====Artillery Knight====
 
Artillery Knights have a basic repetoire of abilities, further focused by materia.
 
 
 
Black Type
 
:This magic ranges from personal fireballs to lightning strikes, it is offensive magic that focuses on attacking the enemy.
 
::Cost: 6 Materia, or 4 Black Materia
 
 
 
White Type
 
:Curative, defensive and support, White Types focus on supporting their accompanying armies and allies.
 
::Cost: 6 Materia, or 4 Black Materia
 
 
 
Mystic Type
 
:These focus on using their magical abilities to support themselves as classical melee warriors, wading into battle with huge swords or axes that can cleave tanks in half.
 
::Cost: 6 Materia, or 4 Black Materia
 
 
 
====Avatar Knight====
 
All Aspects have an Avatar, the physical manifestation of their crystal. Avatar Knights take this further, focusing it into intricate technomagical equipment, featuring advanced power armour and an array of weaponry, the higher level Aspects equip themselves virtually in battlesuits, wielding incredible forces of destruction.
 
 
 
Infiltrator Type
 
:Focusing their avatar into a advanced technomagic stealth suit, this type are stealthy, nimble and deadly.
 
::Cost: 6 Materia, or 4 Red Materia

Assault Type
 
:A supportive type, these aspects provide sheer firepower, focusing on attacking heavier equipment and vehicles.
 
::Cost: 6 Materia, or 4 Red Materia
 
 
 
 
 
==== Esper Knights ====
 
Masters of material projection, these channelers create magitech servants to fight for them, to support them, or to carry them into battle.Esper Knights’ conjured creatures are build with a series of traits, similar to how Mutants are built. Each Knight creates one summoned being, or eidolon, but they may have several ‘modes’ or Forms it can transform into. More experienced Knights have stronger Eidolons, who in turn have more Forms. Forms are often distinct in capacity, allowing an Eidolon tactical flexibility around a core body of traits.
 
 
 
If an Eidolon is killed, the trauma to the Knight is considerable, but the entity can be resummoned after its conjuror’s energies have replenished. With a tremendous effort of will, a Knight can even ‘resurrect’ their Eidolon mid-battle, though this is extremely dangerous, especially for inexperienced Knights.
 
 
 
:Uses Mutations from the Beast list, as well as some unique traits (possibly)
 
:Can manifest 1 Form at 1st level, increased at increments (TBD)
 
::Cost: 6 materia, or 4 blue materia
 
 
 
==== Monster Knights ====
 
These warriors rely on their protean flesh in combat, manifesting strange and horrifying biotech devices from their materia-saturated flesh. A Monster Knight is built much in the same way as an Esper Knight’s eidolons are built, except that these traits apply to the Knight itself, not some conjured creature.
 
 
 
Unlike Eidolons, Monster Knights manifest individual Mutations in any combination they want, depending on situation. Many are extremely resilient and have natural healing factors (if only because their flesh folds and rearranges itself to seal the wounds), but have a higher risk of mental problems due to their literally constant-shifting worldview. Monster Knights can gain new mutations through absorbing the genetic materials of other creatures, either by absorbing part of them (by whatever means available), or by being exposed to their quality in some way (including being attacked by it).
 
 
 
:Uses Mutations from the Beast list, as well as some unique traits (possibly)
 
:Can manifest individual mutations for energy cost (TBD)
 
::Cost: 6 materia, or 4 green materia
 
 
 
 
 
== Mutations ==
 
 
 
These traits are used for the creation of Beast Units, Eidolons, and Monster Knights. They represent alterations of the flesh through mutations or natural qualities of the species
 
 
 
=== Beasts ===
 
 
 
These are for natural and materia-enhanced traits, and therefore are suitable for all thee types.
 
 
 
==== Fast Movement ====
 
 
 
Your legs are altered, or you’re some kind of cavalry beast (or have the lower body of one). You move a lot faster in tactical movement.
 
 
 
==== Aquatic ====
 
 
 
Swim like a fish! You can move underwater using fins, tentacles, rotors, intakes, or other fun protrusions.
 
 
 
==== Armoured ====
 
 
 
Carapaces, scales, or shells. Protects your vital bits.
 
 
 
==== Regeneration ====
 
 
 
You just grow it back if it gets blown off. Doesn’t really help if you’re incinerated or blown to shapeless bits (the shapeless bits might grow back into bigger shapeless bits)
 
 
 
==== Natural Flight ====
 
 
 
You can Fly! You fly about as fast as a large bird.
 
 
 
==== Materia Flight ====
 
 
 
Requires – Natural Flight <br>
 
Your wings have been enhanced by material exposure, allowing you to fly at unnaturally fast speeds.
 
 
 
==== Vitriolic Blast ====
 
 
 
You can spit some kind of caustic or poisonous chemical at an enemy, tainting their body. In addition, damaging you is a dangerous prospect in melee.
 
 
 
==== Etheric Blast ====
 
 
 
Requires – Vitriolic Blast <br>
 
You have magically-enhanced spit weapons, like elemental breath or some other weirdness. Good against armoured foes and vehicles. You probably explode if you die.
 
 
 
==== Burrowing ====
 
 
 
You can burrow under the ground to hide or to tunnel towards an enemy, ambushing them or damaging supports. This is not just normal digging, but preternatural movement that allows you move underground at unusual speeds. You may either leave a tunnel behind you or collapse excess dirt to seal your path.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
=== Eidolons ===
 
 
 
These are available for Eidolons only.
 
