Switching to New Best Moves

[Ander]

Kirano and Violet, both good.

[Kazuya]

For my 8th, I'd like:

Halo

As a form of defense, Violet throws up a arc of energy around her, which reduces the chance of her getting hit. This is a one time use only move that once someone has touched the energy, it dissolves, leaving room for a quick rebound on either party's part. This move causes minor damage to both the user and attacker from the explosion of energy after the bubble has been touched.


9th, Chi Bonds

The user creates a narrow strip of ki and cuffs it around small appendages to trap the victim long enough to escape. If the user is wearing metal, or other conductive material, this move cannot work. This form of entrapment can be broken by blocking off your own ki (As this move is responsive to it, sort of like oxygen and fire, if you cut the oxygen off, you kill the fire.) long enough for the bonds to dissolve. In addition, the victim can alternately just wait a few seconds and it will break on its own. This technique is more of a stalling move in order to escape an attack, or slow the victim down.

[Celena]

Guys, remember to -10 from these boys and girls stored.

[Kazuya]

I have 15 best move slots, lol. I've only used 7 so far.

[Ander]

Both fine.

[Ander]

Haven't used any of my five, so here are two, with the other three being on hold.


Gunslinger

Inspired by his proficiency with a firearm, Bardock adapted the basic principles into a technique. This attack comes in one of two forms: pistol, or shotgun. For “pistol,” Bardock simply calls out ‘pistol’ and forms a hand in the shape of a gun, and runs energy to the tip of his index finger, ‘firing’ it by curling his thumb like a trigger and expelling a small bullet of energy. In this form, the attack is faster and can be used quickly and repeatedly, but doesn’t pack as much punch. For “shotgun,” he calls out ‘shotgun’ and forms a hand into a fist, and wraps the other hand around his wrist. The second hand pumps the arm as if it was the actual firearm, and a large, powerful shell of ki is fired from the fist. The arm must be pumped after every shell in order to “reload.” In this form, the attack is much stronger, but cannot be used in rapid succession, as it takes time for the large amount of energy required to be gathered.


Detonator

Bardock forms a sphere of energy and throws it into the air, leaving his hand open after releasing. Once Bar closes the hand from which it was fired into a fist, the energy sphere will stop in its tracks, becoming a bomb. At any time after the ball has stopped, when the fighter snaps his fingers, it will explode like a remote mine. Multiple ki bombs can be used, although Bardock must manage each attack in the order of succession, and also the hand from which they were fired. For example, if three bombs were launched from his left hand, he would have to stop each one individually by closing his left hand three times, and they would explode one by one each time he snapped his fingers. If he launched one from his left hand and one from his right hand, the left hand would control one and the right hand would control the other. It can become very tricky the more he uses at once, so it is best used as a singular surprise attack. The two downsides are that he cannot control the bombs once they leave his hand, so he must use careful speed and aim, and they will also explode upon touching anything, rendering the delayed detonation effect useless.

[Android-18]

Just need approval.

Starburst – Using her newfound innocence and happiness, the android summons forth her innate power from deep within to form within an outstretched hand. The fingers must be aligned vertically with the palm facing the target. She will focus as little or as much power as she needs into the attack creating a white orb just barely an inch from her fleshy palm. The sphere will grow in size depending on the energy pushed into it. Once it is sufficient the girl will let it loose, whilst energy snakes from her palm behind it like an asteroids tale. The glittering mass of light and energy will connect with the target causing a very extravagant display of luminosity and energy. The attack will seem very much like a firework, sometimes taking on a tinge of color. The move will finish similar to that of a black hole, all of the light and energy will suck forth like a vacuum and disappear all at once. If the target is weak he, too, will disappear. If he is strong (aka a PC) he will feel disorientated for a short period of time, as if his own power had been zapped away, although it has not.

Inferno – Everyone feels hatred at one point or another. It is that angry furious feeling that swells up in the pit of the stomach, which is what this power is drawn from. This attack is used when the android is particularly not happy with the situation or the target. She will raise both of her hands upward with the fingers pointing vertically and her elbows slightly bent with the hands at slight angles to each other. Crimson will bleed from her palms, the energy will fluctuate as if it is actually blood and it will seep to the earth below. The glimmering energy will disappear from that point on, and in moments it will snake out of the ground underneath the victim. The blood red life-force will burst upwards like tendrils and snap around the form of the enemy, its touch will be like fire ripping at flesh. It will burn as the light and energy will slowly seep into the target forming a pillar of light right at his center and dissipate in an array of particles that will flutter lifelessly to the ground like apple blossoms. The attack will cause the victim to feel as if they have second degree burns, although there will be no apart damage to them, and the attack is not fire but pure ki energy. A sick numb feeling will sit in their stomach, but the whole affect will only last depending on the strength of the target. If they are weak it will last for up to a day, while stronger fighters will only feel the affects for upwards of 15 minuets.

[Juno]

Making sure all my moves from the old days plus one new one that I bought.

