HECATE  UCHIHA HAND OF JASHIN From the moment she had landed the place was hers to command. Just her huntress aura was the stuff of nightmare and the haunting glow that spilled out of her mask made the ground seem alive with pulsations in the night. Groceries on the ground, the poor lost soul. He'd be in a better place soon. She just thought he was steeling himself for the fight and didn't even notice the change in demeanor till he spoke back and she nodded. "Wont need it where you're going." She breathed out through the mask, starting towards him. A sonic boom erupted and her image remained but she arced around him to his left, soul reaching out when her foot landed to snap around him once on his right, circling him in a violent twist to leave him unsure where the attack came from only to bring twenty meters of wire crashing down on his general vicinity in a writhing mass, attempting to snare him in the violent knot of hot metal wires. Being caught made him subject to a struggle if he wished to be free. Being a Tai Master and a Large creature put him at a horrendous disadvantage and a full capture would leave him.. well.. rather vulnerable.

Svayam was not as easily frightened as his counterpart, but even he was wary of this person on closer inspection. Power seemed to emanate from her, and Svayam changed his stance, stabbing the spear into the ground and releasing it, as he let his chakra ripple through both of his arms. Wont need it where you're going." She breathed out through the mask, starting towards him. Svayam's eyes narrowed at the threat, and he prepared himself for her attack. He had expected it to come fast, but her after image technique gave him pause. His eyes darted around to acquire the blur of motion that was his enemy, and instead he caught the glint of steel fluttering through the air around him. A mesh of wires that surrounded him quite completely, and he knew as a certainty that there was no escaping this deathtrap. But he didn't have to. Svyam crouched in response and lifted both his arms up, his spear in front of him, and transformed the two limbs into shields, triangular, black and smooth. They were slightly curved to lock together around him and above him too, with enough space in the top for his spear to poke out. The shell's smoothness and tautness to the ground should keep him safe from the ensnaring, Svayam presumed, and find itself wound only around the end of the spear. Svayam needed to think of a way to retaliate, and quickly, as he was sure his assailant would strike with that scythe in a few moments. He would begin to sing a warbling tone, eerie and haunting, inside his cocoon. His chakra would roil in response to the notes, and after a few moments (9 weaves), a thick, eerie cloud would begin to pour from the top of the shell, and fill the area for as far as she could see; and as far as she could see would be two meters at most.

HECATE  UCHIHA HAND OF JASHIN Feeling her nostrils flare when she hit the top of the shield dome she grit her teeth and glowered slightly. "Don't be a FUCKING PUSSY AND DIE WITH SOME GODDAMN DIGNITY!" She was trying to send him to an afterlife he didn't even DESERVE! SHE deserved to be with Jashin and she was onlly here to do his eternal bidding till he finally said she could put down the scythe and come home at long last. And here he was standing in her way. Black smoke started to billow out and the top but she didn't have time to worry about it. It it burned, if it blistered she'd make a point to fuck him up for it later and grappled the ENTIRETY of his dome to lift him out of the ground. He'd need to win a strength check against her to break free (A fortitude roll I think if you want to attempt) and lifted him with the absolute intent of ripping his dome out of the ground and flinging him into the air. Unsure of how his technique worked she didn't hear any crunching when he formed his shield and assumed that beneath him was vulnerable. Presuming she'd win this strength check her simple objective was to rip him right out of the ground, throw him a meter into the air and grab his legs with the wires to slam him back into the ground. Committing even if it was a FULL domed shield she'd simply snare it completely, wrapping him in wires and attempting to slam him into the ground with a S ranks wire powered sling.

[Defiant]

