14 mission reward!

Arle & Little Arle
Bayobayo: Arle attempts to warp time around her foes to slow them down! This takes the form of a Wis vs Int roll. The opponent is afflicted with the slow status if they fail to beat Arle's roll, and if Arle beats their Int roll by a value of 6 or above, they are also stunned. 5 turn cooldown.

Valkyrie Arle
Consecrate: Arle unleashes a surge of holy energy into the ground around her, washing over everyone in the immediate area and temporarily turning it into holy ground. For a number of turns equal to her attack roll divided by five, or six for a natural 20, all enemies will be forced to roll CON against a flat value equal to 10+(Arle's Charisma Modifier) to avoid taking damage equal to 2+(2x Arle's Charisma Modifier) at the beginning of each turn. Because one cannot simply dodge an attack with such enormous coverage, this attack targets the CON stat. 6 turn cooldown. (Heavy Charisma Attack; Does 22% Damage)

[Mari]

16 mission reward.

Arle & Little Arle
Hiidon: This knockout spell drops an enemy with a blast of magic directly to the mind. It does no damage, but the victim is afflicted by the sleep status if successful. WIS vs INT

Valkyrie Arle
Guardian Stance: Arle picks a person to stand guard over for one turn, meaning an action must be spent each turn to maintain guardian stance. Any enemy that targets this person with an action of any nature provokes an attack of opportunity from Arle when doing so, allowing her to make an attack against them in retaliation on her next turn. These retaliation attacks cost one less action than normal, but only up to three of them can be made per turn.

18 mission reward

All
Holy Laser: Arle channels her force of personality into a divine laser that explosively impacts enemies. Because it's a laser, it's difficult to dodge. It's also very powerful but is quite draining as a result. This attack gains a +2 to its accuracy and has a 40% chance of inflicting Healing Suppression. 4 turn cooldown. (Heavy Cha Attack; Does 21% + Cha Mod Damage)

[Mari]

20 mission move! I'll be tapping Arle's Aphrodite's Passion twice to get the free move and to double up~

Love Magic: Explosive hearts, scalding rainbows, twirling ribbons and sparkles. The power of a magical girl is misleading in its harmless appearance. Defeat foes with the force of love! 1 turn cooldown. (Medium Cha Attack. Does 14% + 2x Cha Mod Damage)

Butt Slam: Arle attempts to butt slam a target to show them their place, squishing them underneath her. This attack will inflict the mini, mind-melted or infatuation status at Arle's discretion. Does double damage if Arle is giant or her enemy is mini. Arle experiences a -1 to her dodge roles on the following turn. Has a 3 turn cooldown. (Medium Wis Attack; Does 12% + 2x Cha Mod Damage)

Hip Bash: Arle hits someone with her hip and the target spontaneously explodes into hearts on contact with her. If someone attacks Arle from behind with a close-range attack or she gets thrown backward at another character she gets to use this attack on whomever that is as a free action. Additionally, it has a 30% chance of inflicting the infatuation status. Has a -2 accuracy penalty and a 2 turn cooldown. (Heavy Wis Attack; Does 18% + 2x Cha Mod Damage)

[Mari]

Arle ranked up! I'm giving her a new final smash, as well as reworking some of her old final smashes. Bayoen's finally getting nerfed into something more balanced and honestly probably funner to use.

Arle and Little Arle
Bayoen: Arle channels a greater summoning circle in the air before her. Upon completion of the spell the seal shatters, magical energy spilling out into the immediate area marked by the release of flowers. Anyone caught by the spell has all of their buffs dispelled and is then stunned for a follow-up attack. The follow-up attack is considered part of the final smash for the purposes of how it interacts with mechanics.

Heaven's Ray: A powerful beam of holy light drops from the sky, or the ceiling if applicable, onto a single target. This target is then consumed by the light and damaged for a massive 80% damage, but Arle's attacks have their cooldowns increased by 1 for 3 turns.

