The setting is an alternative 1920s where humanity have been eternally at war with shamons, evil monsters who seem bent on destroying mankind. The technology is more advanced in the time period than in our world, due to Soulstones, an ore that produces great amounts of energy, much higher than anything in our world. In this world, some people have special powers, having a "soul that burns brighter"; these people have been immortalized in history and legend as great heroes, their successors being known as nobility, with their genitor's power laying dormant in them. Among these, some inherit the same power that their forefathers had, having a powerful soul, these people are known as Seisha (or pneumatics). Albeit, many of them got lost in history, making it so that some people with powerful souls can be found among the common people.

The characters are young (typically between 16 and 21 years old) special heroines whose soul burns brighter. Their mission is to protect the fast-growing Imperial Capital of Tokyo from those who want it destroyed. They're able to pilot the new petalframes, prototype soul-powered robots.

Petalframes are currently the greatest weapon of mankind against the forces of evil; the fact that they're soul-powered means that they're only limited by the pilot's spiritual power. They're highly mobile (compared to the sluggish vehicles of the time frame), can carry heavy weaponry and benefit from all combat skills of its pilot, acting as an augmentation of their body.

Petalframes are only possible by tamashishi, a special kind of soulstone that can only be found in Japan. It's specialness is in the fact the it not only has a power source of its own, but can harness energy directly from a person's soul, making it's output potentially limitless. Petalframes are the result of a joint effort by both mystics and Japanese scientists, with funding from rich benefactors around the world.

Due to size constrains, tradition and a barely-known spiritual phenomenon, only women seem to be able to effectively pilot them. Besides that, it takes the powerful soul of a seisha to handle them. Thus, most of the candidates to pilot them are of noble lineages. Those who pilot petalframes are called Blossom Maidens, or BMs for short.

A quirk of petalframes and BMs is that they can activate Final Blossom: a last effort in battle, if removes all limitations on the amount of energy harnessed from a person's soul, temporarily allowing huge outputs of power. The consequence comes in the risks it can bring: almost guaranteed death, or permanent soul-scarring for the most fortunate, meaning complete or partial loss of spiritual powers.
Among the seisha, there's also those who are able to manifest powers of the mind, also known as Konsha (psychics). They're a minority even among the seisha and many live their lives without realizing they have these powers.

Finally, there are those who, through study and meditation, try to tap into higher spiritual powers; these are called Mystics. Most mystics are clergy from all around the world, but some are simply scholars with great talent. Most mystic schools still in practiced developed in the Renaissance, for the purpose of fighting the shamons.

Mystic arts work just as magic from other settings.
About weapons and gear, blossom maidens always carry their Soul Keys, which they use to activate their petalframes and which, on emergencies, can shifted into a short-sword, whip or pistol, at the maiden's preference; with customization being possible.

Depending on their customs, they may carry swords with them; everyone can carry a concealable weapon. The Headquarters have all sorts of armament, but 'civilians' aren't expected to be carrying stuff like that. Anything else that's reasonable for a normal person to carry is permitted.

Below are some petalframe model examples. Feel free to come up with one of your own, or modify one of these. Petalframe keywords can optionally have flaws, like light-armored, slow, etc. And can get creative with weapons and utilities for your petalframe. They can be more multidimensional than this, and a petalframe keyword's description can go up to around 100 words (again, not a hard limit).

All petalframe keywords start at 5M instead of 10, and can go up to 15M (instead of 5M) at character generation.

Steel Lotus

Its shield can defend against most weapons, while its cannon can fire heavy explosive or armor-piercing rounds. Additionally, it carries a sword for close-combat, which can be paired with its shield.

It also has high aquatic maneuver capabilities.
Abilities: Electric trident, water-canon, cloud-screen, amphibian

Silver Snowdrop

Petalframe: Rose Verte (aka Rosa Monstrosa)
La Rose Verte is a design that is a compromise between the Crimson Rose and the Emerald Fern. Most of the chassis design (including the thrusters) is derived from the Crimson sibling, but the arms and armour differ significantly. Instead of twin swords, it sports a single sabre for the close-combat armament, which lacks the superheating system. It borrowed the Fern's thorn launchers in a slightly modified form: no electroshock system, but an ability to shoot thorns with or without tethers (the latter offering a higher rate of fire and precision). The freed up volume was filled with armour and higher-quality actuators, which made this frame more responsive than the Fern but stronger and tougher than the Crimson, while maintaining high mobility. It's a solid no-nonsense frame with good specs, but many bemoaned its lack of the more exotic weapon features of its siblings.
Abilities: Lightning Bruiser, Air-Dash Thrusters, Thorn and Tether Launchers, Responsive and Precise.
La Maupin's Lineage (d'Aubigny Lineage)
You share ancestors with with Julie d'Abigny, the daring and scandalous fencer and singer. Even though Julie never had children, and your relation to her comes through her grandparents, nearly everyone calls your lineage by the name 'La Maupin'. Members of this bloodline are often graceful (whether on stage or in the salle d'armes), audacious, and entertaining. Often, the more outrageous the undertaking they decide to perform, the more they thrive at it, as if Fortune herself can't help but become biased at the sight of unconventional defiance.
Abilities: Fencing, Song and Dance, Epicene Appeal, Succès de scandale, Fortune Favours the Audacious.
Flaws: Overconfidence, eccentricity and rebelliousness.
Techniques:
Blade-Lock and Repartee Approach
Mocking Flourish Cut
One Step From Enmity to Attraction Gambit
