Notes: Confirmed during the Eternal Night Incident, theatrical type
Reference Level: ★★★
A Spell Card with a mysterious power that turns space inside-out. I'm jealous.
If I had an area enclosed in that barrier, my magic's range would also widen.
I indirectly asked Reimu about it, but it was pointless. Apparently, a barrier is a boundary line between things, and having two barriers on top of each other is equivalent to a world with no boundaries. If you can find the gaps in space that are hiding just about everywhere, you'll be able to set up a duplex barrier.
In other words, she's bad at explaining things.

Blowhard Level: ★★★★
A large-scale version of Duplex Barrier. This time I'm trapped in the inside part of the barrier too.
Honestly, the regular Duplex Barrier is stronger and more scary. This is the kind of thing people mean by 'a tactician getting caught up in his own schemes'.

A good exorcism needs to have lasting effects.

Nonhumanoids and evil humanoids take a -4 penalty on their saves and still take half damage even if they suceed.
Unless you unready or use this maneuver again, it keeps repeating itself over the same area at the start of each turn, but dealing one less multiplier of damage.
So for example if you have a weapon that deals 1d6 damage, 18 Wis and 12 ranks in Sense Motive, you would deal 6d6+24 damage, then 5d6+20, then 4d6+16, and so on.
This is a supernatural maneuver.

Killing isn't always the answer. So you lock them into place. For all eternity.
You may initiate this maneuver as a standard action, in which case you perform a basic attack that deals normal damage. If you hit, the enemy must also make a Will save or be trapped into their current location for 1 round for every 6 ranks you have in Sense Motive, unable to leave by any means, even magic such as teleportation.
Affected enemies get a new Will save at the start of their turns to try to break free from this.
You may also initiate this maneuver as a fullround action, in which case you can use it against all adjacent enemies.
Either way, if they're evil humanoids or nonhumanoids, double the duration and they take a cumulative -2 penalty to their saves against this maneuver for every following round it affects them. If they fail three of this saves in a row, they're traped until you die or dismiss the seal.
This is a supernatural maneuver.
Notes: Often seen, movement stress type
Reference Level: ★★
A Spell Card where your movement is restricted by amulets. You're bound in place by the amulets and slowly strangled to death.
The fast charms aren't aiming for you, so it's not as difficult as it looks. Why doesn't she just aim them straight at you?
Bit of a tangent, but the amulets that Reimu uses for evil-sealing are booby-trapped. They look like gift envelopes with "full house" written on them, which makes you want to grab 'em, but there's nothing especially interesting in there. It's just a trap.

As part of this maneuver choose a single target in range of one of your weapons. You perform a basic attack with that weapon against that target and every enemy whitin 10 feet of that target.
Enemies damaged by this must suceed on a Reflex save or be knocked prone.
Evil humanoids and nonhumanoids take extra damage equal to your ranks in Sense Motive and can't move from their positions for 1 round if they fail their saves, even trough magic means. You may extend this duration simply by not moving from your position yourself.
Notes: Often used when angry
Fun-to-Watch Level: ★★★★
A Spell Card in which mysterious powers take away your freedom of movement. Apparently it's for binding demons, but it binds humans just as well.
Once this technique begins, all freedom will be lost until Reimu stops it. But because Reimu can't move too, capturing this spell card is easy. All you gotta do is watch from a distance.
But do I have the self-restraint to stay still and do nothing while Reimu's sitting there like an idiot? That's the biggest problem.

