Official Move Approval III

[Strazio Rockwell]

Yes, I expected the blade to be based off my ATK stat and whatnot, sorry for not mentioning it, as I thought it was obvious? (not being smart, I didn't know I had to specify that it was based on my attack, I thought every offensive move was inherently based on ATK.) I have an idea for it though, as a drawback. Not sure if it's what you meant by drawback, but I'll give it a shot.

- Edited version-

High Frequency O Katana (requires Physical Strength) – 300 OM

The high-frequency O Katana is an O Katana reinforced by a powerful alternating current and resonated at extremely high frequencies. This oscillation helps to weaken the molecular bonds of anything it cuts, thereby increasing its cutting ability. Striking, cutting, and thrusting attacks can be performed with the blade, with the sharpened edge and point used for lethal attacks, and the blunt edge can used to inflict crude blunt damage.

The blade itself is a 36” long tempered high carbon spring steel blade, made to withstand enormous amounts of pressure from both striking and bending. The tempered blade can withstand being bent upwards of 55 degrees without having its integrity weakened. The total length and weight of the sword is 49” and 48oz, making the handle a comfortable 13” long, allowing for a reliable two handed grip. This sword is stored in a black lacquered wood scabbard and secured on the left hip, making for easy access.

This blade must be charged via being completely sheathed. At full charge the blade has enough energy to power ten strikes at full ATK potential. With each hit the sword grows 10% weaker until the charge has completely worn off. If the wielder uses all ten strikes, without re-charging the weapon during the course of the fight, the blade "evaporates" and cannot be used until the user has finished the fight, whether through escape, victory, defeat or death. In total the blade takes five minutes to charge, or thirty seconds per strike. This sword is best used with the Iaido/Iaijutsu style of fighting.

High Frequency O Katana - No you don't need to specifically mention that it is based from ATK, I mentioned the ATK to make sure that people understand that if their move has no drawbacks and is quick it will only be as strong as a fraction of their ATK. Basically it was just a reiteration of the rules in case you wanted to make it stronger. I like the drawback, I think a slight bit of tweaking would make it perfect. I'd remove the bit about ATK potential (sorry if I had confused you with my earlier statement). Unless you are dead set on the evaporating portion I think we can find a happy medium while keep the power of the move. Perhaps you get 5 strikes at full power (each attack weaker than the last), but rather than it evaporating at emtpy it simply powers down and becomes a slightly weaker normal sword until recharged. You could also decrease the charge time to something like 10-15 seconds per strike. That way you won't be out of a sword if you attack too many times, and so your opponent won't be too wary about writing you using your sword charges in his post.

Oh okay! My bad then ^ ^;

Is this any better?

High frequency O Katana - APPROVED

Moon Laser - looks good to me, you don't need range materialize since it targets yourself. Though I will say as a personal note, I think you might not want to make it so difficult to target because that seems like it would be a bitch to write, especially versus speedy characters. APPROVED (unless you want to alter it)

What if I made the attack radius larger? Also, the idea is I pin them down or distract them in some way. But I do want to keep in the spirit of the Moon Laser from the comics, in that it's basically the Death Star laser, while keeping in spirit of the Omniverse. So.... bigger lazarz?

I'll buy it as it is now?

ALSO another one, for later.

Stethoscope Bolas (Requires Ranged, Debuff) - 600 OM

Doc whips forth his stethoscope and chucks it at a target, binding them in a rubbery knot. They are as long as they need to be; the size of the target has no effect on the bolas. These can be easily cut loose or, if misaimed, cast aside. However, if aimed correctly, it can hinder the movement of the target indefinitely until the bolas are dealt with. The bolas can be aimed either at the lower limbs (legs) or the upper limbs (arms) of the target. If aimed at the lower limbs and the move is successful, the bolas will trip the target and restrict leg movement. If aimed at the upper limbs and the move is successful, the bolas disables one basic Move (i.e. basic punches or some basic weapons) and restricts arm movement. Doc can throw this up to 6 meters away, but the bolas are very heavy and hard to aim, making his effective range 3 meters.

I don't know how to balance this.

I mean the moon laser is fine as is, I'm just giving you my two cents. It is APPROVED yo.

Stethescope bolas - Remove the portion about them being as long as they need to be - this potentially creates weird scenarios where you could technically shoot a bola large enough to entangle like a building or something. Also remove the bit about disabling a basic move, and leave restricting arm movement.

Tier 1 Super Attack: Bolt of the Thunder God - (requires ranged proficiency) - 600 OM 

Storm clouds roiling overhead, Thor calls down a bolt of lightning into his hammer. After five seconds of lightning the bolt is aimed and fired from his hammer, blasting a target up to 10 meters away. The force of the attack is enough to send most would-be opponents flying backward. It sends the person backward up to 5 meters. Only the toughest of opponents can stand against the power of the Thunder God!

Bolt of the THunder God - APPROVED
