Vitruvius Wrote:I edited the description for Manji Ryu. OOC explanation, they're fight stances utilizing the Burst Movement, Super Jump and Master Acrobat powers as a means of quick reparte. Like in the games when Yoshimitsu sits down, he disappears and reappears for an attack. If he's on his stilts, he walks toward the enemy and can go into a vaulting kick and slam back down with the sword. He'll jump and come crashing down. Or he spins out of the way of an attack for a counter. I'm using it as a spring board for the rest of his move set from the games. But the caveat is most of his stance moves cause some sort of damage to him for...whatever reason. I'm giving the reason that it pushes the body beyond human limits so it causes some wounding.

(600) Manji Ryu (Burst Movement, Super Jumping, Master Acrobat)
The most curious style seen but never duplicated, the Manji Ryu trains its extents to master their physical abilities to perform outrageous nonsensical moves. In a flash, Yoshimitsu can use his katana as stilts, standing on them as a different fighting stance that leads into various attacks. He can jump to inhuman heights, spinning his blade like a helicopter and come slamming down with a cutting arc that has been known to slice through anything. Yoshimitsu will take a lotus sitting stance before leaping or dashing at enemies. Each position he takes make for leading into attacks the enemy wouldn't see coming. Often used as a distraction before dealing a blow. The quick movement, the jumping and the flips, turns and twists are the true crux of the martial art style. the warrior moving so quickly they appear to be teleporting or flashing out of nowhere before the blow lands. Of course the downfall of all Manji Ryu techniques is the caveat that if performed in quick succession or for prolonged amounts of time, the fighter's body will take damage. Spinning to dodge or attack will inflict pain, slowing the descent or speeding up the ascent by twirling the blade will cause wounding or walking on the katana will drain health. The style is wildly unpredictable and effective, but losing health makes every battle a race to see who gets cut down first, Yoshimitsu by his own hands or the enemy.

Nyeseth Wrote:Flash Strike – 300 OM (Physical Strength, Burst Movement)
Nyeseth uses his burst movement to speed himself up in bursts of movement. While doing this, he either closes in on his opponent or moves around them if already in close proximity. After reaching a close proximity, Nyeseth strikes the opponent each time he uses his burst movement around them, striking them up to ten times.

This move can be interrupted by anyone who can match his speed.

Knight Artorias Wrote:Posting these for the future, when the time comes to buy them. (And I get enough OM, of course. Heh.)

Abyss Greatshield -- 600 OM (Requires: Physical Strength, Area Shield Proficiency)
This shield is absolutely massive, nearly matching its wielder in height yet again. When crouched in a combat stance, the shield can cover nearly his entire body from at least the front. Once bearing powerful magic to match the Abysswalker's greatsword, it warded off all manner of magical poisons and curses, but is now merely a scorched, scarred and blackened shadow of its former self. Still a well-made and sturdy shield, it offers excellent defenses against both physical and magical attack, and at need can even be used as a bludgeon to knock foes back that may be too close for his greatsword. While a powerful defensive implement, it is also exceptionally heavy and unwieldy, and restricts movement when actively being wielded, and the shock of blows deflected by it are still transferred to Artorias himself, so enough blows -- or a particularly powerful one -- could easily knock the shield aside or stagger him, knocking his balance astray and leaving him vulnerable.

Quote:Feral Smash -- 300 OM (Requires: Physical Strength, Area Attack Proficiency)
Hefting his greatsword overhead, Artorias funnels the dark power of the Abyss through it, coating it in a writhing cloud of shadow, taking approximately three seconds. He then charges at his target, bringing down the blade and producing an explosion of darkness around the point of impact.

Quote:Wrath of the Abyss -- 300 OM (Requires: Area Attack Proficiency, Ranged Proficiency)
Artorias plants his blade into the ground, beginning to gather dark magic and power from the Abyss into a swirling aura of shadow and foul, purple magic around him. After approximately five seconds of charging, Artorias lets out a savage howl, releasing the gathered energy in a brief, but powerful explosion, reaching roughly three meters outward, and nearly twice that straight upward.

Desco Wrote:Upgrade for my imminent purchase, 0 OM cost? Bolded parts that have changed. I assume this is 0 OM because Yogsothoth is still a part of Desco's body and attacks that strike him are the same as hitting her main body.

