Aura (RWBY)

Cost: 10 SP

You have the power of Aura from RWBY. You can gift the power of Aura to others if you can figure out how. Aura will absorb most damage done by any physical or elemental attack you're aware of, give you a bit of a sixth sense, and will enhance your strength, speed, durability, stamina, senses, and reflexes. Aura depletes upon taking damage or as you fatigue – and takes a period of time to recharge once it’s gone.

Eventually, you’ll discover your Semblance - an expression of your soul’s true form, fueled by Aura.

Auric Blade

You are able to form your Shehai from any part of your Aura, having your Spirit Sword suddenly form on your heel mid-kick is surprisingly effective. Aura has a profound effect on your Shehai, stabilizing it with the light of your soul, no longer requiring constant focus. You are able to awaken an individual's Shehai in a very similar manner to how Aura is awakened. As you have learned how to both protect and attack with your very soul, you experience twice the growth you otherwise would. The best defense is a good offense, and you take that to heart. You are able to sacrifice your Aura in order to improve your Shehai's capabilities, initially you are only able to sacrifice half of your Aura for a 25% boost to your Shehai. With time you will be able to control exactly how much Aura is sacrificed, and even improve the conversion rate.

Soul-Body Connection

Your Aura connects your soul to your body without tension, it is now easier for you to influence reality through your Aura. Your Aura is qualitatively better than the norm when it comes to efficiency, durability, and versatility. Additionally, your aura's protections now extend to provide an incredible defense from non-physical attacks, including poisons, sickness, Trumps, Masters, Strangers, reality rewriters, and any power that directly affects others, so long as your aura remains unbroken.

Redefined Restrictions

You have found a way to manipulate the copied Semblances you receive in the Classroom, this allows you to sacrifice specific parts of a Semblance in order to increase another aspect. You are now able to awaken your students to both Aura and Shehai at the same time, granting them an individualized form of Auric Blade. Your golden pages can now be used in much more esoteric manners, from permanently copying Semblances to creating a new power from a sealed object. Your ability to affect your Shehai using outside sources has increased tremendously, you are now able to affect your Aura with these bonuses. In combination with a golden page you'd even find yourself capable of modifying your True Students Shehai with their permission.

Soul Unbound

Aura, Shehai, Marble, these words are terms lesser wielders use to try and identify Soul, your soul no longer has any form limitations. You can use a brick as a sword, a spear as a shield, a marble as a mace, your intent no longer binds the shape of your Soul. You are able to manifest your Shehai more than once, although it will cost dramatically more at first, you may eventually adjust to this spiritual drain. Even having a Reality Marble filled with Swords is akin to Unlimited Blade Works is possible (although don’t forget to give credit where credit is due). You may condense your Aura into solid pieces, through this you can make Aura Armor, giving you the same benefits as normal Aura with a magnitude of difference.

Classroom of Semblances

Now when you light up your student's aura, you also receive an additional golden page if given a student's true gratitude. Your students are guaranteed to awaken their semblance even without your help, with your support you are able to tailor semblances not yet unlocked to smooth out inconsistencies and faults that would be unwanted. Any student taught by you in the use of aura experiences a 10x growth multiplier during your teachings, and receives a 2x passive growth multiplier. Your True Students are able to access your Classroom of Semblances, an archive of all your True Students Semblances. Here all of your True Students are able to temporarily access other True Students Semblances, without sparing any additional energy, the shared semblances will only be a facade of their normal strength. True Students are able to volunteer a portion of their Aura in order to gain a stronger connection with another's Semblance, eventually reaching the strength of the original owners.

Mythical

The presence of spiritual power in your soul has synergistic effects with your aura stimulating it and making it grow to absurd levels. This has amplified the offense, defense, healing and all other abilities provided by your aura. Moreover, due to the absurd amount of aura and it's healing capabilities, your lifespan has been increased to around 1000 years (around the level of shinigami captains) and this continues increasing with the increase in spiritual power of your soul. This also allows you to use all your powers that are restricted to your soul form in physical body and increases the might of your semblance to an unprecedented level.

Standbound Auranomaly

Aura is a manifestation of the Soul, and Stands are a manifestation of the Soul. Because you have both Aura and a Stand, this allows you to project your Stand alongside your Aura, allowing you to use the power of your Stand directly. When your Stand is damaged, your Aura will be damaged before your body is. Only when your Aura is broken, can your body/Stand be damaged.
