Summon Elemental

Sign in to edit


Summon Elemental「精霊召喚サモン・エレメンタル, Samon Erementaru; lit. "Spirit Summoning"」[1][2] is a magical power possessed by Ironside and Chion.

Description[]

This power is a form of "Spirit Arts"「精せい霊れい術じゅつ, Seirei-jutsu」, a user of which is called "Spirit Caster"「精せい霊れい術じゅつ士し, Seirei-jutsushi」.[3]

The caster can conjure elemental Spirits to aid them in battle, which control (and naturally dwell within) the four elements: wind, earth, fire, and water.[4]

Chion has noted that Spirit Arts, in terms of incantations, require the most precise pronunciation within the entire magic system.[5] At least in Chion's case, his four spirits are kept contained within gemstones of varying shape, and he can summon them from within (or force them back into) the stones at will.[6][7][8] Lower-level spirits like Chion's can be scared into retreating back into their vessels (or instead, hopping out of them) if they sense the presence of spirits of higher rank, such as Life Spirits.[9][10]

Life Spirits, the highest-ranking of all spirits,[11] can also be summoned by a user of this power, though at greater cost. Ironside used a Forbidden Spell「禁きん呪じゅ, Kinju」 of the Spirit Arts to transfer a powerful Life Spirit into Percival's deceased body, by sacrificing a large chunk of his own lifespan.[12]

Spirits[]

Chion[]

  • Sylph「風の精霊シルフ, Shirufu; lit. "Spirit of Wind"」: A low-ranking Wind Spirit whose small body is composed of one rapidly swirling twister of wind; it has two arms, a tail, and two glowing eyes hiding underneath its windy exterior.[13] Chion keeps this Spirit contained within a polygonally cut gemstone.[14]
    • Tifos「ティフォス, Tifosu」: This command makes Sylph trap the air around the target's head, blocking their voice[15] and/or hindering their ability to breathe.[16]
    • Severre「セヴェル, Severu」: This command is used to make Sylph relay sounds to the user from a distance.[17]
  • Gnome「土の精霊ノーム, Nōmu; lit. "Spirit of Earth"」: A low-ranking Earth Spirit of small size and humanoid shape, made of earth and bearing a face like a bearded old man's. At the user's command, the Gnome can grab hold a target with large arms formed from the ground, in order to restrain and, if Chion wishes, crush and entomb them.[18][19] The stone containing Gnome is a small cluster of pointy crystals.[20]
    • Ganji-garame「岩がん字じ搦がらめ, Ganji-garame; lit. "Rock Apprehension"」: Gnome hides underground so that it can grab an opponent from below, forcing them to bow down and leaving them open for subsequent assault.[21]

  • Salamander「炎の精霊サラマンダー, Saramandā; lit. "Spirit of Fire"」: A low-ranking Fire Spirit resembling a flame-bodied lizard or diminutive dragon, complete with small wings. The Salamander can breathe fire,[23] and Chion keeps it within a dark, spherical gemstone.[24]
    • Vivaro「ヴィヴァロ, Vivaro」: This command is used to make his Salamander chase down a designated target by following their blood's scent.[25]
      • Shichoso「死し鳥ちょう葬そう, Shichōsō; lit. meaning "Death Bird Funeral"」: Chion has his own Salamander call upon all of its kin that dwell in nearby fire sources (like torches), making them rise up into the sky and fuse into one giant firebird that rushes past and incinerates a target, the resulting explosion resembling a firework.[26]
    • Killabusta「火柱キラバスタ, Kirabasuta; lit. "Flame Pillar"」: The Salamander rushes towards the opponent to carry him away in a flaming torrent.[27]
  • Unnamed Spirit of Water: This low-ranking Water Spirit takes the form of a small girl with a body made of water,[28].[29] It is contained within a small, elongated crystal with sharp points, akin to an icicle.[30]
    • Javoneh「ジャヴォネ, Javone」: This command makes the Water Spirit to surround the opponent's head with a floating blob of water that prevents them from breathing.[31]
  • Gogmagog「ゴグマゴグ, Gogumagogu」: A pair of high-ranking Earth Spirits consisting of two golems, one resembling a rock giant with immense strength and the other a plump creature made of sand that can regenerate from attacks it suffers.[32]
    • Tamunayepa「タムナイェーパ, Tamunayēpa」: The command makes the Gogmagog shield the user with its huge body.[33]
    • Golmacura Yente「追撃の石鎚ゴルマキュラ・イエンテ, Gorumakyura Iente; lit. "Chasing Stone Hammer"」: Rock Gogmagog pursues its target with its giant fists that stretch and bend in an abnormal manner.[34]
    • Salzamt Basso「流砂地獄ザルザムト・バッソ, Zaruzamuto Basso; lit. "Quicksand Hell"」: Sand Gogmagog creates a massive and violent sandstorm that suffocates the target.[35]
    • Darth Ezraol「モズの早贄ダース・エゾラオル, Dāsu Ezoraoru; lit. "Shrike's Sacrifice"」: Gogmagog creates a gigantic, sharp pillar of rock that impales the target.[36]

