I think watching fight scenes can help in general terms with writing combat, since it can give you an idea of flow and choreography.

At least if you're writing something you know, with knights.

I mean, depends on what you're writing, and the tone and theme of what you're writing. Trained armored knights were legitimately monstrous on the battlefield, so looking up how they fought helps.

As much as there's a lot of reasons twitter sucks, I genuinely don't want to see it die for the sake of all the artists who now rely on it. Hoping the shithead stops trying to directly administrate.

I'll judge the bio when it's finished.
There's a lot of options, you could do supernatural, tech-based, superhuman...
The Once and Future King
King blinked, perplexed. Another Knight? There was... something familiar about this one. A score to settle, as well? She was wary. But if this was a knight... then undeniably she would fight with honor. Therefore, she would not betray her word and attack while there was still a threat. With one hand, she took the knight's, her other hand pushing the truck back a few inches as she turned to face her.
"... Then we shall settle this conflict in honorable combat. After the-"
King paused, realizing that their foe was now on the ground, a shot from Allegra's weapon having succeeded in incapacitating the demonically-possessed girl. So. Her enemy at least appeared to have been defeated. The phantasmal blade of Excalibur shimmered as the blonde knight approached, peering at their enemy. Indeed, it appeared that she would not be rising any time soon. King stopped before the downed girl, and swiftly turned to face Allegra. Indeed, she still needed to be dealt with. The IFJ had equipment to safely transport such supercriminals to secure facilities so they could be contained and rehabilitated when possible. In this case, exorcised and hopefully able to return to a normal life quickly.
"... Spartan," King began, her head snapping up so her green gaze regarded the other heroine, "Contact the Hawk."
The Hawk was essentially a jet, for transporting members of the IFJ that had no other option.

Miranda sat back, onto her rear. Falling on the ground hurt like that... and it was embarrassing, doing something like that surrounded be people she didn't even know... Of course, then she saw something that completely distracted her. It was a little girl! A little girl dressed to look like a penguin somehow! This was... completely adorable! Miranda's pain was forgotten at the sight of such extreme, over-the-top levels of utter adorableness right there. And she was on a throne that was too big for her oh that was just so cute... There was a bit of confusion when the name and title of the girl appeared. She was a Maou too?
What was really going on here...? Was the adorable little girl in the penguin outfit going to explain things to them? But that seemed like a silly source of exposition! ... In the best way possible, but was that really going to be it? ... Well it wouldn't be a problem at all!
"... A-are you going to explain why we're here...?"

Charlotte continued to look on in feigned confusion. Oh, this was fantastic, every reaction out of him was great... It was a shame she'd probably have to cut it out soon. Still, she couldn't keep stringing him on about her being an actual little girl... but a little more wouldn't hurt, now would it? She tilted her head in the opposite direction, frowning slightly and starting to put on something of a pout. "But there really was no-one else..."
Maybe it wasn't exactly believable, but he wasn't figuring her out so far... she peered at the thugs on the ground. Hmph, what a load of idiots. In a world of superheroes, they took a little girl in this situation as just a little girl? Still... why were these guys after a little girl like that in the first place? She supposed her earlier theories, the possibility of ransom, the guys being sickos who just wanted to kidnap a child, were possible... but at the same time it didn't entirely seem likely that it would be something that happened on a whim. She really was starting to wonder. Wouldn't thugs like this be more into people they could immediately steal from? Big crimes didn't fit trash like this, and she hardly looked like she carried any valuables.
"They talked about my costume... they said it in a really scary way though! They said it was cute, but I didn't feel like they were saying it to be nice..." Charlotte leaned over one of the men, prodding him with her foot. "... They're definitely bad guys, but I don't know what they wanted!"
There. That was the kind of simplistic understanding of a child. Intuition would tell a girl of her apparent age that these men were very bad, but not why they were. Oh, certainly, children could figure it out, but they wouldn't start doing so immediately.
She supposed she should probably start telling the truth soon.

Charlotte is being such a troll.
I'll update for her most likely when I post for everyone again, though possibly sooner.

Oh, there were so many options to just plain screw with this guy... she's string him along for a bit, and then tell the truth. At his question of where her friend had gone('Anne' disappearing had in fact made the situation all the more ripe for her fun), Charlotte gave a feigned look of complete and total puzzlement. She was, in general, good at feigning various emotions. Confusion being one of them. She titled her head to the side, her mouth slightly open and her eyes wide, blinking several times as she regarded the man for a few moments. "... My... friend? But... I'm the only one here, Mister! Who are you talking about...?"
Oh, this was just too fun. A good way to unwind from tracking Doctor Pleasant and dealing with these thugs. There were other, better ways to relax and unwind, but that didn't detract from the method of screwing with someone for a bit. She'd have to ask about that shield when she broke the truth to him, too. But for now, time to play the innocent, confused child. "... Um... they all came running in, and they said some really scary things... and then the all got thrown around and some just fell over! I think they got knocked out or something..."

Superman is an extremely soft science alien who gets sun powers, Hawkman if I'm not mistaken has wings, Thor is a god, Harry Potter has magic.
I'm asking because of the way you're trying to explain it. That's all.
If it was magic or supernatural it wouldn't be an issue, but she's a superhuman which is basically the non-tech "science" powers in this setting. It's kind of an inconsistency in your abilities which is actually rather important if you're going to start explaining them and writing out their limitations. If you feel the need to leave because of this, I'm sorry.

Ok that is a lot better. I wasn't planning on playing her too seriously gritty. However, I can understand your apprehension. Luckily I planned on two characters, but the second one would probably fit better. More likely a Magical Boy hero.
Hmm. That could probably work out, really.

I want to join, but can my character be in the middle between superheroes and supervillains?
Depends on how they're written out. I can't say much until I see the bio.
