Put together a proposal for a semblance that can artificially increase the mass and density of things.

-Name: TBD, suggestions welcome -User: Aurora Roseus. -Introduction: Temporarily increase density and mass of user and their equipment -Description: By using aura as an energy source, the higgs field is manipulated to artificially increase the mass of the target. The increase of mass without a change in volume also results in an increase to density. -Range: Short -Type: Conjuration (I think? maybe?) -Purpose: Offensive/defensive -Auditive Cue: The sound of a laser engraving steel -Tier 1: The user can double the mass of themselves or any item(s) they are holding for 30 seconds, cost to aura proportional to the base mass of the target -Tier 2:  The user can triple the mass of themselves or an item they are holding for up to one minute, cost to aura proportional to the base mass of the target. -General Limitations: Only solid materials can be increased in density, and sustained contact is required. If Aurora’s aura is depleted while any mass augmentations are active, they immediately end. -Applications: By increasing her own body mass and density, Aurora can withstand blows that would normally knock her back; the enhanced density also makes it harder for her body to be damaged, allowing more efficient absorption of would-be injuries by her aura. Augmenting the mass of her weapons allows the relatively light weapons to be used more effectively; as the axe blades benefit from having extra force behind them when swung. -Notes: Potential semblance, not the one that will necessarily be used.
