Binding Vow

A is a pact made with jujutsu that creates conditions for themselves or agreements with others.
== Overview == 
Binding vows are considered by all jujutsu users to be one of the essential tenets of jujutsu sorcery. Binding Vows are essentially contracts created through cursed energy that an individual can make with one's self or another person. The act of abiding by the rules and restrictions agreed upon in these contracts can result in a greater power or the achievement of a goal, but breaking a binding vow has uncanny repercussions.
== Vows with Oneself ==
Self-imposed restrictions that are potentially harmful to the creator, such as willingly limiting the amount of cursed energy they can use for a period of time, can increase the amount of the user's cursed energy and of their cursed techniques.
As a product of negative emotions, cursed energy responds to the desires of its individual user. As a result, the user can increase the power of their cursed energy by stating a self-imposed "Cursed Restriction" that creates riskier conditions to use their abilities. For example, by divulging one's cursed technique, it creates more risk for them, making their cursed energy swell in response to its user's resolve. 
In addition, creating rules for using one's cursed energy and abiding by those rules which allow their cursed technique to improve in strength. The penalty of breaking a binding vow with oneself is the loss of whatever was gained through the contract.

== Vows with Others ==
Contracts created between two or more individuals are bound by cursed energy. Both parties must agree to a particular set of conditions that benefit both parties. The penalty for breaking a Binding Vow with others is considered to be far greater than that of a self-imposed Binding Vow.

	Ui Uiv.Mei Mei 	Ui Ui has a contract with his sister Mei Mei where he agrees to limit his cursed energy until she gives him permission to use jujutsu. This stems from his own desire to please his elder sister.
	Kenjakuv.Sorcerers 	
	Yuta Okkotsuv.Higher-ups	In order to become Itadori's fake executioner, Yuta Okkotsu was forced into a Binding Vow with the jujutsu higher-ups where he was sworn to kill him. He then ends the Binding Vow when he does kill Itadori, but heals him with a reversed cursed technique in the very moment he does kill him, resurrecting him in a sense.
