Custom Technique Approval

[Carter]

I'd say if they had telepathy they could fight back, otherwise they are just kinda stuck trying to figure out if Carter attacked or if they just "imagined" it.

So.. with Telepathy yea they can fight back against it.

Also its not something Carter can just repeatativly use.. it takes focus, the more focus the more serious it is, so the less focus the less serious it is. Its more of a fient(sp?) unless Carter dedicates to it.

[Orion]

With the obvious need for Telepathy, 25.

.... what if it just works on the ground?

That custom tech will not work in any form. It is not allowed.

I have a similar focused Empathy power that was priced at 20 XP a year and a half ago, and it even had a drawback not present in Mal's version. Just curious if the price had deflated over time, I suppose.

Anyway, here, I'mma throw some stuff out.

Empathic Aura: An outgrowth of her empathic powers, Piper can project emotions onto those around her, whether they be positive (confidence, joy, etc.) or negative (fear, dread, etc.). Prolonged exposure may make the emotions linger after the exposure ceases. In some cases, the person may not even know the confidence or dread they feel is not their own, prompting the projected emotions to become the target's actual emotional mindset. This ability requires more focus than her base empathic power, and strong-willed individuals can resist the effects if they chose to do so.

Ki Wings: While in her ascended state (ie, Tier 1), Piper exhibits large, white wings made of energy. These wings allow her to levitate and fly. They can also be used as bludgeoning weapons and can be used to kick up concussive gusts of wind to knock weaker foes away or stagger/irritate stronger opponents.

Ki Net –
Piper begins this attack by firing a volley of energy bolts at his foe—missing with every single one. Instead of exploding, these projectiles freeze in proximity to the target, and with a quick motion, all of the attacks converge on the target in question. The more projectiles Piper is able to throw, the more cataclysmic the final attack contains. This attack is great for unloading upon a stronger opponent, but the energy and finesse it takes makes it fruitless to use on weaker opponents who can be dispatched with less-taxing attacks.

[Ander]

X-Ray Vision - Ander can see through solid objects, such as walls, doors, boxes, clothes, skin, and other such things. He also has a level of control that allows him to focus on specific "layers," such as being able to just see what is in someone's pocket, rather than all the way through. It does, however, have several limitations. It cannot be used to penetrate incredibly dense materials, such as lead or bone, and only penetrates as far as he can see with his normal eyesight. It also cannot penetrate ki of any form (for instance, a wall or coating of energy), or see anyone who is using Stealth. Basically, it only works as an upgrade of regular vision.

[Oahun]

"Shiyuchuju":Harmonize - Oahun can extend his Namekian hearing or sight by applying ki to his senses. He must have complete focus when using this ability due to the complexity of hearing or seeing many things simultaneously, but it will allow him to pinpoint particular sounds at very great distances. If Oahun were to use Telepathy, he would be able to act as a guide to slower fighters in pinpointing incredibly fast movements, but would be unable to participate in the actual battle due to the level of intense concentration.

[Orion]

How far is "very great distances?" A mile? Less than that?

Also, the second part of your description "he would be able to act as a guide to slower fighters in pinpointing incredibly fast movements, but would be unable to participate in the actual battle due to the level of intense concentration" is more or less the same ability as Foresight, which we couldn't allow. Correct me if I read it wrong.

[Shou]

Just a couple

Kienzan Boxcutter: For those times when shanking is meant to lack subtlety, please crowds, or neuter. By channeling his psychokinesis Shou can mold his ki into a form with an acute, puncturing edge. This is normally just a tapering edge of psionic potency that encases his fist, but it also has the capacity to take the form of daggers—which can be hurled and controlled via Psychokinesis.

Hat Trick: Like pulling a Rabbit out of a Hat. By bending time and space Shou can create a wormhole for his personal intent (feigning and flanking melee/ki attacks, grabbing the remote, etc.) and purposes. It's invisible and works to his advantage, so it would be difficult for an opponent to use it against him—but if they can grab his hand or something when he attempts to slap them around more power to them.

