Their energy bodies, planar bodies, physical body etc...*The abilities and mechanics are described in storyline abilities.*



History- The story began with an ignorant youth destined for greatness yet blinded by fate's plan. From nothingness to creation he blossomed from the fruition of one of the Greater Consciousnesses, the Mana Tree.

Through the years of a troubled soul he grew inside societies of injustified segregation .Knowing nothing but prejudice and cold shoulders. A child without family or home, forced onto the streets only to clash blades with felons in a kill or be killed world.. Everything about this reality was anything but a cake walk. Death, destruction and endangerment, yep just another night and another problem.

Cruelty and discrimination slowly became his everything with no end in sight. But his time would come. Consciousness would evolve and so the legend would unravel. As they say even midnight must pass for dawn's always around the corner. That forewarned dawn was sacramental. Embodied as a bright tommorow, a promising future. These were the opened arms of a compassionate empire. A true refuge where life and betterment could prosper. The Legions of Viperia, a makeshift family of honor bound warriors. Joyous days followed among the clan. Hearty meals, filled chalices and ample amounts of gold. He was living the high life, far away from those heathen filled streets. But much like time everything must pass and pass it did.

With the passing came the inconceivable. An inconceivability defined by the greatest sense of corruption. It had a name many men fell prey to, Immorality, one must rampant and unexpected. Barreling down his front door behind a deceptive night sky. Order seemed assured, reguarlity seemed intact yet nothing was right. Obscurity and horror whispered upon his dainty ears. The reaper hovered behind his shoulder. Then it came with a quickness unmatched by any dextrous beast. An ambush left undetected by their intelligence's eye. Swords and arrows reigned from the heavans. Insupposable numbers circled his grave and the blades fell. ..

*Thump*....thump*.....*thu.......*...Silence........Perfect silence....." Where am I, who I am? "......." Where is this place? "....." What is this place?" "......." The questions ensued. Fumbling desperately for some sense of understanding yet never obtaining. All that subsisted was an eternal never ending darkness. So he floated aimlessly. His identity stripped and his life erased. There was nothing else he could do but just float in that trepidizing void. Seconds seemed to turn into days, days seemed to turn into weeks and weeks transformed into millenniums. ".........." "Is this the blistering coldness of death?" A since of understanding started to evolve within him. As the spiritual awakening rebirthed him a light opened up. The void defused and a clear bright blue sky could be seen beyond the horizon. Then a number entered his mind..[7]..."What is this image?" Yet before he could reach a conclusion the answers ringed out to him like sunday church bells. Then one answered turned into hundreds of answers to questions he never asked. The universe started breathing through him. An illuminating azule tint encompassed the alien atmosphere. But as he lost himself to amazement the answers receded which brought him back to the symbolic image...-Seven-..."So Seven is it?"..Then as mysteriously as the insight came it was gone.

Roads began manifesting, beings of all shapes and sizes walked freely about.."Is this heaven?" he would find himself inquiring. Through all the madness he found security in that sacred number seven. Self-assured he departed, venturing onward for many years. Exploring each subdivision. To his bewilderment seven became the number symbolizing the map of what many before knew as limbo.

Eventually as limbo became one with him and he one with limbo a devil intruded on his path of enlightenment. A devil unlike any other with a sadistic mind insuperable to Lucifer himself.. "My name's Kaosu..come with me." Such a strong demand, he couldn't resist. So Joshua followed and for an epoch or two this one known as Kaosu became a mentor. Teaching him many things of great signifigance; wisdom, knowledge, magic, control, discipline..Yet through everyone of these teachings a dark desire became underlined. They became more profound and apprehensive. This mentor, nothing short of a fiend, was a disease to creation. A malignant mind that wanted nothing but annihilation to all that stood.

Over time these apocalyptic raids throughout the multiverse became more than he could bare. Nights became haunted by reoccuring nightmares. Horrific inflictions which he awoke amidst only to find the tormented victims' blood upon his own two hands..."This isn't how I want to live. What have I done? My life's become disasterous for the better cause. Even worse I'm a tool in this wordly extirpation. " This is a great injustice that I'll never redeem.. I can't stomach another moment of this hell I'm reliving."

