakra: N/A (+10 chakra cost to applied techniques)
Damage: N/A
Description: The Insignia of Duality is a potent dual talisman-based Cursed Seal first utilized by Galahad to seal his sister Amara over concerns of her corruption and power. The Insignia is a unique seal in its nature, but simple and common place in its application and mechanics. Much like the generic Sealing Tag the Insignia of Duality is utilized by an individual who wishes to seal another living being. However, unlike the Sealing Tag, this technique requires two talismans: one which bears the user’s chakra to initiate the seal, and the other which bears the sealed individual; the Light and Darkness of Duality. The seal’s basic mechanics are simple: the Light talisman requires the user’s chakra to initiate the Dark talisman to seal its victim. Through contact with the opposing seal the bearer is capable of sealing away the opposite, as such Light can seal Dark, and Dark can seal Light. This direct physical contact requires the wielder to bear the opposite talisman on their person while also maintaining physical contact for over two turns. After two turns the bearer of the opposite talisman will be instantly sealed within it. Like many seals those who are sealed away become exempt from the physical world entering a form of stasis preventing their bodies from aging. Unique to the Insignia of Duality the only one incapable of unsealing the individual within their respective talisman is the bearer of the opposite. As such, anyone who is not the bearer of Light or Dark can unseal the victim simply by making contact with the seal and expending 30 chakra. Additionally, unique to the Insignia of Duality, is its ability to detect the emotional state of the opposing talisman. It has been frequently shown that techniques and chakra can contain the emotions and consciousness of the user. And because Sealing Techniques have been noted to be able to seal metaphysical aspects of reality as well as convey communication through techniques such as Scroll Communication the talismans become able to sense the emotional state of its wielder. As such each talisman can sense its opposite; Light and Darkness become able to feel the anger, sadness, fear, doubt, and other emotions of the other. This does not convey locational sensory or any other form of chakra sensory. simply the cosmetic ability of sensing the emotional state of the opposite. Because of the Insignia’s unique design it can only be taught and bestowed upon pairs of individuals, effectively connecting their biographies – one which bears the Light, and one which bears the Dark. As such, this technique can only be taught to one other person.
Each talisman also possesses certain unique capabilities as well, offered to both bearers regardless if they are sealed or unsealed. The chakra which forged these talismans is capable of being passively released into the user’s techniques, much like the leaking of the Cursed Seal of Heaven and Earth’s ability to influence the user’s techniques. This is reflected through a limited and passive form of the transformation technique applied upon the user’s techniques causing them to change coloration at the user’s will. While coloration can be influenced, and is purely cosmetic, techniques cannot become invisible, transparent, or translucent, through this technique. Although their color scheme can be altered to fit any color within the visible light spectrum, as well as cause the complete lack and removal of light to create absolute darkness. This requires the user expend 10 additional chakra.
Capitalizing on the momentary advantage she acquired after witnessing Constantine launch the bolt of energy at the dragon, Amara acted. Weaving a second set of three hand seals, identical to the first, while infusing it with chakra from her Cursed Seal, Amara created a mass of Prana forming a hemisphere around Constantine.

The Divinity of Merlin allows the user to produce Prana in the same way as the Pride of Gilgamesh and can be shaped in the same way, limited by rank and imagination. However, unlike the Pride of Gilgamesh which creates static constructs the Divinity of Merlin creates constructs imbued with a limited form of sentience – familiars. These familiars can be created anywhere on the battlefield, with the exception of short-range of the opponent unless the user is also within that range; in this case the familiar cannot be created within two meters of the opponent.

While coloration can be influenced, and is purely cosmetic, techniques cannot become invisible, transparent, or translucent, through this technique. Although their color scheme can be altered to fit any color within the visible light spectrum, as well as cause the complete lack and removal of light to create absolute darkness. This requires the user expend 10 additional chakra.
Upon seeing more of Amara's Prana swirl into existence around him, forming a hemisphere above ground, Constantine would roll his eyes and groan in annoyance. "Doton Mahou," he would chant, waving his wand and focusing his chakra into the ground below him. In a 5x5 meter of circular area around Constantine, with the wizard standing in the epicenter, the ground would rapidly descend, lowering Constnatine beyond the reach of the Prana as it closes in on itself. The result would effectively be the Prana sphere being wasted, with Constantine lowered 7 meters below.
(Doton: Daichidōkaku) - Earth Release: Great Moving Earth Core
Type: Supplementary/Defensive
Rank: S
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 40
Damage: N/A
Description: This technique grants the user the ability to freely lower or raise the terrain within a specific area surrounding them, in a similar manner to its parent technique, albeit on a much larger scale. The user will slam his hands on the ground which he can then lower or raise the ground up to 100 meters in a large section. The rise will be fast enough to pin enemies to the ground, restricting their movements as they struggle to get up and the drop will be fast enough to leave almost all enemies without a footing (albeit not airborne). Because of the large chakra needed to alter such a large area of the terrain, the user will be able to use it only a limited number of times.
