History and Backstory
Bryce was born to the Chambers of Mystic, a noble family famous for acting as the shield and sword to the noble Bolton's, their history stemming back to pre-awakening. The Chambers are naturally physically gifted and their tendency to produce warriors is unmatched within Mystic. Bryce was no exception. From the early age of 3 he displayed tremendous capabilities with the use of his spiritual energy and combat prowess.

Bryce was so good in fact that he was taken away from his immediate family and fostered by the Boltons. He traveled closely with the Red Holy Dragon Ragnar Bolton's family, in particular his younger sister the Dragon Princess herself, Rebecca Bolton. When Rebecca went away to study to become a Legionnaire Bryce became lonely and he began to occupy himself in ways not befitting of a ward of the ascended nobles. He would engage in fights at court beating Bolton kids bloody until he had his fill. He was eventually banished from court entirely and lived in anomy.

Out of boredom Bryce began to venture away from Mystic. With hand picked Bolton guards by his side he began exploring all there was to explore at the age of 10. He traveled to darkest depths of Igong to study the dark arts of spiritual awakening. He also witnessed all 11 Wonders of the World at first hand in particular the Yunkoi Pits and their ancient crypts said to have been built thousands of years ago; unexplored ruins that from early civilization.

Bryce became enamored with the secrets hidden in the walls and the spirits that told the stories of the very beginnings of human kind. He eventually became trapped with no way out, he had long since abandoned his company and their attempts to find him were fruitless.

It is said that Bryce spent 4 years alone in those crypts. When he arose from the pit of Yunkoi he was no longer the bored child he was upon entering, what returned back to Mystic and eventually joined the Continental Academy was no longer human.

Physical Prowess

 * Monster Level
 * Almighty Swordsmanship

Spiritual Clairvoyance

 * The Spirit of All Things: Bryce's Spiritual Clairvoyance allows for him to perceive the branches of the Root of All Things to a level not quite seen by anyone ever before. The Root of All Things is the belief that all things that happen or are created, living, dead or inanimate come from one source; that source is known as the Root. "Anything that comes from the Root branches out towards the End", everything is on it's inevitable path to destruction. These "branches" however exist as something's theoretical existence, they are proof that an event or phenomenon occurred and to Bryce, these branches can be perceived as spirits.
 * Foresight: Bryce can perceive the "spirit" on an action before it happens, enabling him the ability to see into the future.
 * Insight: Bryce can perceive the "spirit" of an object or person to gain an unprecedented understanding of it. For example, he can enter a room and gain an understanding of what happened in the room when he wasn't there. Or look at a person and gain an understanding of their abilities.

Spiritual Armament
Bryce has the ability to weaponize his own spiritual capacity as a metaphysical force, capable of enhancing the potency of his strikes. He can imbue his spiritual armament into his weapons, or use it to harden his physical body greatly increasing both their offensive and defensive capabilities.

Bryce has also shown that he is able to emit his Spiritual Armament from his body, using it to repel or internally destroy other forces.

Spiritual Presence

Seven Rites
When Bryce spent time in the Yunkoi Crypts, he gained the ability to use seven powerful spirits as familiars. These Spirits take the form of seven unique distinct sets of swords that have been sealed away within his body and they are known as the Seven Rites. Using the Spirit of All Things, Bryce can invoke the true name of the spirit to bring forth it's true power. Mastery of the Seven Rites earned Bryce the nickname, the Sword God.
 * Rite of Transparency: The Rite of Transparency is the first Rite of the Sword God. It manifests itself as the ability for Bryce to summon forth powerful blades of spiritual energy that are incredibly hard to detect. Without even needing to wield them in his hand he can call upon the Rite to both shield himself and attack others. The scope of the ability is unknown and so the typical perception that Bryce is strictly limited to close combat is an unfounded one.
 * Limbo: The true name of the Transparency Spirit, a spirit that manifests itself as a narrow blade with a luminous green edge. This blades true ability is that it is able to bypass physical defenses in a phantom like fashion, instead attacking a person or objects "spirit".
 * Rite of Exorcism: The second Rite of the Sword God. The Rite of Exorcism is a passive ability that all of Bryce's spiritual attacks possess. His attacks have an affinity towards "impure" beings, namely the monsters of Purgatory. By default they do heavy amounts of damage even when they're not necessarily supposed to; it is not that they are particularly holy or divine, that is just the Rite of the Sword God. There is another level to it where Bryce can deem an adversary as impure and have his attacks do the same things.
 * Totsuka: The true name of the Exorcism Spirit, one that forms as a ethereal spiritual sword of red colour. It is a powerful blade capable of sealing away the spirit of those it pierces into a spiritual world until their release.
 * Rite of Vainglory: Like the Rite of Exorcism, the Rite of Vainglory is a passive ability, it is essentially a consistent spiritual buff for Bryce, it constantly amps and tops his current level of spiritual power which in turn amps his Clairvoyance, Armament and Presence.
 * Excalibur: The true name of the Vainglory Spirit, it forms as the majestic longsword of the legends. On it's own, the blade seemingly doesn't have anything particularly special about it. It is simply just the weapon that Bryce tends to rely on, the power of the sword lies in Bryce's conviction. In order to call forth Excalibur, Bryce must have something in his hand that he can perceive as a weapon, upon calling it's name, that weapon will take the form of Excalibur, an unbreakable weapon able to conquer and cut anything.
 * Rite of Tempo: The fourth Rite of the Sword God, the Rite of Tempo grants Bryce the ability to freely manipulate speed and tempo. He has shown to ability to reach immense speeds and also slow down his perception of time as events occur.
 * Selika: White long sword that has the ability to manipulate storms and thunder, it sends off powerful lightning attacks with heavy destructive capacity.
 * Rite of Dreams and Mimicry: The fifth and sixth Rite of the Sword God. The Rite of Dreams and Mimicry go hand in hand as twin spirits. The Rite of Dreams is similar to Bryce's Spiritual Perception in that it allows Bryce to interpret and interact with "The Spirit of All Things", on top of that Bryce can also use the Rite of Dreams to cast powerful spiritual illusions. Where the Rite of Mimicry comes in however is that it enables Bryce to take what he's seen with the Rite of Dreams and his Clairvoyance and replicate them.
 * EMIYA: The true name of the twin spirits, calling on EMIYA, allows for Bryce to impart his own spiritual realm on reality and summon forth an endless amount of weapons that he's witnessed with Dream and manifested with Mimicry. He can take this a step further and even bring others into this spiritual realm to mitigate the time it takes to replicate these weapons. (Gate of Babylon / Unlimited Blade Works combo)
 * Rite of Destruction: The Rite of Destruction is only known in it's true form....Enuma Elish.
