Current 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.

Alignment: Hero
Real Name: Cruz, Alicia
Superhero Name: Blast Girl
Normal Appearance: Her hair is blonde and she has very lightly tanned skin, with green eyes. Her scarf is red, her jacket tan, her shirt white, and her shorts are blue. The gauntlets are red and black.
Superhero Appearance: Mine and colors.
Meta type: Neotool
Description of Powers: Alicia is excellent in hand-to-hand combat, taking regular martial arts lessons for most of her life, even before she decided to become a superheroine. She is quite athletic, a good sprinter, and generally capable when it comes to physical activity. Alicia's main equipment is her Blast Knuckles, a pair of gauntlets designed and fabricated by her older sister, Kate Cruz, specifically for Alicia's Blast Girl persona. Held together by a series of microscopic projectors that emit an extremely powerful magnetic field, they can be activated and assembled on Alicia's hands at will. Manual assembly is possible but takes much more time. When assembling themselves they emit an intense glow. Kate built this trait in because it's more flashy and impressive. The circular portion of the gauntlets holds the cartridges, arranged in a ring of eight around each of Blast Girl's armored fists. Each time she punches, anywhere from two to eight of the cartridges(two by default, more if Blast Girl triggers them) are discharged. Each cartridge contains a hyperconcentrated form of specialized energy. This energy acts as a destructive blast, rocketing opponents back and increasing the power of Blast Girl's punches almost like the blast from an explosive shotgun. While the energy is capable of shattering solid walls and ripping through metal, living cells are more resistant to it, allowing Blast Girl to use the Blast Knuckles to non-lethally incapacitate living enemies. Kate Cruz manufactures the cartridges that act as ammunition for the Blast Knuckles, and Blast Girl carries as many as she can with her when she's going out to fight crime. In addition, she wears light armor on the vital areas of her chest, but is rather lacking in armor otherwise aside from on her boots. The Blast Knuckles and the armor on her chest are bullet proof, allowing her to protect herself from guns to a limited extent. The force from firing them can also be used to launch her into the air.
Background: Alicia was born the second daughter to the wealthy Cruz family. Her older sister, Kate, was one year her senior. As she grew older, she began to discover many important things about her older sister. Firstly, Kate was highly intelligent, beyond her age. Secondly, she was highly immature and childish. In addition, when Alicia was seven years old, Kate was diagnosed with a chronic illness that, while not normally fatal, impacted her immune system and health, necessitating that the girl was not unnecessarily exposed to outside elements and frequently took ill without taking medication. A combination of these factors made Alicia begin to see herself as the older sister, even though she was the younger of the two. As Alicia attended martial arts lessons, Kate spent time subtly using her families' vast funds to provide herself with a means to relieve boredom resulting from her frequent confinement. Alicia found out about this a few years later, and was initially angry with her older sister, and attempted to ground her... until Kate revealed that she was trying to find a way to assist her in fighting crime like the superheroes that got reported on the news all the time. Alicia decided to take this opportunity, on the condition that Kate didn't use so much money that it hurt their family. Which, given the Cruz family's vast wealth, was not an issue at all. At eighteen, Kate finally completely it with some assistance from the Cruz family science department. Blast Knuckle. Alicia donned the identity of Blast Girl, and has been fighting crime whenever she's got the chance ever since.
Personality: Alicia Cruz is an individual who displays a strong sense of justice. Even before becoming a superheroine, she was a girl who didn't tolerate innocent people getting hurt, or anyone causing trouble. She tried to handle all of this as best she could. She found even greater freedom with this as the costumed heroine Blast Girl, able to really fight real crime. Alicia is energetic and friendly to all those around her. Unless the people around her are bad guys, then they get punched in the face with energy blasts. She gets really fired up, especially when in the Blast Girl identity, dramatically declaring her intent to take down all evil without a single casualty, and declaring her superheroine name whenever she arrives on the scene. She condemns criminals for their crimes loudly and in an incredibly fiery manner as she beats them into unconsciousness to leave them for the police. Alicia is dedicated to never killing a criminal, always leaving them to the authorities. However, she has a bit of a tendency to charge into things without thinking them through. Alicia adores her older sister, but sometimes feels like, in spite of their ages, she's the "big sister" and Kate is the "little sister" in terms of their relationship.
Alicia is openly gay.

