Elemental Manipulation is a sophisticated technique of combat used by several fighters, which is based on the use of energy to create as well as manipulate elements and use them to the advantage of the fighter.
History[]
For thousands of years, yokai, humans, and other species have been using a sophisticated technique of manipulating energy, which allows them to use their power to control the elements of nature, instead of making thousands of techniques derived from these elements.
Concept[]
The main concept of the technique is to use its own power to connect to a specific element. Besides creating, the user can also produce it from their energy. However, in this case, each element type needs to meet specific forms to be created and manipulated. The user can use the composite element, and use it to their advantage, like redirecting to hit a target, as well as handling it to perform powerful techniques such as defense, attack, refinement, endurance, and so on. Despite having almost the same concept for all handlers, it was shown that an element can be controlled somehow unconventionally, and that not all handlers elements can produce it from its own energy.
Types[]
- Fire Manipulation: Fire is an element conducive to direct attack, and can be launched over long distances and used to burn large areas and generate explosions.
- Water Manipulation: Water is an element that does not have much effect on direct attack. However, it is excellent when used for defense, capture, and disrupting the opponent. It can also be used to create a territory in battle and drown enemies.
- Earth Manipulation: The earth element is balanced, being excellent for defense and can be used to create protection and increase the effect of physical attacks. It can also use the terrain against the enemy.
- Wind Manipulation: The wind element is very well balanced. It can be used both to attack and to defend, generating high winds and tornadoes. It can also be used to boost the user, and even fly, thus giving great advantage as well as increasing physical damage.
- Ice Manipulation: The ice element is not very effective in direct attacks. However, it is excellent to immobilize the enemy and can also be used to create weapons and territories.
- Lighting Manipulation: The lightning element is great for quick attacks and detention.
- Black Flame Manipulation: It is considered the strongest elements of manipulation. This is actually a demonic version of the common fire. A more powerful version is able to consume the target and burn it completely.
