» Upgrading: New Abilities

• » Hagel Pfeil: Arrows forged around a core of cool wind and moisture. Due to an ice arrowhead, these missiles do not benefit from the effects of Himmel Pfeil, but instead deal an extra 10% damage for every rank of Sylvia's Reishi Manipulation.
  
  
• » Himmelsblick: Through a combination of extrasensory ability and enhancing her own eyesight through a method similar to Blut, Sylvia temporarily attains near perfect vision. Her eyesight becomes 20/20, she can see clearly in conditions with low or no light at all, and she becomes able to see through mass belonging to the Earthly realm. However, solid reishi and reiryoku constructs still impede her vision, as normal. (This is an edit of an existing ability, to bring it and Blut Sehen together as two forms of the singular effect.)
  
  
• » Blut Sehen: An advanced form of Blut, and the perfected form of Sylvia's Himmelsblick. Through enhancement of her extrasensory abilities via Blut, Sylvia becomes able to see through matter both physical and spiritual in nature, and extends the range of her vision and arrows up to one mile per rank of Blut. Objects which inhibit or block the passage of spiritual energy, such as Soul-Synthesized Silver or Sekkiseki, impact this ability in kind. For the purposes of powers which act upon dedicated sensory abilities, Blut is regarded as such for the duration of this form. This form consumes energy as a basic level of Blut, with a x2 multiplier.

The following abilities adhere to an extra set of rules:

• Abilities labeled as a [Storm] cannot be used at the same time, and require focus to continue their effects after being cast.
  
  
• » Freyrs Finsternis [Storm]: Through ritual comprised of a brief incantation and the gathering of reishi, Sylvia creates a dense fog that extends for one mile in each direction and two hundred feet skyward, that obscures the vision and reiatsu sense of all within. A dedicated sensory skill, such as Pesquisa, can see thorugh this fog with mild difficulty with an equal rank to Sylvia's Reishi Manipulation; or, a Mental Deduction of at least one rank higher can do the same with diminished clarity. A widely applied force equal to Sylvia's skill in Reishi Manipulation will disperse the fog. When cast during the activation of Letzt Stil: Wetterhexe, the outward range of this fog increases by one-half mile at Adept Letzt Stil, one mile at Advanced, and one mile more per rank above Advanced -and the skyward range to two hundred feet per rank of Letzt Stil. By sensing the disturbance of reishi, a Quincy may detect and track any movement within the fog.
  
  ‶Oh Freyr, Lord of Rain ~ Hide us, thine dutiful servants ~“
  
  
• » Jägers Schneesturm [Storm]: Through ritual comprised of a brief incantation and the molding of reishi in the sky above, Sylvia calls down a storm of arrowhead-shaped hail that damages everything within a two thousand foot radius. This storm deals continuous damage for as long as Sylvia remains focused on it, at a rate of 10% her base arrow damage per rank of Reishi Manipulation. When cast during the activation of Letzt Stil: Wetterhexe, the range of this storm increases by one half-mile at Adept Letzt Stil, one mile at Advanced, and one mile more per rank above Advanced. Despite being cast in either form, a small circle the diameter of Sylvia's reach exists around her, where the hail does not fall.
  
  ‶Oh Skadi, Lady of Winter ~ Hunt our foes, and strike with thine merciless cold“

» Why: Sylvia continues to grow as a Quincy, and has reached the limits of her body's capabilities. Blut Sehen represents the perfection of her Himmelsblick, a power she created as a child, and her Storm-class abilities represent using skill to overcome her limitations and keep up with the Echt Quincy of the Vandenreich.

» Extra: Sylvia has gained Advanced Speed and Blut skills from the January burst. I'm just waiting to make the edits all at once.
