Name: Grimoire of Bonds

Nen Type: Conjuration

Description: The user is capable of summoning people they have made bonds with to their current location from anywhere around the world.

The user conjures a book which contains pages of people they have made some sort of bond with. To add someone to the book the user must form a bond with someone and that person must accept and want to be added to the book. A person is added to the book by placing their hand on an empty page and repeating the following after the user.. "from four corners a bond was formed, from four corners I shall be there for one". The person is then added to the grimoire and a mark is placed on their palm which only appears when being summoned. To summon someone, the user must turn to their page and say aloud whichever word appears atop their page (this word will choose itself and will best describe the nature of their bond). The person being summoned will see the mark appear glowing on their palm and a voice in their head will tell them one word describing why they are being summoned (e.g. help, question, danger, warning). This may also be used as a message instead of a summons if the person is expecting the user to inform then of anything such as an incoming danger or even that they are going to die. The person has 20 seconds to accept or else the summons is canceled (but aura is stilled used). To accept the summons the person must say "I shall be there", and are instantly teleported to the user.

The aura cost of summoning someone depends on the strength of the bond which takes into account factors such as trust, understanding, aswell as reason for making the bond in the first place. This bond is not necessarily one of friendship and can be a relationship between the user and person of any sort. However, summoning someone that is a great friend costs much less aura than summoning someone who has paid you to use your ability to teleport them somewhere (in this case the bond is one that is formed in a deal and thus would end after the person is teleported and the deal was done). You cant summon the pizza delivery guy that is in boston, to china, without it costing hella aura ok lmao. A bond over pizza delivery anywhere in the world is a very weak one. Unless the user reeeeaaaalllly loves pizza I guess idk nen be weird like that.

Bonds can also be categorized into major summons that summon more than one person at once. Note, multiple people can be summoned but summoning people individually costs alot of aura. An example of a major summons would be if you were to form bonds with each of the zodiacs. You can say the word aloud that you have chosen to call this group and each of them will become aware of the summons. However, if everyone in that group being summoned doesnt accept, the ones that do will be summoned individually, costing alot of aura (this is sort of a gamble in some cases).

If the bond is broken by the user no matter the reason, they die. If the person breaks the bond, they lose their hand which the mark is placed on.

Limitations:

1) The user must not break the bond between themself and the person or else the user will die.

2) the grimoire can be closed but must remain on the user at all times or the summoned will be returned to their previous location.

3) If the user doesnt have enough aura to complete a summoning, they risk the bond being broken. This is a 50/50 chance.

4) A bond must be formed in order for someone to be added to the book.

5) bonds formed in the makings of deals with the book MUST be completed or else the bond is considered broken. Granted this type of bond is only if the user makes a deal that if someone does them a favor, they must use the ability for them in return. This bond/deal must be completed within 30 days, afterwhich the bond is considered broken.

6) if the summons isnt accepted in 20 seconds, it is canceled but aura is still used up.