Note: Can only be used twice.
As the ground lowers beneath Constantine, he would look up inquisitively at the dark energy as it collapsed in on itself above the hole. It bore no recognition to him, something he was rather uncomfortable with. With no more than a though, Constantine would activate the full potential of his Legilimency. Rather than simply hearing the thoughts of the muggle before him, her mind would become as open to Constantine as a common book. Focusing on her ability, Constantine would invade her thoughts related to the Prana attack, learning what the energy was, the mechanics behind its interaction with other jutsu, and that it was enhanced by the talismans in his possession. With this information in mind, Constantine would reach into his coat with his free hand, fumbling with his tools as he prepares for further action.
( Legilimency ) - Legilimency
Type: Supplementary
Rank: B - A
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 20 - 30 ( -5 per turn for B rank, -10 for A rank )
Damage: N/A
Description: An innate and somewhat passive ability, Legilimency is the act of magically navigating through the many layers of a person's mind and correctly interpreting one's findings. Legilimens ( users of Legilimency ) are able to detect if a person is lying, as well as delve into their thoughts, emotions, and memories if their target is not skilled in blocking their minds. In most cases, this is not a harmful or detrimental ability, allowing the user a way to predict and understand the opponent's movements and actions with the utmost clarity. While it is similar to reading minds, it should be noted that Legilimency is not as simple as the muggle art of mind-reading; mind-reading assumes that one is simply eavesdropping on the thoughts currently running through the head of another. Legilimency, however, requires the wizard to navigate and move through the various areas of the brain. In it's lowest levels ( B rank ), the user is able to utilize it in a way similar to "mind reading", allowing the user to 'read' the opponent's current thoughts and ones related to them at that moment. This is the basic level of Legilimency and once active, lasts until the user ends it's usage. With training and power, this ability and range increases. At A rank power the user becomes capable of actual navigating the target's mind and it's many layers. This is as harmless as the B rank variant. However, despite all of this, this ability isn't without drawback. The A-Rank version requires the target to be within mid-range while the B-Rank version works up to long-range (one landmark for normal members, two for House Heads and three for the Headmaster).
Note: Although the B rank version is a passive ability honed when the user reaches Year 6, he cannot use the A rank and higher versions without actually actively using this jutsu.
Note: A rank usage can allow one to simply navigate the mind.
Note: A rank usage can only be used once every four turns, lasting 3 turns each usage and requiring a two turn usage break in between A rank and higher usages.
Note: Must place within bio stating the user is a Legilimens

Immediately sensing the movement of the earth, as well as sensing the chakra within it, Amara deduces a change in Constantine's elevation and immediately weaves two hand seals; she follows this by slamming her hands against the ground, converting the surface beneath Constantine, after the surface had lowered, into a viscous swamp-like mud. Simultaneously, Balerion would commence its sky-dive at Constantine. He would slam into the mud creating immense devastation, freezing Constantine and transporting the surrounding terrain to the Throne.
(Doton: Yomi Numa) - Earth Style: Swamp of the Underworld
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 30
Damage: N/A
Description: The user will first perform Boar → Tiger and then by changing the surface of an object beneath an enemy into mud and creating a non flammable swamp, the user can sink his enemy into the mud. The adhesive, chakra-infused mud ensnares the enemy's body, making it almost impossible to recover one's strength and escape from the swamp. The size and depth of the created swamp depends on the user's skill and the amount of chakra used, but if the user is an expert in this technique, it will always be possible to make a fair-sized swamp which is extremely effective against a great number of enemies or when having to face gigantic creatures.

As the ground changes consistency, softening and sinking inwards beneath Constantine's feet, he would simply wave his wand with the incantation "Obtestor," similar to before. However, rather than summon forth an anvil as he did before, Constantine would conjure two marionettes, floating besides his body, forged from wood and steel. One of the marionettes would be twice the size of Constantine, with the other being just as large as himself with the same shape.
The larger marionette would be formed in a form that resembles a centaur; at the humanoid construct's waist, its body would branch, it's legs split and protruding forward with a wooden platform connecting the two halves of its legs, large enough for Constantine to stand/sit on. This side would be facing Constantine. On the back of the marionette would be a large drill, made of steel that would be spinning rapidly upon formation. The drill would be much larger than the marionette's upper "body," allowing it to easily drill into the earth before it. Constantine would mentally manipulate one of the marionette's long arms(both would be formed in the middle of its torso side by side, rather than coming from the sides) to reach over and grab him, pulling him from the mud before he could sink very far and drop him onto the wooden platform before he propels it forward, drilling through the earth away from the swamp and out of the Balerion's range as it charges downwards wildly through the ground. The marionette would also have two "barricades" at its sides and top, closing in once Constantine is safely seated in order to avoid any dirt or rocks displaced from the drilling from getting to him on the platform.
