''His body exploded into a red aura and suddenly he seemed a lot stronger than before.''

The Kaioken technique is a powerful spell altering tool. There are three versions which it is capable of.

*Boosting Ki Blasts: The damage a ki blast deals rises by 50%.  For every two spell slots higher you cast this in, you gain an additional +50% damage for the duration (to a maximum of +150% as an 8th level spell).  The duration of this is 1 round, or until your next attack.

*Expand Ki Blasts: You benefit from [[Expand Spell (3.5e Feat)|Expand Spell]].  For every additional spell slot higher you cast this in, you stack another Expand Spell to increase the area.  The duration of this is 1 round, or until your next attack.

*Improve an attack: You gain your caster level to your next attack.  For every spell slot higher you cast this in, you gain your caster level to your next attack again (to a maximum of 5 damage per caster level at 9th).  This extra damage bypasses resistances, immunities, and DR except for DR/-, but is not multiplied on a critical hit.  The duration of this is 1 round, or until your next attack.

*Improve one's speed: For one round your speed doubles, and you gain the Pounce ability.  Your movement does not provoke attacks of opportunity, and you ignore difficult terrain from non-magical sources.  For every spell slot higher you cast this in, your speed multiplies further (x3, x4, x5) to a maximum of x7 at 9th.  The duration of this is 1 round, or until your next attack.

You take 1d2 points of Constitution damage from the strain of pushing yourself each time.  If you cast it from a higher level spell slot the damage die increases by one step (1d3, 1d4, 1d6, etc) to a maximum of 2d6 at 9th.  If you cannot take Constitution damage, you cannot benefit from this spell.
