Directors Cut is a Domain based technique that is grounded in the world of acting and theater.

Innate technique- Once opened the user and anyone in the domain will be put into a scene of The Directors choice. The Director is a Shikigami who controls everything in the scene , it is sitting outside the scene in a theater watching the occupants of the domain from in front of a screen , Anyone within the domain who is not the User of the technique will be unaware of the Director and will just be cast as a mindless Character within the scene ,the script being the sure hit. The caster of the domains job is to move the director with their performance. If The Director is pleased with the Users performance they will be given their time to shine as The Director in the real world. The domain shatters and the Shikigami is turned into Cursed Tool of the same name , a Bullhorn in which actions can be spoken into and manifest.

The Directors Abilites:
Que- Allows the user to manifest phenomena into the world such as lightning or A tree falling over
Casting- Allows willing participants to be given commands by the Director be it temporary abilities or moving to another set (location)
Action and Cut - This turns the Bullhorn into Clapboard which can freeze and or resume action within the set (The user is also unable to move during these actions)
Extras - This ability allows the user to summon Shikigami shaped like regular “people” to do tasks nothing too crazy just mundane things or basic combat
Props- The user can summon everyday objects to spice up their performance nothing insane like cursed tools just things such as rope and clothes for wardrobe changes

Passive ability: Like Hikari the user is able to use an ability from the domain this ability is called Mic Check it allows the user to adjust the volume of their voice in any way gaining the ability to speak at devastating volumes. The user can also summon one prop of their choosing once a day It will materialize in their pocket or hand once they known what they want.

Limitations:
Sets: A set is the only place The Director will work they are the size of a smaller arena stadium (about 250 meters) from where the domain was cast.
The users is able to use The Director in previous Sets they have made before.
Cursed Energy Consumption: Surprise Surprise the ability to warp reality is very taxing and basically useless for sorcerers with a low reserves only being able to give out 5-6 commands at a time
Casting: The Director can not cast themselves in their own production and those they do cast must be willing to participate in the exhibition
The Directors choice : The Director is very precise with his decisions in his production so the user must give a truly award winning performance to gain its praise and abilities
Time Limit: The Director is very busy and can not take too much time out of its day to mess around so the user can only access its abilities for no longer than a scene in a movie about 1-3 minutes the only way to extend this is to keep The Director interested in the performance

This is a list of Techniques and ideas I have fully fleshed out or am just too lazy to flesh out. Usually come up with them at work to pass the time so my minds not fully in it (yes I’m a Jjk fan with a job)

•Extra Ordinary - An ability that allows the user to do anything a human can do but 20 times better they are faster they jump higher then even sneeze better
Maximum technique : Extraordinary - this takes there technique to a super natural limit extreme speed , falling with style , insane vision

-(An alternate idea for the maximum was to make Extraordinary an extension technique and the new maximum allowing the user to be the absolute best at one thing for a limited amount of time)

•See no Evil - An eye contact made with the users body will result in damage being taken the amount and severity of damage depending on how long and how much of the users body is seen.
Usually the damage will reflect on the body part they look at for example if you look at the users are for a fraction of a second a small cut will appear on yours. The technique make users rely on sensing cursed energy instead of actually seeing their target but with a body completely steeping in cursed energy they shouldn’t be hard to miss

-I was thinking of Flesh shikigami that can use the ability depending of what part of flesh the user rips off
- Have a lot of interest in this technique seems fun to work with maybe will give it a full post once i put more thought into it
- Ideas for a maximum is Death Touch if the target touch the user they die yes it seems OP but I find there could be a lot of work around such as long range attacks and the fact that it’s not the user who can kill with a touch the target has to purposely touch them
- Extension maybe a Hear no Evil technique kind of like a siren song that lulls targets into looking at the user ,who knows

•Deadlock - An ability that makes the user untouchable when they cease movement and attack throw at them while they are stay still is rendered useless and a reversal being any attack they throw cause temporary paralysis allowing extra hits to be thrown in

•Movement lag - This and deadlock were thought about at the same time so very similar basically the users body lags like a video game so they will freeze but as long as they know what their action was and intention was it will still be thrown and appear in the first position of their next action.
Examples throw punch you freeze you freeze infront of the targets face but the punch still lands and you will then instantly appear in position for your next attack so if you planned on doing an uppercut next you will be suddenly ducking low with a fist to follow.
(I actually really like this one and as I’m typing this I’m realizing how cool and simple it is very disorienting.)