The second marionette would be created with a similar drill, drilling through the earth in the opposite direction, also controlled by Constantine and out of the Balerion's range/scale before doubling back upwards towards the surface.
( Transfiguration ) - Transfiguration
Type: Supplementary / Offensive / Defensive
Rank: D-S
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 10 - 40
Damage: 20 - 80
Description: Transfiguration is a field of mahou that deals with changing the form and appearance of an object, animal, or person. Different to other forms of mahou in radical ways, many wizards have difficulty grasping the fundamentals of Transfiguration due to its strict nature, every aspect of the spell must be done correctly for a Transfiguration to be completed. Often requiring firm and decisive wand movements, Transfiguration mahou is (along with charms) almost the signature mahou of the Kisei, as wizards are commonly thought of as making things appear or disappear. The mahou takes the form of a beam of magical energy that ( if it successfully hits the target ) transfigures upon contact. Transfiguration is divided into four main branches/applications:
Transformation - Supplementary ( D - S )
Thought of as the most basic of the four types of Transfiguration, transformation spells focus on deforming the physical features of an object. All Transformation spells are triggered with the spell ( Permuto ). Transformations are divided within 2 types, easily seen based on their applications and targets. The first Basic Transformations, reminiscent of the Transformation and Combination jutsus, are transformations that change the physical properties of a targeted item. This allows the user to change the properties of an item to give it new traits or properties. The user is able to transfigure a solid into a liquid or another solid, a liquid into a solid or into a gas/another liquid, or a gas into a liquid or another gas, all of proportionate size and directed at speeds based on the natural speed of the item manipulated. These items can only be basic items in the sense of they cannot turn something into the properties of an element the user does not have, nor can they change the properties of something created by another Kisei unless with equal or higher power/chakra. Of course, the amount of chakra used must exceed the amount of chakra present in the object being transformed for any change unless the object has no chakra present in it at all ( like a simple chair, stone, pool of water, etc ) in which case it is transformable with a simple D rank application of the spell for small things A for larger things. With an S rank application, the user is able to transfigure his own person and take on temporary enhancements such as using mahou to transfigure his upper body into that of a shark, or his legs into that of a bear, etc, and can only lasts up to 2 turns each usage and can only be used 3 times. The second, Switching greatly resembles general transformation, but with with two main differences: firstly, the features of the two targets are switched simultaneously; secondly, the change in one of the pair is dependent on a change in the other. For example, if the armor on a statue is targeted with the user's clothes, then the two items will be "switched", akin to the outcome of Substitution jutsu. The restriction applied specifically to this type the items must be of comparative size and within mid range of one another. Transformations of any kind can only be used once every 2 turns and cannot target sentient (living) beings besides the user and their own summons. Through Switching, nothing harmful can be switched onto the opponent's body/person. Transfiguration of the terrain spreads out gradually from where the beam strikes, with only A-Rank and above uses being capable of converting the battlefield up to long-range. Transfigurations up to B-Rank can be done without the beam, using only wand movements and incantations. They can can convert a mid-range area at most but cannot be used on anything within short-range of the opponent (e.g. the mid-range area cannot extend to anything within 5 meters of the target). The beam travels slightly faster than a standard wind technique while the beamless usage manifests itself on the target, similar to Switching.
Vanishment: - Defensive ( A )
A purely "A" ranked spell, requiring the use of only a single incantation to vanish almost any object ( Evanesco ). Vanishment is the art of using Mahou to cause objects to go into a state of non being; essentially, making it so that the object does not exist anymore. While called vanishing spells, it should be noted that the title is a bit misleading; while items it makes contact with are “erased”, they do not vanish entirely from existence. When the vanishing spell makes contact, the chakra within it causes it to cause the targeted item to collapse inwards on itself, appearing to fold into space rapidly as it is destroyed. However, this branch of conjuration is unable to be used on objects infused with chakra above A rank. This also isn't capable of being used on the opponent nor any animal or living being. Upon the beam making contact, the item vanishes in a thin mist proportionate to the item vanished, a thinly veiled yet visible mist left behind that doesn’t hinder vision. Usable once every 3 turns. Target is left vanished for 3 turns. Conjuration - Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary ( D - S )[A]
The most difficult branch of Transfiguration, conjuration deals with the usage of Mahou to create objects from nothing. Conjurations are done with the use of the incantation (Obtestor). With a usage from D-S, the user is able to conjure anything he desires within reason from chairs to swords. However, being the most useful facet of Transfiguration, also leads conjuration to be the most restricted. Nothing within the realms of custom elements, for example, can be summoned. The user could not conjure a "sword that cuts through anything" or an unbreakable shield for example. The Conjured objects are imbued with a measure of mahou, ranging from D-S rank and guided by the user's wand at speeds up to twice as fast as the user's speed. Conjured objects last a maximum of 4 turns before automatically fading away, draining 10 chakra per turn. Additionally, the user is unable to conjure people or sentient/living beings, or anything within short range of the opponent. Additionally, when several items are conjured, the rank of said conjuration is split evenly. S ranked Conjurations can only last 3 turns and be used 3 times in all.