Moon Dagger - Named for the group of assassins that Zangya had once worked for, using this technique, the Ader charges her crescent-moon-shaped dagger with her chi, and then swipes it in mid-air, sending crescent shaped slices of energy at her foe. The slices can cause either knock back, or, very rarely, cuts in the enemy. Zangya prefers this technique over many, and uses it frequently when she is in possession of her weapon.

Lady's Vision - This technique is another that Zangya likes - using it, she can use her eyes to lock onto a target, and then send a beam of chi from each eye which is powerful enough to slice through the strongest mountain and knock back the strongest warriors. This technique is Very useful when the opponent or target is unaware of Zangya's presence or unsuspecting of an attack. This is one of Zangya's moves, but if she overuses it, then she cannot control the direction of the eye beams.

Trap Shooter - A technique learned throughout her days with the mercenaries on Mercy-sei, Zangya uses this technique to conjure a large, emerald orb and then fire out of that larger orb several smaller jade orbs of energy, which then close in on her foe and home in on them, causing a near inescapable explosive effect which causes severe knock back. Zangya has recently discovered how to control the paths of these chi blasts, and so she can fire them at multiple opponents at once.

Armor of Screams - Zangya learned this move during the invasion of the Old Kingdom Pantheon. Amun-Ra-Horakhty bestowed it upon her when she was named Goddess of Fear, and it works in tandem with her ability to know what an opponent's greatest fear is at that particular time. Once she learns of their fear, Zangya can conjure a forcefield of black ki which takes the shape of that said fear; this shield is very powerful in a psychological sense, but in truth, it does not take much for it to be broken if attacked.

Solitude - Zangya has the ability to take her ki, and shape it to her will, like most fighters. However, Zangya uses this ability to her advantage with this technique -- using it, she can conjure up a "ki cage" and surround her opponent with it. The ki cage uses Zangya's ki in an attempt to 'imprison' the opponent. The cage's weakness is not easy to find, but it is that the top of the cage is completely harmless. Every other part will shock you if you try to escape.

EDIT: Just for clarification, in "Solitude," when I say shock, I am referring to the feeling the person gets. It is in no way electrical, and I do not believe it needs Raikinesis.

[Orion]

Focus Beam: An attack Orion has been experimenting with for years. It is simply performed, but if utilised in the correct situation, can be amazingly useful.

Orion aims both hands forward and yells the attack's name. A blue beam of energy fires forth, but looks rather unimpressive. In its original form, the energy wave does little more than a normal ki blast would. However, that is not where its strength lies.

If the beam connects with another energy beam, heavy object or something moving at high velocity, the Focus Beam becomes stronger. The greater the resistance, the higher the increase in power of the blast. This can be lifesaving if a powerful finishing attack is coming for Orion, or if he needs to stop a fast object quickly without blowing it up.

[Juno]

Since, apparently, I have six best move slots, here's another one just for the fun of it:

Indiana Zangya - This technique is inspired by the all-new Indiana Jones movie, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Using this move, Zangya harnesses her ki to make a 'ki whip' and proceeds to use it like a real whip, only with it being able to cause more pain that the real thing. She cannot, however, do the cool Indiana Jones moves where he swings from place to place with it like Spiderman uses webslings. If it touches anything other than organic material, it dissipates and Zangya is injured slightly.

[Ander]

Zangya: Your moves are fine. For "Solitude," clarify in the description that 'shock' has nothing to do with electricity, or use a different word, like 'stun' or 'astonish.' Also, remove the movie plug for "Indiana Zangya" or change it to 'inspired by Indiana Jones' or something.

Orion: Focus Beam needs some kind of weakness, or clarify if you mean it as a defensive move.

[Orion]

OK. This is added:

Although this blast can gradually overpower nearly any energy/object, it does no physical damage. If a sentient being is struck by the wave, it does nothing unless the Focus Beam was particularly powerful; even then they are only stunned for a moment.

[Ander]

Works for me.

[Hellfighter 17]

Alright. Returning, all with some old moves. 11 down to 5!

Renzoku Chain
Seventeen gathers a large amount of energy, and then uses the summoned ki to extend out of one hand in the shape of normal ki blasts, but they are connected. The hell fighter can use this to take ahold of the opponent and also inanimate objects. Once formed completely, Seventeen may change the appearance of the ki blasts that make up the chain, but this just uses more energy. The length of the chain can vary with the amount of power put towards it.

Golden Rod
Seventeen uses his ki to transform it into a staff, or rod, whichever you please to call it. The length is determined by how much energy is put forth into this object. Though it is made of ki, it can withstand anything as long as the energy is put into it. Plus, only the creator of the individual rod can handle it and touch it, for the ki signature is specifically designed for them, so it hurts when it comes in contacts with a foreign ki signature. This, however, means that other androids can use it.

Spores
By simply concentrating immensely upon an orb of ki, Seventeen can place a form of 'detonator' within it. He then slowly throws it into the battlefield, and once he chooses that it has gone far enough, the blast detonates and it turns into tiny spores that litter the battlefield, and the amount varies on how much energy was placed into the orb. Anybody that touches a spore causes it to explode, and the spores will stay in their place once the initial blast's addition in velocity to them has worn off, which could mean never in the emptiness of space. The spores will affect anyone with a ki signature.

