Official Move Approval III

[The Dreamer]

Tendril Entanglement (Requires Ranged Proficiency, Area Attack Proficiency, Debuff Proficiency) -- 300 OM
[spoiler]Emerald slams the ground with both palms, growing roots below the surface of the ground and sending them at the target. The roots erupt from ground under target, and begin to wrap around their body, limbs, throat, and weapons if any, with moderate speed, restricting movement and constricting the target. Targets with a sharp weapon may be able to cut away some of the roots, reducing the roots' hold on them. Can be used to attack multiple targets at the same time, up to four. Attacking multiple targets at once decreases underground travel speed by 50% for each additional target beyond the first additional target, and increases the strain on Emerald to maintain the hold on all targets. She must remain still and connected to the ground to maintain the hold on the target(s).

The roots are 4 to 6 inches thick each, and green in color. They move 25 meters per second underground, and take a maximum of 5 seconds to restrain an average adult male. The roots erupt from ground in a five foot diameter under each target. The entanglement lasts as long as Emerald remains focused on holding the target(s), up to 10 minutes, leaving her significantly tired if held that long. The freeing of one target does not affect the state of another.[/spoiler]

Briar Barrier (Requires Area Shield Proficiency, Area Attack Proficiency) -- 600 OM
[spoiler]”One Handed Shield”
Emerald brings a forearm in front her of body, as if to defend, summoning a thorny briar as a shield against attacks. Can defend repeated strikes against blunt object attacks, but has reduced effectiveness against sharp weapons. Energy and Fire based attacks destroy the shield with one attack. This shield can only be casted in a chosen direction. This shield forms nearly instantly.

“Dual-Wield Shield”
Alternatively, Emerald can slam the ground with both palms (or fists if hold a weapon(s)), summoning a thicker and stronger version of the shield, more equipped to defend against ranged attacks. This version is almost entirely unaffected by blunt attacks and sharp weapon strikes. Can defend against repeated strikes by piercing attacks, like bullets, arrow, or bolts, but has reduced effectiveness against Energy and Elemental attacks, resisting up to three strikes by them. Fire attacks burn the shield entirely, taking 5 seconds to destroy it. This shield can be casted in a chosen direction, or in a sphere around Emerald. This shield forms in one second.

Emerald can leave summoned shields intact where she summoned them, without any additional effort required, and but can only have up to two shields active at once. If she tries to summon another shield while two are already active, then both wither away as she summons the new one.

Both versions damage Melee attackers with the briar’s thorns.

The shields are three feet in width and six feet high, with their bases rooted in the ground. They are green in color, made of vines thickly tangled together and covered in thorns.[/spoiler]

Vine Lash (Requires Ranged Proficiency, Remote Control Proficiency) -- 600 OM
[spoiler]Emerald summons four thick and strong vines from the ground to assist her in offence and defense, taking three seconds to fully grow to ten feet in length. The vines attack and defend as Emerald does, acting essentially as additional limbs and extensions of herself, making it more difficult for an opponent to defend/dodge her melee attacks. Vines with Emerald's attacks by whipping and striking at the target.

If needed, by bring up a forearm to defend herself, Emerald can call upon a vine to block for her, similar to if she were to actually block with her own arm(s). Each vine can block one attack, and is destroyed afterwards, shriveling and dying. The vines are as fast and as strong as Emerald is, even reflecting and reduction in speed or strength she suffers. Essentially, if she cannot move, neither can the vines.

The vines are rooted at their base to where they were initially grown, and can move freely to attack and defend as needed, growing stretching to length as needed as well. They are ineffective if the target has moved more than 50 meters in any direction (including into the air) from where they were initially grown.

The vines themselves can be attacked at their base to disable them, and cannot defend themselves independently of Emerald’s instruction. The vines’ growth can only be interrupted if Emerald is knocked unconscious or if they are destroyed.[/spoiler]
