Move Creation Workshop

[Alex Mercer]

I did mean charge time, I'm a bit of an airhead at times. 


OLD

Claws: 
Req: Physical
Alex shifts the biomass in one of his hands into a four-digit blade like structure. The change effects his entire arm, taking on a wicked, sickly black form. The transformation takes three seconds, but is not fatiguing in itself and he can move about normally during this time. The claws are fast and agile, requiring minor fatigue to use, making them his go-to weapon. They don't fair well against higher defense, and are more meant for minor slashing damage, perfect against unarmored targets.

Claws: 
Req: Physical
Alex shifts the biomass in one of his hands into a four-digit blade like structure. The change effects his entire arm, taking on a wicked, sickly black form. The transformation takes three seconds, but is not fatiguing in itself and he can move about normally during this time. The claws are fast and agile, requiring minor fatigue to use, making them his go-to weapon. Though the claws are lethal and can deal a great amount damage against softer targets while remaining quite fast, the great speed and strength behind each blow is counteracted by the lower density of the biomass of the hand and arm. From the shoulder down is a weak point, the lighter density Biomass is tightly woven to give a combination of speed and strength, but its defense is lowered by half. The claws maintain a slightly higher Defense, but through wear and tear the blades become dull or chipped, reducing their damage over time. Cutting tougher materials dulls the blades more than softer targets. Mercer can reforge them, but it takes the three seconds of non-use as if he were creating them for the first time. This does not heal any damage to the arm.

Bumped Damage again, added a decreasing yield over number of uses and a Renewal time equal to the Charge time, during which the weapon cannot be used.

Downsides:
Half Defense from shoulder down
Wear and tear on the blades, reduces damage
3 Second Charge
3 Second Renewal

Upsides:
High Damage
Fast Attack Speed
