Cursed Speech (呪じゅ言ごん Jugon?): Yuta has replicated Toge's ability to use cursed speech, a technique usually inherited through the Inumaki Family bloodline. When he first used it, Yuta performed the technique using a megaphone that Rika summoned that had the Snake Eyes and Fangs symbol on it. By speaking through the megaphone, Yuta commanded every single one of Geto's swarm of lower-grade curses to die at once. He noted having difficulty controlling the spread of cursed energy.
Yuta has since become more proficient with cursed speech. While connected to Rika through the ring, Yuta can even make the Snake Eyes and Fangs insignia appear on his mouth as if he was born with it. This allows him to activate the technique by speaking commands in the same manner that Toge does.
Shikigami (式神しきがみ Shikigami?): Yuta can summon shikigami using his hair as an intermediary. The shikigami appear as small bats with heads similar to Rika's. They fly around the opponent to form a sphere, their orbital trajectory constitutes a domain that can slash anyone inside it. Yuta copied this technique from Dhruv Lakdawalla.
Sky Manipulation: Yuta has replicated Takako's ability to "control the sky". He can turn the sky into a tangible surface and use it to manipulate space, similar to how a lens creates distortion.
Thin Ice Breaker (宇守羅彈うすらび Usurabi?): Yuta applies Takako's technique offensively by hitting the surface of the sky, not his opponent directly. He hits the surface layer of the sky and shatters it like thin ice, striking his opponent with that effect.
Technique Extinguishment (術じゅつ式しきの消しょう滅めつ Jutsushiki no Shōmetsu?): Yuta has replicated the Angel's technique that allows her to nullify all jujutsu. He imbued this technique into his domain expansion's barrier as its sure-hit effect when he activated it against Sukuna, forcing the latter to use Hollow Wicker Basket to avoid being stripped from his vessel.
Maximum Output: Jacob's Ladder (出しゅつ力りょく最さい大だい「邪や去こ悔ぶの梯はし子ご」 Shutsuryoku Saidai: Yakobu no Hashigo?): An extension technique that blasts down a pillar of light onto a target, "extinguishing" any cursed technique under the light. Unlike Hana Kurusu, Yuta activates this technique by making a hand sign. By imbuing Technique Extinguishment into his domain's barrier, Yuta's Jacob's Ladder was guaranteed to hit Sukuna, heavily damaging the King of Curses and further weakening the connection between him and Megumi Fushiguro's body
G Warstaff (G戦ジーせん杖じょう Jī Senjō?): Yuta has replicated Charles Bernard's technique that allows him to see a target's future by attaching a manga panel to them and drawing blood from them. Unlike Charles, Yuta does not use a pen-like spear cursed tool to fulfil the conditions for ink, and instead uses his own katana sword. The precognition granted by G Warstaff allowed Yuta to see Sukuna's future movements and land a heavy blow on him.
Shrine (御み厨づ子し Mizushi?): Yuta has replicated Sukuna's technique that allows him to unleash invisible slashes that cut apart enemies. After having Sukuna grab the katana containing this technique, Yuta activated Cleave, threatening to cut the King of Curses apart with his own technique.
Brain Transplant: By having Rika consume Kenjaku's body, Yuta replicated his technique that allows him to swap bodies with another person by transplanting his brain into their body.[98] Using this technique, he was able to take over Satoru Gojo's body and use it to battle Sukuna. This technique also allowed him to access Limitless and Gojo's domain expansion.
Limitless (無む下か限げん Mukagen?): The inherited technique of the Gojo clan that allows the user to bring the concept of "infinity" into reality and manipulate space. Its base state, the Infinity (無む限げん Mugen?) causes anything approaching the user to converge forever, becoming slower the closer it is to the user until it essentially stops. Yuta can utilize this technique after gaining Gojo's body.
Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue (術じゅつ式しき順じゅん転てん「蒼あお」 Jutsushiki Junten・Ao?): By amplifying the Infinity with more cursed energy, the user can infinitely converge space at a chosen location to create a magnetic effect that pulls in the surroundings.[100] Yuta attempted to use this technique against Sukuna, but was interrupted when the King of Curses approached him before he could activate the technique.
Unlimited Void (無む量りょう空くう処しょ Muryōkūsho?): The domain's environment resembles outer space, with a large black hole, distance galaxies, and numerous white patches. Targets trapped within this domain are paralyzed as boundless information is flooded into their minds. Yuta gained access to this domain expansion after taking over Gojo's body and deployed it to clash against Sukuna's Malevolent Shrine.
Yuta has 3 usable techniques (IC or in game acquired) without Rika, the canon backing it up is a side statement by Yuki as seen here.
