[Vad]

Armored Core:

While Metal Defense can create shields to block incoming attacks on the fly, it isn't reliable all the time. By seeping liquid steel under his skin Vad coats his muscles. This layer of liquid metal remains fluid until struck when it hardens into solid metal. In order to keep this metal liquid Vad must suffer a constant drain to his energy. To avoid injury as soon as the section of used metal hardens and the blow stopped or reduced it dissipates and is expended in the form of additional used energy. Only one layer can be made and it cannot be repaired. It must be used completely or removed entirely before it can be remade. The time to remove it is quick, but to reform it during combat is stupid and leaves Vad exposed as he needs to channel his energy into carefully coating his muscles.
