Invasion

is the power of the Goat's Sin of Lust, Gowther.

Description
Invasion is described as a "long-range type" power that affects the mind and spirit. The Great Holy Knight Dreyfus commented that Invasion may be the most dangerous of all the powers possessed by the Seven Deadly Sins due to this very ability. Given its status as "long-range", it's stated that the user may be vulnerable to close-range attacks.

According to Gowther, Invasion allows him to imprison an opponent in an illusion of their fondest memory. The illusion is triggered by conjuring a magical bow and firing an arrow of light into the target. While entrapped in the illusion, enemies are incapable of conducting any movement; rendering them defenseless to incoming attacks.

As Invasion allows Gowther to see into the mind, he can discern whether someone is lying or telling the truth.

Techniques

 * Gowther fires a small light arrow from the tip of his finger that allows him to invade the thoughts and memories of anyone it hits. The ability also grants him access to subconscious memories.


 * A technique Gowther uses in tandem with the sacred treasure, Herritt. A multitude of light arrows are fired at the targets, seemingly capable of bypassing any natural defenses. Upon contact, Gowther can overwrite the memories of anyone struck by these light arrows. However, this technique's effect is only superficial and the targets will return to normal once they realize the inconsistencies in their memories. Any new memories created while under the effect of this ability will also be erased.


 * With this technique Gowther can induce nightmarish visions by reawakening traumatic memories within an opponent. Once activated it is possible the opponent may never wake from the nightmare. Similar to the base effect of Invasion, the target is left immobile and defenseless while under the effect of this technique. Should the target awaken, they will be both mentally and physically exhausted.


 * Using this technique Gowther can broadcast his thoughts to a large group of people, providing them with information and strategy. Gowther places one hand to his temple, using the other to fire a beam of light carrying his thoughts directly into the minds of his allies. The beam zigzags through each of his allies until the instructions have been relayed to everyone in the area.