So that hallow night came to be be as Joshua mustered up his courage. Marching into the halls of Kaosu's keep. Imploring the discerning master to cease all actions of hostility. To his dismay Kaosu denied the proposition. With fists clenched in blood lust Joshua struck back with vindiction. A battle of epic proportions broke out between the two. Throughout the exchanging blows reality started to unweave. Peace was indefinite as they fought tooth to nail. The rush of a tyrant blow knocking upon his head was matched by illimitable blasts of magic. Blood was dripping down his face, his body was weary and his bones were arching. Evading , blocking and countering one annihilation after another. Many moons passed when the battle met its finale. Joshua as breathless and beaten as he was could only smile, finding himself standing outside the gates. Banished with a warning of contempt, " You're never to set foot in this realm again. Begone, insolent apprentice." A sensation of confusion overcame him, finding the lack of bitterness and remorse troubling.. Lifting his head up high he didn't regard this as betrayal to Kaosu yet a staggering inclination to good. This wasn't a consideration of defeat yet an achievement of purity.

Enthralled with self-acceptance he walked away a better man. The possessive nightmares were relinquished by an abundant tranquility. That's when destiny intervened. A being who called herself the Nexus conversed with him into the darkest hours of night, speaking of wonderous things far and wide. The further they bonded the moreover he became consumed with intrigue. Wise and knowledgeable was her beauty. For years after they attested companionship. Dumbfounded by this resplendent uncovering he couldn't believe such a divine creature existed. The strange Nexus with her glorious mind smitten him with a proposal, "Be one with me, fight for me, and I'll show you eternal redemption and peace."..Such words he couldn't almost bear to hear. Succumbed by passion and what eventually became love, the pact was made.

...So the legend begins...

Summoner Josh's Storyline Ability List

1.~~Astral Light~~~

( The Astral Light is the great record-book upon whose pages every thought and act of differentiated consciousness is engraven.)

The immortal spirit which antaceded astral evolution, cosmic life and universal intelligence/ Buddhi (the world of consciousness). Akasa is the sphere of pure being, the ultimate constitution, the essence of wisdom and the positive pole with the Astral Light. While the abstract atom of matter, the plane of regeneration and the great womb which created life, is its negative pole. Ether * A.L's highest vibration, also the grid of physical structure and the state inbetween matter and energy* is the vehicle for Akasa. The Astral Light has dual functions, ether forming its positive and the totality of elements its negative. Prakriti is part of the astral light with which our senses apprehend realities. The astral light is the matrix in which all elements are designed and assembled; the sphere of universal intellect. Capable of separating chemical processes which frees the celebral atom and converts it into thought. (Celebral Atom *one of the seven chakra atoms that operates behind the sun, (mother substance, the matrix of all living forces in reality) of the seven rays. This one being known as the Nous Atom* = *the atom manifesting all matter within our brain.* One can exalt their vibrations till they synchronize with the Astral Light, granting omniscience, control over the matrix of universal form and consciousness. Determined will power begins all magical operations admist the Astral Light. To acquire absolute mastery a self-controlled being must separate themselves from servitude then exercise and maintain their free will. With this alone our thoughts can multiple into infinite differentiated monads which structure a series of basic, sophisticated or interlocking realities. To the greatest extent a parallel multiverse expanding into such mass that it literally shrouds or acts like a mirror to the omniverse.. If containing an adept intelligence before the synchronization, they'd potentially be capable of forging a thousand realities which could clone into two thousand. Those realities by the original design would duplicate and evolve, like a cosmic organism, into an entire cosmology of functioning planes and dimensions. Eventually forming a possible explosion of universes or bigger yet multiverses . The duration of manifestation is calculated by the affection of the converting celebral atom and the degree of the caster's original intelligence. The Astral Light is a consistent winding of "cosmic dust/ fire mist" which pulsates through intense rapidity depending on the affections from the controller. The more your celebral atom converts, the more winding and pulsing the astral light becomes .. By other definitions, the increasing affection of your thoughts triggers another ascension of power.. If and when the controller binds to the Astral Light their spiritual, psychical and physical sensory incorporates with the finer elements of Astral Light. Stabilizing as one, where its replaced with an omni-connected, omnipresent omnifarious sensory network. All beings of existence, their thoughts, perception, realities, past , present and futures are all documented inside the cosmic force. Giving the "United" power to dismantle or assemble any stage throughout the history of creation and the preexistent void. The potential worlds are structured by the imagination of the medium; everlasting, temporary, lawful, unlawful, neutral, endangering or supportive.

