Monoke

Monoke are spirits that are formed when humanities' emotions congregate and begin to form a body. These emotions are usually similar, turning into a fully grown human with horns depending on the power of the Monoke.

Origin
Monokes date back to the early days of humanity. As they are formed when a group of humans' emotions are strong enough, many can be formed as early as the dawn of humanity.

Powers and Abilities
Spirit Physicality: As a Spirit, Monokes have a unique biological make up. This allows them to not need normal nutrients to live. While most spirits keep an intangible body, a Monoke creates a physical body, based on a Humans.
 * Longevity: Because Monokes do not require normal subsistences to live, they can survive for thousands of years easily. This, coupled with their other abilities, is what many to believe them to be gods.


 * Superhuman Speed: Nearly all Monokes display superhuman speeds. Most range up to being faster than the human eye, often disappearing form a person's vision and reappearing immediately after.


 * Superhuman Strength: Being inhuman creatures, Monoke display feats of strength far beyond that of normal humans. Most human sized Monoke display their strength as massive shockwave-like attacks, where as beast-like ones are able to destroy buildings with ease.

Magic: As a Spirit, Monokes have a connection to magic. However not all Monokes choose to expand this connection, as most rely on their physical strength.
 * Superhuman Durability: A Monoke's body is far more durable than that of a human's. This allows them to survive explosions, blades and gun shots unlike that of humans. However they can still be killed by humans who know how to fight them.
 * Possession: As a Spirit, a Monoke can choose to inhabit and posses a living object, feeding off their life force.
 * Illusion Magic: Monokes are naturally adept in illusion magic. With highly capable Monokes being able to pull a person into a world that they created with their own illusions. Other applications of this magic can be to create a sort of short-wave communication device that works regardless of spiritual influences. These illusions also reflect the user, if the user dies, then it will disappear.

Bestial Transformation: Some Monoke can seal away their power to retain a human/animal form. Doing this allows those tracking them to not see their full power potential. When unleashed, powerful Monoke transform their physical selves into large beasts. However many weaker ones are only able to form horns.
 * Portal Magic: Monokes can created portals where they can travel from one play to another. The exact limitations of these portals are unknown.
 * Barrier Magic: Monokes can create powerful barriers that can cordon off city blocks if the user is adept. These barriers appear to be walls of fog and causes anyone who does not have spiritual dampening devices to simple walk out on the other side of the barrier. These barriers can be dropped if the user wishes it, is unable to concentrate, or is killed.

Power Bestowal: Monoke also have the ability to pass on either portions of their power or then entirety of it. There have been three variants of this ability. One where a Monoke gifted an entire human's lineage with heightened agility and the ability to speak with animals. Another, where a Monoke slowly gifted a human a portion of their power, allowing the human to become a crossbred. And finally, one where a human was gifted all of a Monoke's power.

Weaknesses
Sealing: A Monoke's power can be sealed away, with the most common objects being known as Killing Stones. These Killing Stones utilize the Monoke's natural ability to possess objects by forcing them to possess an inanimate object and then sealing the object away.

Horns: While a Monoke's horns are intimidating and can regrow, breaking one off will reduce the Monoke's powers. This reduction is dependant on the number of horns, for example; if a Monoke with two horns looses one, the power will be reduced by half, if the Monoke instead has three, then it is reduced by a third.

Feeding: A Monoke's power is directly dependent on how often they feed on life energy. The more a Monoke feeds, they stronger they become. Humane Monoke choose to not feed, but if their energy ever connects with a human or other source of life energy, they will instinctively feed.
