Kenmei Kōsaku

This article, Kenmei Kōsaku, is the property of Another Poetic Spartan

Kenmei Kōsaku (賢明工作, literally meaning Wise Work) was the technique/ability used by the Tenjin, Tenshi, and Kenmeiotome to cast a variety of powerful magic spells. Unlike Kidō there are no direct category for any spell. According to the Kenmei Kōsaku Grandmaster and various other Masters, the spells and abilities can range from combat, binding, barriers, seals, healing, creation, changing, summoning, generation and control of the elements, temporal/spatial, and control or affect the occurrence of phenomena.

Kenmei Kōsaku Mechanics

Unlike Kidō, these spell are not placed on scales, however they often compared to the levels of Kidō in terms of difficulty and power. To use Kenmei Kōsaku, the caster must recite a short or long incantation for the spells, often taking several seconds to complete.

This limit can be broken by using Eishōhaijo (詠唱はいじょ Incantation Removal) a technique that removes the need to say the incantation for a spell. This technique allows the caster the ability to remove the incantation to release the spell. However, unlike Kidō, using this skill does not necessarily weaken the overall strength of the spells as long as the caster has considerable power and mastery.

Another method of circumventing the necessity, of uttering an incantation for Kenmei Kōsaku is called Koushutsu Toiu Eishō (こうしゅつ,という,詠唱 Later Thus said Incantation). This technique allows a user to speak the incantation to strengthen an already casted or casting spell.

Fukusū Eishō (ふくすう,詠唱 Multiple Incantation) is another techinque which involves mixing the incantations of two or more Kidō spells together to save time and confuse ones' opponent. A rarer use of Kenmei Kōsaku is mixing various spells for unique effects, which is the mark of a skilled user.

Kenmei Kōsaku Comact

Although powerful in their own right, Kenmei Kōsaku does have many notable limitations. One such limitation is that this skill can only be utilized by beings who use or are entirely composed of Wisdom. Along with that, the power of the spell is based user's Wisdom capacity. The stronger they are, the stronger the spell and vice versa. Another limit is the long incantations, which are sometimes far longer than Kidō's. Another known danger is that while casting, the user is more susceptible to attacks. And in order to be able to use Kenmei Kōsaku, the user in question must have manifested an incomplete or complete version of Wisdom while beings entirely composed of Wisdom, like the Kenmeiotome and the Tenshi, do not have to.

Kenmei Kōsaku Types

There are three main types but each can fill in a wide spectrum.

• Destructive: Used mainly for combat and offensive purposes. They can either harm, damage, or destroy a being or object. Normally these spells range from energy or elemental based attributes.
• Binding: A broad category where the object of the caster is to disable their target in many ways along with defensible skills. These spells mainly revolve energy or elements to bind, stop, or seal an enemy while at the same time facilitating defense.
• Healing: The caster uses a spell to heal, cure, restore or help a being or object. Normally energy or special enhanced elements are used for these spells.

Spell Listing

These spells are not necessarily learned; Wisdom will give them an innate knowledge of the skill. It is up to the user to determine the actual incantation, which was often dictated to them by the Divine Energy itself. As such, these spells can be learned by any Wisdom user.