I will list those once he acquires them somewhere on info or permissions or both and they will have the same nerfs the player imposed on them if it’s non-JJK. The three he has use of will not be ‘there’ on arrival, he will have to ‘copy’ them from a non JJK Character or pull them from Rika if he’s previously used it in the series. I will not use something JJK-verse if someone asks me not to.
Rika can only be summoned to manifest for five minutes in which he will be able to switch up the three curses he’s carrying, or use them in conjunction with others within the limitations of Rika’s manifestation.
This is the only point at which he could use other curses at his disposal that he stores within her. Canon or In Game acquired.
Rika’s manifestation will have a cooldown based on the state of Yuta’s body in reference to debuffs by in-game happenings, energy expended already, situation, mun comfort on both sides, dice rolls, asks not to use, etc will be employed. If he’s happy, healthy and fit then he’ll be able to use her two times a day. If he isn’t, then he’s limited to once. If I’m feeling really evil, not at all. Ye olde ‘y u no work?’.
“Copy” I will let people decide if they’re not a JJKland sorcerer and if it’s canon they can always revoke his privileges by just messaging me and letting me know. This includes revocation that is temporary like ‘huh that’s odd, why didn’t RCT work on x y z injury?’ or ‘Wow it sure is weird that you had my eye laser ability for like three minutes, how’d that happen?’. The answer? Shrug emoji ICly (essentially) and OOCly, because we agreed it wasn’t what helped the thread, wasn’t what the other mun (or myself) wanted for the thread or whatever have you.
Domain Expansion (see below) will be a much more limited range, subject to dice or just again the other player/myself nullifying something about it or completely. I will explain more in that section.
Edited (I saw a typo and I hated it.) Date: 2024-07-11 03:38 pm (UTC)
Yuta Okkotsu’s primary method of using his innate ability involves Rika Orimoto, a powerful cursed spirit turned Shikigami after events in JJK0. This “Shikigami” gift, left behind by the original Rika, grants him immense power and a variety of abilities utilized through his technique, utilizing Rika herself, cursed tools, cursed energy and or all of the above. As the name in the title implies, and to keep it brief, he copies other cursed techniques to store and use as his own. Most prominent is the use of Cursed Speech, an Inumaki Clan exclusive.
In the case of Quirks or other abilities that are or are not based in DNA, I will leave it up to the player if they would like to allow him to use their ability. That way I’m not stepping on toes or like “Goku vs Superman”-ing a situation where it doesn’t need to be. I’m a stern believer that this is a hobby not a chore or a contest, so it’s easier that way. Things that he can already manifest in canon I will consider part of his arsenal, but if a mun (present or incoming) contacts me and asks me not to, then that’s how it goes.
I have an opt-out for Yuta's abilities so it never comes up if you'd like.
Manifestation: Yuta can summon a Shikigami-like version of the original Rika who appears as a monstrous, spectral figure capable of combat on her own or intertwined with Yuta’s attacks. This link is done through the ring that he wears. And while she is still the same old Rika in personality and sometimes in partial manifestation to protect Yuta without him asking, he has greater control over her now. The partial manifestations do not seem to be linked to the ring alone.
She possesses incredible strength and durability, making her a formidable ally in combat. However, here in Duplicity, she will be scaled down and her attacks skewed toward not having the immeasurable world-ending hits that she has. If used, they’re more like normal to high end cursed energy attacks depending on Yuta’s state and will also affect Yuta’s energy pool proportionately. Yuta also comes with a built-in cursed energy fountain, so to speak, that sustains a lot of the things he does and so anything that affects his energy will affect her potency. Or even the timer on her manifestation to less time manifested. Further, he doesn’t just manifest her to reach a high shelf (he’s tall, he can do that himself) funny as that may be one day. Her limit is five minutes in the series and so when he does manifest her, it will be five minutes in-game, too. That gives him less time to attack, to switch his curses, to keep her out, and I’ll impose a ‘cooldown’ in reference to his physical state depending on what that state is each time. Think like glass canon if he’s at his limit/reaches the end of his rope. He can and does use Reverse Cursed Technique (later explained and hereon in RCT) on himself to reverse damage and sometimes replenish himself, but that will also be dependent on his state of body here and how much energy that expends re: his energy affecting her potency in manifestation.
Vast Reserves: Briefly, Yuta has an enormous amount of cursed energy. This allows him to perform high-level techniques without exhausting himself quickly. Having said that, it’s not impossible to tire him out or wear him down, it just takes a lot. Even at a base value. Once more, responsible contact and communication is going to be key here and I will take into consideration the state of his body as well as any game-modifiers he’s going through to put it less crassly.