Resurrectia: This powerful healing spell is used to yank a target back from beyond the breach of death, bringing them back to life. It comes at a large cost, however, and thus All of Arle's attacks have their cooldowns increased by 1 for 3 turns. Although it's intended for bringing foes back to life, it's quite effective at healing those still among the living as well. Heals for 80% damage.

Valkyrie Arle
Seraphim Orb: Arle twists reality around herself to mold herself into the people's champion! For four turns all of her stats are buffed to match her charisma stat at all times and her charisma modifier is added as bonus damage to all her attacks, as well as damage resistance against all attacks aimed at her.

Heaven's Ray: A powerful beam of holy light drops from the sky, or the ceiling if applicable, onto a single target. This target is then consumed by the light and damaged for a massive 80% damage, but Arle's suffers 15% danage and a -2 dodge penalty on the following turn.

Resurrectia: This powerful healing spell is used to yank a target back from beyond the breach of death, bringing them back to life.

Although it's intended for bringing foes back to life, it's quite effective at healing those still among the living as well. Heals for 80% damage.

[Mari]

I'm doing maintenance! ...And then making everything worse! First off, Little Arle takes up way too much space for what is essentially Arle with a crit gimmick. Therefore, I shall be removing her full transformation and turning her into a special buff that basically does the same thing as followed:

Little Form: Arle experiences a nasty case of age regression! This involuntary 'buff' is a transformation for the purposes of mechanics and can therefore not be dispelled or interacted with. While active, Arle's Strength stat is decreased to 1 and those stats are added to her dexterity stat. Additionally, her wisdom modifier is decreased by 1 and her attacks do 3% less damage. However, if she naturally rolls within 2 of what would be a crit for a given attack, her attack ignores the 3% damage penalty of this buff and does 1.5x damage without the guaranteed hit that comes with an actual crit.



And replacing Little Arle? Battle Arle!

Battle Arle
Alternative Title: Rulue Cross Arle
With a combination of Ki learned through Rulue and Arle's magic, Arle can prove to be a formidable apprentice.

Discipline Stat Modifier Strength 15 +2 Dexterity 8 -1 Constitution 12 +1 Intelligence 15 +2 Wisdom 12 +1 Charisma 20 +5

Primary Attacks(11):

Rock Punch: Arle throws a powerful singular punch at an enemy! While not as powerful as the original outing, caution is still advised. It's named for the knockback it inflicts. (Medium STR Attack, Does 16%)

Wind Kick: Arle goes for a diagonal kick that goes as fast as the wind itself. This attack gains a +2 to its accuracy. (Medium Str Attack, Does 12%)

Madoken: Arle attacks by throwing concentrated magic and Ki! Takes the form of a single blast of blue'ish-white energy. Can be charged to perform the vacuum madoken instead, which gives grants a +2 to its accuracy but Arle suffers 3% damage in the process, even if the attack misses. Has a 2 turn cooldown. (Heavy Str Attack; Does 26% Damage)

Fire Destruction Wave: Arle combines fire magic and ki, unleashing a powerful fire laser similar to Rulue's Power Wave. Has a 50% Chance of burning. 3 turn cooldown (Heavy WIS Attack, Does 25%)

Ice Surge Fist: Arle launches a mass of icy ki and magic at the foe, striking them with great strength and blasting them with snow and ice in the process. Has a 30% chance to freeze the target. However, Arle takes 3% recoil damage. 1 turn cooldown. (Medium WIS attack; Does 22% Damage)

Thunder Surge Kick: Arle channels lightning through her body to drop kick a foe with all the power that entails. If the attack doesn't connect directly, the lighning will simply exit from her foot, potentially striking the opponent anyway. Has a 50% chance to paralyze and stuns on a natural roll of 16+, however Arle takes 3% recoil damage. 3 turn cooldown. (Heavy Str/Wis Attack; Does 26% Damage)

