Unlimited Blade Works

{NAME:}

Unlimited Blade Works: Infinite Creation of Swords

{VERSE:}

Fate/Stay night

{CLASSIFICATION:}

Weapon Creation, limited Telekinesis, Pocket Reality manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation,

{DESCRIPTION:}

It is a high-class Thaumaturgy that embodies their internal worlds and imprints them upon the World as a Bounded Field for a short amount of time. It is their one true specialization of Magecraft, the result of Sword being both their Origin and their Elemental Affinity, and the basis of their Projection and Reinforcement skills. It is the definite answer obtained by someone whose life was saved by a sword, actually merged and lived with a sword, and acted as a sword all of his life. An incantation is used to facilitate the invocation of the Reality Marble. It is close to a "Ten-Count" Aria, using a poem about the caster as the basis.

The Reality Marble's purpose is a steel manufacturing factory that produces the countless famous swords that are without their owners, extending into the horizon. It contains all of the raw materials and sorcery needed for the formation of the weapons, and it records and analyzes all weapons and defensive armaments encountered by the user. The number of unique weapons encountered and recorded by Archer exceeds numerous thousands, most of which are Noble Phantasms each possessing deadly powers. Their entire histories, compositions, and designs are all perfectly recorded, allowing for instant proficiency with the weapons by inheriting all combat skills and techniques utilized by their original owners. This allows for the reproduction of Noble Phantasms, which would generally be impossible for a faker.

They can also be modified to the user's taste with reinforcement as shown by Archer's Caladbolg II and Kanshou and Bakuya. During his lifetime, EMIYA would customize his weapons from their usual states, projecting Noble Phantasms that appears to have been arranged with designs that are easier to use.Close combat weapons such as swords, spears, and halberds are the main focus of the Reality Marble in accordance with Shirou's Origin of "Sword", which also makes it impossible to record or reproduce modern weaponry like guns and other mobile weapons. Shields and defensive armaments can be reproduced with a much greater struggle as the cost in Magical Energy is high, two or three times greater than a sword, and the effects are merely transient compared to the originals. Weapons encountered are immediately analyzed with a single glance, enabling them to be projected immediately afterwards, and once projected, they are stored within the Reality Marble for later use. Shirou is able to instantly recognize dozens of weapons being fired from the Gate of Babylon at an extremely high rate and instantly counter with projections of the same weapons before they can strike.

The analysis of weapons is limited only to the direct use of human senses, meaning that blueprints and materials will be unable to provide the necessary information for a proper analysis. Shared memories, such as dreams shared with a Servant, can allow for weapons to be analyzed and projected, even if they have been lost like Caliburn. The quality of projected weapons will always be degraded by one rank due to humans being unable to fully conceptualize the existence of an object through only one sense, and they will never equal the originals without a technique such as detonating them as Broken Phantasms. The one exception for Shirou is Avalon, which can be projected perfectly due to having been fused with him for many years. Archer of Fate/EXTRA, under the conditions of the Moon Cell, is noted to be able to project objects with no inherent rankability (EX Rank Noble Phantasms) should he have support from the original owner.

Without being deployed, the Reality Marble allows for Projection and Reinforcement in the real world. Weapons are produced within Unlimited Blade Works and then brought into the world, greatly lowering the cost of reproducing them and allowing for numerous weapons to be prepared at once to be projected. Weapons can be summoned directly to the user's hands, or they can be summoned to levitate within the air and fire upon the enemy as arrows much like the Gate of Babylon. Once the Reality Marble is deployed, all of the weapons are available for use without the need to project them from scratch as they are physically there in the Reality Marble, and any weapon can immediately be called to the user's hands, pulled from out of the ground, or levitated even while the user is in direct combat. The weapons reproduced once the Reality Marble is first activated will not consume Magical Energy, but those used or destroyed within it will add to the cost of maintaining the Bounded Field. The amount of Magical Energy used to reproduce weapons that did not exist after the Bounded Field was expanded and the amount of Magical Energy used to recreate weapons destroyed while it is activated is extremely costly.

{HOW IT WORKS:}

Unlimited Blade Works automatically records every weapon the user sees, analyzing their structures and storing them within their inner world. The user can then, whenever they pleases, project them onto the world. Within Unlimited Blade Works, this is virtually effortless and instant.

{POTENCY:}

Extended Melee Range, Infinite as UBW is stated to have infinite swords and to hold infinite sowrds there would need to be infinite space which is what UBW is

{DISCLAIMER:}

The user needs to be able to recite the full incantation for Unlimited Blade Works to bring it into existence as a Reality Marble. Weapons created with Unlimited Blade Works are weaker then the orginal ones. Defensive based weapons like shields take more energy to produce and in general each weapon that is produced by Unlimited Blade Works takes energy to produce, and thats only for regular weapons. High advanced weapons such as Exclaibur take loads of energy to produce and using a weapon of that caliber in the reality marble will forcefully cancel it, as the enrgy needed to maintain the reality marble goes into producing the advanced weapon. Each version of Unlimited Blade Works is unique to the user, and a brand new Unlimited Blade Works will not have all of the weapons that Archer would have, as those weapons are from him analyzing and him copying them.
