Ok, I admit I've been rather lax on updates lately. Let me get right to the point: It's incredibly boring work. That and I'm trying to reign myself in. The game really doesn't need a ridiculous number of maneuvers anyway. In the meantime, here's a cookie.
Ashura Blade
Requirements: Focus ******, Echo Blade
Power Points: Elemental: Darkness 5
Description: This ability is not a blade – although it can be formed into a blade-shaped projectile with sufficient mental control. Focusing intense energy into a chi blast the elemental generates a short-ranged, purple and black pulse of intensely destructive energy. Although it can harm living creatures the properties of the Blade are more destructive against matter unprotected by chi.
System: The range of this projectile attack is limited to Intelligence in hexes. It does not lose strength when passing through barriers or other projectiles as it, like Echo Blade, does not actually impact them. It can be stopped by another Ashura Blade or Echo Blade. It cannot be reflected or absorbed except by another darkness elemental. The difficulty of this maneuver’s damage roll is unaffected by surprise or even consciousness owing to the automatic nature of the defense.
Damage from this attack is soaked using Intelligence + temporary Chi instead of Stamina. As the Ashura Blade damages targets by shredding them at the molecular level any object destroyed by this blast is utterly annihilated and it always inflicts aggravated damage. Handling this energy is just as dangerous and the elemental suffers one health level of aggravated damage when using this ability.
Cost: 3 Chi Speed: -1 Damage: +4 Move: none