You can initiate this maneuver even if unable to take actions and ignore any effects that prevent you from taking actions while it lasts (unless you're dead).
This is a supernatural maneuver.
Notes: Rare, theatrical type
Reference Level: ★
A desperation Spell Card that Reimu whips out while in an unconscious state. Hardly ever seen.
She never looks at you while the spell card is in effect, so you're limited to retreating.
Her attack is omnidirectional danmaku with no blind spots, just sprayed everywhere at random. She's not looking, so I guess that's bound to happen.
Y'know, I always think this, but I don't see the benefit of not looking your opponent during a battle. Feels like it'd just be a disadvantage, but...
Divine Spirit-Blinking Fantasy SealDream Battle (Stance)

Target: you.
Duration: stance
You encase yourself under a square of invisible force, and anything going trough its surface is instantly disturbed.
While on this stance you're under a permanent Blink effect as the spell, except you're jumping in and out between the borders of planes instead of just the ethereal one, so you don't suffer any miss chances on your own attacks, and your oponents don't gain any special bonus if they're able to hit ethereal creatures.
They however can still reduce their miss chance to 20% if they can see trough invisibility.
Harmful area effects only are deal half as much damage against you as well, even if they can affect the ethereal plane. Numeric penalties are halved as well.
Notes: Long distance marathon
Reference Level: Only Reimu can do it, so it's no good as a reference
Reimu herself only moves in a straight line, but somehow she completely surrounds you. Just as you think she passed behind you, she pops out from in front.
The tengu and Sakuya do something similar, but for the tengu, it's just speed, and for Sakuya, it's just teleportation. Reimu's technique isn't something cheap like that. You probably don't get what I'm talking about, but I don't really get it myself.
Reimu says that "you can't normally see the boundary that this barrier encloses, so it looks like there's countless copies of the enemy." Is it like a small world that loops around on itself? Or maybe it's something like two mirrors facing each other?
Reimu has lots of Spell Cards like this. They don't aim directly at you, so it's like being made fun of.

If your target is an evil humanoid or nonhumanoids, each of your attacks also deals extra damage equal to your ranks in Sense Motive plus your Wis mod.

As part of this maneuver make a basic thrown attack with an improvised weapon, except you don't take any penalty on the attack roll and can re-roll a missed attack and miss chances.
If you hit, it bursts in an explosion of spiritual energy that results in an area dispel magic centered on the square where the weapon hit, with CL=ranks in Sense motive, and all those inside take damage equal to the improvised weapon damage. You may choose for this damage to be nonlethal.
Any evil humanoids and nonhumanoids also take damage equal to a Sense Motive check from you unless they suceed on a Will save.
The actual first target of the attack takes triple that damage instead if they're an evil humanoid or nonhumanoid, or half that if they suceed on their Will save.
Notes: Mainly used as a trick at parties
Size: ★★★★★
A Spell Card where she throws a giant yin-yang orb that was tucked away who-the-heck-knows-where. Unusually heavy lifting for Reimu.
Getting hit by the yin-yang orb hurts. Like, physically. 'Cause it's a plain old, hard, heavy ball.
The orb she uses in this spell card is particularly hot and heavy, but a human who gets hit with it won't get squashed flat or anything.

Detach yourself from reality
When you enter this stance you summon a series of ying-yang orbs that float around you. While the stance lasts, you gain a flight speed with perfect maneuverability equal to 5 feet x your Wis mod, all of your melee and thrown attacks become touch attacks, you benefit from a Freedom of Movement effect, automatically remove one ill condition from yourself with a duration other than permanent at the start of your turn, and 1/round as free action you can perform a plane shift or dimension door effect as the spell with CL=ranks in Sense Motive with only you as the target.
At the end of each turn you remain on this stance, you lose 1d4 charisma points. This loss cannot be prevented or reduced by any means. This cannot reduce your Cha below 1, but once it reaches 1, you automatically exit this stance.
Once you've exited it, you can't enter it again until you've rested for 5 minutes and drank a cup of hot tea, which also restores the lost charisma.
This is a supernatural stance.
Notes: Rare, theatrical type
36th Stratagem Level: ★★★★★★★
Reimu becomes completely impossible to touch. She enters a visible "invisible man" state.
It's her ultimate secret technique, apparently, but it looks like she just closes her eyes while the danmaku fires itself towards the enemy automatically.
By the way, this wasn't even a Spell Card at first, but I gameified it by giving it a proper Spell Card name. Otherwise, there'd be no way to win.
This is the one single Spell Card that can only be used via the innate ability Reimu was born with."