Combined Techniques[]

  • Combined Technique: Keiken naru Inori「合ごう技ぎ "敬けい虔けんなる祈いのり", Gōgi "Keiken naru Inori"; lit. "Pious Prayer"」: Chion immobilizes the opponent with Gnome's Ganji-garame to allow Isolde to place Time Bombs on the target.[37]

Ironside[]

  • Djinn「風の王ジン, Jin; lit. "King of Wind"」: A high-ranking Wind Spirit under Ironside's control, described as the "Djinn Who Rules Over Sylphs"「風の民シルフを統すべる風の王ジン, Shirufu wo Suberu Jin; lit. "King of Wind Who Rules Over the Wind People"」. It takes the form of a giant humanoid which, like lesser Sylphs, is entirely made of swirling winds, which make up its bulky body, arms, and queue-like braid; its head is seemingly made of more stagnant air, revealing the entity's clear features.[38]
    • "Djinn's Blades"「風の王ジンの刃やいば, Jin no Yaiba; lit. "King of Wind's Blades"」[39]: Ironside projects "energy slashes" in the shape of glowing crosses by pointing his two fingers in front of him. These "slashes" are powerful enough to slice through flesh and pulverize rock with ease. Ironside uses them primarily offensively, such as to counter enemy attacks by "dispersing" them.[40][41][42][43] Ironside can also control the trajectory of the "slashes" with enough precision to pursue the opponent, no matter how fast they dodge. However, despite their apparent effectiveness, these "slashes" are not enough to scratch Ban, due to his already greatly overdeveloped resistance.[44]
      • Belfest Margot「静寂前の凄槍ベルフェスト・マーゴ, Berufesuto Māgo; lit. "Great Spear Before Silence"」: Raising his hands to bring forth the "Djinn's Blades", Ironside spawns a myriad of small, twinkling orbs in the air around his opponents, which then expand into larger stars to cut his opponents to ribbons.[45][46]
    • Falca「浮風ファルカ, Faruka; lit. "Floating Wind"」: Allows Ironside to float in midair, seemingly creating a cushion of wind that he can also use to break a fall.[47]
    • Velkira「ヴェルキラ, Verukira」: This command fully materializes the Djinn around Ironside, the Spirit granting its summoner elemental "protection" by cloaking him in wind.[48]
    • Zirvath Ertango「風の協葬曲ジルバス・エルタンゴ, Jirubasu Erutango; lit. "Funeral Song of the Wind"」: This command makes the Djinn expand its own body to engulf Ironside's immediate surroundings within a spherical wind barrier. This traps a given enemy while serving as a medium for Ironside to unleash subsequent wind attacks inside, like Belfest Margot.[49]
  • Ragna Claw「崩衝ラグナクロウ, Raguna Kurō; lit. "Collapsing Opposition"」: By whirling his hands around, Ironside calls forth what seems like an invisible downforce, strong enough to collapse the ground and open up a massive hole.[50] It is unconfirmed what Spirit's power is drawn on for this technique.

Trivia[]

  • "Elementals" are mythical creatures aligned with the elements of nature. Occult and alchemy texts from around the time of the European Renaissance talk of invisible, partly physical "spirits" that correspond to the four classical elements: air, earth, fire, and water. The 16th-century Swiss alchemist Paracelsus identified four classes of spirits accordingly:
  • A djinn (Arabic: جِنّ‎, jinn), also anglicized as genie, is a type of intelligent spirit in pre-Islamic Arabian and later Islamic mythology, sometimes associated with the wind.
  • It is possible that Ironside's flying row boat[51] is kept afloat through his Wind Spirit's power; the boat's underside is marked by a starlike pattern resembling the Knight's star-shaped slashes.
  • Gogmagog was a legendary giant in Welsh mythology.
    • Although, being seemingly a pair of spirits, it could be also a reference to Gog and Magog.
