Why is your character a Weapon and not a Meister?
Primarily, Jade is a Weapon because that is what he would consider himself to be in the SC universe: He’s been in the military for roughly two-thirds of his life, he lacks trust in his ability to make good decisions and he’s most well-known for his powers in his own world. Besides this, Jade lacks the motivation and drive to be a good Meister; he’s much better in a position where he can analyze and guide someone that’s more enthusiastic about the war than he is because he’s been shown to only demonstrate care and effort when someone else is leading the effort.
What is your character’s Weapon form? Why?
Jade’s Weapon form looks exactly like the glasses he wears because you’d hardly suspect an ordinary pair of glasses as being a pair of Demon Glasses and it also serves as a cover to how deceptive Jade is.
Indeed, it was really in the glasses.
What is your character’s Weapon Ability?
Jade’s power focuses on elemental catalysis; that is, the process of borrowing the innate elemental energy from his surrounding environment and amplifying it with a soul wavelength, whether it be on his own or with a Meister.
Wearing the glasses allows the Meister first to sense the existence of elemental energy around them, which are divided into four categories: Earth, Water, Fire and Lightning/Wind. How much they’re able to sense depends on their level of resonance with Jade as they’re borrowing fully from his own capabilities from his own world. At basic resonance, the Meister will only be able to see elemental formations in the form of colors and this only works if said elemental formation is constantly moving (For example, a fountain would be a good example of a water formation). At good resonance, the Meister will be able to hear sounds that relate to the elements at a higher level of sensitivity than normal people. As an example, they would be able to hear the gushing of water below them if there was a source of water below. Finally, at near-perfect resonance, the Meister will be able to sense the elements with all of their body, as if the energy is flowing directly into them.
The Meister’s level of sensitivity to the elements directly ties into his/her ability to absorb and then repel the elemental energy accumulated into their own body. When he/she collects the energy, the Meister’s and Jade’s Soul Wavelength are both utilized to expel the energy afterwards. Besides this function, the Meister may eventually learn how to manipulate his/her Soul Wavelength to concentrate the energy to work in certain ways, such as using it to imprison the enemy. Finally, Jade himself can also help to manipulate the energy; his ability to do this and lending more power to his Meister is affected by the amount of Kishin eggs that he’s consumed.
What changes?
I re-wrote the Weapon part so that it demonstrates more of of the characteristics I believed could tip the balance between being a Meister and a Weapon and I've re-wrote Jade's abilities to explain how he functions; it's exactly the same as before really but I've now made his strengths and limitations as a Weapon more specific.
