Cursed Technique: Cursed Energy Transmutation
This technique was born out of an idea to make a more classical wizard in JJK. Enjoy!
Cursed Energy Transmutation is an innate technique that allows the user to change the trait of part or all of their cursed energy. The change is instant, not an ongoing effect and a particular "piece" of CE can only have one trait at a time. If you only transmute part of your CE it must be used quickly or it will be lost.
Disadvantages: This CT doesn't have any direct combat aplication and it doesn't come with an instruction manual. Every possible trait has to be discovered by trial and error and trained individually. Different traits means your CE might not react how you expect when you try to control it, specially when trying a new trait.
Advantages: Sheer versatility. A well trained user of this technique on their prime has a toolbox that few sorcerers can match. A far easier time learning RCT. While not a trait per se, all the time dedicated to manipulate one's own CE required by this CT means far more chances of figuring RCT out.
Binding bow - All In: By transmuting all of their CE to a single trait and giving up the versatility of having several traits simultaneously, the trait strengthens and emergent properties appear. A lightning trait makes you faster, a fire trait burns foreign cursed energy near you, a metal trait makes you tougher, etc.
Cursed Technique Reversal: Allows you to Transmute your positive energy and give it traits. Some traits are only accessible through this. A wood trait makes healing more efficient, a water trait allows you to wash the effects of cursed techniques. Not as impressive as others but still useful.
Domain expansion: No idea, tbh. Allowing the user to transmute other's CE seems like it could be useful if it helps disrupt their flow or empower them. Allowing the CT to give traits to others seems like it's a bit too close to something like Idle Transfiguration though.
Some learnable techniques I've come up with.
Napalm: After using a Sticky trait to leave clumps of cursed energy on the terrain or the opponent, the user transmutes them into Fire cursed energy.
Cold Snap: Using an Air trait to compress as much CE in one spot as possible, the user transmutes it into Cold and allows it to expand violently in one direction, freezing everything in it's path.
Smoke bomb: A similar principle to Cold Snap but using a Smoke trait.
Treacherous Terrain: Using the enhanced strength of an Earth trait, the user cracks the terrain and covers it with Slippery CE.
Feedback is appreciated, especially if you can help me come up with a proper DE or an extension technique. Thank you for reading!
