Some Kido

• Name: Truth Font Needle
  
• Type: Hadō
  
• Number: 93
  
• Effects:
  
  A Hadō with it's roots in torture, this powerful spell creates a single needle that can either be inserted into the user's body by touch or, as a modern modification to make it easier for battlefield use, shot at the enemy at a speed dependant on the user's Kido skill. The needle, once it enters the person's body, causes excruciating pain in the being's spiritual energy, bypassing physical pain immunity this way (though not general pain resistance). With their thin head and the power behind the casting,they can usually penetrate smoothly into a person whose durability is around the same level as the user's kido skill
  
  The needles are thin, slick, and hard to extract, and while the much more involved process of torture can create needles capable of sticking around for hours, this takes some fifteen minutes of crafting per needle. Battlefield Needles stay in the target's body for three posts before dissolving. Additional needles compound in the level of pain, and if the incantation is used to create them, double the pain with each additional needle. They are not impossible to remove, merely difficult, and can be cut out with spiritual power if the user has such.
  
  This Kido is an intricate art, however, and the spiritual control and focus required makes it such that the user can only create one needle per use of this Hadō.
  
  
• Incantation:
  
  Scream and cry, resist the crawl, maggots chew all the same. Burrowing deep into the flesh, they reach the moist and darkened places, to breed and grow and squirm about.