Untransfiguration - Supplementary ( B )
The final branch of Transfiguration magic, and perhaps the second simplest (behind transformation). Untransfiguration deals simply with undoing the effects of a previous Transfiguration, turning something back to its original state, and undoing a conjuration. The amount of magic used in the Untransfiguration is at constant rank of 'B'. Mostly used when students perform a Transfiguration incorrectly, or when the user wishes to return something to its original shape. The incantation used is ( Reparifarge).
Note: S rank applications are usable only by Year 5 Kisei and higher.
Note: After S rank variants have been used, the user cannot use any version S rank and above the next turn.
Note: Only usable by members of the Kisei clan.
As Constantine commands the marionettes to carry him, drilling through the earth, he would sit comfortably on the platform, the marionette's arm holding onto his without obstructing its ability to move in order to keep him from falling off. With another wave of his wand and the incantation "Ninjutsu Mahou," a Shadow Clone would poof into existence besides Constantine on the platform, the marionette's other arm holding it in place along with the original.
(Kage Bunshin no Jutsu) - Shadow Clone Technique
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20 (total chakra is divided by the final number of clones plus the user)
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The Kage Bunshin distributes the ninja's chakra evenly among the clones and himself and creates a real copy with form and substance. The clones, a max number of 4, are capable of performing techniques on their own and can even bleed, but will usually disperse after hit by a strong enough force, returning 10% of its individual chakra to the user. Shadow clones can't be distinguished from the original with Sharingan, Byakugan, Rinnegan or normal Chakra Sensing. The clone itself can also utilize any jutsu the original ninja knows. When the clone finally disperses, any new knowledge it has gained is passed back to the original ninja and any additional clones.
As the ground changes consistency, softening and sinking inwards beneath Constantine's feet, he would simply wave his wand with the incantation "Obtestor," similar to before. However, rather than summon forth an anvil as he did before, Constantine would conjure two marionettes, floating besides his body, forged from wood and steel.

The marionette would also have two "barricades" at its sides and top, closing in once Constantine is safely seated in order to avoid any dirt or rocks displaced from the drilling from getting to him on the platform.
The second marionette would be created with a similar drill, drilling through the earth in the opposite direction, also controlled by Constantine and out of the Balerion's range/scale before doubling back upwards towards the surface.

Note: Only usable by members of the Kisei clan.
As Constantine commands the marionettes to carry him, drilling through the earth, he would sit comfortably on the platform, the marionette's arm holding onto his without obstructing its ability to move in order to keep him from falling off. With another wave of his wand and the incantation "Ninjutsu Mahou," a Shadow Clone would poof into existence besides Constantine on the platform, the marionette's other arm holding it in place along with the original.
(Kage Bunshin no Jutsu) - Shadow Clone Technique
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20 (total chakra is divided by the final number of clones plus the user)
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The Kage Bunshin distributes the ninja's chakra evenly among the clones and himself and creates a real copy with form and substance. The clones, a max number of 4, are capable of performing techniques on their own and can even bleed, but will usually disperse after hit by a strong enough force, returning 10% of its individual chakra to the user. Shadow clones can't be distinguished from the original with Sharingan, Byakugan, Rinnegan or normal Chakra Sensing. The clone itself can also utilize any jutsu the original ninja knows. When the clone finally disperses, any new knowledge it has gained is passed back to the original ninja and any additional clones.
Sensing her opponent burrow into the earth on some creation Amara weaves two hand seals. Manipulating the bountiful earth beneath her feet she takes action. Through both her motion sensory and chakra sensory she discovers Constantine's location, and his puppets, with ease and focuses Mawscape chakra throughout the earth around them. In a sudden and simultaneous burst the earth would be converted into a Mawscape structure mid-range all around beneath the surface. The drills that Constantine's dolls were using would prove ineffective and he would suddenly be halted. However, rather than simply halted, the earthen cavern that was created by Constantine would blacken and produce deadly spikes all surrounding Constantine in all directions. They would lunge out to impale him and his marionettes. Within the same timeframe as the Mawscape technique, Amara would have activated the Armor of the Armadillo in order to empower her Earth and Earth based techniques with an additional layer of rubble to increase their strength.