The woman's roar echoed through the boy's chamber, and he braced himself for the expected attack. He didn't expect, however, to feel himself being lifted straight off the ground. "What the fuck!?" Svyam exclaimed in panic as his legs were suddenly exposed. Her guess had been right on the mark and both arm-shields were only large enough to defend his upper body, leaving his lower body vulnerable. He tried to separate the dome while he was in her grasp but it was unyielding, even as he shifted his right arm back to it's 'natural' form her hands still found their grip around his forearm and managed to throw him, flailing, into the air. He was free, if only for a moment, and he used that precious instant to gather his bearings and discern up from down. He had intended to attack, but she was so fast, maybe twice his speed or even more and in the time it took to understand where the ground was, he was being propelled towards it. It was all he could do to put his left side between him and the approaching floor, using his shield arm to absorb the majority of the shock of the crash. Cracks spider-webbed across the surface, and blood poured from the fissures, streaking the solid black with crimson. Svayam rolled off of his shield and onto his stomach. He was prone now, and bound by the legs. He looked behind him and saw the specter standing over like a vision of death itself. 'Fuck!' Svayam's head filled with the bubbling panic that had overwhelmed Elric just a few moments earlier, but while his counterpart's was a will to flee, Svayam's was all rage. Svayam turned into an animal, rolling onto his back, using his left hand to place the ruined remains of his bloody shield between himself and the assailant and used his right to struggle wildly with the wire around his legs, snarling all the while. His skin blackened, and hardened, his face lost it's human features and slowly turned into an armored, demonic visage. It took a movement for him to realize that it would be hopeless to try and free himself from his bonds, and so he instead chose to lunge at the woman, shield leading, hoping to get in close enough to rend her with his claws. He roared as he flew at her, thrusting the damaged and bloody shield towards her. Shield (50TP)(10TP)(10TP)(10TP) Rank: "B" + "C" Skill: Supplementary Effect: The Shield is one of the defensive powers that completely nullifies oncoming physical damage that hits the shield. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: Picture: Picture Unlike the Armor, Shield completely nullifies damage instead of merely reducing it, though only attacks directed to the front where it makes contact with the shield. When using Shield, a large amount of biomass is shifted to the user's arm, molding it into a nigh-impenetrable black-biomass shield. Unlike Armour, mobility is not hindered when the Shield is active. The Shield blocks all incoming frontal projectile fire, or all-round melee attacks, until its damage threshold is reached, at which point it will shatter and require time to regenerate before it can be deployed again (2 round wait period). When first learned the user is able to withstand 60 Points worth of Damage. Each time learned ("C" Rank Training) the Shield gains strength of additional 40 Points. If the user knows Armour, half of the Armour Hardness is automatically applied to Shield. Limit: Must be a Protean. Must know Partial Transformation. Armour (10TP) Rank: "D", "C", "B", "A", "S" Skill: Supplementary Effect: While in this form, they take less damage, but the added density results in loss of movement speed and overall agility. Special: --- Drawback: The user loses 3 movements while in Armour. Armour disables the ability to Glide. Description: Picture: Picture: Picture When used a large amount of biomass is shifted throughout the body of the user, molding it into a protective suit of black-biomass armour. The Armour is considered one of the best defenses for a Protean. While in this form, the user takes less damage, but the added density results in loss of movement, speed, and overall agility. Unlike the Shield, which completely negates minor frontal damage at the cost of having a temporarily finite ability to absorb punishment, the Armour significantly reduces all-round damage taken by the user without losing effectiveness. A technique that is ideal for close combat, allowing the user to go toe to toe with the strongest foes without quickly succumbing to large amounts of damage. When first learned this technique gives the Armour a hardness of a 10 against all Damage. Each time learned the hardness of the Armour increases by 5 giving a max of a Hardness 30 at "S" Rank. Limit: Must be a Protean. Must know Full Body Transformation. Four Legs Technique (10TP) Rank: "C" Skill: NinJutsu Effect: This technique grants animal-like accelerated fighting instinct and reflexes to the user. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: A personal technique. Duration is 5 rounds per Class Level. The user’s feature become more feral and they become more beast than man. A simple stare from the predator has become enough to instill fear in the heart of their enemy. For the duration of this technique, the user gain a claw and bite attack that deals damage equal to 2 per Class Level. They also gain a +20 enhancement bonus to Intimidation. In addition, the user now gains +3 enhancement bonus to Movements for the duration of the technique. If the user falls unconscious, the transformation is dispelled. Limit: Must be an Inuzuka member.

HECATE  UCHIHA HAND OF JASHIN BINGO! There was a soft spot in every defense and so she lived by the teaching. Offense was the best defense. He was a durable little fucker though and when he hit the ground he hit it hard enough to really do a number on himself. Tsk tsk, poor bastard. Undeserving of this mercy killing but by the damned gods would she deliver it to him. Resistance was heavy and she saw him getting wild, snarling, tugging at the ropes, his whole demeanor and appearance changing to something much more confrontational. "Yes! YES!" she screamed at him, beckoning with both hands! She wanted to feel alive again! how her that the mission still had purpose! The limb molding and shaping was so different and unique! It made her mouth water thinking about how rich his blood must taste.. That lapse in battlefield awareness got her a faceful of blunt shield smashing into her full force, enough to whip her head back but no blood. Not yet. Actually. Not her blood anyways. He'd have to work for that. Seeing glimmer of blood on his shield made her eyes burn bright behind the mask that his her features and made her this manic monster and she'd ripped that mask off to expose her face for the blow in question, accepting a mouthful of that coppery life energy. Like a dog to a water dish she swallowed greedily and in exchange for the generous donation nimble fingers flicked the wires which went slack in response to her touch and she gave him a rather pointed shove. "Cmon now pretty boy~" she cooed, tossing her gasmask to the side and slapping her cheek till it reddened, jutting it out at him. "You want one? Take it. C'mon, hit me." He better make it worthwhile. she didn't hand them out often. She might have to take matters into her own hands. Untangle Tech used.