2. ~~~~ The Astral Nexus~~~~

The astral Nexus, monad and matrix to the A.P. An immortal spirit which antaceded astral evolution, cosmic life and astral intelligence. Officializing its ability to dismantle or forge interplanar paths. Shutting them down throughout the multiverse or opening them at whim. Capable of authorizing or revoking passage to selected planar travelers. The soul fusion of Joshua, enlisting him with resurrective abilities. Its universal operations function by a single unit of consciousness . All performances being compliant, for every equilibrium influencing surrounding equilibriums become balanced into one system.*PROVIDE THERMODYNAMIC THEORY* This principle gives it the ability to transfer astral kinetics of any quantity acrossed any immeasurable distance. Detailing another service, automative maintenance and figuration. All presence of energy, matter and ether decay into a state of one, which equalizes the change and adapts it with the previous state. Initializing why every form of mass binds in unison through diverse effects much like quantum decay. In other words sentient morphic status, the conformed unity of all interactions. Its creation's*astral plane* constructed primarely of miscelaneous thoughts. Strands formed in an imperceivable layer in the resonance spectrum. A layer with a title of mystique, " Dream Matter". An ether like collection of transitive memories. Having a frequincy with an altitudinous vibration which allows matter and energy to pass unhindered. Being ether it's defined by its own statistics governed through the Nexus. Instead of chemical reactions dream matter is composed by affections. Thoughts which originate from every reality and circulate in the cosmos through formal means. Giving the Nexus another ability, omniscience over all omniversal affairs. Every conscious being thinks, learns and questions, where the subjected transcend to the mental realm. Consolidating the creator's knowledge, signatures, memories, wisdom etc..*Not finished*

3. Nexus Evolution

1. It's an ability which takes four to five turns. The end result it converts existence's entirety into an infinite sentient morphic Neo-Astral. Each turn converts another segment of existence like a plague.

4. Entirety Shield

A shield uniting all the psychic power from astral akin and travelers alike with the entirety of astral kineticism. Which creates a seven layered seal fortifying neo-astral against all attacks.

5. Astral Gatekeeper

A. It's the consciousness/ sentiency of Joshua's staff. A six foot rainbow blended weapon with a lunar sickle mounted upon the top aligned with four two feet morbid spikes. The spikes have a secondary ability allowing them to extend up to great lengths as replicated projectiles. It's capable of manifesting and acting as a second sentient conscious form which has all the summoning abilities of Joshua. Resembling a lion with a silverback's physique. Customed with an omnifarious colored mane and a blazing phoenix's tail. Conclusively the fabled beast wields adamantine talons. With sentiency intact, the side effect, when used in melee during pc, shatters the subconscious and conscious ligature even if missed by one to three feet. In mp its ability disorients the subconscious and consciousness in the same distance leaving the opponent involuntarily confused.

B. The Astral Gatekeeper's t1 pc ability description: As I said previously it shatters the subconscious and consciousness leaving the opponent as a vegetable left to die. Incapable of thinking or reacting. Just a mindless puppet.

C. Astral Gatekeeper's Pc Mechanics: It dismantles the link between the three segments of consciousness: ichchha, jnana, and kriya. Translated ; will, wisdom and activity. The three states of consciousness link the being who has them to the three great worlds B ichchha or will to the self, jnana or wisdom to the world of consciousness itself, and kriya or activity to the world of things or being, jnana being the essence of consciousness. Now before I dive further into the mechanics let me explain a little bit more about consciousness, it's two fold as being receptive and aware and as being active and influential. Each part of the third is a faculty and power. So each segment is a different divinity by its own faculty. With this understood the Astral Gatekeeper's sentiency and consciousness acts as an imposing force very similar to the faculties and their power. Relative in nature and and almost twin like in statistics. In lamen terms its a purified force of jnana which over powers the consciousness and crushes it.

D. Astral Gatekeeper's t1 mp ability: As stated previously it disorients the opponent's mind do to disrupting the flow of the subconscious and conscious.

E. Astral Gatekeeper's t1 mp Mechanics: Same mechanic idea as Astral Gatekeeper's Pc Mechanics.

6. ~~~ Aega~~~

1. Aega is a systematic force which is spawned off of the Ryuujin. It wields the past memories of “deceased” Ryuujin, as well as their power. It is the Ryuujin’s life-blood, allowing them to go weeks, sometimes even years without the need to eat, breathe, or sleep. In being part of the Ryuujin, it cannot be destroyed unless the Ryuujin are, and the same can be said in the Ryuujin’s case– they cannot be destroyed unless the aega is. The aega works like a virus, or aids. It acts towards the basic fundamental forces,weakening them, then over riding them entirely: heat, gravity, kinetic, and aether. Using these basic essences, it fuels itself from their building blocks, and then enacts replicas of itself onto the siphoned area. This creates the spheric effect of exponential aegis growth. In essence, it is constantly gaining power.
