Sacred Arts

All Akura Paths, to current knowledge, are of the shadow aspect. However, they can have others as well.

The head family is distinguished by their Path of Seven Pages. Branch families follow other shadow Paths.

The Akura bloodline ability is madra that enables expanding purple crystal armor, with amethyst crystallized eyes , which is related to eye color trait — all of Malice's blood descendants have purple eyes.

Relations and Territory

The Akura have relationships with many other factions all over the world, being a Monarch faction. They are widely respected and are not opposed lightly.

Their territory stretches to half the Ashwind continent, and is partially controlled by their vassals, including Emperor Naru Huan of the Blackflame Empire and King Dakata of the Seishen Kingdom

They share the continent with Seshethkunaaz, Monarch of Dragons. They are 'vigilant' against the non-human factions, as those are not places human civilisation can flourish, and believe it would be a 'loss to humanity as a whole' if they were to lose territory.

Vassals

The Akura clan has several vassals that we know of by name. The Frozen Blade School is run by Min Shuei, a sword Sage. Little is known about the Temple of Rising Earth. The relatively small and weak Blackflame Empire plays a key role in the series. The neighboring Seishen Kingdom also features in some books. Also, the Wintersteel mining community known as Sky’s Edge is theirs. Akura also controls Sacred Valley but only from a distance, and mainly by prohibitions keeping everyone out of the Labyrinth. There are probably more vassals.
