Mark of Oni

Name: Mark of Oni
Type: Item - Standard - Armor
Tier: VII [Expertise Item]
Condition: Not Applicable
Coverage: See Avatar of Oni
Description: The supplemental mark of Salem’s mark of Seran. In appearance, the mark of oni surrounds the mark of Seran, as the image of an oni’s head with Seran’s mark in its mouth. Following their confrontation of Salem’s two personalities in Gabriele’s mirror of truth, and Salem’s subsequent victory, Seran bound Oni to his mark, making Salem the dominate personality. But Oni’s ferociousness was still considered useful, and thus the mark allows for Salem to access its power in more controlled doses.

Description: This passive is activated whenever Salem chooses, by smear his blood across the mark of Oni, causing it to absorb the blood and begin emitting reiatsu in the form of red steam. From here Salem begins to transform post by post (often somewhat painfully), becoming more oni-like, including slowly becoming larger. The physical changes here are considered armor, and bankai equivalent in terms of sharpness.
Initial Post - Two small(1”) horns sprout from Salem’s forehead and his teeth become slightly pointed. His eye color slowly changes from green to red and the eyes themselves become bloodshot. Ears become pointed
Post One - Horns have increased in length(2”). Fingernails have become black half inch claws. Teeth sharpen further, canines increase in length. Hair Lengthens.
Post Two - Skin becomes flushed over entire body, Horns increase to three inches. Claws have become retractable and 1 inch long and horn-like spikes coat the knuckles. Shoes can no longer contain feet and toenails have become two inch black claws. Hair Lengthens
Post Three - Horns grow to five inches in length and three new horns sprout from sprout from the outside of each shoulder. Skin has now become bright red. The entire top of the hands, arms from wrist to elbow, feet, and shins become dark red in color and super dense, acting as armor. Hair has become a mane covering the upper back and neck.
Post Four - Horns protrude from the elbows and knees by three inches.
