Evelyn/Rokushiki

### Rokushiki

*Rokushiki* is an inherently superhuman martial arts style otherwise referred to as the Six Powers requiring one to significantly train one's body and improve one's baseline physical condition to the realm of superhuman feats in order to truly achieve without reliance on channeling one's respective manifestations of flux. During her rigorous training at her expedition with Raptor, Evelyn trained under one of the foremost masters in the given martial arts style in the Black Sheep Instructor Legionnaire of her generation in Dusty. With the intensity of the training seeing Evelyn's physicality both tested and improved, Evelyn's natural battle intelligence enabled her to pick up on the techniques and the inner mechanisms of the techniques rather quickly throughout her training, eventually manifesting in developing advanced techniques at a relatively early stage in the adoption process that rely on the ability to have the principles of these techniques combined with and reflected in her Eden in active combat.

These advancements in Rokushiki seemingly sidestep various limitations of the individual techniques that would typically need specialized advancements as well as significant time to develop and train one's body and muscles for the level of responsivity, efficiency and fine-tuned control required to otherwise develop them, giving Evelyn a significant advantage over her peers as well as considerably improving her effective physical attributes by an order of magnitude.

* **Soru:** Widely considered to be the most fundamental of all of the six Rokushiki, Soru is a technique that seemingly allows an individual practitioner to move at tremendous, at times imperceivable speeds to both avoid attacks as well as attack at much greater speeds and with similarly enhanced levels of power. When used effectively, Soru is an extremely powerful weapon in a combatant's arsenal, capable of being utilized in order to drive and deal significant injury to an opponent by greatly reinforcing the momentum and power of their blows. While Evelyn has learned how to use this technique with considerable efficiency, through experimenting with the technique in Tyrant Evelyn invented the first of her *Swarm Shift: Six Powers* series of techniques that blend superhuman martial arts with the inhuman resilience of her Tyrant, **Swarm Shift: Tachi.** Taking the fundamental principle of Soru in kicking off the ground at least ten times in the blink of an eye, when combined with her Springboard technique, the energy used in this fundamental core of the technique from each kick is stored up in the spring-like properties of her greaves, ramping up with the energy of her already blindingly quick motion needed in order to utilize Soru in the first place. The result is a technique that appears to be an order of magnitude greater than her typical use of Soru in potency and efficacy, with each kick having it's energy stored and empowering the next until it boils over and explodes in a violent burst of speed when she moves. This guiding principle of Tachi can be applied along the rest of her Tyrant as well as Soru itself can, and is only made more impressive when one considers her ability to *boost*; in effect serving as a technique that dramatically augments her striking power and combat speed to devastating levels such that the sound of her blows create extremely loud reverbations throughout her environment. In particular, Tachi is a key component in her usage of a recently derived technique, **Swarm Strike: Gatling.**
* **Tekkai:** The Tekkai is another of the Six Powers that focuses on hardening the users' muscles to the level of iron, in order to nullify damage taken from attacks. With training with Dusty, Evelyn's physical resistance to attacks even without the active utilization of Tekkai has substantially improved, and she has since become capable of hardening her muscles considerably. However, as with Soru, Evelyn has also created a modification of Tekkai that she places within her *Swarm Shift: Six Powers* series of techniques that exploit principles of endurance learned by studying Dakota, **Swarm Shift: Mokukou.**