General Wisdom Spells
Seisei No Yami (精製の闇, Darkness of Purification)	Creates several ghastly yet mysterious beings of darkness meant to destroy evil and cannot be killed by normal means such as a Shinigami's Zanpakutō due to being unnatural, only other Kenmei Kōsaku. This is not a summoning spell. The destructive force of this spell can equal to a high levelled Kidō spell depending on the user. Incantation: Hidden soundless footsteps. None moving arrogant thoughts. Remove and purge. The goddess of redempation, cleans the world. Drown in your own corruption, be thee evil. In union or separate purify. Release the divine darkness and save the world.
Sekai No Musaboru Hito (世界の貪る人, Devourer of Worlds)	Generates a torrent of wisdom energy in the form of fiery black smoke. When fired, it will envelop everything in its path, literally devouring what is inside. Created by Kiyoko Takara. Incantation: Worlds slumber peacefully, unknown what is about to occur. An unstoppable force appears. Unwavering in its goals, it will come. Release the devouring spirit.
Doragon'u~Ebu (ドラゴンウェーブ, Dragon Waves)	By holding their palm(s) up, the user gathers moisture in the air until a ball of liquid is formed. As soon as they utter the word Freeze (フリーズ, Furīzu), large amounts of ice spews from the orb until it eventually surrounds the caster. The ice can be manipulated for many uses, including a semi-sentient Chinese Dragon with an infinite reach. Its capable of firing various weapons composed of ice, including a surge of energy that instantly freezes anything caught in its path. Incantation: I call upon thee, moisture in the air. Come to my side and be my aide. Bring life and creation to the world as you have always did. Form in my hand. Lend me your strength. Let the waves erupt.
Bodi Wa Hīru (ボディはヒール, Body Heal)	Placing their hand on the wounded, the body is illuminated to show an intricate diagram of the body, showcasing their wound. As their hand starts to glow a bright blue, the tissue instinctively reacts to the caster's wisdom energy, taking the energy and converting it to their own, rebuilding the damaged tissues over time. The more energy displaced, the faster the body will heal. Incantation: Awaken from the forced slumber o body of the wounded. Drink in the spiritual power and bask in its awe inspiring glory. Rebuild what is lost.
Howaitogēto (ホワイトゲート, White Gate)	Opens the dimensional fabric of the world, revealing a tear of swirling white energy. This allows the wielder the ability to go to any location in other dimensions the caster remembers and certain people to move to and from Eden. Incantation: I kneel to the ground. I pray to the sky. The Almighty hears my cries. He comes down and reveals to me, the correct pathway.
Kidōshūsei (軌道修正 Orbital Adjustment)	By placing their hands in a prayer position, the caster starts chanting the incantation, at which the user's own Wisdom will begin to form into several orbs of energy surrounding the user in a helix pattern. These orbs will be a colour dependent on the user themselves. Once the incantation has been completed, the orbs will now be solidified, and will have an almost hollow interior, although this is due to the transparent colour that's inside the orbs. These orbs are very strong, and can literally protect themselves from all but the strongest attacks. They can grow and shrink on the user's command, but have no offensive properties. Incantation: A wish that is asked for. Hands clasped in prayer. Mind present in the abode of thy. Manifested desires with thy power. Spheres of power under command. Thy power protects one's pure desires. And crushes another's cruelty!
Hakusai (舶載 Ocean Transportation)	A basic spell that can be utilised by most Wisdom Users with ease. By placing their hands onto their chest, a pond of water surrounds the user, which then splashes up, covering them in an aura of water. This water, because it is made by Wisdom, causes the user to turn into water droplets, which then swim inside the water or in the air as miniature water particles and allow the user to transport themselves somewhere else. There is very little risk to this technique, due to very few being able to interrupt with the water molecules and destroy them completely. Incantation: A message there is to carry. Of dire importance, I must travel afar. Oh King of thy seas. Permit access to your abode. To reach the one word, that will save all.
