Richard Buchanan's Abilities
"I look at that boy, and I think of a man who will never stand down."

- Yotsuki commenting on Richard.

Physical Attributes & Ways of Combat
Enhanced Speed and Agility: Across a number of years, Richard has focused solely on his intellectual prowess and swordsmanship; leaving behind a key part of his fighting style, as he'd discover later on. As a young man, Richard's speed and agility weren't exceptional, and thus were normally left out when his key abilities were noted by others. However, due to the rising necessity of it in his strategies, over the years during their admittance into the military, Richard increased his speed levels and augmented his agility quite remarkably. As of now, Richard has shown enough confidence in his speed and agility, that he is capable of effortlessly running through a number of energized bullets with nothing but a sword in his hand and a small shroud of Darkness Magic over his sword, as shown in his battle against Megan Kaiseki. Furthermore, during his small mission with Fraus Lumen member, Francisco Melo, he had shown to utilize his combat skills effectively along with his exceptional agility to knock out a number of guards, and kill the owner of the mansion. It should also be known that some of his strikes have become so fast that they seem like nothing but a blur, and he is admittedly one of the fastest members of SENSHI, according to an overall estimation upon their initiation.

Enhanced Endurance: Though not particularly durable, Richard has shown unbelievable levels of stamina, stemming from his own resolve to persevere through anything and everything. This was demonstrated in his fight against Oliver Ragna. Despite the intense injuries he received prior to, and during the battle, he was capable of eventually drawing upon the last of his magical reserves and killed the man with his friends.

Magical Abilities
It is the penultimate form of magical-physical to have existed in Richard's era. Through teachings from both Jean-Louis Michel and Oros Richards, Richard has been able to combine the use of magical energies and physical attributes to create a devastating fighting style. Upon its default activation, Richard's appearance changes considerably. Firstly, the activation itself causes the level of magical energy Richard exerts to spike up considerably, in tandem with the level of synergy Richard's body has with his magical energy. Furthermore, this causes him to become topless, unless specific magical attire is worn, thus revealing a prominent cavity-like scar on his chest, which appears to expand the more he uses the ability. Finally, his hair becomes a much lighter purple, and appears to be spiked up at the ends.