Cursed Energy Manipulation: Yuta can manipulate his cursed energy with great precision, enhancing his physical attacks or using it to fuel his cursed techniques. This nerf is more of the same, state of his body, game-situations or the situation as a whole. Yuta doesn’t just pull it out to pull it out, pun unintended. He’s more likely to try to use fists with minimal energy and see where that takes him. They’re very likely all trained to only use what they need and Yuta is no different. I’m sure there are some character exceptions, but I mean this specifically in reference to Yuta.
Reverse Cursed Technique
Self-Healing: The infamous RCT I keep typing about. Yuta has demonstrated an advanced healing ability, capable of rapidly recovering from injuries by manipulating cursed energy. While Yuta does have boundless cursed energy, it’s not infinite and even less so here. So while he won’t hesitate to use it, the more he uses it the more it drains him and will again be subject to the state of his own body, in game-situations/debuffs and energy already expended here.
Healing Others: He can also heal others, as shown when he healed Maki, Panda and Toge during combat in JJK0. This also can extend to things like poisoned characters who need poison removed. He has become so proficient at it that he faked Yuji’s death by applying the technique the moment he also stopped Yuji’s heart.
The same nerf applies, but also the ‘huh why didn’t that work?’ is available if a mun does not wish it to be. After all, it’d be my character affecting theirs so I would rather ask either ICly or if I’m really concerned I will contact them OOCly.
Sidenote about RCT: If the person’s body has been damaged down to their very soul, Yuta and all his abilities are useless to heal them. Otherwise, he certainly could heal an arm, a leg, someone’s eye, a condition a mun would like to help rid themselves or their character of. If it’s a large injury or an old injury, for Duplicity at least, I would rather do this over a slower ‘multiple application’ type thing if it isn’t small cuts, bruises or minor breaks of course but it is an option. Everything to the comfort of the mun involved and myself of course as per how I have been saying it in each category, and within the limitations of above/game/debuff/etc.
Black Flash: Black Flash refers to an advanced and highly powerful technique used by skilled sorcerers. It involves an ultra-fast and precise strike that occurs within an incredibly short time frame of one millionth of a second. When a sorcerer successfully performs Black Flash, it results in a massive increase in the power of their attack, delivering an impact that surpasses the limits of normal physical strikes. As you can imagine with Yuta that feels likely as though eighty planets just hit you. So. Nerfed as usual! Limited hit, mun comfort, situation dependent, debuff dependent, energy dependent, dice rolls, whatever else to make sure it’s not just smack and go.
Enhanced Strength: Yuta’s physical strength is significantly enhanced by his cursed energy, allowing him to overpower opponents in hand-to-hand combat.
Enhanced Durability: He can withstand powerful attacks, both physical and cursed, without sustaining significant damage thanks to the energy he imbues through his body to cover it.
Enhanced Speed: Yuta’s speed and reflexes are enhanced, enabling him to dodge attacks and move swiftly in battle.
Swordsmanship: Yuta is proficient in swordsmanship, often using a katana in combat. His cursed energy further amplifies the effectiveness of his sword techniques.
Hand-to-Hand Combat: Yuta is skilled in close-quarters combat, capable of fighting effectively without relying solely on his cursed techniques. He has been trained without the use of cursed energy just as much as he has with it.
Domain Expansion: Yuta’s domain is “Authentic Mutual Love” as seen in Chapter 249. It is considered one of the most powerful domains to have been summoned where it’s ability to use even a copied curse he gets through RNG choosing one of the swords will be a direct and sure hit. I’m limiting it to a smaller sphere of influence which will depend on the situation, his energy, etcetc. If it is used against another player; Contact, dice or pre-decided outcome will be my go to. Domains are a guaranteed hit to the opponent (unless we decide otherwise/I/the other player). These aren’t things to willynilly summon, they’re serious business. The only time I could see him doing it without there being an imminent threat is to continue to train to use it efficiently at its smaller state. I can’t foresee every situation, but I certainly can offer that small frame of reference.
Exceptional Talent: Yuta is considered a prodigy in the Jujutsu world, with the potential to surpass even the most powerful sorcerers. He has more than proven that over the year that he’s been there with them becoming one of the most prolific powerhouses, if not the most prolific, that they have within a society as rich in diverse levels of cursed energy and high rankings of the adult sorcerers around him who have trained intensely for years, not just one.
Adaptability: Yuta’s ability to study and understand new techniques quickly makes him highly adaptable in various combat situations. Even more so if he’s applying Copy to it.
Yuta Okkotsu is a powerhouse. Combining an immense amount of cursed energy with a wide array of techniques and formidable physical abilities. His bond with Rika Orimoto’s “Shikigami” and his capacity to learn and adapt make him one of the most versatile, formidable, dangerous and powerful of Jujutsu Sorcerers.