Type: Offensive, Defensive, Supplementary
Rank: D – S (S)
Range: Short – Long
Chakra: 10 – 40
Damage: 20 – 80 (80 + 20 = 100)
Description: This technique allows the user to produce Mawscape from either their body or a source of Earth. Sagittarius’s Expanse is capable of producing a plethora of objects, tools, and constructs essentially limited by the rank of the technique applied and the user’s own imagination. As constructs of Mawscape they possess the ability to absorb all light, effectively causing them to become a void of absolute darkness. As such the constructs will appear as two dimensional, even to Doujutsu wielders, making them incredibly deceptive and impossible to perceive their depth and dimensions. When utilized in a source of natural light the constructs of Mawscape will be hot to the touch due to their high level of emissivity; this creates a potent dual form of damage causing burns to those who come into contact with it. This effect is amplified when coming into contact with higher forms of light. A-Rank applications can be used with a single hand seal. S-Rank applications can be used four times per battle with two hand seals. S-Rank applications cannot be used in consecutive turns and the user is unable to use Mawscape above A-Rank in the following turn.
(Doton: Arumajiro no yoroi)- Earth Release: Armour of the Armadillo
Type: Supplementary
Rank: B
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: N/A(+10 to chakra cost to techniques)
Damage: N/A(+20 to Earth techniques)
Description: This is the brother technique to Earth Release: Rubble Creation. Unlike its counterpart, this technique is more passive in nature. This user activates an ability which allows them to infuse additional Earth chakra into their own Earth-based techniques(includes Earth-based KG/CEs). As a result, any subsequent Earth technique performed by the user would emerge with an additional layer of rubble around it. The earthen particles coating the technique would be jagged and abrasive in nature. Hence, this grants the original Earth technique an extra dimension, in terms of its offensive potential, as it allows the original Earth technique to deal additional damage. In other words, all Earth techniques used while this is active grant a sort of ‘shredding’ property, which in turn, allows it to deal more damage than it originally would. For example, for techniques such as Destructive Rock Rising Pillars, the pillars that rise would be coated with the aforementioned particles, thus becoming somewhat abrasive(coupled along with its original blunt destructive power). The added mass also aids in its destructive potential. For techniques such as the Hardening technique, the rocks would be coated with more rubble, which would make it more ‘abrasive’ to the touch, and allow it to deal more damage(when used offensively). It would also serve as an additional defensive mechanism, and would grant the technique the ability to defend against techniques with 20 more damage points than usual. The rubble used for this technique must either originate from the terrain itself, or extruded from the user’s body itself. This means that for the most part, this technique only works on projectile-type techniques, and terrain manipulation techniques. This technique may not be used to enhance mud techniques. Activating this ability does not require any time whatsoever and is instant. This is because it does not do anything when used independently, and its effects are only realized when another earth-based technique is used.
Notes:
-Can only be used 4x per battle
-Lasts for 3 turns
-Technique may be deactivated at any time
Sensing her opponent burrow into the earth on some creation Amara weaves two hand seals. Manipulating the bountiful earth beneath her feet she takes action. Through both her motion sensory and chakra sensory she discovers Constantine's location, and his puppets, with ease and focuses Mawscape chakra throughout the earth around them. In a sudden and simultaneous burst the earth would be converted into a Mawscape structure mid-range all around beneath the surface. The drills that Constantine's dolls were using would prove ineffective and he would suddenly be halted. However, rather than simply halted, the earthen cavern that was created by Constantine would blacken and produce deadly spikes all surrounding Constantine in all directions. They would lunge out to impale him and his marionettes. Within the same timeframe as the Mawscape technique, Amara would have activated the Armor of the Armadillo in order to empower her Earth and Earth based techniques with an additional layer of rubble to increase their strength.
Type: Offensive, Defensive, Supplementary
Rank: D – S (S)
Range: Short – Long
Chakra: 10 – 40
Damage: 20 – 80 (80 + 20 = 100)
Description: This technique allows the user to produce Mawscape from either their body or a source of Earth. Sagittarius’s Expanse is capable of producing a plethora of objects, tools, and constructs essentially limited by the rank of the technique applied and the user’s own imagination. As constructs of Mawscape they possess the ability to absorb all light, effectively causing them to become a void of absolute darkness. As such the constructs will appear as two dimensional, even to Doujutsu wielders, making them incredibly deceptive and impossible to perceive their depth and dimensions. When utilized in a source of natural light the constructs of Mawscape will be hot to the touch due to their high level of emissivity; this creates a potent dual form of damage causing burns to those who come into contact with it. This effect is amplified when coming into contact with higher forms of light. A-Rank applications can be used with a single hand seal. S-Rank applications can be used four times per battle with two hand seals. S-Rank applications cannot be used in consecutive turns and the user is unable to use Mawscape above A-Rank in the following turn.