Power Strike: Arle puts all of her might on a haymaker. Suffers from -2 accuracy. 1 turn cooldown. (Heavy STR, 25% + Str mod)

Holy Laser: Arle channels her force of personality into a divine laser that explosively impacts enemies. Because it's a laser, it's difficult to dodge. It's also very powerful but is quite draining as a result. This attack gains a +2 to its accuracy and has a 40% chance of inflicting Healing Suppression. 4 turn cooldown. (Heavy Cha Attack; Does 21% + Cha Mod Damage)

Love Magic: Explosive hearts, scalding rainbows, twirling ribbons and sparkles. The power of a magical girl is misleading in its harmless appearance. Defeat foes with the force of love! 1 turn cooldown. (Medium Cha Attack. Does 14% + 2x Cha Mod Damage)

Butt Slam: Arle attempts to butt slam a target to show them their place, squishing them underneath her. This attack will inflict the mini, mind-melted or infatuation status at Arle's discretion. Does double damage if Arle is giant or her enemy is mini. Arle experiences a -1 to her dodge roles on the following turn. Has a 3 turn cooldown. (Medium Wis Attack; Does 8% + 2x Cha Mod Damage)

Hip Bash: Arle hits someone with her hip and the target spontaneously explodes into hearts on contact with her. If someone attacks Arle from behind with a close-range attack or she gets thrown backward at another character she gets to use this attack on whomever that is as a free action. Additionally, it has a 30% chance of inflicting the infatuation status. Has a -2 accuracy penalty and a 2 turn cooldown. (Heavy Wis Attack; Does 18% + 2x Cha Mod Damage)

Special Attacks(14):

Kiai-icute: Diacute, with a ki flavored flair! Select a move and tap it, incurring its cooldown and any secondary effects it has, including negative effects. Arle then gains a diacute buff that she can tap to increase the damage of any attack, other than a final smash, by an amount equal to the previously mentioned attack's damage plus her wisdom modifier. Then lower Arle's wisdom modifier by an amount you choose for 2 turns (This debuff does not affect perception checks) and add Xd5 to the diacute orb's damage, with X being the amount you lowered your wisdom modifier by. This can be given to an ally. Arle takes 5% recoil. 2 turn cooldown.

Balance Breaker: Arle proceeds to unleash a storm of kicks at an opponent. The moniker isn't a joke in any way shape or form, as Arle can throw an opponent off-balance, requiring them to roll 12+ STR to resist being thrown completely off balance and stunned as a result. 3 turn cooldown. (Heavy Str Attack; Does 18% Damage)

Healing Magic: Arle uses the power of holy magic to heal herself or her allies! Heals for 1D15+(Charisma Mod), but may have unexpected effects when used upon unholy targets. 3 turn cooldown.

Ki Shield: Arle forms a shield around her body. For three turns, whenever Arle is hit by an attack, half of that attack's damage is absorbed by that shield. Additionally, half of all damage Arle does while under this buff is used to offset the damage absorbed by the shield. When the buff expires, Arle takes any remaining damage present on her breastplate. 3 turn cooldown.

Flying Squirrel Mount: A (relatively) giant flying squirrel hops in and allows Arle to mount it, greatly increasing her mobility! Though the squirrel cannot truly fly, it is so good at running, jumping and gliding that it is treated as if it could fly for the purposes of mechanics and fluff. While riding the squirrel, Arle gains +2 to her dexterity modifier and takes 5% less damage from attacks directed at her. The squirrel lasts for 3 turns before it gets tired, at which point Arle can continue riding it but will not gain the dexterity or damage reduction buff until she gets off and lets it rest. The squirrel itself has 40 HP. If it is reduced to 0 HP it becomes too wounded to be ridden, it's cooldown is doubled and it cannot be used again until it's HP is raised back above 0 via healing. 3 turn cooldown.

