The royal Akura clan cycle vital aura from shadowy places into madra for their practice of the sacred arts
Monarch’s Path
Monarch Akura Malice is all about shadows and power and foreseeing the future. Her Path is Eternal Night
Path: Eternal Night. Though she is famous for the creation of the Path of Seven Pages, Malice herself has no Book. She is the practitioner of a pure shadow Path with an emphasis on Forger and Ruler techniques, and she sees her madra as a perfect blend of power and utility. However, her dissatisfaction with her own Path led her to create an idealized version: her Book of Eternal Night. (Wintersteel ch 26)
Akura Goldsign
It seems like all Akura Paths are shadow based, but they vary in other aspects. At least one of them is called the Path of the Chainkeeper. The presumed blood descendant path of the Akura family have a Goldsign that looks like their hands are dipped in tar up to the elbow, which is confirmed 'the Goldsign from the Path of the Chainkeeper'.
Other Paths of Akura family
Shadow based, perhaps with other aspects:
The Path of Seven Pages is followed by the royal family, including Akura Mercy and Akura Charity. It uses seven techniques, each from a separate shadow path. The artist bonds an ancient seven page book covered in complex scripting and possibly containing multiple bindings. Each page represents one technique for each advancement level, starting at Lowgold. A user may call upon a page above their current advancement level for a short period of time. It may be typical to use a bow. They have their soulspace opened early, and have the same Goldsign as mentioned before.
It seems there are multiple sub paths.
Unnamed subpath, with a different Goldsign, namly a black halo. Have been known to use forged black swords. Might be called the Path of the Shadow Blade (unknown) Probably from an Akura branch family. Aspects of shadow and swords.
Bloodline Madra
The Akura bloodline legacy is their unique madra which enables expanding armor of purple crystal on some or all of their body (full body only supposed to be used after Underlord). This causes their eyes to look like solid purple crystal while using the armor.
