» Upgrading: Earth-Defying Array:

An advanced and powerful Kata - special training exercise - that was created by Mirja, built off the skeleton of works left by a talented but unknown martial artist, Ashigoi Kazuri. The lack of anything more than theory and concepts lead him to be shunned in favour of more solid styles, but this, as Mirja found out, was not the smartest of decisions by the Martial Art World. He left behind the theory to be built upon, not as anything in any way of solidity. And so Mirja took it and created her own Kata for herself, and whoever she felt like teaching it too. The eponymously named technique focuses releasing your earthly tethers, and actualizing your willpower in a physical aspect. The rest are focused on the concept of Tulpa, creations powered by one's sheer tenacity and willpower, literally forcing a thought into the physical world. However, there are limits, the user is only ever able to create two things, a Personal Tulpa, which generally attaches to their body, and a Full Tulpa, which is a creation of it's own but still bound to the creator and unable to stray far, sometimes not able to stray at all, but able to act independently.

As constructs, both the Personal and Full Tulpa's general skills are equal to one rank below Willpower skill. The Creator can focus on one aspect to the detriment of the others, allowing it to be the same rank as Willpower as the expense of the rest being one rank lower. Their tier is also based off of Willpower, being 3 tiers below for adept willpower, 2 for advanced, 1 for master, and equal for Grandmaster.



Earth-Defying Array: The base of the entire style, this Array focuses on the mind more than the body. Lightening the strain of existance, and bringing a state of extended peace to the user. Once this level headed nature has been achieved, the user can focus on the manifestation of their mentality, bringing the mind into play in the physical world. The first manifestation, and the denial of Earth, allows the body to feel light and unrestrainted, as the manifested mentality takes a part of the physical side of life. This can either allow the user to enjoy strenuous activity with less taxation on their endurance. [All energy-draining techniques have an increased post limit of 1 for Adept Willpower, 2 for Advanced Willpower, 3 for Elite Willpower, 5 for Master, and 7 for Grandmaster Willpower. Beginner Willpower is to weak to have any noticeable change. Tulpa have a limit of the same number of posts. Beginner Willpower can not manifest enough tenacity and discipline to construct a Tulpa]

Personal Tulpa; Six guns of Black Heaven: Mirja's Personal Tulpa, it is the manifestation of her belief in raw power, Versatility, and most importantly, the peace of speed. The first pair of Guns extend from the back of her shoulders as a pair of thick, muscular arms pitch black in colour , were as the other two are constructed as they are required, spawning from below her biological arms, and the final pair jutting out unexpectedly from her chest. She focuses on their General Speed, allowing them to have incredible swiftness and dexterity, granting their name as every strike breaks the sound barrier and creates a cracking sound, much like a gun. They have three times as much length stored inside them, allowing for extension to catch the target off guard and deliver a heavy hit while Mirja closes the gap.

Full Tulpa; Promise of Victory; The Arms of Lady Caliburn!: Mirja's Full Tulpa, expanding on the Six guns of Black Heaven, creates a massive woman floating behind her, displaying a hundred arms in a half circle. Half the arms are ethereal, and the other half are physical and able to cause incredible harm. Lady Caliburn herself is an incredible construct to behold, split perfectly down the middle, so one part of her is a gleaming golden colour, and the other half is a pitch black. The black side of her face holds a warm and open smile, while the gleaming gold colour is covered by a mask similar to Mirja's Vizard Mask.

The Golden fists will seek to prioritize Mirja's projection, blocking and intercepting any attack directed at her, while the black side will focus on striking at the enemy with powerful palm strikes and chops. At will, Mirja can command the two sides to switch in their duties, or to abandon one in favor of the other, becoming full defend, or full offense as she commands, allowing her to throw the opponent off guard and deny them their expectations.

As a physical construct, Lady Caliburn has her own Durability, and any part of her can be destroyed by a powerful enough attack. If her head is destroyed, and the physical arms or sixty percent of her body is damaged, Lady Caliburn will dissolve and the mental feedback will prevent Mirja from recreating her for the current thread. Knocking Mirja out can also cause Lady Caliburn to disappear. A strange mental limitation is that, if Mirja is unable to move then she can not create Lady Caliburn, as the Tulpa is made from the exhilaration of intense speed, and being unable to do this prevents her from being able to focus and summon the power required to construct a Tulpa. Mirja does not focus on any one part, like she does with her Six guns of Black Heaven, allowing Lady Caliburn to enjoy a well-rounded skill set.