 
 
==== Materia Boosters ====
 
 
 
You channel Mako energy to your locomotive functions, generating increased movement. Enhances whatever other modes of travel an Eidolon has.
 
 
 
==== Extension Bits ====
 
 
 
Your Eidolon can create lesser entities that detach from it, fighting on its behalf. These creatures have offensive power similar to a common infantry, but rely on speed to survive and can be easily destroyed if hit.
 
 
 
==== Familiar Bits ====
 
 
 
Your Eidolon is not quite one creature, but is rather composed of several (or several dozen) pieces linked together all at once. In battle, the Eidolon can split itself apart, attacking from multiple angles. All pieces are part of the same being and are capable of perfect coordination, but are akin to powered armour troops in all other regards.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
=== Monster Knights ===
 
 
 
These are available for Monster Knights only.
 
 
 
==== Infiltrator ====
 
 
 
You are able to reshape yourself to look like anyone else, altering your physical proportions and features to mimick other people.
 
 
 
==== Kaiju ====
 
 
 
You can grow huge in combat, to about the size of a mecha. You're stronger and tougher, but you take more hits - hope you have armour!
 
 
 
==== Mitosis ====
 
 
 
You can create copies of yourself in battle. Only a handful if you're a newbie, 25 around veteran level, or a company's worth if you're an elite. They're pretty expendable, but it takes a lot of you and you lose mako to keep them from dissolving (though there is no 'original', so you can't die unless all the multiples are slain.)

===Airships===
 
 
 
'''Airship'''
 
:Airships are flying vessels, using materia to power a levitation core, they are versatile aerial warships, cargo vessels and command ships depending on configuration. They range from medium size warships, or cargo vessels, to giant lumbering sky fortresses. They were a integral part of the Great war, developed as a means to exploit the artificial floating continent of Gestahl.
 
::Cost: 20 Wealth, 4 Materia<br>
 
::Upkeep: Wealth<br>
 
::Deckage: 50
 
::Cargo Capacity: 500
 
 
 
Airships are highly modular machines, made up of a series of modifications. Airships without modules, are medium sized vessels, with basic weaponry.
 
 
 
====Airship Modules====
 
Each Module adds 10 Deckage to the vessel, due to increased size.
 
 
 
'''Standard Weaponry'''
 
:This modification upgrades the weaponry systems, adding a balanced amount naval cannons, missiles and anti-fighter protection etc.
 
::Cost: 5 per level
 
::Upkeep: 1
 
 
 
'''Aerial Artillery'''
 
:This modification upgrades the weaponry systems, focusing on adding air to ground systems.
 
::Cost: 10 Per Level
 
::Upkeep: 2
 
 
 
'''Armour'''
 
:This represents armour plating, energy shielding, and point-defense systems, used to protect your ship from offensive weapons.
 
::Cost 10 Per Level
 
::Upkeep: 0
 
 
 
'''Engines'''
 
:This represents thrusters, aerodynamics, and repulsion technology, allowing your airships to fly faster and farther.
 
::Is affected by other modules
 
::Cost 10 Per Level
 
::Upkeep: 2
 
 
 
'''Cargo Capacity'''
 
:These increases the cargoholds within the vessel.
 
::Provides 10 Capacity
 
::Cost: 10
 
::Upkeep: 0
 
 
 
 
 
'''Fortress Capability'''
 
:This increases the amount of vehicles and soldiers the airship can transport and deploy. It allows the airship to function as a mobile base, providing facilities for the comfortable housing of associated personnel and equipment, for large assets and can take the inform of internal hangers, airstrips and even wet docks for naval craft.
 
::Provides 10 Capacity in Air, Land or Sea (Must Define)
 
::Cost: 10
 
::Upkeep: 1
 
 
 
=====Modifications=====
 
 
 
These are one time additions to airships or modications of one level of a existing module.
 
 
 
'''Environmental'''
 
:This represents life-support systems and special modifications to allow the ship to function in areas normally unsuited for an airship - namely, amphibious environments or outer space. Higher levels represent greater distances into said environments, or possible the ability to weather another harsh area (like materia-tainted storms or tremendous heat).
 
::Cost: 20
 
::Upkeep: 2
 
 
 
'''Gauss Blaster Cannons'''
 
This converts a level of weaponry(or basic weapons) to ones dominated by Gauss Blaster Cannons.
 
::Cost: 20, 2 Materia
 
::Upkeep: 2
 
 
 
'''Light Blaster Cannons'''
 
This converts a level of weaponry(or basic weapons) to ones dominated by Light Blaster Cannons.
 
::Cost: 10, 2 Materia
 
::Upkeep: 2
 
 
 
'''Rocket Booster System'''
 
:Besides Zhinra's Space Elevator, Rocket Boosters are the only sure-fire way to reach space. This installs Rocket Boosters and thrusters to the airship, allowing it to travel to, in and from space. Fira materia is used in construction to provide the immense thrust required.
 
::Cost: 30, 3 Materia
 
::Upkeep: 3
 
 
 
'''Stealth Matrix System'''
 
:Where did that airship go?
 
::Cost: Total number of modules x 10, 2 Materia
