Bladecasting: An ability usually unique to those with Plates. The formation of a four-foot straight blade using the raw energy or physical manifestation of ones Element. The blade itself is unique to every user - based on a conviction key to their being without which the blade will not function, and composed of a basis of a single Pokémon move like any other Elemental Ability. The blade cannot be physically wielded and is instead controlled mentally. All blades share the ability to shatter into shards and reform back into a blade, these shards each carry the same effects or ability as the main blade and can be individually controlled. The number of shards a blade can shatter into and still be controlled is based wholly on the users level of Bladecasting skill. Advancement requires an enormous amount of time invested for even the most prodigious, or an experienced mentor. The individuals blade (named for the requisite conviction) is listed as a Unique Ability on their sheet and cannot be copied. (Novice: 4 shards) (Journeyman: 8 shards) (Expert: 12 shards) (Master: 16 shards) (Grandmaster: 32 shards, expanded basis). Because this ability is contingent on an artifact, Luna may not exceed the Master level of Bladecasting, regardless of how skilled she is with the blade.

Craft: (Metallurgy, Smithing): Behind every enchanter is the smith that creates the masterwork items that inspire their unique items. In the sisters, this position falls to Luna. She began learning the smithing trade during their second life on the Earth, and has spent every subsequent life perfecting, honing, and mastering her craft. Theres no bit of metalworking beyond her skill, and even her more basic creations exceed the craftsmanship one would traditionally find out in the world.

Songstress: Luna, like Celeste, in each life bears a voice so clear and powerful that its uses are many and varied. From shouting orders over the din of battle, to floating a whisper across a crowded room to a waiting ear. But her singing voice is truly awe-inspiring. Where her elder sister's voice is perfectly-pitched for the higher and more resonate notes, Luna can delve into the deeper and huskier tones that bring men to their knees with images of illicit rendezvous. In past lives, their duets were a thing of legend, able to bring people together or down to their knees - to fervor or despair. Their songs to celebrate dawn and dusk were said to be the reason that the sun and moon rose and set.

Supernatural Abilities_________________________________
└─Psychic, aura or astral abilities.
Empathy: Some peoples expertise in psychic ability lies more along the line of common skills: mind reading, teleportation, telekinesis. Luna's abilities, however, lie in another direction. Lunas familiarity with the human mind over lifetimes of experience has given her a unique perspective that aids her in this ability: to empathize and read the subtle emotional cues and ticks that people tend to display. Bolstered by her psychic ability, Luna is an empath of exceptional skill. Very few people, including her sister, are able to disguise how they feel from her. This is also a little bit of a pitfall for Luna, as it exacerbates her own tenuous control on her emotions, something at times made worse by how easily she forms connections with others due to her abilities.

Projection: Part of the unique skill set that allows Luna to view and interact with the dreams of others, Luna has the ability to manifest herself in the minds of others during their dreams. This is an ability that she has learned over many years, and is connected very heavily to her divine blessings from the Maiden of Dreams and the Full Moon, respectively. Without relying specifically on her divinely granted gifts, this power is strictly bolstering for her other abilities, letting her connect more easily with the mental spaces of others.

Telekinesis (Flight): Rather than the ability to lift and manipulate other objects, Luna's abilities with telekinesis are limited to herself and small objects designated as 'hers'. She's able to lift and sustain her own body in unaided flight at slightly above average speeds for short periods of time. Rather than teleportation, she uses this unique flight to get from point a to point b in times of emergency.

Telepathy (Specialized): While many psychics are able to read the mind of an individual, Luna may do so, but only if the subject is presently in a realm that Luna refers to as 'The Dreaming'. Represented as a glimpse into the sub-conscience mind, Luna is able to not only read, but also to a degree, interact with the mind of those who are dreaming. Additionally, she is able to use her telepathy to communicate with, but not read the mind of her sister, Celeste. This is rarely needed, however, as the two are so familiar with one another.

Unique Abilities_______________________________________
└─Powers unique to the character.
Devotion (Elemental Blade): Devotion is a four foot long blade composed of sparkling starlight and shifting shadows. The blade is cast from Luna's ring, and is fueled by her conviction to stand unwavering at her sister's side, despite her lack of a Plate bolstering her powers to the same level as Celeste's. The weapon itself is comprised of [Castigate], giving it the ability to inflict a supernatural lethargy upon struck enemies which compounds with each strike, slowing their movements and reaction speeds with each strike of the blade or its shards. Devotion is a unique Elemental Blade, the first of its kind in that it is contingent on the ring in Luna's possession. Despite this, the blade is quite old, and incredibly strong thanks to lifetimes of experience with the artifact, which is placed into the family reliquary after Luna's 'death' each lifetime, and returned to her after rebirth once Celeste regains her memories. Unlike Celeste, Luna doesn't mind utilizing the blade in true combat, as that, coupled with her other unique abilities often leave enemies unbalanced as to what powers she actually possesses, something which she uses quite often to her advantage.