Chill of Death Fist Storm: Arle's spin on Rulue's Tekken Seisai, in which she emblazes her fists with icy energy and rains down a storm of piercing punches towards an opponent. They say the cold numbs you, which is excellent because the wounds this attack causes would otherwise be excruciating. Has a 50% chance of inflicting mortal wound, and will always inflict mortal wound if the attack roll is a natural 19+. This one is actually stronger than the actual conterpart, but not without a drawback... Arle's hands get a bit frostbitten in the process. [30% damage, 9% recoil, 3 turn cooldown]

Thunder Purge: Arle attempts to grab an opponent by the face or neck and slam them down to the ground, channeling an enormous amount of thunder magic through their bodies on impact. This attack ignore defensive buffs and reduces the duration of defensive buffs on the target by 2 turns. Costs 2 actions. 3 turn cooldown. (Heavy STR Attack, Does 30% Damage)

Condia: Arle attempts to purge a target using a arcane magic. This can either be used on an ally to reduce the number of turns on their negative status conditions by 2 or on an enemy, as a Wisdom vs INT roll, to reduce the number of turns left on their positive buffs by 2. 1 turn cooldown.

Focused Abandon: Arle clears her mind of all thoughts, most especially pain, in order to counter-attack a foe. To initiative this counter-attack, Arle first forfeits her ability to dodge or bubbleshield an incoming attack and is hit by that attack. She then rolls against that attack's accuracy roll using her preferred attacking stat. If she succeeds this roll, she manages to counter attack the opponent for 1.5x the damage they dealt her. This counter attack is cannot be avoided or shielded, but can be resisted. The opponent is then afflicted with the Mortal Wound status.

Burning Impact: Arle jumps high into the air and imbues one of her legs with her fire magic. She dive kicks soon afterward, the impact creating a small-scale earthquake on the ground once the kick connects due to the sheer strength. The kick is a single target attack while the earthquake is an AoE. Both attacks are determined by one roll, which benefits from a +1 to its accuracy. [Kick: 20%, Earthquake: 6%, 3 turn cooldown]

Twin Dragon Fist: Arle channels Rulue and delivers a mighty blow with their combined strength! Supposedly, you can feel a spectral second fist impact you seperately from Arle's--but that's actually just ki! ...Probably. This attack is used twice before incurring its cooldown as two actions, with the second iteration using the same roll but with Rulue's strengh modifier instead of Arle's. (When she is not present, it uses her base modifier) This attack has a 6 turn cooldown. (Heavy Str Attack; Does 30% Damage)

Bayobayo: Arle attempts to warp time around her foes to slow them down! This takes the form of a Wis vs Int roll. The opponent is afflicted with the slow status if they fail to beat Arle's roll, and if Arle beats their Int roll by a value of 6 or above, they are also stunned. 5 turn cooldown.

Resolution: Arle gains a +2 to all of her modifiers except strength which gains a +4 for 3 turns. However, the technique exhausts her and she is afflicted with the drowsy status once the buff ends. 3 turn cooldown.

Stardust Dragon: Arle spends two actions and 6% health summoning a celestial dragon to ravage her foes. For the next four turns, the magical dragon can make single 30% damage attack on a 1 turn cooldown as one of Arle's actions. This dragon attacks with Arle's wisdom modifier at the time of being summoned, ignoring any changes to it made after the fact. Her dodge rolls suffer a -2 penalty for one turn following its summoning. If the dragon does not attack, it does not use up a turn. The summoning itself has a 3 turn cooldown.

Ultimate Attack(3):
Bayoen Haymaker: Combining the powerful energy of Bayoen with her maximum physical strength, Arle throws a very mean punch. 60% damage, single target.

Heaven's Ray: A powerful beam of holy light drops from the sky, or the ceiling if applicable, onto a single target. This target is then consumed by the light and damaged for a massive 80% damage, but Arle's attacks have their cooldowns increased by 1 for 3 turns.