Chakra: N/A(+10 to chakra cost to techniques)
Damage: N/A(+20 to Earth techniques)
Description: This is the brother technique to Earth Release: Rubble Creation. Unlike its counterpart, this technique is more passive in nature. This user activates an ability which allows them to infuse additional Earth chakra into their own Earth-based techniques(includes Earth-based KG/CEs). As a result, any subsequent Earth technique performed by the user would emerge with an additional layer of rubble around it. The earthen particles coating the technique would be jagged and abrasive in nature. Hence, this grants the original Earth technique an extra dimension, in terms of its offensive potential, as it allows the original Earth technique to deal additional damage. In other words, all Earth techniques used while this is active grant a sort of ‘shredding’ property, which in turn, allows it to deal more damage than it originally would. For example, for techniques such as Destructive Rock Rising Pillars, the pillars that rise would be coated with the aforementioned particles, thus becoming somewhat abrasive(coupled along with its original blunt destructive power). The added mass also aids in its destructive potential. For techniques such as the Hardening technique, the rocks would be coated with more rubble, which would make it more ‘abrasive’ to the touch, and allow it to deal more damage(when used offensively).

As Constantine's marionette digs through the earth, Amara had infused her chakra into the soil, suddenly transforming the ground into Mawscape and causing it to release spikes towards Constantine as it did so. The second Constantine's marionette stalled against the transformed ground, halting its movement, he would know something would be wrong. Thinking quickly, Constantine would release from his body a surge of chakra, manifesting as a barrier that permeate through the field instantly. The barrier's absorptive properties would allow it to sap away a portion of the Mawscape's power, reducing it and the spikes extending from down to 25% of its power(75 damage).
(Fuuin: Bachi no Kindachi) - Sealing Technique: Damocles, The Curse of Kings
Type: Defensive/Supplementary
Rank: S
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 40 (80 chakra for double usage)
Damage: N/A
Description: The user will have four seals on their body (must be stated in the biography) with the Kanji for “Curse” that can be passively activated (instant but still counts as a move) whenever the opponent uses a technique. The seal will will release an intangible barrier that expands outwards in all directions. The barrier instantly reaches long-range in every direction and serves to absorb chakra from the given technique in order to weaken it by a quarter . The amount of chakra absorbed is proportional to the power of the technique but one thing that remains the same is that the remaining technique will fall to three-quarters it's original power i.e. a 120 damage technique would fall to 90 damage (Forbidden Rank). The barrier is destroyed soon after coming into contact with the technique if it exceeds a traditional S-Rank in power but not before it leeches a quarter of it’s chakra in order to weaken it by the same degree. The user can instead activate two barriers rather than one to reduce the targeted technique to half it’s original power rather than a quarter. This will count as two of the user’s three moves per turn. This means this technique does not counter other jutsu in itself but rather aids the user in countering more powerful techniques by weakening them. Due to the barrier’s intangibility, it will can work on solid techniques as well as liquids, gases and energy-based techniques. It will also only shatter against non-physical techniques due to their ability to clash with the intangible barrier. The reason this seal needs to be passively activated (still counts as a move) is so the user can use a technique in the same-timeframe to counter the opponent's weakened jutsu. This technique can be used thrice per battle, be it three usages of the single version, three usages of the double version or any variation/combination of the two.
Note: Can only be used three times per battle
Note: No Fuuinjutsu techniques can be used in the user's same and next turn (when single version is used)
Note: No Fuuinjutsu techniques can be used in the user's same and next two turns (when double version is used)
Simultaneously, Constantine would use one of his hands to wave his wand while chanting "Raiton Mahou," creating around him a dragon composed of pure lightning. Due to lightning's natural strength to Amara's mawscape(60 damage lightning clashes equally with 80 damage Mawscape, the Mawscape is now 75 damage), the lightning would destroy the spikes before they could touch Constantine, spreading outwards as it grows in size and cleaves its way through the Mawscape and earth. The result would be a larger cavern cleared away even further, leaving Constantine unharmed though his marionettes could not be saved. As he created the lightning, Constantine would remove from his coat two wires attached to kunai, holding it in his free hand while he waved with the other.
