Official Move Approval IV

[Trixie]

Temporal Bubble: 

Whatever happened when the Vegito fusion failed is unknown. However, it is known that Thanatos can manipulate temporal space for single seconds at a time. This ability is purely physical and close quarters, involving the use of Foresight to properly work. He has tried to do such a thing at distance, but has found that is simply impossible. During a hand to hand encounter, Thanatos, at the expense of a pretty heft amount of stamina can freeze an opponent's’ body part in time to provide an opening to strike. The ability is completely untraceable if done correctly. The victim will simply believe that they left themselves open to assault, when it was Thanatos who, using his ability to see seconds into the future, froze time and created it. It’s extremely taxing if used back to back.

Just so staff know, I figure this character takes the place of any other "evil Goku". So Turles, Goku Black, etc.

I'll approve you while we get this move approved. Feel free to use the Move Approval topic rather than here if you wish. My questions/adjustments are ...

"Close quarters" is a little vague, could we get a rough distance? Within five feet of Than? Ten feet? 

I'm a bit iffy on the "completely untraceable" bit mainly cause of the logic. If my arm was frozen for a second, while I can see myself potentially not noticing it or putting it past myself, a skilled fighter would notice it, especially if done repeatedly. Obviously Insight would see right past it, so I'm discluding that, but I think it would be more fair to say that "The ability is difficult to trace if done correctly, especially on characters with low TEC.". We should also say that "The effect will be gradually lessened on characters with higher TEC than Thanatos, to the point where it is completely useless on characters with quadruple his TEC." because I'm of the belief that all attacks should scale to stats - Diablo ain't gettin' frozen for nobody. It's pretty lenient though, because 1 second isn't much to begin with and it's appropriately downsided, so that limitation isn't going to affect many people besides your Diablos and your Emperor Palpatines.

Roster incoming.

Temporal Bubble: 

Whatever happened when the Vegito fusion failed is unknown. However, it is known that Thanatos can manipulate temporal space for single seconds at a time. This ability is purely physical and close quarters, involving the use of Foresight to properly work. He has tried to do such a thing at distance, but has found that is simply impossible. Anything passed an arms reach fizzles.  During a hand to hand encounter, Thanatos, at the expense of a pretty hefty amount of stamina can freeze an opponent's’ body part in time to provide an opening to strike. The ability is difficult to trace if done correctly. The victim will simply believe that they left themselves open to assault, when it was Thanatos who, using his ability to see seconds into the future, froze time and created it. It’s extremely taxing if used back to back. The effect gradually lessens on people with greater TEC to the point where the opponent realizes what is going on and either breaks free or corrects the opening, eventually culminating to just simply fizzling on targets too strong to manipulate.
