| How every piece connected was solid in her mind. She knew her golems better than she knew her own body. Admittedly, given her age, she didn’t really know her body that well. She hummed quietly as her pencil scratched against the paper. She connected a few pieces of metal together on paper, looking at how everything would match up and she realised that something wasn’t working. With a huff she summoned one of her golems and stared at it. She knew what would happen if she fused the two cores into it… It’d get smaller… But why? The Golems seemed to follow a set pattern that didn’t seem to want to be altered. She’d tried fusing the cores differently or attempting to get inside of them but it was too difficult, there was something weird with them. They reacted better to chakra and blood than they did to physical prodding and probing. “What makes you so special…” She muttered quietly as she walked around the Golem, poking and prodding at it for a few moments. This one wasn’t a techno golem, they were slightly more difficult to make and she had mainly been practicing with old dead cores to create elementless versions that were pretty weak. All of them defaulted to a more humanoid version though rather than the wide shoulders metal hulks that she was used to. Was it a design imprint that was locked in the head of every Rikigaku or was it subconscious due to seeing how they were ‘supposed’ to look from other members of her clan and she was just following along. She knew she could force the Golem to change if she wanted it to but did that mean she could do more? An idea suddenly flared to life in her head. She wouldn’t be able to put it into practice yet but she sat down and her pencil went wild as she started to sketch down a blueprint. It flowed easily from her mind to the paper along with… Something else. She was sure she was missing something but she couldn’t put her finger on it. Something had changed since she had finished that training with her team but it didn’t bother her all that much. She finished up the blueprint and lifted it off the table, looking at it for a few moments. She then placed it away within her digital compartment and focused for a moment, the cores within fused together but she placed the blueprint over them, using the mental map as more of an anchor. Sure enough, the cores fused but there was something different. The result was bulkier this time, it seemed heavier, angrier and she smirked. She didn’t have time to test it properly or check it for faults but she knew that she had altered the base blueprint for the Golem which was what truly interested her. She wasn’t sure if it would result in changes to the Golem’s abilities as well but she’d need to leave that for later. She put away her sketchbook and pencils and then placed her Golem back in storage before throwing on a jacket and heading outside. She didn’t need to say anything to her parents, they already knew she’d be able to handle herself out there. She moved quickly to the training grounds, feeling her body moving easier as she tested its limits, it would seem that being mostly mechanical had a lot of benefits although the main thing she wanted to test was her strength today. She reached the training area and immediately moved over to the large dummies that were set up. She bounced on her toes for a few moments, stretching her arms out before she snapped her fist forward. It met wood with a horrific splintering crack and the dummy cracked down its front. She hummed quietly at the strike and then paused, she could feel her muscles almost hissing and straining as they tried to recover from the strike that she had just performed but she knew that she could actually push herself harder and use variant muscle groups to get around that. She cocked her arm back and flipped the switch in her head that told her muscles to hold back normally. The muscles in her arm shifted slightly, metal cords squealing near silently as they rolled over one another. The effect was profoundly disturbing but Seiko hardly cared. Her hand launched forward with a burst of wind and slammed straight through the dummy. It rocked back and came back, causing her to raise her arm to deflect the force of the wooden dummy. It slammed into her arm and then her body reacted almost on its own, unleashing a burst of kinetic energy against the dummy, sending it rocking back once more. A smile lit up Seiko’s face and a dangerous glint entered her eyes. That was something knew, her body was learning on its own. Dangerous. - Training Details:

| The world was blurry around her as she pulled up a piece of her shirt in order to clean off the lenses of her glasses. Before her there was a strange mass of blue-grey that wasn't moving, she knew exactly what it was however. She put her glasses back on and the world came into focus. Seiko's Golem sat before her, kneeling on the ground with one fist against the earth. She hummed quietly as she stepped forwards and pulled her sleeves up. This one had been malfunctioning recently and she leaned around to its neck to check its serial code; F-03. She hummed quietly in irritation, the entire F line was being annoying, she'd need to start over and upgrade. She reached into the guts of the golem and started to check various components and wires, muttering softly about what went where. It would seem