A flash of excitement skittered across the surface of Shou's anxiety when Leivinia set up her Barrier Jacket. As nervous as the prospect of combat, even simple practice combat, made him, he was still excited for the opportunity to exercise his powers. "Alright, Caster, let's get do this. Let's say. . . 80% power, bring it down as needed." He nodded to himself, and was wreathed in an orb of a lurid teal color.
The jacket he wore was matched by a set of black pants, boots, and gold-trimmed belt that appeared in a soft flash as soon as he began setting up, the belt appearing as a glowing ring before settling onto a somewhat more natural tone. The bracelet on his arm slid forward and seemingly folded outward, the part in his hand becoming a shaped grip while the top portion rattled and telescoped forward to form the rifle-like Device. Extending backward from the weapon was an arm brace made of a black metal, and something looking like a backpack appeared on Shou's back before it too began to unfold, moving upward, forward, and backward. Shoulder plates formed at the same time that two thick columns of metal extended backward, and then those broke into five sections apiece a short distance down their length and bent over in several places, forming the skeleton of metallic wings. As those finished forming, another, larger brace extended itself over his off hand.
To finish the setup, a chestplate wrapped around from his back and protected his front, and the frame of a visor moved upward from it before detaching itself from the assembly as it finished shaping itself around Shou's head. The visor appeared in another flash of light that moved from right to left, red glass shielding the young mage's eyes. He straightened his back a bit, seemingly "stretching" his wings in the process, as the light around him faded.