Hell's Cannons
It could be viewed as a crude maneuver, but it appears quite effective. A Gatling gun appears out of either of the hell fighter's arms, maybe both if he has the energy to expend. When they are activated, instead of bullets racing out, ki shoots out, appearing as lasers. Each individual beam is not very strong, but together they can be useful tools.

Energy Limpet
Using this attack, Seventeen can create small (hand-sized), glowing translucent beings called 'energy limpets', who feed off of biological and electrical energy. These ki-created creatures, once attached to an opponent, will cling on and not let go. At first they seem to just be a nuisance, but left uninterrupted they will suck the life out of an opponent. The amount of energy they drain is incremental, but the more limpets that are attached, the faster the opponent loses power. The limpets will explode if they gather enough energy.

[Piper Juunanagou]

The first four are approved Hellfighter, but I'm going to have to deny the last one. Being as I had an attack that functioned similarly and I was denied. (I believe I was told I needed venomous ki or something like that)

[Hellfighter 17]

Al'ighty, then.

Renzoku Shock
Seventeen stores up energy until just right, and then rapidly thrusts his hands forward, multiple times a second. The nearest solid surface that his hands are directed at will start to have fairly large explosions in them, although not too big. However, they can overlap, creating an exponential effect if done just right.

[Piper Juunanagou]

*thumbs up*

[Jinpo]

2 of 7 Best Moves:

Kakusandan – This ki wave looks similar to an ordinary wave, but Jinpo has the power to control the beams after they are fired. He can split up/combine the wave into as many beams as he likes. Also, he can control the direction.

Ki Monocle – Jinpo starts this attack by forming a circle with either hand (or both) by having all of his fingers touch his thumb. He then places the hand over his eye , to serve as an aiming reticle. He then begins to charge a translucent blue energy inside the circle. This strength of the energy wave depends on how long it is charged. Jinpo triggers the release of the ki by blinking (if he wants to be stealthy) or yelling out the name of the attack (if he is feeling flamboyant).

*NOTE* This beam has a piercing quality similar to Special Beam Cannon.

[Kazuya]

These do have weaknesses, right? Other than that *thumbs up*

I'll add them once you create a character Vault.

[Alexander Trafford]

(I only have 5 move slots, the first four are replicas, with some minor word changes, Counter measure is the only new move)

Hellfire Annihilation-
Minoshia opens up his body, stretching his arms and legs into a 5 star sort of look. His body becomes incrimsoned in his Kaioken energy, as the boost in energy this technique gives him is mandatory to perform the attack. The ground splits below the feet of the floating Konat, who proceeds to descend into the blazing fires exiting the earth's wound. Inside Hell, Minoshia calls for Dabura, his teacher while he was stuck in the demon world. Minoshia bursts back from the crevice, the spirit of hell inside him, emblazoned by the fires of hell itself. All of his energy is released from the massive flames around him, hundreds of missiles launching themselves from his body. Ki Mortars erupt from the crevice at his feet, raining into the air and descending on the person/group Minoshia is attacking. The Sky is completely filled with Fiery Ki cascading onto the foe. After the attack is completed, Minoshia falls into a state of no energy while he recovers. The Crevice closes as the Demons from the underworld can be heard cackling. This is purely a finisher.

Titan Shine-
Minoshia presses all his fingers, and thumbs together, his elbows straight out from the circular shape of fingers and palms. The Konatsa-jin warrior begins to create a tightly compacted energy ball in the space, quickly turning the filmy color of titanium. After the ball is created, Minoshia let's one hand off the ball and palms it in the other. The ball is lobbed into the sky, where it explodes above the head of the opponent. Dozens of small missiles of the original blast part and home in on the opponent, crashing into his body with incredible force.

Dark Shine Grenades-
Minoshia pulls his arms back and cocks them, then rapidly pumps them in succession launching a barrage of hundreds of energy balls. The balls of energy are not meant to strike an airborne opponent; instead they will land on, or around a grounded opponent. Every ball that connects with the ground creates a shockwave, where a wall waves out, then doubles back for a secondary explosion. These shock waves have the ability to cover large areas, thus making the attack a very dangerous one, as it will hit numerous times.

Night Runner-
Minoshia raises his index and middle finger of his right hand and touches his forehead. As he closes his eyes and concentrates deeply, dark shadows descend upon him from the sky, engulfing his body in a veil of darkness. The shadows acts as a coating, a layer of film, that reduces nearly all friction and gives Minoshia the maximum of his energy combined with the least of friction, uses little Ki and increases Speed greatly. In consequence, his ability to move at high speeds lowers his ability to react quickly enough to block attacks, and his defense is lowered.

Counter Measure-
Used as a defensive or diversionary tactic, this maneuver calls for Minoshia to release a barrage of small energy balls from his hands in an attempt to block, distract, prematurely explode or set a tracking attack off target. This can also be used in close range to distract his opponent (like close ranged flares) while he attacks from another angle.
