|Meito: Chimamire Arashi| - A sword with the grade of Ryo Wazamono that he inherited from his grandfather, possessing weight and cutting power superior to a normal katana but not as heavy as wielding a larger weapon. There was an old folktale on how the sword 'speaks' when it tastes fresh blood, but he hasn't confirmed this personally.

Swordsmanship
His natural talent lies with wielding a blade, which he does with a burning expertise and passion. While he’s never officially named his style, it extensively relies on the Power of Destruction and elements of power-based swordsmanship to devastate opponents with brute force and blistering heat. After training under Samhein, Sior can slice through steel and materials harder than it along with incorporating the basics of the Sun Sword style into his move set.

Martial Expertise & The Talent to Match
While he does possess superhuman agility and durability, his physical strength is his most overwhelming and outstanding trait to the point where shattering stone or even steel with his bare hands is no impossible feat. He's also a capable hand-to-hand combatant and possesses immense stamina to go with the rest of the set, having fought for an entire day without stopping. [Although this left him to be completely crashed for the next two days afterward.]

Navigation
Something that he picked up in his voyages, as traveling alone through the Grand Line with no sense of direction is a death wish; so he was quick to learn the proper time to set sail and the time where you should wait out the storm.

Abilities

Mushin - A technique that involves distancing the mind and heart away from the body, removing any influence from outside forces that would ruin the user’s concentration. It allows for the user to fight and act without falling victim to fear or hesitation but runs the risk of permanently altering their state of mind for good, rendering them an emotionless husk. For now, Sior has avoided these consequences by limiting his usage of it.

Shinku Giri - A sword technique where Chimamire Arashi seems to gleam for a moment before unleashing a flying slash of compressed air, leaving painful cuts even with the slightest nick.

Hoko no Hoho - More of a habit than an actual technique where he walks differently by placing the ball of his foot on the ground first. It still serves a purpose in combat by granting him the ability to make sharp turns and evade attacks far more swiftly than normal.

Shishi Ouji no Hoko: One of his newest moves where he grips the sword with both hands before unleashing a powerful thrust, the resulting force of the cut taking the image of a crimson lion's head that smashes into the foe. Unlike most flying slashes, this can actually deal enough blunt damage to shatter bones with a direct hit or sending them flying if blocked without a proper defensive technique (Haki, Tekkai, etc.) In exchange, the technique has a small range it can reach compared to a normal flying slash.

Shishi Ouji no Kosho: He performs a sword swing with incredible strength and clashes with the opponents’ weapon or fortified limb, the force of the collision sending an oscillating wave that stuns the opponent's muscles. When combined the Desert Sun technique, this can cause melts in lesser quality weapons.

Shishi Ouji no Tsume: Three swings of the sword that are done with blinding speed, blending in as a single stroke to the untrained eye. When the strikes connect with something or someone, they leave a trail of jagged marks as if a massive lion ran its claws across the surface. This can also be applied in the form of a flying slash, three golden crescents ripping through the air at the speed of a bullet.

Taiyou Shikon: Following the basic principle of the Sun Sword style, he unleashes three thrusts of the sword with surprising speed that contain the energy of a slash in a singular point of impact, causing heat strong enough to evaporate and wither the things it comes into contact with.

Mirukam Avi: Narasimha [Beast Spirit: Narasimha] - A technique that invokes both a mental and physical change in Sior, it is a manifestation of focus and willpower that taps into the savage Sior Morris that cut his way through the Grand Line amalgamation before meeting the Harlequins, combining his combat experience and skill with animalistic instincts, granting him vastly improved reactions and greater applications of strength. The marketed sign of activation is a sudden aura that flows from his body, causing anyone nearby to see an amalgamation of a man and lion with four arms hovering over him before it fades --- causing his signature red cloak to flow similar to a raging fire. He acts notably more aggressive in this mode and tends to speak even less, as this is a move solely intended for battle.

Busoshoku Haki - the 'color' of Haki allowing the user to create an invisible armor around their body or harden it to the point it seems dark as iron; it boosts the offensive and defensive capabilities greatly, but also allows to hit the 'substantial body' of Devil Fruit users, bypassing their usual defensive abilities. He can employ this to harden his limbs or Chimamire Arashi to increase their potency, along with fueling his Sun Sword techniques with further intensity to the point where flesh could be melted off.

Shishigami no Kokyo Hoko [Lion God's Imperial Roar] - An improved version of his original 'Hoko' technique. It's performed the same way as normal, except the resulting lion head is twice the size of his body and possesses a longer range -- smashing through materials harder than steel without a problem. It can also be imbued with the Power of Destruction, causing the head to catch on fire and leave any unfortunate target scorched.

Shishigami no Moeru Hayate [Lion God's Burning Gale] - A swing of the sword that applies the basis behind the Desert Sun technique in an air slash in the shape of an X, large enough to cleave through a galleon and leave terrific burns in anything it touches. This can be repeatedly multiple times as needed.

Hissatsu Ougi - Bunretsu no Tsurugi [Sure Death Secret Technique - Sword of Dividing] - The 'grandest' technique in his entire arsenal. It starts off with him sheathing Chimamire Arashi and quickly drawing the weapon in a split second, causing sparks to fly from the speed of the unsheathing before unleashing a horizontal flying slash that expands into a colossal size that rivals two battleships, imbued with an intense level of heat that allows to cut and burn through almost anything with lethal results. It can also be performed in melee range without the flying slash, where he instead slashes the opponent with immense strength. Entering Narasimha is required to perform this technique --- and the usage of Haki is occasionally used to supplement it.
