Letzt Stil Overhaul

Lukas Ätherisch [SC 4]

» Letzt Stil Name: Wiedergänger

» Letzt Stil Appearance: Lukas' arm-length sanrei glove snaps at his shoulder, it's seal erupting in bright blue light. The reishi's glow, for a moment, comes from within his arm, peeking through the seams of the garment. In an explosion of energy, the sanrei glove is reduced to ash, his right arm becoming enveloped in a massive amount of reishi from his shoulder down.

Larger than himself by an order of magnitude, the reishi appears enormous, before forming downwards and around his arm somewhat more tightly as it forms into a massive clawed hand, the energy fierce as it explodes violently around his shoulder. At such density, the usual pale, ghostly blue of his reishi becomes a deep crystal blue, its core a searing bright white.

With his Letzt Stil active, Lukas' hair stands on end, the concentrated reishi sparking electricity and bright culminations of light that peel and emanate from his body. Whatever clothing on his chest doesn't tend to withstand the transformation either, burning away under the pressure.

Letzt Stil Abilities:

» Geisterklinge - Umarmung: Geisterklinge is assimilated within the form of Wiedergänger, granting it an impressive destructive output. The increased power output from condensing such a large quantity of reishi enables his Letzt Stil to be easily twice as powerful as his peers, but only be activated once within any thread. Generally, his movements rely on Wiedergänger's claw, using it with large leaping and slashing movements.

» Pfeilregen - Tod: Requiring a second level of permissions granted by a high enough ranking officer in the Vandereich, this is the true power of Spukender Pfeilregen. Upon the second level seal being released, Wiedergänger loses it's form, before shifting into a cannon barrel - in similar Lukas-dwarfing size to the claw. This cannon is then aimed and fired, ending Wiedergänger in its entirety as the payload is unleashed.

Still concentrated to a similar scope as before, the blast is roughly a mile in any direction in front of it. A wall of destruction, the numerous arrows become as one. The aftermath is barren, scouring existence from reality. In a combination of recoil and exhaustion, Lukas' abilities as a quincy all but disappear for a month, and preventing the use of his Letzt still for the next six months. For up to a year later, his spirit weapon will feel off at best, and pathetic at worst.

» Letzt Stil Appearance: Lukas' Laden Hant releases the cross binding it at his shoulder, a second level of release prompting the removal of the cross on his elbow. Each appears to intake large amounts of reishi, glowering with emerald blue flame as his arm is covered. Forming into a large clawed arm, the size of which magnifies greatly to double its size with the second level of release. Ahnengeist's size is greatly exaggerated, it's form becoming whole if somewhat agitated and rough. Similar in growth with the second level of release, the sword becomes larger than himself, a massive wreathing mess of reishi. While active in any capacity, a plume of reishi gathers on his left shoulder, following the size of his arm in this state.

Letzt Stil Abilities:

» Linkshändig: Lukas' leiden hant is strictly limited to being utilized when granted authority by a superior Vandenreich officer. As part of these measures, his seal is split into two levels. A level one authorization functions at a marginally lower output of 750%, while a level two authorization functions at a marginally higher output of 1100%, in comparison to his peers. In addition, certain abilities in this state become unlocked, or otherwise augmented. A second level release causes some unpleasant side effects as it ends - a range of maladies like muscle fatigue, fevers, and rapid dehydration - although he has become more durable to them over time. If a second level release is utilized within too short of a period of time, these effects become far more persistent, and may pass from temporary to permanent.

» Ahnengeist - Umarung: The offensive abilities of Ahnengeist are greatly magnified, taking away much of the utility and shifting of the base form. Applying the ability to absorb reishi to its maximum, the movements of the blade unleash currents of reishi for steigen, also being capable of a form of Sklaverei, becoming far more advanced with the addition of his second level release - allowing him to dominate an additional spirit class higher. His speed with steigen and raw offensive output are also notably increased, in spite of the sheer dwarfing size of it.

» Besiegen Regen: A technique requiring the secondary level of release, Lukas places the augmented Ahnengeist in front of himself, grabbing it with both hands before thrusting it skywards. As he does, the blade diffuses in shape, forming into several dozen, if not hundreds, of smaller swords. In a bright diffusion of light, the blades are launched skywards, forming into enormous arrows as they turn and slam towards specific targets. The aiming for this is particularly tricky, requiring at least one post of uninterrupted focus before utilizing. The amount of reishi used in this attack temporarily lowers Lukas' spirit class by a rank after use, lasting for at least the remainder of a thread.

» Supporting Material: Needed to rework Letzt Stil following racial spec changes and spirit weapon upgrades, decided to put it off until he might use it, considering it is generally plot-locked.
