Karma
How It Works
In this world, people can make skills and powers using the energy of their bodies and the environment. People are born with an innate skill for certain types of abilities. Abilities can become stronger with restrictions set on the way they can use their abilities.
Not everyone can create a specific ability using Karma. It's a mark of an especially talented Karma user who can form an ability. Only around 250 Karma users have created an ability.
Abilities are classified into Attacking Abilities, Defensive Abilities, and Specialized Abilities.
​
Attacking Abilities: These types deal with abilities from increasing strength to attack to creating weapons using one's karma.
​
Defensive Abilities: These types deal with abilities from increasing endurance to healing.
​
Specialized Abilities: These are abilities that can be in between or have very specific uses. As such these types of abilities are innately more potent than other types of abilities because they already have limits placed on them.
​
A person's Karma can take on elemental properties as well. After training hard and long enough a person can learn how to add a certain elemental property to their Karma.
Element's Range - Fire, Water, Earth, Lightning, Ice, Wind.
Most people will fall into one of these elements, and a select few get a more universal attribute; That being light and darkness. Elements usually affect a persons personality. For example those who have a lightning attribute tend to be keen and are very capable thinkers. While those who have the wind attribute will tend to be more easy going and non opinionated.
When strong enough restrictions are added to your abilities, a person's Karma strengthens. The comparison would be between a large-yield nuclear weapon of today being detonated on Earth vs a meteor the size of Texas hitting Earth at the speed of light.