Resurrectia: This powerful healing spell is used to yank a target back from beyond the breach of death, bringing them back to life. It comes at a large cost, however, and thus All of Arle's attacks have their cooldowns increased by 1 for 3 turns. Although it's intended for bringing foes back to life, it's quite effective at healing those still among the living as well. Heals for 80% damage.

[Blade Unlimited]

Primary Attacks:

Madoken: Need to clarify how long she needs to "charge" it for the additional effect to be added. Otherwise looks okay!

Ice Surge Fist: This attack is dealing a bit much damage for all the effects it has going for it, as well as on a 1-turn cooldown. I'd suggest either lowering the attack to 16% DMG if you want to retain the same effects. Alternatively you could keep these effects as is, but increase the cooldown to 2 turns; or drop the freeze effect altogether.

Thunder Surge Kick: Stunning 100% on a 16+ Natural roll is too powerful for this move's current setup to be considered balanced. It could be simplified, such as choosing either parlysis or stun for the 50% chance status, or severely decreasing the damage output of the attack to compensate.

Holy Laser: Is too powerful in its current state. Suggest balancing by lowering the amount of damage or removing the addition of Arle's Charisma mod to the DMG.

Butt Slam: Change it from "+2x Cha Mod" to just "+ Cha Mod" and it should be balanced.

Special Attacks:

Kiai-icute: Would appreciate clarification on what you mean by "incurring its cooldown and any secondary effects it has, including negative effects." In addition, clarify whether the cooldown occurs after the forming of a diacute orb or the usage of one.

Condia: Increase cooldown to 2 turns and its good to go.

Resolution: The amount and magnitude of her stat mod buffs are too much to be offset by only inflicting her with drowsy, -1 INT and WIS mod. With the 3 turn cooldown, that drowsy can potentially even be negated before the debuff ends after the cooldown wears off. Definitely needs reworking.

Stardust Dragon: Definitely in need of re-balancing. Sacrificing 2 actions and 6% health to summon a dragon, plus the dodge penalty for attacks are minimal risk compared to the not-very-proportionate reward of a dragon that can deal 30% dmg per turn on 1 action per turn. Some ways to possibly compensate might be to diminish the amount of damage per the dragon's attacks, increase the cooldown or the amount/level of debuffs on Arle for summoning.

[Mari]

Madoken takes 3% recoil to charge. The recoil is to represent the increased energy requirement to charge it.

Thunder Surge Kick: For a 3 turn cooldown, you can get 30% damage. Out of a D20, only stunning on 16+ provides a 25% chance of stun. When combined with the 50% chance of paralysis, that's -10% damage worth of status. If you factor in 3% recoil for the 6% extra damage, you get the 26% damage

Holy Laser: For 4 turns of cooldown, you can get 30% damage with an extra turn of cooldown. The +2 accuracy is worth -6% damage. Healing Suppression is too situational to be considered one of the OP statuses, so it's worth -4% damage, which we can just negate with that extra turn of cooldown. So that's 24% damage on a static move, and 26% on Arle's riskier version.

Kiai-icute: Diacute 'taps' a move when using it to generate charge. Say she uses kiai-icute and selects Thunder Surge Kick. Thunder Surge Kick gets put on cooldown and Arle takes the 3% extra recoil damage in exchange for using its 26% damage in kiai-icute.

Condia: Condia is a direct clone of an already approved move. I don't know of any like it to compare it to. Considering it can just ... failand does 0% damage, and Arle has to spend a bunch of actions just to cure longer lasting statuses, I don't see the need for 2 turns of cooldown.

Resolution: Many things can "potentially" be offset, but it's still a 100% chance of afflicting yourself with a status. This is also a clone of an already approved move. Though it is only the second of its kind.

