Name: Blood Surge
Type: Form
Catalyst: Willpower and Mana
Activation: Full Post
Duration: until the User uses the Technique "Deep Breath", runs out of Mana, or runs out of health.
Requirements: Bushi Style, Mortal/physical body.
Description: Focus your Mana to disable your body's natural limiters to give yourself a +3 Strength advantage and attack with reckless abandon, at the cost of some Mana and Health for every physical action you take. The mortal body is capable of using 100% of its muscular power, but typically it limits itself to only using about 80% of its maximum potential, since using 100% is more than the body can handle. When in times of extreme stress, that extra 20% is sometimes unlocked, and referred to as "Hysterical Strength". Blood Surge operates on the same Principle but uses Mana constantly to cushion the damage you'd cause to your own body from accessing Hysterical Strength on its own. Once you've exhausted all of your Mana, not even your adrenaline will be able to keep you going.. The sudden shock of burning out all of your Mana and accelerated deterioration of your muscles will force you out of the Blood surge state.. There may be certain abilities or powers to effectively allow you to maintain Blood Surge as long as you like, but that would be assuming you never took enough hits to overshadow those abilities.. Which is not very practical, or Realistic.