Secret identity known to public?: No.
City of residence: Angel City

Alignment: Hero
Real Name: Charlotte Dyer
Superhero Name: Blackmoon Witch
Normal Appearance: Charlotte has black hair, very pale skin, and green eyes. Her dress in this picture is black with white frills
Superhero Appearance: In combat, she dons a more stereotypical witch outfit when she has the time. She wears a wide-brimmed, pointed hat, a high-collared cape(ripped at the edges), a black jacket, and a tattered knee-length skirt. She also owns a deliberately-stereotypical detective-style longcoat.
Meta type: Parahuman
Description of Powers: Charlotte is a skilled witch, specializing in various darker magical techniques. However, as dark as her spells get she will never dip truly into black magic. That said, she practices some blood magic(using her own blood or the blood of animals eaten by people) and sometimes summons presences that require sacrifices(again, something of herself or an animal people eat). Her catalogue of spells includes various illusion spells, summoning spells, offensive magic, and defensive magic. They include:
-Corvid Murder: An easily-deployed spell with a rather descriptive name, Corvid Murder creates an array of what are seemingly crows to either use as projectiles or spy on her enemies depending on the situation. It requires magical power and casting time, but little else aside from that. The crows themselves are actually simple magic constructs that can relay information or explode. The explosions are not strong enough to be lethal, but can blast an enemy off their feet and cause very minor burns. The longer Charlotte takes casting this spell, the more crows are created. If necessary, she can fuse two crows into a raven, which produces a more powerful explosion that can be used for blasting apart obstacles.
-Black Shield: Another spell without much cost, Black Shield takes the form of a pitch black magic circle, hovering where Charlotte has created it. It merely requires the words of the spell being stated and the symbol being inscribed in the air using Charlotte's forefinger. It can vary in size, but it must be a circle and Charlotte must complete it in order for it to function. Its function is, of course, as a shield, capable of blocking anything from bullets to explosions. However, enough force can break through it, and magical damage pierces it far easier then normal damage.
-Bramble Wall: Requiring a sacrifice of hair, Charlotte can cut some of her hair and cast it to the ground. This causes a wall of thorny brambles to sprout, blocking attackers. However, they can be broken, and the spell requires ground where brambles can grow.
-Midnight Ripper: A spell with a higher cost, Midnight Ripper incarnates a bolt of blackened magical energy, and can produce eight for each casting. These blasts knock enemies off their feet and with high enough power can even be lethal if properly directed(Charlotte rarely sees the need for this). This spell requires a sacrifice of blood in order to empower it for a more potent striek, meaning that Charlotte must often slice her palm when dealing with more dangerous foes. However, her healing magic can compensate for this bloodloss.
-Infinite Darkness: A combination sealing spell and offensive spell, Infinite Darkness is a spell used against only Charlotte's most dangerous opponents, ones that she cannot find an alternate route to defeating. Requiring her to slash both of her wrists and shed a great deal of blood for the spell to function(or sacrifice enough animals to fill in the cost, impractical given the spell's use), Infinite Darkness fires an immense blast of magical energy, destroying much of the target's body, before containing them in a magical seal. The bloodloss, even with her healing abilities, leaves her in a daze, and the spell is used only against enemies who absolutely cannot be defeated by any other means(and with GM permission).
-"Aging Cream": In actuality an illusion spell, "Aging Cream" allows Charlotte to appear in her adult form using an illusion. It can be dispelled simply by hitting it hard enough, though touching it lightly will cause it to feel like a real body. Charlotte uses it when necessary to appear as an adult physically, as it is far easier to perform this spell then cause her body to change back and fourth. Charlotte can change back and fourth, but it is a more costly process.
-Summoning: Varying greatly, Charlotte can perform various summoning spells. Requiring a circle drawn out of chalk, and sacrifices varying from objects, to blood, to animals, Charlotte can use them for a number of purposes.
--Jack: A house-sized pumpkin with tentacle-like vines, allowing it to walk. Impervious to gunfire(though vulnerable to explosives, magic, and sufficient blunt trauma), Jack bears a massive face resembling that of a Jack 'o Lantern. It even contains a fire inside, which allows it to release fireballs. Charlotte, when summoning Jack, rides atop it. Jack requires the sacrifice of multiple chickens, a cow, or a sufficient amount of blood from Charlotte's body. It is the most notable summon.
--Horrors: Dabbling in some rather eldritch techniques, Charlotte can summon starfish-like tentacled creatures. They are easily slain and Charlotte prefers not to use them given their nature, but she will do so in a pinch.
Charlotte has various healing spells cast on her body, allowing her to heal minor injuries quite quickly. However, blood takes longer to replenish and certain spells will leave her dazed from loss of blood. Charlotte must cast all her spells, and many require a sacrifice of some sort. Bloodloss still effects her even if it cannot kill her, and drawn-out combat that requires her to sacrifice a lot of blood will make her quite dazed and weary. She is absolutely not a physical fighter, even in the rare occasions where she uses her adult form. Her adult form is more difficult to maintain the longer she maintains it, and is harder to regenerate.
