seishiro kidou

#1 Shō [衝, Thrust]| A small burst of energy--appearing to look like wind, but not quite such--races towards the target and hits them with about the same strength of their own punches. They can be shot from the tips of one's fingers, and being so basic, it is easy to fire off many in a single instant.

#4 Byakurai [白雷, Pale Lightning]| A bolt of blue-white lightning pierces into the distance, impaling targets caught within its path. The technique can be used en masse through ease, though it is significantly harder than Sho to do such.

#32 Ōkasen [黄火閃, Yellow Fire Flash]| With their zanpakutou held horizontally in front of them, the user generates a yellow orb of reiryoku that when shot fires off in a wide arcing motion. It can be done without the zanpakutou, though lesser skilled practitioners will find that their arc isn't as wide as it could be.

#33 Sōkatsui [蒼火墜, Blue Fire, Crash Down]| A blue reriyoku blast erupts from the user's palm forwards, sending out a stream of volatile reiryoku. High ranking users find that their blast engulfs a much larger area than lesser practitioners. Incantation: " Ye lord! Mask of flesh and bone, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Truth and temperance, upon this sinless wall of dreams unleash but slightly the wrath of your claws. "

#58 Tenran [闐嵐, Orchid Sky]| Using their zanpakutou as a conduit, the user charges a massive torrent of swirling wind that sends a gale towards incoming opponents--blowing them away if they get caught up in it. Masters can create tremendous twisters with this technique--powerful enough to shred apart incompetent opponents.

#63 Raikōhō [雷吼炮, Thunder Roar Sear]| Lightning reiryoku is shot out at a target, engulfing a large area in the blast. The resulting explosion covers a wide area, and is briefly engulfed in smoke and debris. Incantation: " Sprinkled on the bones of the beast! Sharp tower, red crystal, steel ring. Move and become the wind, stop and become the calm. The sound of warring spears fills the empty castle! "


#73 Sōren Sōkatsui [双漣蒼火墜, Twin Lotus Blue Fire, Crash Down]| An even more potent version of Sokatsui, two separate orbs of pale blue reiryoku begin coalescing in the user's hands, which are then sent rocketing towards an opponent with enough power to demolish large stone constructs. Incantation: " Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! On the wall of blue flame, inscribe a twin lotus. In the abyss of conflagration, wait at the far heavens. "

#88 Hiryū Gekizoku Shinten Raihō [飛竜撃賊震天雷炮, Flying Dragon-Striking Heaven-Shaking Thunder Cannon]| Almost suddenly, the user's outstretched palm unleashes a massive surge of electrical energies as a hellish screeching static noise fills the ears of everyone nearby. A very destructive explosion enshrouds the target and their viscinity, immolating those within.

#90 Kurohitsugi [黒棺, Black Coffin]| A rectangular prism of black reiryoku fringed with the color of the user's reiatsu entraps the target within before several large shafts of the same reiatsu appear surrounding the box before penetrating it deeply, eviscerating the victim within. At its full potential, the sky around darkens and is filled with an ominous humming sound, and the technique appears much larger and tangible, and it is pierced by crosses. It is rumored to bend space and time. Incantation: " Seeping crest of turbidity. Arrogant vessel of lunacy! Boil forth and deny! Grow numb and flicker! Disrupt sleep! Crawling queen of iron! Eternally self-destructing doll of mud! Unite! Repulse! Fill with soil and know your own powerlessness! "

#91 Senjū Kōten Taihō [千手皎天汰炮, Thousand-Hand Bright Heaven Culling-Sear]| Scattered about them randomly, ten pink points of energy begin culminating large amounts of reiryoku. When fired they close in on a single target and explode, though a master may be able to send each shot off at a different target. Incantation: " Limit of the thousands hands, respectful hands, unable to touch the darkness. Shooting hands unable to reflect the blue sky. The road that basks in light, the wind that ignited the embers, time that gathers when both are together, there is no need to be hesitant, obey my orders. Light bullets, eight bodies, nine items, book of heaven, diseased treasure, great wheel, grey fortress tower. Aim far away, scatter brightly and cleanly when fired. "




BAKUDOU | Way of Binding

#4 Hainawa [這縄, Crawling Rope]| A fast-paced but low-ranking binding technique that ejects a rope of jaundis yellow reiatsu at the target, quickly ensaring them and preventing ease of movement. The technique itself can act as a conduit for many of the light-based Bakudou.

#9 Geki [撃, Strike]| The user produces a red light from a kanji symbol that appears from their palm, which paralyzes foes caught in the light temporarily. The range of the technique is very short, though its effects are potent for such a low ranking spell.

#26 Kyokkō [曲光, Bent Light]| The user's form and reiatsu are disguised by bending light around the user. The bent light is harder to detect the more proficient the user is at Kidou.

#30 Shitotsu Sansen [嘴突三閃, Beak-Percing Triple Beam]| Crackling yellow reiatsu forms in the caster's palm, which is used to draw a triangle in the air that forms a triangle armed with three 'beaks' of reiatsu that shoot out at the target, pinning them via the arms and midsection against a surface such as a wall.

#39 Enkōsen [円閘扇, Round Lock Fan]| Holding their palm against the spine of their zanpakutou, the user forms a whirling torrent of energy that serves to block against incoming attacks.

