Yoki or Monster energy is the internal force that gives monsters and spellcaster their power. Much like humans have Ki inside of their bodies or if you prefer chakra. These energies can be molded and formed into techniques of varying complexity and intent based upon what race you have choosen. Yoki is also the life force of your character and as a result if you depelte it completely you will die.
Currently we are having members gauge their monster energy using a looser honor system. This may change in the future to accomadate how the site grows but for now we are trying not to get terribly serious or strict. As a general rule take your rank into consideration. See this as a guideline not set in stone.
There are three things we do with Yoki on this site:
- Youjutsu -
The melding of Yoki into techniques that can be seen in the form of snow people controlling ice or witches using spells. The complexity of these techniques will depend largely upon your character's race. For example, a witch can create highly complex spells given the time and energy but a golem will be much more limited in what they can do with their techniques. - Yoki Conversion -
The act of converting your Yoki into physical ability to increase your speed, strength, durability or even heal wounds. Many races use this naturally and can learn to use it better as time goes on. Some races are geared more towards strength like the vampire and others are geared more towards speed like the werewolf. Your conversions and abilities will be more powerful if you act within the bounds of your race. - Yoki Detection -
All characters can detect Yoki to an extent. It is the life force of any monster, no matter how weak and is felt even in their human form. The higher in rank you are the better you will be able to detect and track other's inner energy. It should be noted that human Ki works in the same manner and doesn't feel much different from monster energy until they fully emerge towards the top of B rank.
Below is a small destruction based scale on what you can expect to see from most Yoki abilities, keep in mind that the more powerful an ability is the more it will drain you. One can't simply go spamming high level abilities and to have an ability that surpasses your rank is quite rare and it will probably leave you drained to the point of exhaustion after one use.