Charlotte has a fair amount of money, which she uses to fund her magical practices. She owns a rather large home outside of London, as well(and another in this city). She keeps several farm animals(and takes the ones she can transport with her easily). They are well-cared for up until they are required for a sacrifice. On her person, Charlotte carries various small knives so that she can perform blood sacrifices or cut her hair. She also carries chalk to inscribe magic circles on surfaces when necessary. Charlotte also owns some magical items, mostly tomes of spells... But also a seemingly ordinary Victorian-era lantern. It is, however, powered by magic, a power that has been building up ever since it was created inside it. It can be released in a potent blast, but only has one use before the power must build for a hundred years or more once again.
Charlotte is skilled in information gathering and some detective techniques. She completely lacks any physical fighting ability and is as strong and durable as she appears(which is not very at all). She uses numbing spells on her knives so that blood sacrifices do not hurt as much, as she has a very low tolerance for pain. She also tires easily from enough physical exertion, though she replenishes her stamina more quickly then average. She also has some stealth skills.
Background: Charlotte was born two-hundred years ago, and to begin with she did not have a particularly extraordinary life. It was not until her mid-teens that she discovered an old book in her father's home... a book of magic. In secret, she began to practice magic from this tome, becoming deeply involved in her studies to the point of nearly forgetting about everything else. One night, her father discovered what she was doing and was incredibly angry. He said that the book was dangerous, and that she should never have even opened it. Refusing to forgo her studies, her father attempted to seal away the book entirely... and on the very same night, they were attacked. Apparently robbers, they killed her father when he refused to allow them entry to her home. Using her newfound magical power, Charlotte managed to kill them. For a while she was crushed by her father's death, but eventually she simply settled into living by herself. And yet she had little to do in her life. At least, aside from growing her magical power. Practicing more and more, her power grew greater and greater. It was no longer for something to do by herself, but her pride as a witch. While her methods never went to killing innocent people, they were rather dark, involving the sacrifice of animals or the use of her own blood. Managing to halt her aging process at twenty-six, she was now practicing magic and witchcraft simply for herself. She gained a reputation among those aware of magic as her power grew further and further, quickly becoming one of the most accomplished magic-users in her area. At around sixty years of age, Charlotte began prolifically taking apprentices. There were many who wanted to learn from her, after all. She taught them how to prevent the aging process, how to practice dark magic, even summon demons and other creatures. However, she did not do this with the intent of teaching them how to kill or harm innocent people. Their true enemies, perhaps. Supernatural creatures, maybe. Even using magic secretly to get ahead in life. But hurting the innocent? She did not suspect anyone following her schooling would take such a path.
They did. Nearly all of her apprentices chose to delve into even blacker magic, and believed that Charlotte had been holding them back. Several simply left to practice this magic, while others mounted a surprise attack on her in vengeance. While the attack was initially successful, she managed to fight back and defend herself, driving off her former apprentices. However, the attack drained her magically and physically injured her. And so she made a decision. She decided to reduce her body to a state that would use less energy, and be easier to repair and heal. In short, she regressed her physical body back to her ten-year-old self using magic. There were other advantages, but initially this is what she had in mind. And from there... Charlotte continued her practices. She began to offer her services, to the supernatural community, as a detective, using her newly young appearance to obscure who she was. She hunted down magical criminals, both to stop them from abusing magic and to track her former apprentices. Charlotte felt it was her duty to stop them. She began to work with other secret enforcers of the supernatural, travelling the world to find information about her quarries.
Today, she works more openly, as superheroics have been revealed. She lacks a true "superhero name", instead taking a title she gained all those years ago. "The Witch of the Black Moon", or "Blackmoon Witch". She came to Greenfield after hearing one of her former apprentices appeared there.
Personality: Charlotte is, at first glance, rather childish and immature. Well... as far as her chronological age goes, at least. And this is not some sort of elaborate facade, she genuinely has some rather childish tendencies, such as a preference for sweets over other foods and the like. However, she is also highly sarcastic, bluntly making rather insulting remarks towards others for what she perceives as stupidity or foolishness. Charlotte has a tendency to taunt and mock others, even those on her side, and greatly enjoy doing so. She likes to tease people in various ways, though never in an actually harmful fashion. At the same time, however, she is rather dedicated to preventing magic being used for truly evil purposes and intends on defending innocent people from being effected as a result. She views it as an abuse of power, something she cannot stand. She is also rather intent on keeping her allies safe, and she does genuinely care about those who work with her... at least unless they make her angry. Charlotte does not desire to take human lives, but she won't hesitate if she has absolutely no remaining options. Charlotte maintains her ten-year-old appearance for several reasons. Firstly, it is easier to sustain a body like this. Second, it's a pain to return to her adult form. Third, it's easy to escape notice when you look like a little girl and it makes what you are capable of more unexpected. Fourth, it makes teasing people much more entertaining. Charlotte loves her craft and performing it how she feels is proper. She is very intent on hunting down her remaining apprentices, who have gone far, far off the path of what she feels is proper and become intensely dangerous magical criminals. Charlotte feels that it is her duty to stop them however she must, though she will also handle other crimes along the way.

