Time with Berti (DMV Ability training)

It had been about a week since had attacked the guard base at the city. She had ended up burning up a large part of the city but that was not her goal, or at least it was not till a bit later. She was happy about burning a good amount of the city however it was at a large cost. She had lost her first flame and her right arm along with a finger on the left one. However, she had also gained a rare and powerful magical item from a man known as the contractor. This item was supposed to to grant great power, one that rivals whatever he dungeons grant for the champions of fate. But the power was dormant and was not coming to her naturally. She would have to practice and train with the vessel to be able to unlock its hidden potential.

She would leave her followers and head back to the location she trained at a couple months ago. This was a great place to focus and gather her mental clarity. She would take her cowl and look closely at it studying the intricate metal threads that were women into this shape. It was amazing to believe that this was all made from finely made metal. She could feel the power from the object and smiles as she tries to figure out how to use it. She would continue to observe the metal vessel as part of her training for a day or two.

After this she began to get a good feel and idea for this item. This item used a magic that could create life made of fire and ice. It seemed to focus more on creation than destruction. However in her hands it can achieve great amounts of destruction, she would just have to figure out how.  She would sit down and start trying some mental image training in order to figure out what kind of magic she wanted to use with this item.

The first thing to appear in her mind was a bird. She would grin as she began to gather an idea of what to create. She would stand up and look out in front of her. She would hold her hands straight out in from of her forming them into the shape of a bird. While wearing the cowl she would begin to feed her magoi into it and keeps imagining the bird as right in front of her a small bird made of ice is formed and begins to flap around a bit. She would grin and begin to make more birds one by one. She would continue this for several days till she got to the point where she could summon several of them at once. Eventually she could form a whole sward of icy birds that would form into a giant cyclone. THis was perfect. This would create a wide area of attack and could possibly even restrict movements of enemies. She would continue practicing this over a full week till she felt like she had finally got full control over the spell.

After the crimson crusader had completed her training she would immediately go into working up a 2nd new spell for her dark metal vessel Bertilak. She would sit down and begin to meditate to clear her mind once more. She would focus on what she wanted to do with this next spell and would work on an image based on that. She would spend a day or two just thinking on what she would want her spell to do and how. It was going to be a construct but what kind? Constructs were normally something moving like a golem or a bird with her last spell. However, not all constructs were moving, living things. She could make constructs that were weapons or even parts of living things instead of the whole creature. The first spell was something that attacked in a large area so now she wanted something that would limit or stop movement of multiple people. Next was the how, how did she want to stop or slow movement? That was when the image for her spell finally appeared into her mind, almost as if Bertilak was talking to her despite it just being a powerful item. The image that appeared inside of her mind was that of a hand. She would grin as that was perfect for what she needed! A hand, or group of hands could grab people or creatures in a wide area just long enough for her to attack. If she could also deal damage to those that her hands grasp would be perfect as well.

She would then spend a week working on creating just a single hand. This was a bit simpler than the bird as it contained less parts but was still difficult. Her first couple of hand constructs kept coming out as lumpy masses of ice that just trembled more than fully move. After that she would begin to get an actual hand, albeit one that looks as if it was drawn by a child. Once it had been a full week she had finally done it! It was a pristine hand made of ice, it was a beautiful look to it. After this it was a couple of days till she got a large amount of hands appearing like she had wanted. It would take another week or so till she could cover the icy hands in flames. The hands would melt or the flames would overcome the hands and make them pointless entirely. She would grin as she had finally completed what she had set out to do. Not only would the hands grab those that are in its reach but they would burn them as well. On top of all of that if the hands are destroyed an icy burst will appear to deal slight freezing damage to those nearby as well.

Once she had accomplished this she would get up and stretch feeling that she has a sort of a bond with the cowl known as Bertilak. She would gather up her items and make her way back towards the other flames of the order.