Stardust Dragon: If I used 2 actions, 6% health, -2 dodges for 1 turn and a 1 turn cooldown attack for 4 turns...
two 18% attacks from those 2 actions I waste summoning it = 36% damage
four 1 turn cooldowns = 88% damage

I could literally out damage the dragon just using standard 18% damage attacks and 22% 1 turn cooldown attacks instead at no risk. And that's not factoring in the recoil or the dodge rolls, which adds up to an additional 24% damage I could do just not summoning a dragon. This seems pretty balanced to me. What do you think?








As for butt slam, I suppose reducing the base damage from 12% to 8% would fix things up yeah?

And for Ice Surge Fist, I've removed its increased accuracy!

Arle's application has been updated with all the new information from her smash journal.

[Mari]

Arle is here to claim her 2nd PVP reward!

Arle
Warp: Arle rips a hole in space using her magic, creating a wormhole leading to somewhere nearby! This can be used either to benefit allies or inconvenience enemies. When used on allies, it allows them to either effectually warp to a new location or rapidly change their position to sneak attack an enemy. This allows any attack to target wisdom and increases the damage of the attack in question to 1.5x its normal amount. When used on an enemy, the wormhole attempts to suck them in before displacing them somewhere else! This mostly serves the purpose of just forcefully relocating the target. The spell has a short range and cannot actually travel more than 50 feet or so, but can pass through walls, ceilings, and any other boundaries between it and the target location provided there is any space to fit them. If the enemy is able to make it back and continue attacking, it suffers a 1 action penalty. 3 turn cooldown.

Valkyrie Arle
Subspace Drop: Arle rips a hole in space using the seraphim orb, creating a wormhole leading through subspace to somewhere nearby! This can be used either to benefit allies or inconvenience enemies. When used on allies, it allows them to either effectually warp to a new location or rapidly change their position to sneak attack an enemy. This allows any attack to target wisdom and increases the damage of the attack in question to 1.5x its normal amount. When used on an enemy, the wormhole attempts to suck them in before displacing them somewhere else! This mostly serves the purpose of just forcefully relocating the target. The spell has a short range and cannot actually travel more than 50 feet or so, but can pass through walls, ceilings, and any other boundaries. If there isn't enough space to contain the target, reality will distort to create enough space. If the enemy is able to make it back and continue attacking, it suffers a 1 action penalty. 3 turn cooldown.

Battle Arle
Subspace Punch/Kick: Arle punches or kicks a hole in space using magic, creating a tiny portal for her limb to travel through in order to hit an enemy as if she were right next to them no matter where she is! This portal can be expanded to let her reposition herself, or she can simply retract her limb, remaining where she is. This attack always functions as a sneak attack, targeting wisdom, and increases the damage of whatever attack it is combo'd with by 1.5x. Alternatively, she can yank someone through the portal to bring them to her, acting as a ranged grapple! 3 turn cooldown.

[Mari]

Micro revamp time! I'm revamping Arle's Fire, Ice Storm, Thunder and Holy Laser spells to reflect their tiered variants. I am also changing the name of Arle's final smash to Aurora, as Heaven's Ray will be getting re-used as Holy Laser's powered up form. The old ones are here~

Fire: Arle launches a large fireball at the target, attempting to blast them with burning kinetic force! A basic and reliable form of attack with a 50% chance of burning the target. (Medium WIS attack; Does 10% damage)

Ice Storm: Arle unleashes a storm of icy wind, snow and jagged icicles upon her opponents, bombarding them with pain. Has a 30% chence to freeze the targets. Arle suffers a -1 to her dexterity during the turn she casts this attack. 1 turn cooldown. (Medium WIS attack; Does 22% Damage)

Thunder: Arle calls down lightning from the sky to smite a foe with awesome power. Can pass through solid matter to strike enemies. Because of the immense speed and disjointed nature of the attack, this qualifies as a surprise attack and therefore targets wisdom. Has a 25% chance of burning the foe and a 25% chance of paralyzing the foe. 3 turn cooldown. (Heavy WIS attack; Does 26% Damage)

Holy Laser: Arle channels her force of personality into a divine laser that explosively impacts enemies. Because it's a laser, it's difficult to dodge. It's also very powerful but is quite draining as a result. This attack gains a +2 to its accuracy and has a 40% chance of inflicting Healing Suppression. 4 turn cooldown. (Heavy Cha Attack; Does 21% + Cha Mod Damage)

And here are the new ones!

