## Magecraft

**Magecraft** (魔術, *Majutsu*?) is a Skill that denotes a Servant's knowledge of Modern Thaumaturgy.

 Elizabeth has a very acute knowledge of modern magecrafts as a practitioner of them herself. She has gone so far as to use her unique Origin and Elemental Affinity to create a new Thaumaturgical System, unique to her and her only: Haemomancy. Attempts to recreate the system have all but failed; that is how unique the system created by Elizabeth Báthory is.

## Mana Burst

**Mana Burst** (魔力放出, *Maryoku Hōshutsu*?) is the increase in performance caused by infusing one's weapons and body with Magical Energy before instantly and explosively expelling it. Simply put, it is the ability to recreate the effect of a jet burst by expending large amounts of Magical Energy.

 King Arthur uses this Skill mainly for defense and high-speed movement. Executing large-scale body reinforcement through Mana Burst is only possible with King Arthur’s immense magical power. While he himself possesses average physical strength, he has managed to defeat countless enemies by strengthening all of his actions with his excessive magical energy.

## Mana Burst (Flame)

 The Dragon blood in her veins is of the dragon subspecies that produces thunder and as such, her original *Mana Burst* Skill was modified to reflect this. She uses her electricity with deadly precision especially after studying how electricity works in the modern world. After all, she had lived several centuries too early to see electricity kick-start into the phenomenon that it is in the present day.

## Mana Burst (Water)

## Mental Pollution

**Mental Pollution** (精神汚染, *Seishin Osen*?) is a Skill where due to possessing a distorted mentality, it is possible for one to shut out any mental interference Thaumaturgy. However, at the same time, it becomes impossible for one to come to a mutual understanding with individuals who do not possess an equivalent rank of Mental Corruption.

## Monstrous Strength

**Monstrous Strength** (怪力, *Kairiki*?) is a Skill that temporarily grants a *Rank Up* to one's *Strength* parameter for a time limit determined by the ranking of this Skill. It is borne from the holder's nature as a monster or Demonic Beast.

## Protection from Wind

**Protection from Wind** (風除けの加護, *Kaze-yoke no Kago*?) is a chant that offers prayers to God, that oneself might receive a charm (spell) of protection against sandstorms and evil spirits such as Jinns. The skill originates mostly from Servants of the Middle East. To call it a "*charm*" smacks of superstition, but the strength of its warding is tremendous.

## Protection of the Lake

Because there is no basis to it, it cannot be explained to others clearly and t is a Skill held by the soul of the user.
