The "HAO" event is coming to a close. with it's end the next aspect will begin. For those of you who do not understand or know of shaman king i will speak on it briefly.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
Shaman's are a medium between the worlds of the living and the worlds of the dead,They can see ghost and speak to ghost. Shaman generally train so they may partake in the Shaman tournament. A grueling battle to decide who will be the "Shaman king" The one called shaman king has the chance to contact the "Great Spirit" and reshape the world in there image
FURYOKU OR CHAKRA?
A shaman's power is determined by the amount of furyoku they have, the higher a shaman's furyoku the great connection can be between the shaman and his/her guardian spirit. We the people of vescrutia,convert our chakra into furyoku and this allows us to control our guardian spirits. Also your spirits can not survive on there own. they will constantly drain you of chakra so long as they are out They themselves have no chakra or furyoku,so they have to get it from you. there is no exception to this rule
GUARDIAN SPIRITS
Sacred Souls: The classification for spirits who have existed for 500 years or more and whose souls have shed their physical attachment to achieve their purest form. Sacred--or 'higher'--spirits are more appropriately ghosts who have ascended beyond their ego, enabling them to assume any form or shape freely. After this "ascending", the spirit does not have to become stronger since this is the highest form of power. Only the shaman has to train and grow stronger. (((these are the spirits most of you will obtain))))
Kami souls: The classification of the most powerful ghosts in shaman king. Nine are known to exist at this time. the spirit of fire, The great spirit, Lady Sati's ghost, the big chief, spirit of thunder, spirit of rain, spirit of earth, spirit of wind, and shamash. These ghosts have near bottomless power and can grow stronger by eating other ghosts. The problem is that these ghosts require a lot of furyoku to keep themselves going. The shaman who controls one of these must be incredibly strong and be extremely cautious around them since they will eat any ghost that comes their way. (((These will only be furnished to the highest of shinobi.)))
POWERS OF A GUARDIAN SPIRITS
Hitodami form:This is the form most spirit take before preforming any kind of Shaman based power. When in this form the spirit takes the form of a small ball and only their faces and a few small details are present. Sometimes the Spirit take this form even when their not about to use over soul, most likely this is for them to take less space.
Spirit Unity: The earliest form of over soul show in the manga. Instead of using a medium to manifest the spirit into the real world it uses the shaman's body and allows them to take over the body for as long as necessary. Because it is a form of possession and it doesn't manifest the spirits in the real world this form of over soul barely uses Chakra
Spirit Control: The Spirit control is the result of a Shaman placing his guardian ghost into an object(Medium) to create a powerful weapon, or to manifest the ghost into the real world. Do to the fact that this stage of power burns chakra at such a drastic rate. it may only be obtained by special jounin and higher.
Over soul: This is power may only be obtain by forging a powerful bond with your spirit. The spirit takes to it's true form (generally very large) in this form the Shaman will burn Chakra at a VERY dangerous rate. so it should only be used by jounin and up.
EXTRA STUFF I FORGOT TO MENTION.
Each shinobi may obtain as many spirits as they chakra pool will allow them,they may also give there spirits unique powers. Shinobi do not have to use spirits from the show but Unique spirits most be approved. I would like to state some of the terminology has been changed to either fit our universe or to better fit the understanding of the new guys.
Genin and chuunin one spirit
special jounin and jounin two spirits
anbu three spirits
sannin four spirits
kage no limit
(((Note no one is allowed to obtain spirits as of yet,but i assure you it is on the way.)))
