Primordial Blood

Name: The Primordial Blood

Appearance: In The Description

When you learned this tech: I want permission before I learn it in a thread

Duration: For your consideration, it's all dependent on the state of the user and whatnot, although Seven or Eight posts seems fair to me.

Using Rights: Close to Dying (unless trained with)

Requirements/Preparations: Need to be moments from dying (the first few times, training can overcome this)

Description: Within those of a certain breed exists The Primordial Blood. It is the missing link between Apes and Man, as well as the future link between Man and Shinigami or Hollow. In essence, The Primodial Blood is the DNA sequence that controls everything once the body STOPS functioning it. To those that can manipulate their DNA, especially users of Retribution, they can activate this dna sequence and undergo a specific transformation entitled Sliding. Once he Slides, he undertakes a very intense form that allows him to fight naturally on par with many supernatural foes.

As cliche as it is, The Primordial Blood can only be accessed in times of absolute need, 99% of this being life-or-death situations. Once the genetic key is activated, the owner of the Primordial Blood grows slightly, an intense gain in muscle mass requiring the body to stand at nine feet tall (on average). From the spinal chord extends a tail, which is quickly covered in fur (as is the rest of the body). This fur is actually similar in compositon to steel wool, and is very tough. It provides great defense. The skin naturally toughens as well, increasing the defense gained from the wool-like fur. The hands and feet of the user become too big for whatever shoes or gloves they may have been wearing, and will most likely have ripped through them. After their knees reverse, the heels raise up. The user is most likely standing on the balls of their feet now, as comfortably as ever.

Sharp, strong claws grow from fingers and toes, as well as equally dangrous fangs grow from an elonged jaw. The nose shifts from that of a human (or humanoid) into that of a canines, as do the ears. The eyes occasionally change colors (depending on the user) into a red or gold. Gold usually indicates an Alpha, and Red usually indicates a Beta. No color change indicates a pack member, though this isn't always the case. Every sense exempt taste and touch increases exponentially, though this can be as dangerous to the user as to their victims.

After the transformation, and until the transformation is expelled, Retribution cannot be used or accessed. It is either one or the other while in their Slide state, occasionally referred to as a Catalyst State. To make up for it besides the physical advantages, the user is now able to focus Reishi and Reiatsu through their body and use it to enhance attacks, as well as send it through their fur to turn their entire body into a blade. Because of this, users very rarely have weapons.
