Ok, let me try. Looks a bit like Robert Joe's ability, though Anastasius' style is more about using artifacts in creative ways, than creating artefacts themselves.

Psynergy Vector(by Anastasius)
This battle style is based on the constant use of utility psynergies in a creative way, which makes the fighter highly versatile. Most utility psynergies are harmless in combat, and those which can be used offensively, turn out to be easy to dodge. However, once they are combined with Anastasius' arsenal of gadgets, powerful attacks are produced. Anastasius' proficiency with utility psinergies does not only allow them to use strengthened versions of each, but also to combine them in order to unleash offensives involving items from their personal stash.

The Vector style of combat creates a crafting, personal menu where Anastasius can combine different utility psynergies with their acquired items. Each additional psynergy crafted in this way is added to the list of attack psynergies, which is otherwise empty since Anastasius does not know combat psynergies.

Here are some examples of their craft:

Maybe we could roughly categorize style sub-capabilities?

Here's what I've seen so far, roughly splattered by the mind of a nedben (these normally overlap considerably):
-New Mechanic (changes the paradigm of caster capabilities and control: something that'd take a new menu or at least isn't likely to be seen used by others at all)
-New Spell (pretty much a brand new psynergy: invoked as an action to cast it and it does things, if not tied to other things could probably be posted in psynergy ideas)
-Metamagic (much like d&d metamagic, makes another spell behave slightly differently, either as an invoked passive or a necessary passive)
-Spell Variant (takes an existing spell or ability, such as a utility psynergy, and makes it have one or more variants that do different things, like Precognition Shot and Halt).
-Passive (this does things in the background, usually always-on or automatic capabilities, i.e. a counterattack chance)
-Invoked Passive (this does things under certain conditions requiring you to activate it, i.e. using the Speed Demon Wyvern's Boost psynergy)

Djinn String (by Nedben)

Practitioners of this style are masters of manipulating djinni to do their bidding. Through the use of putting djinn on strings made of psynergy and psynergetically sensitive materials and a copious abuse of something not dissimilar to Lash and/or commanding invisible flying psychic spiders, one can fling them at people, accelerate their recovery, set them quickly, flat-out empower them, use them as party balloons members more effectively than by default, and even turn them into tanks.
