Abilities

Ultimate Ability: Variations on a Theme

REQ: Monochrome Palette | Rarity: Exotic | UP: 60 | ZP: 4 | ZL: 0 | Cost: 5 TP
For 1 round, instantly activate another Crimson Composition of equal rarity or lower than the current active one. Afterwards, dispel the effects of one of the Compositions of your choice.

Monochrome Palette

Level 1 | CC: Brushblade | Rarity: Mythic | Cost: 0 TP
Learn how to paint using a new type of ink. Whenever you inflict the Bleed status on an enemy, gain 1 Ink per stack inflicted over the first. Your sword also automatically becomes Inked immediately after inflicting the status.
You also unlock a new resource known as Stroke Count (SC), which starts at 0 after a Long Rest and increases by 1 whenever you execute an Inked skill. Stroke Count is used for the creation of Crimson Compositions, which can drastically alter the shape and effect of the battlefield. Once you create Crimson Composition, reset your SC to 0.

Crimson Compositions consist of weather types of different rarities, ranging from the mundane to the impossible. A few examples are listed as follows:
Basic: Fair skies, Light Sun, Light Rain
Uncommon: Blizzard, Thunderstorm, Heatwave
Rare: Tornado, Earthquake, Ashfall, Locust Swarm, Razorhail
Legendary: Meteor Storm, Ether Surge, Tsunami, Radioactive Fallout
Exotic: Thrymmotic Overload, Unstable Spacetime, Gamma Ray Burst
Mythic: Rift Breach, Realm Collision, Judgment Day
Sanctified: Heat Death, Reality Collapse, Vacuum Decay
Painting most types of weather requires you to have spent a short rest studying the weather event currently taking place– though the knowledge required for the more esoteric types of weather can be discovered in the wild. Once you paint a Crimson Composition, it lasts for 3 rounds.

You may also create a Crimson Composition of a landscape you have visited previously, such as a grassy plain or a glacier. Doing so requires you to spend 1 entire turn painting, and consumes an amount of ink depending on how esoteric the envisioned landscape is. Both weather and landscape types that you have painted before can be saved in your Portfolio, allowing you to use them in future Crimson Compositions.