Hochūami (捕虫網 Butterfly Valve)	Another easy spell to learn. It can be channelled through any surface, including the air. By focusing their Wisdom into little butterfly like forms, they are able to speak through these butterflies as projections. This is a common method of communication between Wisdom users. Incantation: To speak face-to-face, one has no time. Allow thy message, to be heard with this single chime!
Gaisenmon (凱旋門 Arc of Triumph)	A spell of moderate difficulty to learn due to the large amount of Wisdom that is needed to cast it. The caster, standing in a stationary position, begins to chant the incantation. At which Wisdom begans to solidify surrounding the user in a circular pattern, similar to a magic circle, which has several different rows of kanji. Then, beginning to form a spherical barrier formed of several circular rune shapes, which form a condensed sphere of Wisdom energy, the defensive power of which is extremely high. Finishing off this tower of sorts, is two different magical circles and finally, a star-like shape at the top of the design. this star is the central point of this tower, which absorbs the Wisdom energy from around the immediate surroundings, forming a transparent barrier of several layers. This barrier has an extremely potent defense, which is able to repel most, if not all attacks effortlessly, especially Wisdom based attacks, due to the central core absorbing surrounding Wisdom. However, this tower costs a truly large amount of Wisdom to stabilise and keep active, thus draining the user. Incantation: To reach the heavens is our aim. With this pathway, the heavens and earth become one and the same. The walls that encompass the castle. The planets that grow life. The staircase on which we walk. And the sun our lives revolve around! A formation that cannot be penetrated. Created by the very heavens themself, let all who climb, fall in despair!
Sozō (塑像 Earthen Image)	A spell in which, while the user chants the incantation, Wisdom is channelled through the user's body down into their feet. This creates three magical sigils below the knees, which are a fiery red in colour, and seemingly illuminates the user's hand as well. The wisdom is then imbued into the earth, allowing the user complete manipulation over it for a period of time. Through hand motions, the user is able to create walls of earth, and even through careful manoeuvring, can create even an earthen dragon. However, there is a significant drain of energy when doing this for prolonged periods of time. Incantation: As the pits of Tartarus we stand upon split apart. An endless pit of despair and misery releases into the air. I ask for the power to dominate this barren earth. To purify and cleanse the rotten sins of old. I wish to replace buried souls with the roar of the earth!
Ryōkoku (両極 North and South Poles)	To utilise this spell, the user must place both arms in opposite directions. As the user focuses their Wisdom into magical circles on both palms, a large sphere of wind surrounds the user for a moment, before it disperses. These two magical circles have an effect similar to a magnet's poles, and attract any attack towards themselves, be it physical or spiritual. The user is then able to make the magic circles move across in a circular pattern to the opposite palm, repulsing the previously attracted target due to the way magnetic poles work. Incantation: A foe eludes, bring one closer. A foe threatens, send thy apart. Power thy has given to one, rise as my shields. Continue this cycle eternally!
Koumajutsu (降魔術 Demon Invocation)	A spell which allows the caster to summon any form of spiritual being that they have made a contract with. Whether this be an animal from Eden or a being from another realm. However, beings such as shinigami and arrancar are exempt from this, and only animal-like beings such as wolves and demons are able to called upon in battle. By placing their hands in a prayer form, the user is able to summon these beings with an incantation. A contract is made by defeating the being using a Wisdom based technique and sealing them with a certain Wisdom seal which forms a tattoo on their head. Incantation: Comrades we have become. An eternal companion I have won. Release your stride upon this land. And lend me, thy helping hand!

