The Spirit of The Sword

Name: The Spirit of The Sword
Requirements: Customized Weapon/3 point training per stage
Description: Many warriors have been gifted with a special talent. Their chakra is different than many others. Through time and training, they have learned to manifest their chakra into the form of a blade with unimaginable power and abilities. The blade grows with the user and has three main stages.

Stage One:
The user focuses, taking their chakra and bringing it to life. The chakra takes the form of a sword. As the user grows, so does the sword, always being at an equal rank to the user. This sword must be created in the custom equipment section. At this stage, the sword has no ability but will never break.
Note: Pictures for stage two and three must be included in the weapon's app

Stage Two:
The user hears a voice coming from the blade, talking to them in their mind, leaving only the wielder able to hear the voice. The user learns the name of their blade, gaining the ability to transform it into another weapon of sorts. This weapon grants them new a new ability. The user must make a KG for this stage of the blade. The KG does not take a slot, as it is a part of this ability.

Stage Three:
The wielder becomes closer to the blade, learning of its true powers. This stage grants the wielder two abilities. The first is their sword gains a third form as well as another KG that does not take up a slot. The second is that the spirit of the blade is able to manifest itself as an NPC that the user can control. The NPC may only have one KG, 10 Jutsu, and their style points count as if they were in a bloodline, though they may not actually have one.

Senbonzakura - 2-D

Name: Senbonzakura
Requirements: Spirit of The Sword Stage Two/Riku Tensei
Description: Senbonzakura translates to "Thousand Cherry Blossoms" and this form mimics that well. Riku will utter the word "scatter" and the blade of the sword will shatter into one thousand tiny fragments. Swinging the hilt of the sword, Riku can control the way these blade fragments fly through the air. The blades reflect light in the perfect manner to make them glow pink like cherry blossom petals. The blades move at relatively high speeds and are difficult to block or dodge, though not impossible.

Name: Senbonzakura Kageyoshi
Requirements: Spirit of The Sword Stage Three/Riku Tensei
Description: Senbonzakura Kageyoshi translates to "Vibrant Display of a Thousand Cherry Blossoms" Riku once again mutters "scatter" and drops the sword straight down into the ground, blade first. It sinks into the ground and energy ripples out like a pool of water. Then, two rows of massive sword blades appear behind Riku and fragment into pieces much like Senbonzakura, though the number of blade fragments significantly increases. Riku can either control the movement of these blades with his mind or his hand, which increases the speed threefold. These blades can be used for attack or defense, as there is such a vast number of them. While this is the main form of this stage, there are also a few extra abilities that go with this stage.

Name: Senkei
Requirements: Spirit of The Sword Stage Three
Description: Senkei is a form that abandons defense for an increased attack. The blade fragments form into thousands of swords that create rows and enclose the area in a sort of dome of swords, keeping both Riku and his opponent from fleeing. These swords can be controlled directly with Riku's mind, or he can call them to his hands for increased attack. When in Riku's hand, they take the appearance of the sword's Stage one form, but cut much better and swing a bit faster. The swords can easily dissipate back into their fragmented state at any moment.

Name: Gokei
Requirements: Spirit of The Sword Stage Three
Description: Gokei is a fearsome form. The fragmented blades form a sphere around the target, swirling around and then eventually closing in, ripping to shreds anything inside the sphere.

Name: Shukei: Hakuteiken
Requirements: Spirit of The Sword Stage Three
Description: All of the fragmented blades form together into one sword. This sword is pure white with a pink glow to it. It's about 5 feet long. This sword has a highly increased cutting power and swing speed. As Riku uses this ability, there is a slight white aura around him, white wings made entirely of energy sprout from his back, and even a white halo appears over his head. The wings can be used for flight if needed. Riku can fly the same speed as he can swim with Sakana, which would be 25 mph