[Defiant]

Svayam stumbled back a step at her shove, and was surprised to find his legs freed. She exposed her face, and he found it equally horrible as her mask. If he could, he would have commented on it. He would have been able to see that this was clearly a bait, and he was about to hopelessly fall into a trap. But he was lost in adrenaline and animal instincts, and all he could see was the exposed throat of his enemy, ripe to be bitten into. All he could see was how his shield bash had worked, despite the odds, and the tides of victory turning in his favor. His chakra flared around his right arm, and before he moved, fire was streaming and growing around his hand. He roared and pulled his right arm back for the most devastating swing he could muster. His horn flared into a blistering golden light, his arm quickly shone the same with the coming, and rapidly expanding claw. The thing was covered in the same black, chitinous material that the rest of him was now covered in, but when the moment came to loose his attack upon her, light erupted from between the scales, and his fingers grew, sharpening into black daggers. He swung upwards with as much power behind his attack as he could muster and let fly a devastating slash laced with flame. His plan didn't go much farther than throwing as much weight into his attack as he could, and he planned on simply wailing on her with all his might for as long as he could. If he had been able to step back, he would have been able to laugh at the most literal 'upper cut' anyone has ever preformed. He felt the thing begin it's protest, but he forced it down, silencing and Dominating the ancient chakra that was in his arm. At the end of his uppercut, he spun his hand and brought the claw straight back down, aiming to slash her twice with the epic thing his arm had, in the blink of an eye, become. OkAY So....

Binding (Right Arm) (80TP) Rank: "B" Skill: Supplementary Effect: By taking a massive amount of surging nature chakra the Protean sacrifices their arm to gain extraordinary power. Special: --- Drawback: Only applied to 1 arm. Description: PictureUser chooses 1 arm (or Leg). The Protean has bound some form of Nature Chakra into an arm. The Nature Chakra works with the bloodline of the Protean giving a surge of power. The arm functions as a normal arm unless specially noted. The user binds either an "evil" or "good" aligned force into their Arm. This does not need to reflect the Protean's alignment. Regardless of the alignment of the power bound in the arm—nature chakra resents being bound there. Once these choices have been made they cannot be changed. The Godhand has 2 states; active and suppressed. A suppressed arm functions like a normal arm and considered as an "undrawn" weapon. It gains no benefits from being a Godarm in this state but the arm does not rebel. An active divine arm gains all the benefits for being a Godhand but the arm rebels at the start of each round. Activating and suppressing a Godhand takes the same movement as drawing or sheathing a weapon (allowing it to be used with Techniques like Quick Draw). When activating a Godhand, the Godhand can have any Godhand Powers they know and wishes active upon activating it. The arm has a very distinctive and clearly divine appearance reflecting the nature of the arm. It is often larger than the other arm, creating a visible asymmetry in the godhand’s silhouette. As they progress in Class Levels it becomes more lavish, much larger, and far more difficult to hide. It takes a Difficulty 20 + 10 per Class Level Disguise check to disguise its appearance from a casual observer. A suppressed Godhand reduces the check by 20 + 5 per Class Level. A divine arm radiates an aura of the alignment of the power sealed within it, though this is clearly separate from the Protean’s own. Limit: Must be a Protean. Power Attack (60TP) Rank: "B" Skill: TaiJutsu Effect: User can make exceptionally deadly melee attacks by sacrificing attacks for strength. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: User can choose to take a -1 penalty to movements and saves against TaiJutsu Attacks to gain a +20 bonus on their next Melee Attack Damage. This bonus to damage is increased by half (+50%) if the user is making an attack with a 2-handed weapon, or a 1-handed weapon using 2 hands. When the user's base Movements reaches 4, the bonus increases by +10. The bonus damage does not apply to touch attacks, or effects that do not deal Armour Point damage. User must choose to sacrifice the movements and perform the attack before their next turn. At "C" Class, user gains a +10 bonus on Attack Damage to Critical Strikes when using Power Attack. At "A" Class, user gains a +10 bonus on Attack Damage to Critical Strikes when using Power Attack. Limit: Universal TaiJutsu Technique. Quick Draw (10TP) Rank: "C" Skill: TaiJutsu/Supplementary Effect: User has learned how to draw their weapon without taking up a movement. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: The user can draw a weapon without a movement. The user can draw a hidden weapon (With Sleight of Hand) without taking a movement. A user who has this technique may draw a throwing weapon and hurl the weapon within 1 movement. Without this technique, the user may draw a weapon as a movement. Limit: Universal TaiJutsu Technique. God's Hand (80TP) Rank: "B" Skill: Supplementary Effect: Protean gets to use Improved and Greater Unarmed Strike with their Godhand while bypassing specific Damage Reduction.