Secret identity known to public?: Charlotte does not actively conceal her identity, but many who do not personally know her refuse to believe she could ever be the witch superheroine. The rare times she appears in her adult form, they are far quicker to believe her.
City of residence: Charlotte lives in London, but she traveled to Valle Dorado after hearing one of her former apprentices appeared there.
Misaka Mikoto


Really, Mikoto was kind of surprised that so many people had shown up to calm her down. But it looked like, in spite of that initial perverted reaction, Kuroko had quickly backed off and started to try and clean herself up. Had all the rejection finally sunk in for the other girl for once? But still, she'd made that perverted comment, and-

The static crackled louder and the power rose the moment something came in contact with her. Before there could be more then the slightest static shock, Mikoto immediately clamped down on her electrical output, the static fading immediately as she stepped away. Whoever had poked her had done something, something to... to...

... It was the older girl? For a few moments, Mikoto stood stock still. Interfering with her power like that... The third-ranked level five wasn't sure what had happened or how it had, but the only conclusion she could make as to why her electricity had suddenly became so much more powerful then she was intending was that it had coincided with the prodding from the other girl. If she had went ahead and shocked Kuroko, it wouldn't have been the reprimanding blast she usually used to try and make the younger girl back off. It could have seriously hurt her friend, and the newcomer could easily have gotten a much nastier shock then the one she did from contact. There was a moment of sharp, unpleasant guilt at the thought.

"... Kuroko, I'm going to buy you something to wear, okay? You can't go around like that," Mikoto's gaze was cast downward, but she swiftly looked up and turned to face the older girl who had prodded her.

"Oi," she started, fixing her gaze on the girl, "... I don't know what you did, but it could have seriously hurt you... And Kuroko. What were you thinking?"

Saten Ruiko


She was going to meet up with Uiharu... somewhere around here, right? It seemed like the right place. Ruiko glanced around, and... wait, was that some girl in gothloli staring at an alleyway for some reason. Realizing the possibilities, Ruiko couldn't help but immediately hurry over to her. After all, what was in the alleyways?

The ghost, of course!

"Hey, hey!" Ruiko said as she approached, stopping beside the smaller girl and peering into the alleyway as well, "Are you looking for the alleyway stalker? I hear he can pass through walls, 'cause he's a ghost, so it's really hard to spot him unless he's trying to get you!"
Thankfully, Mikoto has better control than that. ^^;

Sorry if this goes in a more serious direction then you were hoping. I was trying to think of a less-serious one and I realized that Mikoto's control(of her power, not her self-control when it comes to fighting or buying cute things) is generally pretty good, coupled with how Kuroko had backed off surprising her probably giving her a good opportunity to realize what was going on and shut off her shocks before it got too bad.