Bangkok Bang: A fistful of Aww FXck. A highly capable, Psycho-fueled, head-rattling suckerpunch. Kinetic energy on steroids explodes from fist-to-face and delivers its entirety into the point of contact. It works by shoving a ton of kinetic energy into the targets body (it can be applied from any point on Shou's body to any point on the opponents body with same result, Shou just prefers punching people in the face) that tries to escape by traveling up the nervous system to the head. End result, a fistful of Aww FXck.

Eff Off: For situations involving aggy ex-girlfriends, twix bars, and subpoenas. Shou takes very little time to execute this technique, which he has no specific pre-requisite to perform. A pulse of psychokinetic energy expels from the stunning, young demisaiya-jin—good for knocking back crowds at the tavern, deflecting ki-based attacks, and leaving a perfect sphere inside of houses.

Wave Off: For emergency use only. A step up (despite its nonchalant execution) from Eff Off on the Richter Scale. An unseen psychokinetic wall indiscriminately smashes projectiles and people, taking an even greater toll than much of his movepool. Although unseen it will leave a forty-seven-foot indentation of a hand in the earth if Shou were to ever slam it into the ground. 1 PP per usage.

I'll go ahead and drop the in-battle thing then. I really just tagged that on as an extra use for the ability. I suppose it does act as a form of foresight, even though Oahun himself wouldn't be able to capatilize upon it and it could potentially help two fighters overcome a stronger one. I.E Piccolo/Goku vs Raditz or something in that respect. It would also leave him completely vulnerable.

I'd say a mile at least for the first ability though, since he has to focus at intense levels and is left otherwise useless. This ability would be used for out of combat RP uses. I'd also say he can listen further if he focuses on particular targets, much in the same way Kaiou listens to things occurring through different dimensions and across galaxies. Obviously not nearly as powerful though.

As far as sigh goes, something akin to an eagle, the higher up he is, the farther he'll see a specific target.

[Psyren]

I dont see the similarity in the move compared to foresight. The way I read his description was like this

He basicaly can see the fast movements as their happening. Like piccolo did for gohan during the saiyan saga until gohan could see it himself. Foresight is the ability to see things before they even happen. I beleive he is trying to say that his character would be able to see a fighter moving at a higher rate of speed and be like " HES OVER THERE AIM THAT WAY!!" Not "Hey he is about to appear here and do this so be ready to get him right there in like 2 minutes "

Im no mod but im just tossing in my two cents on it.

Your Empathy has more utility thus the higher price.

Thats basically what I had in mind for the combat portion.

I had this tech in mind along the same effects as another from a while back. Let me know if I have to reword it, but its pretty much a really, really strong punch. Supposed to be at least 75 me thinks

Oh right.

My bad. I lost the original pricing. I put it at 60 originally.

If that's the case, then it isn't needed in the move description. Oahun can perform that as long as he has Telepathy.

Harmonise (it's not a misspelling, it's Australian spelling >=o!) - 14xp

[James]

One measly one this time 'round.

Analyze - With an acute attention to details scaling down to the wrinkles of the skin about the face and body, James can accurately distinguish characteristics, body language and even, given enough time, entire personalities and past dialogues spoken by an individual. This comes from a subconscious level of awareness that provides data in the form of muscle memory into various points throughout his body, enabling a type of record-keeping. These record themselves as "codes" on his subconscious data bank which can then be later accessed to induce a state of euphoria where James is capable of temporarily losing himself in the personality, taking on its aspects as though he were the individual themselves.

[Psyren]

Halloween - Psyren use's his psychokinesis to empower a puppet named "Halloween." Halloween appears as a two foot tall marionette with a jack o lantern for a head. Psyren simply stand's back and allows the puppet to fight for him. The small puppet is fast and appears to have a mind of its own. Its main attack is latching onto the enemy and discharging all of the Psychokinetic energy Psyren is sending it in one explosion. Upon releasing the energy Halloween disappears in a puff of smoke. Psyren can then re-summon him but he cant be used for a attack for two full posts.

*note- Halloween has no power of his own. He is basically a moving bomb and can be destroyed easily.

[Orion]

Is Halloween a custom version of Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack that Gotenks does?

I honestly didnt think of it like that but...yeah thats basically exactly what it is LOL Wow orion...So yeah basically yeah
