Graven Fel
Shane narrowed his eyes as the smoke cleared, his opponent not where he'd expected before he noticed...Oh. That's not good. There was a lot of smoke, coming at him from multiple directions, even as one of his Seele Schneider-types lashed out towards his approaching opponent's torso. He gritted his teeth as he was enveloped by the hot smoke, and after a moment heard something that sent a chill down his spine. Was-Was his opponent pulling a suicide bombing?
The answer, to no one's surprise, was a solid maybe.
The smoke burst into flames, and Shane started cussing profusely in English, Norwegian, Swedish, Italian, and even a bit of Latin before he burst out of the flames and smoke, panting and worse for wear. He'd managed to cover his face with his arm, and pull his scarf over his face to prevent smoke inhalation, but that was about it. He had second-degree burns in quite a few places, and a couple even started into third. Blowing on a spot where his skin had started to melt on his arm, he cursed and thanked every god he could think of that burns typically didn't scar when they were widespread. Coughing a couple of times, he said the first thing he could think of.
"You know, I didn't think that the Shinigami and Al Qaeda were related, but this might be a pattern I don't like..."

- Abilities Used:
- Ability Name: Improved Reishi Blades
Ability Description: Shane is now capable of forming various swords and daggers out of the reishi he collects at a greater rate. One of them may be Zanpakuto-strength, up to three of them may act as a Seele Schneider (up to ten per thread, shared with the original ability), and the rest are as strong as tool steel. There are now a maximum of fifteen blades at any given time, and each of them are able to be controlled using Ransotengai or fired at Bala-level speed from his bow.
Ability Name: Sklaverei
Ability Description: This technique uses the most basic ability to gather Reishi in the most powerful way: by enslaving it. It can literally tear away the components that make up spiritual objects, such as those that make up Hueco Mundo and Soul Society. While active, the user gains x2 to Reishi Absorption (Reiryoku). This ability is much like a Vizard's mask, being active for 8 posts before a 3 post cooldown.
Immense Spiritual Power: After the Letzt Stil is released, the Quincy is engulfed in a tremendous and powerful blue aura, which is actually their Reiatsu being released. Mayuri was shocked at how Uryū's Reiatsu "inflated". Theoretically, the aura can be any color, depending on the character.
Hirenkyaku Augmentation: A practitioner's Hirenkyaku is much faster, allowing Uryū to get a shot on Mayuri with relative ease. Using Hirenkyaku in conjunction with their augmented arrows, a Quincy in Letzt Stil becomes a deadly opponent to all but the most powerful combatants, for they are now at least stronger than a captain.
Ransōtengai: This is a high level technique that allows the user to control their body parts using strings of spirit energy controlled by their brain, forming lines or strings out of countless spiritrons. By using this technique, the user can control their body as one would a puppet, allowing them to move freely despite paralysis, broken limbs, or any other force that would impede normal movement. It was originally created to allow elderly Quincy to fight effectively, and is rare enough that Mayuri had never encountered a Quincy (out of the 2661 that he examined or studied) who could use it before Uryū.
Dislocated joints and broken bones are meaningless against this technique. Mayuri stated it as "the most powerful technique for the Quincy," but he did not know of the Quincy Final Form, which means as far as Mayuri knew it was the strongest.
Blut Arterie: This doubles the power of normal arrows for a Quincy at a reduced fire rate. The fire rate is reduced by half. Be warned, both Bluts have a 7 post duration with a 3 post cooldown. Also note that one or the other can be learned by a single quincy, not both. Also note they cannot be used in fatigue state.
Using every sword possible.
Boosts: x3 All, x5 Reiryoku/Reishi Absorption