that when she was crafting this set of frames, she had accidentally made one of the wire connections to the left anterior gyro loose, meaning that it was difficult for the Golem to move back and to the left, its leg would jitter and twitch when it tried it. She wiggled her body to get into a deeper part and, with her tongue sticking out due to the focus, reconnected the wires and soldered them closed with a spark of lightning from her fingers. It would hold for now but she'd need to completely reset the left side. A quiet huff left her but it was what needed to happen for perfection, the slightest mistake might cost her victory. She wiped her hands clean of oil and dirt and pulled her sleeves down, straightening her shirt and then her glasses. Now what was next on the itinerary? She called up her digital array and digitized the golem, causing it to disappear into flickering blue and purple pixels before she scrolled down her list and landed on the next. "Another F Series? Black hells...." She sighed and summoned the golem, rolling her sleeves up again. - Spoiler:
Words Needed: 300 Words Written: 340
Techs Trained: Name: Rikigaku Art - Golem Path: Core Theory Classification: Fuinjutsu Rank: D-Rank Class: Supplementary/Passive Range: Contact(Extraction)
Description: With only Element Drives and Chassis, Golems are useful but not all that powerful and they are certainly not all that versatile. The Rikigaku have learned how to change this drastically through something known as a Core. A Core is something that is generated from another person or the user, is implanted with a seed of their power and then merged with an Element Drive to impart special effects upon the Golem that the Drive is implanted into. These Cores are split into Core Archetypes and have different prices dependent on the Archetype and what the Core itself does, in addition to taking up a variable amount of slots in the Element Drive. There is also a unique effect with Cores in that each Core merged with an Element Drive gives the powered Golem +1 Tier Level to a tier of its choice, these can be spread among all of its available tiers or focused into a single tier. This is per Core, not per Core Slot however.
Name: Rikigaku Art - Golem Path: Physicka Archetype Classification: Fuinjutsu Rank: C-Rank(Variable Price) Class: Supplementary Range: Contact(Extraction, Merging)
Description: The Physicka Archetype covers cores that specifically modify the body and shell of the Golem, enhancing its basic physical attributes. These cores are split four types within the Physicka Theory; the Form Core, the Reach Core, the Dash Core and the Shell Core. These cores are created from various methods and when created and the price given, a small sphere the size of a large baseball appears in the user's hand. With this done they are then able to place this within an Element Drive and grant the effects of the Core to the Element Drive and thus any Golem that it is implanted within.
Core Types: Form Core - The Form Core is also known as the Size Core, it is created through pinning down or killing a person or creature of a size that one is looking to emulate. Upon doing so, the user places their hand upon the victim and draws forth the Core, a small glowing green metallic sphere. The first upgrade to Humanoid takes up 1 Core Slot and 1 C-Rank of chakra and each size upgrade from there takes a C-Rank of chakra and one half of a Core Slot, rounding up. So 3 full upgrades(Chibi->Humanoid->Medium(S)->Medium(M)) would cost 2 Core Slots and 3 C-Ranks of chakra.
Reach Core - The Reach Core is a rather simple one but potentially quite dangerous. This Core when added to a Golem enables the Golem to extend their physical strikes by a variable range, be it through elemental force or additional wires within the arms of the Golem. Additional reach is decided in 5 foot increments and in a ratio of 2:1 upgrades to Core Slots. Each size category a creature possesses above humanoid allows 5 feet of reach to be taken in core size. (For example, a Medium(L) creature would allow 15 feet of additional reach to be taken due to Medium(S), Medium(M) and Medium(L) for 1 and a half core slots). Each 5 foot range enhancement costs a C-Rank of chakra.
Dash Core - The Dash Core is a modification to the leg systems of a Golem through the power of the Element Drive, enabling a greater rate of movement. This can only be gained by taking it from a person or creature with a specific speed tier. D-Rank gives a 1x multiplier, C-rank gives a 1.5x multiplier up to S-Rank giving a 3x multiplier to movement. Each multiplier costs a C-Rank of chakra to gain and uses up a Core Slot, so a 2x multiplier is 3 Core Slots.
Shell Core - The Shell Core is the most defensive type of Core and is created through touching a creature or person with Defense Tiers. Each rank of defense tiers grants a C-Rank of additional durability that is needed to be overcome before the Golem is destroyed. Every 2 C-Ranks of durability granted takes up 1 Core Slot and every C-Rank of durability granted costs C-Rank chakra. This stacks to a max of a C-Rank of additional durability and thus 3 Core Slots per Core.
*Note, an Element Drive can only have one of a specific type of Core in it. If an Element Drive already has a Reach Core, another Reach Core cannot be added unless the first is removed.