Blessings of the Gods: Luna is an exceptional young woman who has been blessed over and over by the course of history, and in the powers that she possesses, she is doubly unique. Having had the chance to live many lifetimes over, each lifetime brings about new and unique experiences, and during these lifetimes, she has found herself pledged to not one, but three Legendary Beings; Arceus by virtue of her connection with her sister, Lunala by virtue of one of her earlier lifetimes, and Cresselia by virtue of one of her later lifetimes. While her connection to Arceus is less consistent than her connections to Lunala and Cresselia, Luna is possessed of both the Blessing of the Moon, and the Blessing of the Maiden. Typically, she is limited in each lifetime to which Legendary Being she may serve. In rare times of great peril, her blessings may unlock simultaneously, but to note, this only happens when she herself is struggling to keep great Darkness from her heart. This has happened only once before, and was during a period where her sister perished before her, in a fierce combat the pair were locked in. The result of activating both Legendary blessings resulted in her death, her body, even trained as it was, unable to withstand the divine pressure placed on her. On average, Luna must choose each lifetime, which Legendary Being she will devote herself to. In lifetimes where she awakens early, she frequently chooses Lunala. In lifetimes where her awakening happens later, she tends to drift naturally to Cresselia, as a way to curb the nightmares she is often plagued with. When the other 'blessing' is unavailable, Luna may activate one of two unique artifacts that have been passed down to her by her divine benefactors.

Blessings─┘ wrote:Maiden's Sight: A unique and singular ability granted to Luna through her connections to Cresselia. Maidens Sight allows Luna to peer into, and walk through the dreamscape of those she comes in contact with, or whose minds she is capable of reaching out to. Most frequently this manifests as precise control over the dreamscape, allowing her to interject, and even engage in combat in the realm she refers to as The Dreaming. While in The Dreaming, Luna may not directly invoke nightmares in those she comes in contact with, but may instead manipulate the dreamscape, allowing nightmares to seep into the mind of the user where before they might have been quelled. She can much more easily banish nightmares and quiet the unrest of another. This power doesnt seem to have a lot of practical application in combat, but allows her to walk into the dreamscape of anyone she can come in close contact with and force into slumber, putting both herself and them into The Dreaming, where she is unlimited by the constraints of her body. And after all, it's said that if you die in your dreams, your body will soon follow.

Moon's Touch: A unique and singular ability granted to Luna through her connection to Lunala. Moons Touch is a blessing that grants Luna a number of unique physical attributes. The ability to slip in and out of the corporeal like a ghost, with speed and dexterity that easily surpasses that of an ordinary human by several orders of magnitude. Her movements become a blur and her accuracy and dexterity is greatly increased. She becomes capable of jumping long distances, using her transphasic abilities to cushion her landing, and move in just such a way that others besides perhaps a ghost, might not be able to mimic. With this power, shes a guardian of the Night, the Full Moons Assassin. She has utilized this power over the course of many lifetimes to both serve as a private killer for the Concern, as well as committing herself to meting out justice against those who would act against humanitys best interests. This power also serves to broadly allow her to combat against the Darkness and any who might serve them, imbuing her with the overwhelming physical abilities to out-speed and out-maneuver those she is up against. While her strength is not enhanced, she usually makes up for it with the raw force behind the momentum of her movements.

Reincarnation: At a low point in her first life, Luna fell into the whispers of the Great Enemy, and turned on her sister Celeste. It was through a hoarse, whispered prayer so fervent and sincere that it blasted away the distance between simple woman and god that Arceus' intervention was rendered. Arceus granted Celeste the power to aid Luna, and held her to her promise, delivering his blessing upon both that they might walk through history's length and breadth, to prepare others for the coming times. When slain or dying of disease or old age, Celeste and Luna's souls and minds are separated from their bodies by divine will, and held in Arceus' afterlife to soothe the pains and aches of another life lived and ended - there to wait for its sister soul. When both souls are held side by side, and allowed time to refresh, they are sent back to the world, born again from a suitable mother carrying their bloodline. Their memories gradually awaken as they reach puberty, and it takes several years to sort through once fully returned, but their minds from each life prior remain intact. At times, Luna's awakening takes longer than that of Celeste, as her soul and mind are fortified against the grasp of Darkness.
