Sugiura Sub-race Info

Overview: For all intents and purposes, this is a list that will provide the basic info for all of the sub-races of the Sugiura. It shall explain what people need to know about certain sub-races, so that no point is left untouched. With that being said, let's begin!

Normal Sugiura
The run of the mill Sugiura. Nothing truly special about them in general, though there are some with traits that resemble animals.



Knight Sugiura
These Sugiura are the closest to the standard Sugiura. Their main trait is the ability to materialize armor from their own spiritual energy. The power of the armor is ultimately dependent on the level of the knight. If the Knight is a stalwart warrior with a strong foundation of spiritual energy, his armor will be hard to slice or skewer with most weapons. Even people who pride themselves on hand to hand combat will find themselves at a extreme disadvantage against a master knight who has honed his armor to extremely durable levels. Their next trait is known simply as Magic Resistance. This allows them to block things such as Kidō, Sugiura magic, Demon Magic, Chaos Blasts, Quincy Arrows, Ceros, Balas, et cetera. A basic Knight class Sugiura can block up to 20-30 in Kidō spells, lower demon magic, and low-level cero's. For the highest of Knight-class Sugiura, they are capable of blocking up to 60-70 Kidō spells, 99% of Basic Cero, and Mid-level demon magic, and chaos blasts. In some cases, even high level magic can be blocked but that depends solely on how powerful the knight in question is. The third trait of Knight Sugiura is their excellence in combat. While not generally skilled in modern weapons such as rifles, cannons, and even hand-to-hand, the Knight Sugiuras are rather skilled when it comes to swords, spears, lances, axes, hammers, flails, bows, daggers, and any other weapons associated with the age of clashing steel. The final trait is a skill known as Riding. Despite the innuendo, Knights are exceptionally skilled when it comes to commanding a form of transportation. This could be a horse, a house-boat, or even a house fly. If someone can use it as transportation, a Knight could control the method.



Magus Sugiura
A Magus Sugiura is a Sugiura that decided not to obtain a Guardian Beast. They decided to gain power they would tap into their Origin, the beginning of one's being. It is nigh-impossible to tap into one's true Origin, but getting close to it is not hard. An Origin is Lightning, Severing/Binding, Water/Wind, Consumption, and otherworldly magic that cannot be calculated. Tapping into their Origin allows them to learn their magic, master it, and become an extreme threat against any opponent. With a high-level Magus, they are even capable of defeating high-level Shinigami, Sugiura, Arrancar, or anything one can think of. Magus are divided into a Noble Colors system that allows them to be graded based on their abilities. The lowest is Yellow. A Magus determined to be Yellow in color is one who has recently tapped their origin with no real power. After Yellow is Orange. Orange is what most Magus Sugiura are. They are learning what their Origin can do and don't post much of a threat. Next is Green. Most Green Magi are directors, as they are decently strong and knowledgable. This color means that they are halfway into mastering their Origin. The next is Red. Reds are rather strong and pose a minor threat. Next is Blue. Blue is the highest class one can attain normally. They are rare and are sometimes called Masters. They are close to mastering their Origin. The highest is known as Rainbow. They are the masters of their Origin. Rainbow-colored Magi are highly respected among the Magus Sugiura.



Tsurugi Sugiura
Tsurugi are a distinct class of Sugiura, where two Sugiura work as a single collective force. There are Sugiuras who exist known as Blacksmiths. These blacksmiths are capable of forging otherworldly armors and swords, capable of allowing them to fight against the strongest warriors the world has to offer. Once the Blacksmith has completed the armor, they infuse their spirit inside the masterpiece as it's OS. It is for this reason that most Musha(Tsurug-users) do not require a guardian beast. This most due to the fact that once the Musha and Tsurugi become one being, they are capable of rivaling their Sugiura brethren, if not defeating them along with other warriors of various races. Even if a Sugiura is a novice, if their blacksmith was an accomplished warrior, they can guide them through battles using their knowledge and skill. Low-level Tsurugi are usually capable of rivaling vice-captains and seated officers depending on the pilot's skill. These are known as kazuuchi or "Many-Forged" Tsurugi. The ancient Tsurugi are known as Shinuchi - True Forged Tsurugi. They are far more powerful and can rival any warrior with their Shinogi which is an ability that does not adhere to the laws of physics. They have a form of combat that is exclusive to them known only as TAC(Tsurugi Aerial combat) and most are generally well adept and masterful at many forms of Japanese and western swordsmanship.




Beast Sugiura
Beast Sugiura are the rarest of all of the sub-classes of Sugiura. This is because of how they are created. A Beast Sugiura are those that have become one with their Guardian Beast(s). This can be through simply devouring their Guardian Beast or by fusing with them. No matter what, Beast Sugiura will always be mentally unstable. As their thoughts became one, there will be conflicts and thus the balance is gone. However, one can become more with one Guardian Beast by what is known as Mad Enhancement. This is by sacrificing more of the original Sugiura's mind for more of the Guardian Beast's skills. Beast Sugiura will have higher strength than the other Sugiura, since their body is now two merged. However, their mind's instability causes their magic skill to sharply decline. No matter what their skill was before, a Beast Sugiura is the weakest when it comes to magic.
