Cursed Technique: Elasticity (WIP)

Elasticity is an innate Cursed Technique that allows the User to bring the concept of Elasticity into reality. This is done by the User creating a point, Point A, after making physical contact with the target. This forms a “barrier” between the target and anything coming into contact with the target or getting close to it (called Point B).

The barrier is based on the positions of Point A and Point B and ensures that the general position stays the same over a period of time, using an output of force through cursed energy as a means to do so.

This force output counteracts any input force and the User is able to adjust the time period at will. Should the position of point A change during the time interval, it's position has priority over that of point B. This can be used to create a forced output force, such as by punching point B and then having the output force act as a “secondary punch”

Extension Technique: Stretch

Stretch is an extension Technique that allows the User to focus on one specific area of the target, creating a much smaller point A. This can be used to make opponents harm themselves by moving, as the force output forcibly tries to readjust their body to its previous position or it can be chained together to make a spreading wave of force output.

By making the wave itself also a target of the cursed technique, the User can use the wave to create pseudo-elasticity in the objects. To fully make use of this, the User has to also make themself another point A, the resulting clash between the different force outputs will then allow them to fully interact with the elastic wave.

Im working on a cursed technique called "Familiar Combustion Technique" that allows the user to conjure a cursed tool similar to a Tanegashima matchlock. The User is able to fire cursed energy blasts through this rifle, but the real advantage comes when it is combined with the summoning of Shikigami. Using their own hair as a medium (this is a binding vow build into the technique), the User can summon bullet-like Shikigami that are under full control of the User. The mouth of these Shikigami acts as an extension of the Users domain, meaning that they can pass through almost anything with ease and being hit by them makes regeneration using RCT more difficult.

A few extension techniques i had in mind would be one allowing the User to make their shikigami have domain amplification, as a way to bypass any defenses (though im unsure if this could work) and another one would be one allowing the User to summon a smaller, pepperbox-like gun instead, which fires multiple shikigami at once in exchange for a loss of range.

The maximum Technique would likely be very simple, something like firing a larger Shikigami using a larger rifle (the size and strength would obviously depend on the User). The domain is not something i have thought about yet and the Technique seems to simple to have a Technique Reversal.

Cursed Technique: Destruction Shikigami Summon
Destruction Shikigami Summon is an innate Technique that allows the User to spawn moth-like shikigami directly without the use of a medium, as their cursed energy itself acts as a medium. As the shikigami are solely made out of the Users cursed energy, they are able to manipulate them fully and even use them as an extension of their own cursed energy. In the hands of a skilled enough user, the Shikigami can even be used as an extension of their own senses.

Extension Technique: Lunar Knight
Lunar Knight is an extension Technique that creates a swarm of Shikigami and then breaks them apart to use as reinforcement for the users body or weapons. This allows the User to recreate parts of the Shikigami when necessary, allowing them to fly or use them as a way to counter damage.

Extension Technique: Heavenly Moth
By using RCT on the cursed energy composing a shikigami, the User is able to imbue them with positive energy that is active upon contact with the target. This can be used to heal others, destroy cursed spirits or even bring the user back from the brink of death.

Extension Technique: Steel String
Steel String is an extension Technique that allows the User to imbue their Shikigami with a barrier that is shared across multiple Shikigami. The lines between the Shikigami act as the boundaries for said barrier and allow the User to make use of new Shadow Style techniques. This is most commonly used to counter attacks without the need to deflect them with Shikigami.

Maximum Technique: Moonlight Departure
Moonlight Departure is the Maximum Technique of Destruction Shikigami Summon, allowing the User to create a gigantic moth-like Shikigami. The User is able to freely manipulate the cursed Energy of this Shikigami, allowing them to turn parts of it into a swarm of smaller Shikigami, reshape the Shikigami after it has been nearly destroyed or even use the entire Shikigami as a giant cursed energy reserve. By turning the entire Shikigami into a massive explosion, the User can temporarily gain one of the highest cursed energy outputs in history.

For the domain expansion im thinking something along the lines of a moon surface that is covered in dust, but said dust is actually a bunch of moths. But i am struggling to make it unique and not just another version of dagons domain.