Hot → Fire → Fire Storm → Volkener: Arle summons the power of fire to burn and smash her foes with surprising kinetic force! The base form, hot, does 12% Damage and has a 30% chance of burning the target. At the cost of a -1 penalty to one of Arle's dodge rolls next turn each upgrade, she can upgrade this move up to twice, granting it an extra +6 damage done. On a critical roll, this attack becomes its Volkener, has a -2 dodge penalty, no burn chance, and a base damage of 30%

Cold → Ice → Ice Storm → Glacieria: Arle summons the power of ice to crush and freeze her foes! The base form, cold, does 14% damage and has a 40% chance of freezing the target. At the cost of a -1 penalty to one of Arle's dodge rolls next turn and 2% recoil each upgrade, Arle can upgrade this move up to twice, granting it an extra +6 damage done and an extra 20% chance of freezing. On a critical roll, this attack becomes Glacieria, which has a -2 dodge penalty, 4% recoil damage, a base damage of 32%, and substitutes its extra critical damage and freeze chance for a guaranteed mortal wound. Has a 1 turn cooldown.

Shock → Thunder → Lightning → Lightning Burst: Arle electrocutes a foe with raw, unlimited power. The base form, shock, is a precision electrified touch that seizes up the target's muscles temporarily, dealing 12% damage and afflicting paralysis. At the cost of a -1 penalty to one of Arle's dodge rolls next turn and 2% recoil, she can exchange the paralysis chance for the ability to stun. At the cost of an additional -2 dodge penalty and 3% recoil, she can increase the damage by 18%. On a critical hit, this attack becomes Lightning Burst, which has a -3 dodge penalty, 5% recoil, a base damage of 30%, and afflicts both the disabled and fear statuses--but does no extra critical damage. Has a 1 turn cooldown.

Holy Laser → Heaven's Ray: Arle channels her force of personality into a divine laser that is quite difficult dodge--because it travels at the speed of light. The base form, Holy Laser, has a +2 to its accuracy and deals 15+Cha Damage. At the cost of a -1 penalty to one of Arle's dodge rolls next turn, it can be upgraded to Heaven's Ray to increase the damage by her charisma modifier. On a critical roll, this functions as Heaven's Ray, except the accuracy bonus is exchanged for an additional base damage bonus equal to her charisma modifier. Has a 2 turn cooldown.

[Mari]

So for some reason I just... forgot to give Battle Arle one of her final smashes? I fixed that, and also replaced Bayoen Haymaker because that move was uninspired. Her two new final smashes are:

Blazing Aura: An oppressive golden aura surrounds Arle, absorbing the force from incoming attacks and amplifying her own attacks. It also has the side effect of making her eyes glow quite brightly and causing lighter objects nearby to float freely into the air. This lasts four turns, and can be extended to up to 6 turns at the cost of Arle going berserk and suffering a -2 penalty to her charisma/int modifiers for those extra turns. During this time her attacks deal 8% extra damage, Arle takes 8% less damage and she can add a 100% chance of causing any status she wants to one of her attacks once per turn.

Qigong: Spiritual healing taken to a magical extreme. Arle spreads her chill to her nearby allies, radiating a healing aura that soothes their pain and calms their minds! This lasts for 4 turns, during which Arle and her all are healed of all their negative statuses, healed for 10 HP, and lastly granted a free use of their special and primary attacks that ignore those attacks' cooldown if they have one. These benefits are repeated each turn.


