Abilities and Powers
Buzzutsu
Diego’s cursed technique Sketch allows him to bring anything he draws to life. Diego can essentially create his own shikigami, a powerful tool in combat. To do this Diego utilizes the cursed pen Atramentum to execute his cursed technique. The cursed energy-infused ink stored within Atramentum imbues each drawing with cursed energy that is released when the drawing is summoned. The only limit to this technique is Diego’s own artistic abilities as his ink constructs are only as good as his drawings. An ink construct’s power is determined by the amount of detail, finesse, and ink used in the drawing. Once a drawing is summoned, that drawing disappears from the page.
To ensure he always has drawings ready, Diego keeps with him a sketchbook full of various drawings. He can often be found drawing in this sketchbook, replenishing the constructs he uses up in battle.
Equipment
Atramentum, a Vega clan heirloom, is among the most powerful cursed tools in recorded history. Forged by a member of the Vega clan over 1,000 ago, the Atramentum pen houses the ink-black tears of an ancient curse. Each penstroke is imbued with cursed energy, allowing the final drawing to be summoned in battle.