•Unnamed spider technique - This allows the user to summon 3 spider like Shikigami with the ability to divide into weaker Shikigami or fuse into one stronger shikigami , Strength of attacks obviously depending on the size of the Shikigami
Abilities :

- Strong web’s virtually unbreakable when fully fused
-Vemon
Strength depending on size
Completely divided: small stinging pain
3 Spider form: Very painful and disruption of Cursed Energy flow
Fully Fused: Complete Cursed Energy paralysis and cell destruction
- Cursed Energy absorption the spiders need to be constantly absorbing cursed energy either from the user or a target , Most user tend to have 2 spider on both wrist to command and absorber CE and 1 out in the field for offense
Maximum technique- The spiders fully fuse and inject venom into their user giving them the abilities of the spiders and strength boost (like Stim boost)
Cost is majority of cognitive thought being lost the poison taking over their brain and massive CE tax causing the user to try and absorb CE from their target

•Relationship boost - depending on their feelings towards a target the user will expel curses or buffs to who ever they are fighting
Passive ability- Their emotions will effect the world around them depending on how strong the emotion like strong winds when angry or the air around them being super warm and cozy when they feel good
Positive relationships: Boost in output and Automatic RCT even if the target doesn’t know how to use it and many other wonderful gifts
Negative relationships: Cursed energy Output will severely affective and random damage will appear on the target during the fight , Wounds that have already been made can start to become worse over time.
Maximum technique: Truth/Love Bomb - The user manifest their true feelings in a massive volatile projectile the effect of the blast will depend on how they truly feel in their subconscious about the target
Positive effect- Full CE Reserves being refilled, Being healed even on the brink of death, And extreme luck
Negative effect- Temporary cursed technique removal and and actual damage from the explosion followed by stupendous bad luck
Neutral effects - if feelings aren’t too strong the effect will usually depend on what way they lean for the person but the results of the blast will be less like a hand grenade instead of a C4(this goes the same for the innate technique)

This Cursed tool found on the battle field of on the body of a Sorcerer during the rise of Samurai The Heian Era. A sword with no blade Just a lonely hilt stained with the blood of its owner. It was moved around from owner to owner for years until it whereabouts were lost to time and its only appearance being in the mouths of sorcerers through rumor.

The EveryBlade - The EveryBlade has the ability to materialize a blade of whatever its hilt touches , Buildings, Air , anything physical.

-Once the New wielder is able to recognize the soul of the EveryBlade they can utilize it to its full potential being able to make a blade out of non physical things such as space or light

-Each blade will have a unique ability depending on what it is made out of

Example: A blade made out of a Hotel will relax and refresh any sliced by it or summon the amount of water within a hotel pool

•A blade of leaves being able to absorb and be powered by Solar Energy photosynthesizing

• A blade of wrapping paper able to wrap anyone it slices binding them

•A blade of space which is unseeable the whole blade being the space of which the user perceives

The Femo Clan is a branch family of the Kamo Clan , In early times blood manipulation users who were less than optimal were outcast to the Mountains of Japan. Iron rich hot springs filled the region being the main source of water for all life around, The plants to the animals and even the air everything packed with iron. The Femo clans diet without their knowledge was chalked with it causing their bodies to adapt with each generation. Iron rich blood dark and dense coursing into their new sturdy and flexible to handle their newly dense blood.

Over time the Femo clan would lose their ability to manipulate their blood but would gain the ability to control the iron in it. Their blood constitution now being 85% iron.

Innate ability - Femokinesis: Users of this ability can manipulate the iron in their blood and make constructs out of it hardening and oxidizing in the first 5 it’s given form. The ability to make layers of armor and weapons of pure iron.

Like Blood manipulation users Femokinesis user are able to covert cursed energy into iron being a work around to RCT. Femo Clan Members noses also have a keen sensitivity to iron able to smell the iron in people blood from a 2 miles away making hunting easier for them.

Extension Technique - Melting Point: This is Femo Clans version of “Convergence” users can rapidly pump their blood to the point where the iron in their blood becomes molten only survivable due to their veins and organs adapting to become more flexible and strong to handle their bloods density. Once their blood is molten they can shoot it out at high speeds like PB its speed is highest when first shot same with its heat, The longer it goes the more it hardens and loses speed becoming a metal barb after a medium distance.

Levitate: While super heated the user acts as an opposite magnetic force to the liquid outer core of the earth allowing the user to levitate.

Maximum Technique - Metal Mentality: The user condenses their blood into tiny grains of air iron almost like a spore .When breathed in the user affects the targets motor functions binding and manipulating foes from the inside and causing acute fatigue from overexposure of iron.

Domain Expansion - Transfusion: All within the domain are greeted with a sea of blood knee deep. This is a physical representation made by the sure hit of the domain. The User of the domains dark blood starts pooling with in the sea a very clear difference in hue. Targets starts throwing up their bodies not being able to handle the sheer amount of iron within their body. Metal poisoning eroding tissue,muscles , and organs a transfusion of the deadliest degree

(Fe (iron) + Hemo (Blood) + kaMO clan = Femo Clan)
