Yami Yami no: "Abhayamudra"
DPR: S
Description: the abhayamudra or 'gesture of fearlessness' is the buddhist mudra of protection and inner peace--in some martial traditions it is incorporated into their main fighting stance as a means of telling their would-be assailant 'I mean you no harm'. It is said that the Buddha used this to calm a rampaging elephant destroying a village.
After swallowing a massive quantity of atmosphere with her darkness, Joby then covers her right hand in darkness and moves to strike her opponent with an open palm, stopping just short of hitting them by inches and releasing all of the atmosphere at once as hyper-compressed gas which rapidly explodes outward from the center of her palm.
The force of this attack dissipates quickly over a distance so it is only truly effective at very close range, However, if used on a solid object such as a building, landmark, or body, the force transferred to the object will send them flying and provide a more stable medium for the energy to continue destroying everything in its path.
DPR of resulting projectiles: A
Requirements: 100 mastery, 100 durability, 100 stamina
Yami Yami no: "A Free and Easy Sleep"
DPR:---
Description: Utilizing her elemental form, Joby dodges an incoming attack by entering a bizarre 'pocket dimension' hidden within the body of all Darkness and accessible only to her. She must be in contact with an area of darkness equal or greater than her own silhouette for this technique to work. She may then reappear from the same area of darkness or another of appropriate size within her range (mastery/5 meters from where A Free and Easy Sleep is activated).
Cool-Down: 2-turns
Requires: 61 stamina and 61 mastery
yami yami no: "In the Realm of the Senses":
requirement: yami:100, stamina:100
DPR:---
effect: covering an area of 5xmastery, Joby expels a massive cloud of darkness around her which absorbs all light, smell, and sound within its domain for 1 turn. Effectively placing all within its boundary in a kind of sensory deprivation tank. CoO is unaffected. Inside Joby also loses access to these senses, but can access information of her surroundings through awareness of her being one with the darkness she creates. Lays the foundation for other techniques
Yami Yami no: "Fear Itself"
DPR: S
Description: The following turn after successfully executing the technique "In the Realm of the Senses", if Joby's target has not left the area cast within her Darkness by the end of the previous turn--then they will be 'primed' for this technique. By striking and grabbing hold of her target's head with terrifying force, the entire area of Darkness from the Realm of the Senses condenses upon the sensory organs of her target (most commonly their entire head) enclosing them in a somehow even darker Darkness than before. Anyone not targeted by Fear Itself who had spent the previous turn within the Realm of the Senses, will have to RP being temporarily incapacitated by the rush of sensory information returning to them all at once (think Solar Flare).
If this technique succeeds, then the target's brain--growing restless from being completely cut off from physical sensory input--will begin creating its own through auditory, tactical, and visual hallucinations. If their mind is at rest and peaceful, the hallucinations will be mild and somewhat pleasant in nature. However if their mind is disturbed by pain, tension, anxiety, or adrenaline, then they must RP the hallucinations being terrifying and convincing Night Terrors brought to life from the deepest parts of their subconscious. The effects will last for 1 turn.
This technique primes a single target for another which must be performed the following turn or the darkness consuming her opponent's head will disperse slowly into dust--allowing the target to regain their senses without getting overstimulated.
Requires: 100 stamina, 100 mastery, and 100 strength.
