(Selected Forms, Strength Discipline)
Third Form — Indestructible
A defensive and offensive mastery that allows the user to harden their body into an impenetrable state. By tightening muscle fibers and aligning skeletal tension through controlled breath, the body becomes resistant to nearly any physical force. The practitioner can also focus this hardening into specific areas—an arm to block a blade, legs to anchor against shockwaves, or fists to strike like steel. When fully engaged, the user becomes a living fortress: immovable, unbreakable, and devastating in close combat.
Using this Form as a shield against the Vexari weapon proved useless when a friend of Thomas died during the invasion from an alien attack. It only works when used to attack.
Seventh Form — Safe Point
A pinnacle of precision and control. The user compresses all explosive force into a single point and releases it in one decisive strike. The condensed energy can shatter defenses that would otherwise absorb impact, even breaching armor. Depending on the level of power channeled, Safe Point may also generate localized shockwaves. It is not a technique of repetition, but of finality—an end move, delivered flawlessly in an instant.
Eighth Form — Limit Breaker
A dangerous evolution of the Seventh Form. The user temporarily amplifies their muscle mass beyond natural limits, forcing the body into overdrive. This expansion is then condensed into a singular explosive strike, creating a blow of catastrophic force. Limit Breaker can also be combined with Safe Point, condensing the amplified power into a precise, powerful shattering attack. However, the backlash is extreme: once executed, the body collapses into exhaustion, muscles becoming unresponsive, and recovery time is long. This form is a last resort—used only when nothing else will suffice. Thomas had never resorted to using this technique.
Thirteenth Form — Full Counter
The embodiment of perfect timing and controlled defiance. When struck, the user redirects the incoming force rather than resisting it. The energy of the attack—kinetic, explosive, or blunt—is absorbed and instantly converted into counterforce. With precise movement, the practitioner can unleash that stolen energy back against the attacker, magnified by their own strength and technique. Full Counter turns vulnerability into opportunity, transforming defense into a lethal riposte.
Also, like the Third Form, this technique is useless against the Vexari since receiving an attack from their weapon is completely fatal.
