X-Key



The x-Key is the informal name for the Kido Formula that opens "Gates" that lead to different Worlds throughout the Universe. It was invented by Weiss Shirame and the 12th Division. The Central 46 ruled that it be erased from existance but Weiss took the information and fled from the Soul Society.

Development
The x-Key's formula was developed by the 12th Division of the Gotei 13, lead by Weiss Shirame. Through the constant study of souls and spiritual energies, it was found that souls of all kind release astral energies that flow parraelel to reiryoku throughtout the world. These energies are produced within everything that is created in the universe.

The formula was created by mapping out the thousands of paths that astral energies take place, which form a shape similar to a heart. This heart is symbolic to the basis of all the worlds in the universe, this was later named the "Kingdom of Souls". By accessing its power through the use of this formula, one can conjure its power in order to form "Gates". These gates lead to the different worlds across the spirtual universe.

Usage
As a Kido Formula, the x-Key must be physically drawn, whether with ink, chalk etc. The lines drawn must be percise and exact, they must represent the flow of souls, astral and spiritual energies respectively. The sepreated pieces of the formula show the effects to a much greater description then the complete formula itself.

First a symbol similar to that of a "Caduceus" is drawn, representing the human aspect of the formula. The base of the energies strands from the Human realm also known as Terra. then about three parralel lines are drawn with several circular lines rotating around them representing the flow of energies. "Terra" is writtin inbetween these lines, meaning the energies stream from the Human Realm. In between the other lines are texts of different languages, which are translated from the other realms in the universe.

Once completed, the forumla must be imbeded with a vast amount of Spiritual energy as a jumpstart. This can be done by the user(s) placing their hands on the formula and transfering their spirtual energy into it. Once completed the design will glow a brght red, casting an aurora that manifests the "Gates". The gates are physical manifestations of the portals between worlds.
