We find our hero outside in the cold, a chilly Wednesday-morning, the sky still dark. She’d been thinking about her last session in the gravity chamber, and she hadn’t gotten much sleep the night prior- there was just something thrilling about it. The pressure, the strain, the sudden feeling of improvement as the extra gravity is let off; the whole experience just got her blood pumping. That is why on this particularly cold morning Ohkara is jumping up and down in her cyan-hoodie and matching tight-fitting yoga-pants and of course her heavy training weights, all while breathing into her hands to warm them.
”Damn,” she groaned loudly as a cloud of her breath filled her cupped hands, ”I shoulda brought gloves…”
She’d just completed a warm-up, and now was preparing to summon her gravity chamber; of course, that was just as soon as the feeling returned to her frozen fingers. Luckily things would warm up very soon, especially after beginning her real training. Finally reaching into her pocket she would remove the capsule, click the bottom, and toss it in front of her.
Again, it was the weird noise and cloud of smoke; followed by the reveal of a round plated floor and a center pillar console. Naturally, it looked exactly the same as she remembered, and she was quick to stride to the middle and active the gravity. She could feel the additional pressure building as soon as she hit the confirmation; it wasn’t exactly fast, but it was quick enough to nock someone off their feet if they weren’t prepared. And prepared she was, crouching into a low stance to help balance the extra weight through-out her body. Finally the console would stop humming, and read: “10Gs” on the display.
She’d learned much from her last encounter with the gravity- and with it would excel at her routines. Not to say that this was not a difficult task, quiet to the contrary; indeed, this would be twice as challenging as it was the first time. However this time in just four hours she’s be moving at maximum speed in her ground routines. Then, moving onto her flight routines, it would only take another four to master.
Huffing heavily as she landed she couldn’t help but smile, sweat pouring off her slim body, her cute clothes not-so-cute anymore. But she was pleased. Now it was time for a change of pace. Flicking a sopping wet strand of forest-green hair from her face, she’d pull her umbrella from her belt, ”Heh, let’s give this a shot…” she said.
Being an experienced fencer, she would run through an average fencing warmup. It proved to be difficult at first, but Ohkara was quick to catch on to the tricks she needed to keep things fluid. Finally she would be ready to practice a new move she’d been cooking up. Dropping the serious act, the woman returned to her normal playful self and spun in a circle, holding her umbrella in her left hand.
Building ki in her left hand she’d force it into the yellow accessory; which, needless to say, would be glowing a bright shade of safety-green. Completing her rotation she would flick a finger over the clasp that held the umbrella closed, and toss it high into the air. Spinning in the air it would wait for Ohkara to snap her fingers before springing open and unleashing a shower of hundred small, thin pins of Ki. Smashing into the ground they would linger for a moment, then vanish.
Trying the technique a few more times Ohkara would add a twist, allowing her to control the direction of raining needles with a flick of her wrist, making it possible to even chase someone with this move- even if only for a short period. Indeed it was a rather brutal technique to come up with, but that was the same for her Meteor Barrage; intimidation seemed key in her signatures moves.
Smiling satisfied; Ohkara would expertly catch her umbrella and place it back in her belt. Returning to the console she would deactivate the gravity; it was nearly nightfall already, it seemed her training had taken all day, much as the last session had. As the chamber returned to capsule form she plucked if from the ground and rose into the air, feeling lighter: one thousand two-hundred six pounds lighter, to be exact.
Heading for her home she’d giggle loudly,”Oh man!~ What an awesome day!~”

Weaponize!~
Allows the user to channel ki into a weapon, or item of their choosing, making the target thousands of times stronger. While it does not increase the damage of the weapon, it does allow for the item to shoot ki in the user’s preference (requires tiering. This tech’s tiers can be used with ANY item that has been Weaponized). While this Tech does not require constant energy output, firing ki blasts from the weaponized object requires a bit more Ki than firing from the body.
Weaponize!~
Teired Variant
Piercing Rain
Used with the Weaponized Tech. Mainly, but not explicitly coupled with the umbrella for wider spread. Tossing a Weaponized umbrella into the sky where it will float until called upon (snap, flick, etc…) then spring upon, releasing a shower of Ki-needles from under it. Can be fanned in one direction; fanning it relatively slow.
