Absorption Line

Absorption Line, also called Black Dragon's Pulse, is one of the Vritra's Sacred Gears. It has the power to drain the power of the people/objects it is connected to.
==Summary==
Absorption Line is among the numerous Sacred Gears created by the Biblical God before his death under the hands of the Four Great Satans in the Great War.
It is one of the four Sacred Gears which hold fragments of the soul and consciousness of the legendary Evil Dragon Vritra from Vedic mythology inside of them. It is unclear how and why the Biblical God managed to get his hands onto Vritra's soul, though Indra has stated that neither him nor the Hindu Pantheon have any intention to ever find out why - Not before, not now, and definitely not in the future.
Prior to Genshirou's birth, it was the only of the four Vritra's Sacred Gears to escape Azazel's clutches as its former wielder was able to escape and managed to seek shelter at the Catholic Church. According to Penemue, Azazel was so furiated by such failure that he accidentally caused a great famine in Bengal.
==Appearance==
Absorption Line takes the form of a black bracer on the user's dominant hand and is in the shape of a chameleon-like lizard with violet eyes and a deformed face.
==Abilities==
Absorption Line can produce multiple glowing blue lines from the lizard's mouth that can be used to restrain opponents and/or objects, and forcefully drain the magical energy of the restrained. The absorbed energy can then either be used to empower the wielder and their attacks/weapons, or to be transferred to others via the lines. It can also launch the absorbed power as powerful blasts of energy.
It can be used to absorb the natural magical power in the environment and transmute it into various kinds of supernatural energies, from ethereal to infernal, with celestial energy being the sole exception. It can also be used to exsanguinate blood and transform it into life-force and stamina.
Despite their size, the lines the Sacred Gear created are extremely durable and cannot be cut by mundane metals, as only sacred metals or draconic weapons can be used to sever them. The wielder can, however, actively sever the lines and telekinetically manipulate them afar, controlling them so that they can attach themselves onto new surfaces to ensnare targets. 
When used in tandem with other Vritra's Sacred Gears, it can transfer the flames of Blaze Black Flare along the lines and cancel out abilities from a longer distance using Delete Field.
==Forms==
===Malebolge Vritra Promotion===
Malebolge Vritra Promotion, also called Dragon King's Flame Prison of Guilt, is Genshirou Saji's X-Side Balance Breaker of all four Vritra's Sacred Gears, Absorption Line included. It creates a black Scale Mail which strengthens Genshirou's capabilities, with metallic spade-tipped tentacles growing out of the back capable of piercing through any kind of defenses to absorb the opponent's life-force until they turn them into ashes in mere seconds.
==Trivia==
*Like other Vritra's Sacred Gears, it's categorized as a special Trap-typed Sacred Gear.
