[@Xavier Bloodbayne] Oh yeah, you're right. Auz stabbed at Xavier's heart and Xavier hurt his own chest. Touche'. I have previous evidence supporting Auz's original intended stats. Xavier has had little reference in that area before today. Like I said, there are different kinds of strength. Strength is by no means a definite factor with which to determine speed alone. That's beside the point though, because I believe you. You had to set it up at some point, and this was as good a time as any. I still consider it a highly uneven bout, given Xavier's ability to shoot blood spikes from his body at will as a repellent to close range combat, and how since his blood can act independently of his body, it's virtually impossible to disable his attacking capabilities. A.E, cut off Auz's right arm, his attack power is halved. Cut off Xavier's right arm, he can grow a blood whip from it, cut Auz's other arm off, and then haul his severed limb back into place, perhaps to solidify it into a brutish, primitive club. Ahhh, well. That's just me being a complainer. Ol' Doc is just frumpy grumpy that his favorite grappling moves can be easily countered by a torrent of body spikes. I know that you'll give me a good, challenging post. On another train of thought, does Xavier require oxygenated blood to live or to power his muscles? Does he get lightheaded if too much blood is used up?
