Expert Fire Magician
All his life Ryōko has been taught to cast spells. His parents taught him that he should use his spirit energy only to cast spells to help aid him in battle, and they should too become something he uses in his everyday life. He trained under the direct tutelage of his father, one could ask for a better trainer nor mentor. Spellcraft was first nature to the boy, it ran through his family for generations. Most Magicians take pride in learning elemental based magic, but it is seen for those exceptions to master various other arts. Ryōko's expertise lies in his ability to utilize, whipping up spells that compensate him on the defensive and offensive side.

Fire is one of the five basic elements that plague Soul Society. Ryōko is able to create, shape and manipulate fire to his liking. The process of creating fire is simple indeed. By heating his spiritual energy to extreme levels as it leaves his body and enters the world it takes on the form of flames. With simply exerting his fire essence the young Magician can shoot fireballs, or make fire-based constructs to help aid him. Additionally he is able to transmute fire by transforming matter and objects into fire with little to no effort. Ryōko achieved a level where he can even transform his body into fire, where in this state Ryōko becomes virtually intangible. Even while not in this state, making direct contact with his is a risk of its own. Ryōko's entire body possesses the ability of inflammation where he can inflict burning pain onto those he touches.
