Weapons and Constructs

Chi-based weaponry and construct creation reference.

Definition: Create constructs out of chi.
Capabilities: Transform chi into shapes from simple representations to functional tools, weapons, entities, structures, environments. Create nearly anything understood.
Applications: Appendages, Armor, Barriers, Duplicates, Entity creation, Platforms, Portals, Restraints, Vehicles, Weapons
Limitations: May be restricted to existing chi (no generation). Requires concentration/stamina. Dissipate if user loses focus or consciousness. Complexity limited by imagination/knowledge.

Definition: Create weapons from chi.
Capabilities: Generate from nothing or shape existing chi. Any weapon type in desired quantities. Imbue with chi abilities.
Applications: Concussive Force, Cutting, Pain Inducement
Limitations: May be restricted to single chi type. Some can't generate independently. Durability depends on skill; some require constant maintenance.

Definition: Create bladed weapons from chi energy.
Capabilities: Swords, spears from chi manipulation. Cut through virtually anything.
Applications: Blade Elongation, Razor Attacks, Slash Projection, Charged Attacks
Limitations: Ineffective against Anti-Energy Manipulation. May need physical medium (hilt). Chi depletes quickly. Impossible if chi system is injured/sealed. Countered by Life-Force Inhibition.

Definition: Use chi-based power via a blade. Either inherently chi-based or enhancing user's abilities.
Capabilities: Effect generation, invulnerability bypassing, selective damage, elemental manipulation.
Applications: Slash Projection, Sword Beam Emission, Cutting Wave
Limitations: May require specific sword. Powerless without weapon. Sword can be stolen/broken. Power strain. Demands training.

Definition: Master-level wielding of chi-based sword/blade.
Capabilities: Manipulate and reshape blade form/properties. Adapt to combat situations. Versatile due to chi's unrestricted nature.
Limitations: Duration depends on skill. Finite reserves. Damage to chi system impairs. May require physical medium.

Definition: Create pole-arms (glaives, halberds, spears, scythes) from chi.
Capabilities: Various polearm types. Durability varies by willpower.
Limitations: Duration depends on skill. Sustained manifestation requires ongoing energy.

Definition: Deliver chi-based attacks using ranged weapons as conduits.
Capabilities: Use bows, guns, slingshots as conduits. Chi-infused projectiles with increased power.
Limitations: May only fire one type of chi effect. Potentially causes pain to user. Requires weapon medium.

Definition: Obtain chi-based powers through objects (accessories, armor, weapons, toys).
Capabilities: Impart chi powers to those lacking them. Augment existing abilities. Act as chi reservoirs. Function as conduits for remote chi sources.
Limitations: Inexperienced users struggle with control. Evil entities in objects may corrupt user. Ineffective if chi system is injured/sealed. Countered by Life-Force Inhibition.

Definition: Infuse subjects with chi. Manipulate capabilities of beings, objects, powers, concepts.
Capabilities: Augment/empower subjects. Inflict damage. Enhance weapons/tools. Create constructs/barriers. Manipulate attributes.
Limitations: May require physical contact. Often restricted to specific subject types. Control may be limited. Tied to user's physical/mental condition.
