Name: Haemopyric Curse:

Type: Manipulation (?) (not sure with this one)

Description:

Put simply, this hatsu allows the user to set fire to their opponent’s blood. Specifically, this Hatsu ignites any blood on the exterior of their opponent’s body i.e. their skin or clothing. This ability is triggered when the user uses a fingernail or bladed article to carve the Kanji Ideogram for ‘Fire’ 火 onto a part of their body that is within 12 inches of the injury which caused the blood that is being ignited.

The user must also clench one of their hands into a fist and keep that hand in a fist until the fires are extinguished, if the hand is unclenched, the flames will disappear.

The flames created by this Hatsu last 30 seconds before the blood evaporates and the user must wait for the target to bleed further. The aforementioned flames cannot be extinguished by any liquids or items not made of Nen. However, the fires can be extinguished by items or liquids created by/from Nen. The flames can also be smothered by substances such as Hisoka’s Bungee Gum.

Limitations:

1: The user must be within 20 feet (around 6 metres) of the target to activate this Hatsu.

2: The target must remain within 50 feet (around 15 metres) of the user, otherwise the flames will immediately be extinguished.

3: the blood must stem from an injury caused by the user of this Hatsu.

4: The fire will only burn those parts of the body or materials touched by the blood, it will not spread to other parts of the body unless two injuries caused by this hatsu’s user are close enough for the blood to spread without touching clean skin or material.

5: Only the blood on the exterior of the body will be ignited, the fire cannot spread inside the body.

6: If the target shares the user’s blood type, then the flames can only last for a maximum of 15 seconds.