Bodypart Yogsothoth (600) (Requires Remote Control Proficiency, Ranged Proficiency, Physical Strength, Malleability) - Desco exists as two parts which are inherently one. There is her small, little demon girl body and the tentacled monstrosity that usually floats behind her, referred to as Yogsothoth. While always physically separate from Desco, Yogsothoth is as much a part of her body as her arms or legs. Hurting Yogsothoth is the same as damaging Desco's arm or any other part of her body. Yogsothoth can move independently from Desco, consciously or unconsciously, and his tentacles are Desco's main weapons opening up as mouths, the edges where the tentacles open where the light and dark purples on her body meet making them jagged and are also razor sharp. They can also be used as bludgeoning weapons, slapping enemies instead of biting. Desco does not normally exhibit elastic properties except for her tail, she just can't do it, but Yog's many tentacles do stretch far and wide to attack, up close or at a fair distance away, up to 20 feet. Desco typically uses only the top two tentacles for any attack. (Consider that to stretch out and increase in size they draw in mass from the rest of of Yog, to follow the restrictions of Malleability)

Levitate (+300) - Yogsothoth can be summoned or dismissed at will, taking a few seconds to materialize. Yog is summoned in some position immediately next to Desco. While he is directly behind Desco she can float and move a few feet above the ground with only slightly more effort than walking or running, though Desco is typically pretty slow. Yogsothoth can even be, and often is, summoned through unconscious instinct.

Instinct (+300) (Requires Area Shield Proficiency) - Guided mostly through instinct, Yog watches through the many yellow eyes all over Desco's body, which Desco herself can't see through even to react to another's presence, and with that nearly 360 degree vision he can see most things coming and instinctively attempt to block though this is less speedy or effective than blocking consciously. When Yogsothoth blocks for Desco, consciously or by instinct, his skin hardens and Desco takes less damage as long as the block is successful.

There no strict distance where Yog cannot go away from Desco, however as Desco cannot see through the yellow eyes consciously she has no way to effectively tell Yog what to do when not in visual range, and Yog doesn't actually have a mind of his own. Without direction he simply fades out and back to Desco. Typically when he isn't just unsummoned, Yog rarely leaves Desco's side except for specific super moves.

Kaen Pyron Wrote:Rift Edge (Requires Ranged Proficiency, Area Attack Proficiency) -300 OM

• Pyron steps back and sheathes his katana. He charges the attack for a 3 seconds before quickly drawing and re-sheathing. The speed of the attack creates a 1-meter diameter spherical dimensional rift up to 5 meters away and can hit multiple people. It deals damage as if the defender were to be hit with Pyron's katana. At a glance it appears to be a sphere of darkness, but upon a closer look, one can see that it actually appears to be swirling, much like one of those smoke balls. Can only be used once per round. Cannot be used while moving. Original Move: Judgement Cut. I'm just giving it measurements and some description.

Atelos Wrote:Aura Swords-300
Atelos' permanent aura manifests physically, forming three swords following his commands as if they were controlled by limbs. They cannot extend further than if were held by an arm but has the flexibility to move around his entire body at will. They are not very strong but they are very quick. Does not have any elemental attributions.

The Chosen Undead Wrote:Dragon Slayer's Greatbow (300 OM) Requires Ranged Proficiency
One of the few ranged weapons that the Chosen Undead wielded during his time in Lordran. This massive greatbow is well deserving of its name, being a good foot taller than the undead himself, it launches what seems more like short spears or small lances that hit with incredible destructive force. Likely the closest to a rocket launcher that a simple bow could ever reach, the weapon nonetheless has significant drawbacks in addition to the incredible force of the arrows it launches. Thanks to the bows unwieldy size, weight, and the sheer force it launches things, it will send the user skidding backwards. Any attempt to fire this while not in a stable, standing position will end with the user actually falling backwards, and the arrow likely going nowhere near its intended target, and firing with one's back to a ledge is an obvious problem. In addition, its size and composition gives it an incredible drawstrength, it requires a herculean effort to actually pull the string back. As a result, it's not the choice for rapid fire, and instead, every single arrow requires a ponderous, slow effort of pulling the string back, before one can then aim, and fire. It is very slow on the draw, and if the Chosen Undead doesn't have a significant distance between his opponents, it's unlikely he'll get more than one shot in, if even that.
