Fujutsu

Fujutsu (巫術, "Shamanic Sorcery") is the ability to manipulate Furyoku. It is mainly used by Shamans to combat Yokai. The term "Fujutsu" is generally used to encompasses all mystical arts and combat forms used by Shamans.

Origins
Fushū (巫宗, "Shamanic Sect") is the religion and the peaceful precursor of modern Fujutsu created by Asanoha, the first one to learn and teach about the phenomenon of Furyoku.

The teachings of Fushū were meant to help people find salvation through a better understanding of one's own spirit and their connection to a higher plane of existence. It would later evolve into Fujutsu, a weaponized version of spiritual manipulation used to combat Yokai from the Demon Realm.

Furyoku

 * Main Article: Furyoku.

To use Fujutsu, the Shaman must be able to manipulate their Furyoku, as it is essential to even the most basic Shamanic techniques. Furyoku is created when it's two main components, which are two other forms of energy, are molded together. Yang (陰, Physical Energy) is collected from each and every one of the body's cells and can be increased through training, stimulants, and exercise. Yin (陽, Mental Energy) is derived from the mind's consciousness and can be increased through studying, meditation, and experience.

Basic Applications
Most Yokai are vulnerable to a Shaman's Furyoku due to its conflicting nature with their Yoki. Fujutsu can be used to cleanse anyone afflicted by miasma poisoning. Basic Fujutsu can also be used to create an effect that would not be possible otherwise, such as walking on water, moving at extreme speeds, or increasing their own physical strength.

Purification: Furyoku can be used to counteract the negative properties of Yoki. Basic releasing of Furyoku is generally enough to lift weak curses from a person or object.

Nullification: By nullifying the flow of Furyoku within their own bodies, Shamans can hide their presence from spiritual beings or other Furyoku sensitive humans. Normally nullifying someone else's Furyoku is impossible, but if achieved, the user can completely shut off an opponent's access to Furyoku.

Reinforcement: Furyoku can be used to enhance the physical properties of an object or even the user's body. By shrouding their body in Furyoku, a Shaman can protect themself from miasma and other toxic effects from Yoki. By doing so with their weapons, a Shaman can increase the destructive power of their offensive tools.

Advanced Applications
Fuheki (巫壁, "Shamanic Barrier"): A defensive ability used by those well versed in Fujutsu. This technique constructs a spherical barrier made of Furyoku around the user. Its strength depends on the user but breaking through usually requires the use of some kind of supernatural energy.

Fuho (巫歩, "Shamanic Steps"): An ability that reinforces the soles of the user's feet with Furyoku. This is generally used to give the user a burst of speed, allowing them to momentarily move faster than the eye can see. Fuho can also be used to climb steep paths with only the user's feet. Advanced users of Fuho can even walk on water or glide in mid-air.

Specialized Fujutsu
Furo (巫閃, "Shamanic Flash"): Fujutsu that compresses Furyoku into bullets before releasing it as an energy projectile. This is usually achieved by imbuing the user's firearm with Furyoku and condensing it before firing.

Fuoto (巫音, "Shamanic Sound"): Fujutsu that infuses sound with Furyoku in order to perceive, generate, and manipulate sound waves. This is usually achieved through the usage of a musical instrument that has its sound amplified by the user's Furyoku.

Fuhōgō (巫縫合, "Shamanic Sutures"): Fujutsu that generates Furyoku threads that can be used for a wide variety of purposes, including healing and puppetry.

Onmyo Magic

Onmyōdō (陰陽道, "Onmyo Magic"): Mystical arts based on advanced spells derived from Furyoku manipulation. These spells are produced using ofuda talisman or paper dolls and fall into three categories: Offensive Magic, Binding Magic, and Healing Magic. Depending on their requirements, Onmyodo spells can be triggered rituals, incantations, hand seals, or any combination of the three.

Necromancy

Shiryōjutsu (死霊術, "Necromancy): Dark magic that manipulates the Furyoku residuals left behind within the bodies of the dead. This allows Necromancers to control the remains of dead humans and animals. By tapping into the Furyoku residuals left within skeletons and corpses, Necromancers can grant their reanimated puppets supernatural abilities.

Fujutsushiki

Fuhyōi (巫憑依, "Shamanic Possession"): A technique that willingly allows a Shaman's Guardian Spirit to possess their body. This allows the user to utilize their partner's abilities for themselves at the cost of their Furyoku. Mastering Fuhyōi is the first step to developing a Fujutsushiki.

Fujutsushiki (巫術式, "Shamanic Techniques"): The ultimate form of Fujutsu which creates metaphysical construct that fashions an apparition to a physical object in order to manifest its supernatural abilities. Guardian Spirits can only take physical shape through a body Furyoku, and a Shaman can only draw out the full power of their Furyoku by utilizing their Guardian's spiritual form. There are three types of Fujutsushiki: Weapon-type, Armor-type, or Summon-type.