Additionally, I replaced Konran because it's bad and non-canon. To replace it, Arle gets ...her first Puyo Puyo reference in her entire moveset!

Hard Drop: Arle summons and slams down a giant puyo down on her enemy, squishing them! Not everyone realizes this, but Puyos are hollow and filled with a tasty juice! Their jelly-like shell is quite thin as a result, and the giant puyo has a 50% chance of simply smashing the victim through this shell, trapping them inside! If this happens, the opponent must beat Arle's attack roll using an attack of their own against the puyo to escape. Else, when Arle goes to pop the puyo using a damaging attack she'll also hit the victim, auto-hitting them and dealing 1.5x damage! (Heavy Wis Attack; Does 18% Damage) 2 turn cooldown.

[Mari]

Y'know what I haven't been doing? Making use of the extra companion attacks Arle's companions have due to her rank up rewards. Let me fix that a little bit.


Carbuncle
Dash Attack: Carbuncle runs around all hyper-active-like and smacks into an enemy rather violently, probably even on accident! Doesn't do great damage due to his size and squishy consistency, but commands undue attention, stunning the victim. Carbuncle takes 5% recoil, however. 2 turn cooldown. (Medium Dex Attack; Does 16% Damage)

Scavenge: Carbuncle can attempt to steal a weapon as a DEX based attack, item or other form of equipment. When used on a player, this removes their equipment and if they cannot use a move without it, that move becomes unusable until they get it back. Carbuncle is incapable of using most equipment due to his size, but he can hand it off to Arle or other larger characters to use, granting them the ability to use moves associated with that piece of equipment. When stealing items from a character with no items readily available for stealing, Carbuncle will either fudge stealing a random item from the list below, or cough one up, with the items corresponding to a dice roll. These items are volatile, meaning they disappear at the end of a thread. 3 turn cooldown.

1. Bob-Omb
2. Mr. Saturn
3. Chuckola Cola
4. Food x3
5. Pitfall
6. Super Mushroom
7. Ray Gun
8. Lip's Stick
9. Pokeball
10. Metal Box
11. Ink Bottle
12. Freezie
13. Devil's Kiss Lollipop
14. Chateau Romani
15. Fire Bar

Rocco
Tickle: Rocco attempts to tickle a foe into submission! This doesn't hurt, but it sure screws up their ability to fight correctly! Lowers the amount of actions the victim has by 1, or if the victim is an NPC and doesn't follow action limits, reduces the damage of their next two attacks by half. Has an additional 70% chance of stunning the victim. 1 turn cooldown.

Holy Nova: A burst of light is emitted that blinds those who do not look away in time for 2 turns! It also kinda burns. 3 turn cooldown. (Medium Cha Attack; Does 10% Damage)

Runepen: Rocco draws on someone! This saps their strength away if they're an enemy, reducing the damage they do by 5%, or grants them a 5% damage bonus if they're an ally. Lasts 5 turns. 5 turn cooldown.

Duo Drop: Rocco can drop an ally on the target from above! ...Doesn't work on characters more than say 170 or 180 pounds normally, though, as she's too weak to carry them even briefly. She quickly follows them, duo divebombing them! This attack hits twice and consumes an action from each character, one for the dropped character and one for the character Rocco dropped, meaning Rocco can only use it on a character that gives up an action to let her. Both attacks afflict the stun status, and if they both hit the target will also be disabled in a status of their choice. However, missing will cause the character to take 7% recoil from hitting the ground. Due to logic, if you bubble shield one of the drops you must bubble shield the other, as they happen at pretty much the same time. However, Roco suffers a -1 to her next 3 dodge rolls due to exhaustion. Has a 4 turn cooldown, but Rocco can do the move before she's ready at a cost of 2% recoil per turn left on the CD. (Heavy Dex Attack; Does 30% Damage)

Additionally, the following pets are being retired to clean up Arle's companion list a little because they're pets and she has no interest in making them fight.
