*Mike(Mike43) Was in the courtyard of the palace training himself. Though as he did he began hearing the faint calling of his Star. Looking up to the sky he heard it more clearly. It seemed to be wanting to share knowledge with him as he had made the Star pleased with their progress as a Warrior. Mike was kind of excited to hear he'd be learning something more for the odd far away benefactor. The last time was when it had taught him how to regulate his Ki. It had allowed him to turn the tables around with foes far stronger then himself. So could only imagine what else it had to teach him. Though what it began to tell him wasn't at all what he had expected at all. It was similar to using the Feral's stars energy but instead it involved eating the energy the star of this world created. Using it's energy to infuse it into one's Ki to make it more potent. He wasn't sure how this would help but the Star seemed to want him to learn how to do this and so, that's what he would do. And so began his efforts to learn how to Eat Sunlight and turn it into Strength. [Ripple Dev] *

(Optional) Sample RP of you with the skill:

Mike had began trying trying to figure out how to take in the Sunlight. He had thought of a few ways. Non really being effective, the least being him actually trying to bite the air. It had honestly been the first thing he had thought to try after being told to eat sunlight.  The second was kind of imagining he was a plant and the energy of the sunlight was absorbing into him, but that didn't really do anything either.  The next was just breathing, but again he wasn't really sure.


He tried at it daily. Returning to methods he had thought hadn't worked but with different variables added here and there but through out it all he was feeling like he wasn't getting anywhere. So he turned to ask his Star for directions or some kind of guidance. Only to be told to do as he normally does but keeping the energy of the Sun in him.

IT was told to him as it it was the simplest thing in the world, which kind of frustrated him and want to snap back but instead he held his tongue. He was going to try to figure out something as the Star seemed to think he was capable of do such.

He tired to just think on how he used the energy of his Star. It kind of just happened in truth. He pulled the energy into himself as easily as he do breathing. He began trying to just do what he did with His star. He felt something. It was foreign but faint. It was an small bit of energy that he hadn't felt before. He took a deep breath and noticed more of this energy fill his lungs, and it was then that it kind of clicked.

While breathing was the key to harnessing this sun energy. Intent and maybe acknowledgment was needed to retain it? He wasn't sure honestly but he hadn't noticed it till now for what ever reason. But it felt like it was fleeting. He would begin just training himself to try to stockpile on the energy and retain it. It was like a constant struggle to keep this energy inside of him. Like he was trying to keep it in strainer. He kept feeling like he was having patch up holes only to find more when he thought he was retaining the energy.

It took him another day to change his method. Instead of trying to keep it all inside of him he would allow it to flow through him. The idea was to take in the energy an let it flow down to his gut and then spreading out evenly throughout his body. The mental image was like a giant lung or the tides. This while it didn't allow him to hold more inside of him it seemed to slow the expended energy leaking out as much.

 He wasn't exactly sure what use this energy would do for him but he trusted the Star and that it knew more then him. In time he come to know more about this energy as he practiced more with it. For now, he could at least utilize this energy throughout his body.