#61 Rikujōkōrō [六杖光牢, Six Rods Prison of Light]| The user generates a small spark of the same jaundis-yellow reiryoku as Hainawa, which spawns six wide but thin shafts of light to pin the target via their torso, though they take a moment to collapse in on the target. They cannot move their body at all once the technique lands. This technique can use Hainawa as a conduit to form the Bakudou right on top of them. Incantation: "Carriage of thunder, bridge of a spinning wheel. With light, divide this into six!"

#63 Sajō Sabaku [鎖条鎖縛, Locking Bondage Stripes]| A mass of writhing chains slide around the opponent before collapsing in on them, constricting their arms. It is a very powerful binding technique and those who are caught by it mid-air tend to fall down, due to the incredible weight of the chains.

#79 Kuyō Shibari [九曜縛, Nine Sunlight Traps]| Eight black holes form a circle around an opponent, with a ninth materializing over the victim's chest. They emit high amounts of reiatsu and are meant to immobilize the target.

#81 Dankū [斷空, Splitting Void]| A translucent barrier of great power suddenly erupts in front of the user to block any incoming attack. It takes the shape of a rectangle standing tall above the user, blocking everything coming from that direction.

#99 Kin (Part 1) [禁, Seal]| Requiring practitioners to make intricate handsigns and gesture their arms appropriately (Perfected Kidou entails the ability to use it less ritually, merely casting it with a single hand gesture) they begin to wrap a very resilient spiritual fabric around the target's arms, binding them to their back before pinning them down with spiritual weights. It is one of the strongest Bakudou ever made, and is merely the first part of the entirety of the spell.

#99 Bankin (Part 2) [卍禁, Great Seal]| Pale spiritual fabric engulfs the target, wrapping them up similarly to egyptian mummies. Secondly, dozens of miniscule arrows puncture the fabric and bury deeper into the victim's body. Lastly, a giant pillar appears above the target, which may inadvertantly kill them once it drops on them. Incantation: " First Song - Halting Wrap! Second Song - Hundred Serial Bolts! Final Song - Full Ban Great Mount! "

Modified Kyokko| The need to hide in his surroundings arose many times in the deserts of Hueco Mundo, and some creatures were all too clever in locating him if he was hiding in Kyokko. So he developed a better version--one that truly removes someone from that plane of existence, but still allows them to see and move around normally. They are incapable of influencing what happens around them because of this, so they cannot even harm an opponent during this time. Because of this the technique is largely used for reconaissance only, but helped to also keep Seishiro safe in Hueco Mundo.


Kyūjūrokkei Kakafūmetsu [九十六京火架封滅, Ninety-Six Capitol Fire-Suspended Seal Destruction]| A lucrative use of kidou, this is an ultimate sealing technique in terms of raw power. By placing it on an opponent subtley (it can be embedded in other kidou too,) they condemn that person to essentially be " crucified ". It is alleged this technique was forbidden for being used on the infamous Quincy Jesus Christ, who fell at the use of this technique by a masterful foe. Seishiro came across it through Tokomaru-sama, who was as fanatical as Seishiro for the Demon Arts.

Mijon Esukudo [ミジョン・エスクド, Million Shield]| A very powerful technique, a small, strobing green hexagonal construct floats wherever the user desires, ideally protecting their flank from unseen attacks. When an incoming attack is sensed, it enlarges to block the technique. Despite how persistent the attack is, the kidou will resist it until it is halted, being the ultimate blocking technique. It theoretically keeps draining the user of reiryoku until the assault is completely countered. It can only be overpowered by literally waiting their reiryoku reserves, making it a futile effort towards most.

Eru Esukudo [エル・エスクド, ]| With so much as the slightest gesture, a green oval shield rises to block any incoming attack. It can easily block at least a single zanpakutou strike. It is also possible for a skilled expert of kidou to spawn these around their allies in order to save them from incoming strikes. It is the predecessor to Mijon Esukudo, being very resilient in the hands of a master.

KINJI KIDOU | Forbidden Demon Arts

Hakkyō Shita Bōkun no Uragiri [発狂した暴君の裏切り, Demented Tyrant's Betrayal]| A Kidou developed by the ancient Shinigami of old, it was outlawed around the time of its creation due to its inherent capabilities. Although it isn't quite a mind control technique, it is a very capable subjugating technique. By using the technique, one exerts their own will power over an opponent's body. It renders them incapable of movement or action just the same as the user. While reciting the incantation, runes will start to appear around the target in a fine mesh pattern, confining them within the space before collapsing in on them. They are then branded onto the opponent and the Kidou's power can then be invoked, which streams a flow of reiatsu from the caster's body and exerts 'their will' on the opponent. Breaking out of this technique is nigh impossible, but the person using it cannot make actions either, else the spell would break--their will diverted from suppressing the target to making their action, giving an opponent the opportunity needed to break the spell. It is considered the ultimate Bakudou in many ways.

Incantation: A mind wracked with fear, a court bereft of compassion. The seething will of your subjects cannot compare to your iron nerve! Command their loyalty--demand their servitude! Remind those at your beck and call that their will is not their own!