(Raiton: Rairyu no Tatsumaki) - Lightning Release: Thunder Dragon Tornado
Type: Offensive
Rank: A
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 30
Damage: 60
Description: The user forms a whirling vortex of electricity around themselves. The vortex will take on the form of a dragon’s head and will grow to then shoot forward and cover the area in front of them. Even if the attack doesn't directly connect with his foe, the lightning can jump from the vortex to hit a nearby target.
Immediately after the creation of the lightning, Constantine would raise up the kunai attached to the string and wave his wand once more, this time with the incantation "Permuto." The result would be the switching of the kunai and their wires with the two talisman Constantine learned of while pulling Amara's memories earlier, knowing they would turn the tides of the battle between the two greatly. The talismans would appear in Constantine's hand while the kunai would replace them on Amara's person, albeit causing no harm to her. Over the course of the entirety of his move, Constantine would retain a passive reading of Amara's mind, keeping tabs on her conscious decisions.
( Transfiguration ) - Transfiguration
Type: Supplementary / Offensive / Defensive
Rank: D-S
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 10 - 40
Damage: 20 - 80
Description: Transfiguration is a field of mahou that deals with changing the form and appearance of an object, animal, or person. Different to other forms of mahou in radical ways, many wizards have difficulty grasping the fundamentals of Transfiguration due to its strict nature, every aspect of the spell must be done correctly for a Transfiguration to be completed. Often requiring firm and decisive wand movements, Transfiguration mahou is (along with charms) almost the signature mahou of the Kisei, as wizards are commonly thought of as making things appear or disappear. The mahou takes the form of a beam of magical energy that ( if it successfully hits the target ) transfigures upon contact. Transfiguration is divided into four main branches/applications:
Transformation - Supplementary ( D - S )
Thought of as the most basic of the four types of Transfiguration, transformation spells focus on deforming the physical features of an object. All Transformation spells are triggered with the spell ( Permuto ). Transformations are divided within 2 types, easily seen based on their applications and targets. The first Basic Transformations, reminiscent of the Transformation and Combination jutsus, are transformations that change the physical properties of a targeted item. This allows the user to change the properties of an item to give it new traits or properties. The user is able to transfigure a solid into a liquid or another solid, a liquid into a solid or into a gas/another liquid, or a gas into a liquid or another gas, all of proportionate size and directed at speeds based on the natural speed of the item manipulated. These items can only be basic items in the sense of they cannot turn something into the properties of an element the user does not have, nor can they change the properties of something created by another Kisei unless with equal or higher power/chakra. Of course, the amount of chakra used must exceed the amount of chakra present in the object being transformed for any change unless the object has no chakra present in it at all ( like a simple chair, stone, pool of water, etc ) in which case it is transformable with a simple D rank application of the spell for small things A for larger things. With an S rank application, the user is able to transfigure his own person and take on temporary enhancements such as using mahou to transfigure his upper body into that of a shark, or his legs into that of a bear, etc, and can only lasts up to 2 turns each usage and can only be used 3 times. The second, Switching greatly resembles general transformation, but with with two main differences: firstly, the features of the two targets are switched simultaneously; secondly, the change in one of the pair is dependent on a change in the other. For example, if the armor on a statue is targeted with the user's clothes, then the two items will be "switched", akin to the outcome of Substitution jutsu. The restriction applied specifically to this type the items must be of comparative size and within mid range of one another. Transformations of any kind can only be used once every 2 turns and cannot target sentient (living) beings besides the user and their own summons. Through Switching, nothing harmful can be switched onto the opponent's body/person. Transfiguration of the terrain spreads out gradually from where the beam strikes, with only A-Rank and above uses being capable of converting the battlefield up to long-range. Transfigurations up to B-Rank can be done without the beam, using only wand movements and incantations. They can can convert a mid-range area at most but cannot be used on anything within short-range of the opponent (e.g. the mid-range area cannot extend to anything within 5 meters of the target). The beam travels slightly faster than a standard wind technique while the beamless usage manifests itself on the target, similar to Switching.
Vanishment: - Defensive ( A )
A purely "A" ranked spell, requiring the use of only a single incantation to vanish almost any object ( Evanesco ). Vanishment is the art of using Mahou to cause objects to go into a state of non being; essentially, making it so that the object does not exist anymore. While called vanishing spells, it should be noted that the title is a bit misleading; while items it makes contact with are “erased”, they do not vanish entirely from existence. When the vanishing spell makes contact, the chakra within it causes it to cause the targeted item to collapse inwards on itself, appearing to fold into space rapidly as it is destroyed. However, this branch of conjuration is unable to be used on objects infused with chakra above A rank. This also isn't capable of being used on the opponent nor any animal or living being. Upon the beam making contact, the item vanishes in a thin mist proportionate to the item vanished, a thinly veiled yet visible mist left behind that doesn’t hinder vision. Usable once every 3 turns. Target is left vanished for 3 turns.
