Maybe someone can shoot lasers from their eyes and happened to be looking at you, or maybe someone can summon rocks above enemies, would this stop them doing that?

Quote:The edge of the disc is sharp and will cut through almost anything

Quote:When describing how powerful a move is, try not to use wording like "cuts through skin" or "breaks bones". This is because the actual damage an attack causes will depend not just on the power of the move, but also your opponent's DEF stat in relation to your ATK. It's best to leave this somewhat vague.

Quote:The Death Saucer will continue on until it collides with an object of sufficient mass to stop it (eg. the ground).

The D-101 Longbow is a high calibre semi-automatic Designated Marksman Rifle that can fire on the move as well as fire from a stationary position. The Longbow's rate of fire is three shots per second, reloading a magazine takes around two seconds, and the effective firing range is up to 2000m. Alexander can carry up to six magazines with each magazine containing twenty-five rounds and five seconds to replenish spent magazines. The weapon's hypervelocity rounds make accuracy pinpoint even at long to extreme ranges with no bullet drop and deal heavy damage. One particular drawback of the Longbow being bullets leave faint streaks of white vapour which enemies can use to track to the sniper’s location at the time of firing.


Hammond P2016 - (300, requires Ranged Proficiency)
The Hammond P2016 is a semi-automatic handgun that can fire on the move. The weapon's handheld size, precise accuracy and bullet's moderate damage make it a reliable backup weapon. The Hammond sidearm's magazines can hold as much as thirty rounds, the rate of fire is six bullets per second, reload per clip takes one second, Alexander can hold up to five magazines at a time and replenish them in five seconds. The effective firing range is up to 60m; the sidearm is light enough for Alex to use another handheld weapon with his free hand like his Data bayonet or grab onto ledges and walls when freerunning.

Grapple Launchers - (600, requires Ranged Proficiency, Burst Movement)
Located in both forearm sections of Alexander’s Pilot suit are launchers that fire spike-tipped steel cables that latch onto anything. These cables can resist most attempts at being cut and can hold a Pilot in full combat gear or upwards of 750 Lbs of weight. Primarily used as a method of relocation that can propel Alexander through the air to the desired location. Maximum range is two hundred and fifty yards; the cables are capable of creating instant ziplines that snap tight near instantly. The ziplines can fully extend and retract within three seconds the motors responsible for firing the cables can propel the user instantaneously. These launchers can also be utilised as weapons, latching onto opponents with its metal barbs or tripping them. This tactic is ill-advised against bigger and heavier opponents as they can simply pull on the cable/s and drag Alexander towards them.

Quote:Gravity Manipulation – Stepping Stones (600)
(Flight, Master Acrobat)
Hijiri is able to change how gravity influences his whole body and reduce the effect so much that he is able to walk on water or leap through the air using small objects such as leaves or twigs as stepping stones. Hijiri must spend a small amount of energy to keep this ability active and, if he is not careful, risks tiring himself out. If this happens, gravity will begin to affect him normally and he will either fall through the surface of the water, or drop from the sky.

Quote:Gravity Manipulation – Variable Weighted Strikes (600)
(Physical Strength)
Hijiri is able to change how gravity influences only specific parts of his body. Using this ability, Hijiri is able to, with a few seconds of concentration, speed up his attacks. Making his arms (including weapons) lighter, he is able to attack faster but this also makes his attacks less powerful due to the reduced weight behind them. Hijiri can also, after a few seconds of concentration, increase the weight of his attacks. This usually happens in the split instant just before the strike lands, to get the most out of the effect. This also makes him a lot slower due to the increased weight of his body. This move requires a moderate amount of energy and will tire him out if overused.

Quote:Personal Gravity Manipulation (1200)
(Flight, Physical Strength)
Hijiri is able to alter the strength of gravity's effect on his body (and his weapons, clothes, etc.) to the extent of being able to become as light as a feather, as heavy as a tonne of bricks, or anything in between. These effects come with all of the associated up- and downsides you would expect.

Being extremely light would allow him to stand on fragile objects, 'fly' on gusts of wind, and attack quickly, for example, but would drastically weaken his blows due to the low weight behind them, and would allow him to be knocked or thrown around easily by others, whilst being extremely heavy would make his attacks noticeably stronger, but would also make him tire far faster and move much slower due to the additional weight.

Making himself lighter is instantaneous, regardless of the change in weight, and costs no energy. Making himself heavier requires one second of charge-up per 10kg of weight added (so increasing his weight from 'feather-like' to the maximum value of one tonne would take 100 seconds). This move drains his energy rapidly whilst charging. He is capable of moving whilst charging this, and can even begin an attack, however actually hitting (or being hit) by an opponent will interrupt the charge, and as no weight is added until he intentionally ends the charging period, this means that all progress will be lost, and his spent energy will have gone to waste. Maintaining this move has no inherent energy cost.

Hijiri can also have this move affect only part of his body (e.g. an arm or a leg) if he wishes it to. Note that whilst making his entire body weigh an amount far beyond his capacity to endure (e.g. a tonne) would kill him instantly, doing the same to an individual hand or foot, for example, would merely pin him to the ground, break every bone in the affected appendage and cause him to experience excruciating pain.

Quote:Maintaining this move has no inherent energy cost.

Since you can effectively maintain this indefinitely (with the natural drawbacks), it kind of makes it a bit like a transformation/alt form. (i.e, when light you get +1 SPD but -1 ATK, and the opposite for being heavy - potentially being more potent at times). That kind of thing is likely to get rejected without additional downsides. Constant passive effects like you've described in the changed moves generally aren't doable (without being slowly draining or something) - for a set of strikes or a short time, it's fine though. The flying part of the move is basically fodder at this point though, since you actually have flight.

In the original version, it was worded like you'd have to charge each heavy strike, hence the new mechanics seem to be stronger.

So, perhaps have an inherent stamina drain. It doesn't need to be big, just enough that it stops you using them non-stop, so he has to at least do some management over it. Especially the lighter one, since that doesn't seem to have any stamina drain at all compared to the original move.

In addition, maintaining this move drains his energy slowly. Cancelling it returns him to his original weight instantly, but can only be done when he is within 10kg of that weight, or when he loses consciousness or dies. In the latter cases it is cancelled automatically, but in the former he must intentionally decide to end the effect.

Hijiri can also have this move affect only part (or parts) of his body (e.g. an arm & a leg) if he wishes it to.

3rd Stance Hwechook (300 OM)
Requires Physical Strength and Burst Movement
A three-step kick and one of the most advanced moves in Renewal Taekwondo. Hui Mori moves towards his opponent at blinding speeds and delivers a three kicks his opponent in the head in three different directions so fast that afterimages of each hit appear. After 2 seconds the opponent feels the impact of all three hits, each of which hits with three times the power of his normal kicks. A skilled opponent can move their head towards the initial blow to soften it's impact and throw off other his, or predict the move entirely and knock off the balance Mori needs making the attack have no effect if Mori's TEC is lower or equal to his opponents.


tl;dr: Is having a TEC requirement a drawback and if so how much does it get me?
