Notable Attacks/Techniques:

 

- die Ewigkeit: eternity destruction. Magical formula created by Mercurius to support ascension to godhood. Alchemy that fuses user and Holy Relic to create superhuman. It enables its user to use souls as a weapon and armor.

  • Spiritual attack: through Ewigkeit, entire body of the Apostle turns into murderous weapon. It's useless to block it physically, what it damages is the very essence of the human, soul. Regardless of absence of pain and body status, just by slightest touch it can kill anyone. Thus, even incorporeal spirits can't survive in front of this power.

    • History poison: by exploiting thoughts and emotion that make up Holy Relic, Apostle can use this superimposed history as a deadly poison that damages body and inhibits regeneration.

  • Spiritual armor: Apostles use absorbed souls in the form of powerful, spiritual defense. Natural durability raises in proportion of absorbed souls. At around 300 souls, it's impossible to harm Apostle with anything on Earth, including nukes. Tubal Cain has few times that amount. That's why spiritual attacks is the best way to harm them.

  • Enhanced senses: physical strength is not the only thing that die Ewigkeit can supplement. This applies to senses too. Their vision can now accurately see in a few hundred meters and their hearing can recognize voices even through obstructions.

    • Spiritual vision: along with their enhanced senses, Apostles gain ability to perceive souls. This allows them to measure quality of the soul and see when physical vision is useless. This also let them see what is otherwise invisible (like "flying slashes" from Ren's Assiah).

  • Immortality: because Apostles effectively acquire lifeforce of all beings they have eaten, naturally their lifeforce can't even be compared with normal humans. Diseases, poisons and alcohol is no longer effective. Since soul detoriates with age, sucking souls prevents this impending doom by prolonging time when soul whithers completely. Thus, Apostle can only be killed by destroying Holy Relic and all souls it contains.

    • Regeneration: Apostle can easily rebuild own's body by absorbing souls of others. Injuries such as missing limbs or deep wounds can be healed just by sacrificing souls in the stock. And by exploiting spiritual limits (limit of souls one's can absorb) it's possible to heal from any injury by attacking with entire stock in a one attack, thus healing in proportion (that's entire body).

    • Non-corporeality: even with soul consumed, it still doesn't mean death to an Apostle. Strong souls can keep their ego even while absorbed. Apostle can takeover Holy Relic of another consumer, dominate body and rebuild physical body from nothing. However, because of a strong causal bond between Apostle and Holy Relic it's very hard to accomplish and lost battle means losing own's ego.

  • Information absorption: all information is recorded in the souls, from memories to emotions and personal experience. Apostle can use this knowledge for their own means. However, because of tremondous amount of information, high level computing capability is required and this ability is almost useless in the course of battle, because one's identity would disappear (unless it's someone with a huge ego, such as Reinhard or someone's crazy, such as Schreiber).

 

 

- Wewelsburg Longinus: Kai's Holy Relic, armament type, imitation of Longinuslanze. Refined from hihiirokane, legendary japanese metal available only to Sakurai Clan, this weapon inherits some functions of Longinus and can't be used by anyone other than Sakurai, choosing its own owner. Weapon changes is shape according to quality of the person who wields it. Inside this Relic lives "one that devours dead (Tubal Cain)". Every new wielder will inherit mass and abilities of the previous generations, becoming larger and stronger. Changing user into dead body, it enables to move beyond limits of human body (like freely rotating limbs or fighting without head).

  • Corpse takeover: true nature of this Holy Relic is to make abilities of people slain by Kai (Tubal Cain) into his own power. To scrape away all Holy Relics in the world, scooping tens of thousands people and making it all his own power, becoming stronger with each sacrifice. There's virtually no physical limit to this ability.

 

- Koko da kuno wazawa imeshitehayasasura itamaechi kuranookikura: Kai's Briah, Gudou type, law that emerged from craving "I want to undertake all impurities so people important to me can remain pure". Manifestation of his self-sacrifice, desire to shoulder all sins so that his beloved ones won't have to spill blood. Expression of this wish is the ability to change Kai's own body to mass of poison. From bottom of feet to the latest strand of hair, his entire body changes into sea of poison, with a simple touch he can corrode and decay everything. Bullets and even stakes created by Holy Relic disappear instantly in contact with his body. Culmination of supreme defense and offense in a single body. Moreover, Kai's weapon changes into poison too.
