The Sapling So-Sul

NAME:
→ Guumjiche | Nine-Yin-Body Type

TYPE:
→ Alkahestry: Qi Manipulation

LEVEL:
→ 1

FORM:
→ Right wrist shackle.


BRIEFING:
→ So-sul built upon the teachings of the Fang Clan's Qi Circulation to form a far more efficient and far more potent. As such she can draw in from the world itself to heighten her own, allowing her to focus her Qi and enhance her natural abilities to extraordinary levels. Through concentration, So-Sul can harness her spiritual energy, or Qi, to augment her physical and mental capabilities to even superhuman levels. Through the path of the Garden, she has discovered a new world to Qi and how it can better living. An ordinary man can become great, a crippled child can become healed, and the blind be made to see. However, the belief in the Gate stunts the natural growth and weakens the Qi. She prides herself on the fact that, even in amassing such dense Qi, she doesn't need to expend much of it to produce results. The techniques specializes in "Quality over quantity"

PICTURE: Concealed within the shackle on her right wrist is a pentagram.

SPECIAL ABILITIES:

→ Guumjiche allows her to take her cummulative Qi, and harness it to its fullest potential. Giving her the ability to heighten her physical and mental abilities to extraordinary heights. This is accomplished by focusing her Qi to her Tenketsu, and then either concentrating or allowing it to explode outward from her body. This either reinforces the muscles, or acts as a small explosive a few inches from her skin. This ability can allow her to either move at speeds that allow her to give off afterimages, raise her durability, increase her strength, or simply allow her to think more clearly and precisely. Currently, she can only release her Tenketsu in her legs and prioritizes speed. With more practice, she may be able to unlock more secrets.

1] Okay, this confuses me. Rule of thumb with Alkahestry and this Falun Gong/Garden thing is that by crossing over you can "harness your Qi" and make your alkahestric abilities more potent. But what your Alkahestry supposedly does is just cut out the middleman and remove the alkahestric abilities altogether.

The gist of this entire spiel is: she would need an ability in the first place to actually build upon and enhance, right? Thus, she'd need a pentagram of some description. As far as I'm aware, alkahestrists who cross over still need to use pentagrams.

Revised.

Okay, I've slept on this, and I still have some issues.

1] The "without form" is redundant now there's a pentagram. Update appropriately.

2] I'm not happy with the special abilities and the broadness of it all. Yes, she's seen the Garden and all; but she's still Level 1. And Level 1 means 1 process, and 1 ability. 1 being the magic number here.

This ability can allow her to either move at speeds that allow her to give off afterimages, raise her durability, increase her strength, or simply allow her to think more clearly and precisely.

That's hell in a handbasket at Level 1. Way too much stuff. Limit it to a single process.

Revised.

Intention was not to have them all at once, but only give her the option to one at a time, and build up to using multiples. Seeing as she could see her Tenketsu, she could alter the path easily, but it wouldn't have meant she could properly channel to different areas at the same time. If you know what I mean, but either way it's no big deal. Just wanted to explain my thought process.

Still, you need to be aware that she's going to only be able to manipulate the Qi in her legs as opposed to anywhere else at Level 1. The other areas won't be underpowered, or anything, she will simply enough not be able to perform alkahestry aside from this. That clear?

aye.

APPROVED

With this alkahestry's nature, I'm going to be keeping an eye on this to make sure you don't do anything out of line for consistency's sake.