That being said feel free to interpret the shock Torako got as something comedic if you want. ^^;

I actually have another scene Anette could participate in coming up soon, since I'm sending Saten Beatrice's way and they could be nearby or something.
Oh, there could easily be resistant materials to Blast Girl's... blasting punches. Thick enough armor would even do it, but she can blast-punch robots if she comes up against them.

She's not one to go into that kind of thing, but she could easily believe they come from something like that. Her method of summoning is a bit on the dark side(though she is adamantly against black magic). And, well... I'll go ahead and post her bio. ^^;

Firstly, it is easier to sustain a body like this. Second, it's a pain to return to her adult form. Third, it's easy to escape notice when you look like a little girl and it makes what you are capable of more unexpected. Fourth, it makes teasing people much more entertaining. Charlotte loves her craft and performing it how she feels is proper. She is very intent on hunting down her remaining apprentices, who have gone far, far off the path of what she feels is proper and become intensely dangerous magical criminals. Charlotte feels that it is her duty to stop them however she must, though she will also handle other crimes along the way.
Origin Story: Nearly all of her apprentices chose to delve into even blacker magic, and believed that Charlotte had been holding them back. Several simply left to practice this magic, while others mounted a surprise attack on her in vengeance. While the attack was initially successful, she managed to fight back and defend herself, driving off her former apprentices. However, the attack drained her magically and physically injured her. And so she made a decision. She decided to reduce her body to a state that would use less energy, and be easier to repair and heal. In short, she regressed her physical body back to her ten-year-old self using magic. There were other advantages, but initially this is what she had in mind. And from there... Charlotte continued her practices. She began to offer her services, to the supernatural community, as a detective, using her newly young appearance to obscure who she was. She hunted down magical criminals, both to stop them from abusing magic and to track her former apprentices. Charlotte felt it was her duty to stop them. She began to work with other secret enforcers of the supernatural, travelling the world to find information about her quarries.
Today, she works more openly, as superheroics have been revealed. She lacks a true "superhero name", instead taking a title she gained all those years ago. "The Witch of the Black Moon", or "Blackmoon Witch". She came to Valle Dorado after hearing one of her former apprentices appeared there.
Secret identity known to public?: Charlotte does not actively conceal her identity, but many who do not personally know her refuse to believe she could ever be the witch superheroine. The rare times she appears in her adult form, they are far quicker to believe her.
City of residence: Charlotte lives in London, but she traveled to Valle Dorado after hearing one of her former apprentices appeared there.
Hmm, well, I could change that but I'd think making it just vibrations would kind of get rid of the "blast" part of "Blast Girl".

I was kind of running off of non-real-world logic when I came up with a new form of explosive nonlethal energy for her the first time, um.

And I suppose I can cut the Horrors then, I'm a little sad since it drops one of Charlotte's villains but she has a lot of others.
The moment she heard the "bang" of her trap going off, Milly excitedly rushed off to Charlotte's bedroom. If she'd planned things out right, the trap would have gone off the moment that the other girl opened her wardrobe. Obviously, it was invariable that Charlotte would do such a thing at some point, and Milly knew it would happen at some point. But this quickly? It was perfect, absolutely perfect! Hands out at her sides as she ran, grinning widely, the white-haired girl found the door and happily pushed it open, striding inside. There was Charlotte, knocked senseless by the flashbang trap. She felt a little guilty, both for how hard it had hit(she hadn't expected Charlotte to trip and bump her head) and for the fact that the other girl's pet dragon had been caught up in the blast, but at least Charlotte deserved it!

Arms folded, she stood over the recovering girl confidently. It had all gone according to plan! For the most part, at least.

"Of course it was me," she said, "Who else could rig a flashbang trap like that on this ship? Hopefully it'll let you know not to call me 'Minnie'!"

... Charlotte sure was blushing a lot... what was up with that? Maybe she was embarrassed to end up like this... Well, if she laid off the 'Minnie' stuff, it wouldn't happen again!

"Remember, I'm just a late bloomer!"
Yeah, I was going to have Milly head over to Charlotte after Melody answered her. ^^;

Also going to finish up Kazue's bio soon I think.
Well, basically the starfish are "Horrors" who exist as individual mindlessly violent monsters. Which would easily stem from insanity, really.

If they successfully kill something, which is why Charlotte avoids using them, they begin to merge into one entity that she can't control. It's why she doesn't use them except as a last resort.
Alright, then.
If it's single person to single person, I'd talk it over with the person you're doing it with and tell me what you have planned to be on the safe side.
