List of Kidou:
Each spell is graded on a scale from 1 to 99, the latter being the most powerful and the most difficult to perform. The scale is a measure of difficulty, as there can be multiple spells which share the same level. To use Kidō, a Shinigami must recite the specific incantation for the spell, which is often long and requires a few seconds to speak.
This weakness can be negated by Shinigami capable of using Eishohaki, a technique that releases Kidō without a spirit chant. While it decreases the time needed to release the Kidō, it drastically weakens the spell. While anyone well versed in Kidō can use this technique, it is most effective when done by a skilled practitioner, otherwise the spell could utterly fail. The most skilled experts are capable of using this technique to amazing effect.
The power of a spell relies on the power of the user, as even a low-level spell can be utterly devastating when utilized by a high-class Shinigami.
Kidō Types
There are three main types of Kidō: binding spells, destruction spells, and healing spells.
Bakudō (Binding spells): are a broad category of defensive spells which block or repel attacks or freezes enemies in place.
Hadō (Destructive spells): refer to offensive spells which harm an enemy or cause damage.
Healing spells: do not have known names, numbers, or incantations to cast, and simply heal the target. As the user holds his hands above the patients wounds, his/her palms glow with green spiritual energy to facilitate healing.
Kidō Combat
Though Kidō is effectively used in combat. It is by nature hard to use for that purpose, therefore it is only practical for those of expert skill to practice it in a battle. As the incantations are fairly long and the spells require concentration, it would be almost impossible to use it as one could get attacked before they finish reciting the incantation or the opponent can likely see it coming if they are familiar with Kidō. Those with practiced skill in Kidō can use various techniques to supplant these downsides, such as Eishohaki or Double Incantation, which involves mixing the incantations of two or more Kidō spells together to save time and confuse ones opponent. A rarer use of Kidō is mixing various spells (such as Bakudō and Hadō together) for unique effects, which is the mark of skilled user. Kidō is commonly seen used in instances of surprise attacks rather then all out assault, being most effect when ones opponent doesn't see it coming.
Kidou Training:
In game if you attempt to learn a new kidou, you must make a thread describing your attempt to learn it. When you attempt to learn a new spell you must be the same rank or higher than the spell you are attempting to learn. When you learn a new spell, you learn the weakest version of it first. Once a Kidou has been learned, one may attempt to advance that spell in power instead of learning another spell. You must PM a moderator of the game asking to do so, and they will most likely approve, then, you will create a thread describing your attempts at strengthening the spell, not all that different then the thread needed to learn a new power. Once the higher form of the power is learned, the Mod will pm you with the details of the new level of power the spell has reached. Some people will learn how to use higher forms of spell differently then others.
