-Name: Cruel Radiance

-User(s): Tetra (Tetras are small freshwater fishes).

-Type: Conversion

-Purpose: Offensive

-Short description: Turns the Aura into intense hardlight, hot on contact. Can be used to create beams of light, hardlight weapons, or both.

Intensity, and thus power, of both the weapons and the beams proportional to amount of Aura and Light used. The beams first appear as a small, narrow, harmless beam of light. After a delay, it quickly expands into a bursting beam.

-Activation Cue: The weapons make laser-like sounds when moved. The beams make no sound when formed, but make a metal-like screech after the delay. Both the weapons and beams look white with a rainbow-like coloration at the borders, which loses color as the user loses Aura.

-Range: Medium (Light used to create the beams and weapons), Long (max range the beams can achieve).

-General limitations: 1-The weapons do not have a constant Aura cost, but do require Aura to be reformed if they are broken.

2-If more than 60% of the weapon breaks, the rest vanishes.

3-The delay is between 5 and 10 seconds based on the size of the beam, including cubical size (length, height, wide).

-Active ability: Tier One: (and specific limitations, if any)

-Active ability: Tier Two (if applicable, add more as necessary):

-Dust interaction: Fire/Ice/Earth/Lightning: Burns, freezes, petrifies or shocks on contact for the beams. Weapons don't petrify if Earth Dust is used, instead they become more durable.

Wind: Weapons and beams release a gust of wind.

Water: The light is covered in shining water, splashing what the light touches.

Steam: The light releases an ethereal, multi-colored cloud of smoke.

Gravity: Inverts the Semblance, using darkness instead of light. However, using it like this requires using only Aura, and both the weapons and beams made like this are smaller and weaker.

-Notes: 1-The beams have a definitive beginning and end, that looks like a spike. The beginning is at where the user formed the beam, and forms after the user moves away.

2-Tetra, when making the beams, often does so by creating a light bow and shooting it like an arrow. She can create them using only her hands, but she finds it harder to aim that way.

3-In case you think it's powerful, let me tell you: It's supposed to be powerful.