Limited Spell Listing

There exists a category of spells that must require prior hand knowledge and education in these arts. However, most of the limited spells were invented by certain people or were seemingly exclusive to the Wisdom-based species, the Kenmeiotome and the Tenshi. The Limited Spells must be learned from them, if they were willing to reveal their secrets. These spells are normally limited to a certain species or person(s). These spells cannot be learned by all Wisdom users.

Limited Kenmei Kōsaku Spells
Jikan No Keika (時間の経過, Passage of Time)	Taking years to effectively control and master, the caster must raise their hands or an instrument towards their target. Streams of light will appear around the target, eventually forming a barrier. The caster is then able to control the passage of time in that specific area which includes slowing, reversing, and accelerating. The creator, Kiyoko Takara, has mainly used the spell in peaceful applications but can be used for more sinister aspects such as aging a target into dust. Incantation: Let the passage of time flow through you. Let it embrace your very being. Slowing. Reversing. Accelerating. These variable aspects of time are less understood by mortal beings. Bring the power and grant us the right.
Tenrai Maebure (てんらいまえぶれ, Thunder Herald)	A dangerous technique only dedicated practitioners can effectively use. It involved the production and direction of multiple bolts of lightening from the caster's very own fingertips through circular movements of the arms while physically separating the positive and negative charges of the electron forces and when they collide once again, the user guides the elemental charge to its intended target. The technique is so dangerous that if could potentially kill the user. Incantation: Destructive force of nature, heed the words of a wielder. Listen to my cry and lend my your strength. Enact Justice. Destroy the Unfaithful. Become a Herald.
Sutā No Pāmu (スターのパーム, Palm of Stars)	Only used by the most masterful of the Kenmei Kōsaku Users, this technique literally creates a miniature sun in the palm of the wielder, where it would go and continue to revolve around the user until used. The miniature sun can be used for many innovative purposes, including being capable of transforming into a sort of barrier for most attacks or use its energy to fire large blasts. If the caster chose to do so, they can fire the entire sun at their target, taking out a large portion of the immediate area. Incantation: Dear universal energies of the Cosmos, gather around my hand and form a bright shining star. Everlasting peace and prosperity, remain under my command. And shine brightly.
Sōdai no Shōheki (そうだいしょうへき, Majestic Enclosing Wall)	Created and developed by two of the most prominent practitioners of Kenmei Kōsaku, Ayane Emiko and Kiyoko Takara, this technique involved the gathering of particles in the air and forming then around the caster while infusing their wisdom energy into it. At their command, the energy will solidify and establish a barrier that has the ability disintegrate, dispel, or absorb anything it comes into contact with. According to Ayane, the barrier is extremely powerful, capable of withstanding the strongest of attacks. The size and range of the barrier can controlled by the caster's thoughts, with Ayane being the most proficient in this technique. Incantation: Particles in the air, come form around me. Envelop this body that I hold dear. Feel the presence that calls upon your aide. At my command solidify and form a wall so majestic, nothing will come to harm.
Tōketsu, Shukkō Sekai (凍結,出航世界 Freeze, Departed World)	Created and perfected by an iunnamed, masterful user of Kenmei Kōsaku. This technique involves a great amount of both; Wisdom Power and a strong link towards ice, via Cryokinesis, making Namida the only practitioner of this technique. By channelling Wisdom throughout your body equally, the user is able to create a blue aura surrounding them which quickly freezes all in the ice's range, starting from the feet. The user then forms six magical circles, three on each side, with an unusual design to them and several protrusions of ice protruding at their back. They then release the icicles. Each icicle holding enough power to freeze entire structures individually. Once this has been completed, they release the magical circles, which hold immense power, freezing the entire area surrounding them till a distance of at the least one kilometre, however the strain of this technique only makes it usable in dangerous situations. Incantation: Recall the power of the ancient ones. A corrupt world encased in the blaze of it's sins. Forgiving and forgetting. Encased in the bloomed snow, it once again withers. Rise of the sins that engulf the world in flames of the sinful, a plead is given to the above. Grant thy judgement upon this world once more. Allow my body to become the medium. The medium of judgement and renewal. Let thy tainted flames, freeze once more, in a world of ice!
Zeijaku Sonzai (脆弱存在 Fragile Existence)	A very powerful and almost forbidden spell that has a destructive consequence if not used correctly. Created by a now deceased Kenmei Kōsaku master. This spell reaches beyond the standard uses of the Wisdom. By focusing Wisdom into the surrounding area, the user creates a clock frame behind them, with a blue flare in the centre. This spell, once the incantation is chanted creates an almost forbidden affect. It allows the user to choose one time by choosing the roman numeral on the clock-face. The user's Wisdom energy then leaves their body, and then allows them to wander in another place in time. However, their body is left a lifeless corpse, and if the body is destroyed, the user's Wisdom energy remains in that time period without any host, eventually their existence completely fading away if not returned to the body in time. Incantation: A search through the world's time I must conduct. Memories and actions, once mine, are now plucked. A vessel of time I have now become. A corpse of mine that lays pure, and never undone. My soul wanders. Meeting once again with lost encounters. Leaping once more . I pray to meet with what lay ashore. My soul rests for one moment. And the other my body awakes. Standing with a new resolve. I begin to not think, but act!
Onmyou (陰陽 Cosmic Dual Forces)	A spell created by an unnamed Kenmei Kōsaku master, who had rigorously studied the concepts of nuclear power before her death, and had extensive knowledge on Nuclear Fission. Just before her death, she had shown this spell to her comrades in hopes that they would use it as well. By using Wisdom to create an artificial "atomic" bomb which is the fusion of two opposite forces, the "sun" and "moon". She then "splits" the Wisdom "atoms" that create this small orb. This creates an absolutely decimating explosion at massive speeds, easily overwhelming any opponent. However, the process of this spell is rather hard to execute, and few masters are able to perform this technique. Incantation: Opposite forces. Align together for one moment, and split the other. As you stand against an enemy that is unrivalled unless working together. Align the bodies, souls and minds. Until all that is possible is a unity unbreakable. As you break this bond, you let go of all regrets as memories of one another remain throughout eternity.