Conjuration - Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary ( D - S )
The most difficult branch of Transfiguration, conjuration deals with the usage of Mahou to create objects from nothing. Conjurations are done with the use of the incantation (Obtestor). With a usage from D-S, the user is able to conjure anything he desires within reason from chairs to swords. However, being the most useful facet of Transfiguration, also leads conjuration to be the most restricted. Nothing within the realms of custom elements, for example, can be summoned. The user could not conjure a "sword that cuts through anything" or an unbreakable shield for example. The Conjured objects are imbued with a measure of mahou, ranging from D-S rank and guided by the user's wand at speeds up to twice as fast as the user's speed. Conjured objects last a maximum of 4 turns before automatically fading away, draining 10 chakra per turn. Additionally, the user is unable to conjure people or sentient/living beings, or anything within short range of the opponent. Additionally, when several items are conjured, the rank of said conjuration is split evenly. S ranked Conjurations can only last 3 turns and be used 3 times in all.
Untransfiguration - Supplementary ( B )
The final branch of Transfiguration magic, and perhaps the second simplest (behind transformation). Untransfiguration deals simply with undoing the effects of a previous Transfiguration, turning something back to its original state, and undoing a conjuration. The amount of magic used in the Untransfiguration is at constant rank of 'B'. Mostly used when students perform a Transfiguration incorrectly, or when the user wishes to return something to its original shape. The incantation used is ( Reparifarge).
Note: S rank applications are usable only by Year 5 Kisei and higher.
Note: After S rank variants have been used, the user cannot use any version S rank and above the next turn.
Note: Only usable by members of the Kisei clan.
( Legilimency ) - Legilimency Passive/Frame of reference
Type: Supplementary
Rank: B - A
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 20 - 30 ( -5 per turn for B rank, -10 for A rank )
Damage: N/A
Description: An innate and somewhat passive ability, Legilimency is the act of magically navigating through the many layers of a person's mind and correctly interpreting one's findings. Legilimens ( users of Legilimency ) are able to detect if a person is lying, as well as delve into their thoughts, emotions, and memories if their target is not skilled in blocking their minds. In most cases, this is not a harmful or detrimental ability, allowing the user a way to predict and understand the opponent's movements and actions with the utmost clarity. While it is similar to reading minds, it should be noted that Legilimency is not as simple as the muggle art of mind-reading; mind-reading assumes that one is simply eavesdropping on the thoughts currently running through the head of another. Legilimency, however, requires the wizard to navigate and move through the various areas of the brain. In it's lowest levels ( B rank ), the user is able to utilize it in a way similar to "mind reading", allowing the user to 'read' the opponent's current thoughts and ones related to them at that moment. This is the basic level of Legilimency and once active, lasts until the user ends it's usage. With training and power, this ability and range increases. At A rank power the user becomes capable of actual navigating the target's mind and it's many layers. This is as harmless as the B rank variant. However, despite all of this, this ability isn't without drawback. The A-Rank version requires the target to be within mid-range while the B-Rank version works up to long-range (one landmark for normal members, two for House Heads and three for the Headmaster).
Note: Although the B rank version is a passive ability honed when the user reaches Year 6, he cannot use the A rank and higher versions without actually actively using this jutsu.
Note: A rank usage can allow one to simply navigate the mind.
Note: A rank usage can only be used once every four turns, lasting 3 turns each usage and requiring a two turn usage break in between A rank and higher usages.
Note: Must place within bio stating the user is a Legilimens

The barrier instantly reaches long-range in every direction and serves to absorb chakra from the given technique in order to weaken it by a quarter .

The barrier is destroyed soon after coming into contact with the technique if it exceeds a traditional S-Rank in power but not before it leeches a quarter of it’s chakra in order to weaken it by the same degree. The user can instead activate two barriers rather than one to reduce the targeted technique to half it’s original power rather than a quarter. This will count as two of the user’s three moves per turn.

This technique can be used thrice per battle, be it three usages of the single version, three usages of the double version or any variation/combination of the two.
Note: Can only be used three times per battle
Note: No Fuuinjutsu techniques can be used in the user's same and next turn (when single version is used)
Note: No Fuuinjutsu techniques can be used in the user's same and next two turns (when double version is used)

Sensing the creation of the lightning dragon in the collapsing pit Amara channels chakra through her legs. From her feet copious quantities of thick, powerful black hair puncture the ground and plummet into the shattering earth, doing so silently. They burrow quickly but efficiently making their way to the clearing created by Constantine's techniques. Once the strands of hair burst from the earth they split further and lunge out toward Constantine to strike him from all sides; the hair at its ends would, with its incredible strength and durability, puncture the body at multiple angles.
