[Phen]

Lial

The blizzard bearing down on them was a huge detriment to their vision, making fighting the Fang's forces all the more difficult. Lial's weapon formed in hand, cracks that joined pieces together aglow with flame which poured from his body into the weapon. Standing nearby in formation around his axe wielding ally and darting in and out of the fight. His weapon changing shape to a smaller bladed devoid of the weight his previous form provided, and his speed let him close the distance and let loose a gout of flame on his swing before retreating back.

==============================

HP: 416/650
VP: 42/85
SP: 70
DP: 29
FG: 8/48
AP: 2

Frenzy: Can only link attacks up to the second level (Link 1--->Link 2--->End). Attacks inflict +75 Damage. Steel boosts damage by 40% instead of 30%.
Special Forces 2nd: Damage +100%

Cyclone Blade: Bone Crusher
Description: Running at his opponent at full speed, Lial prepares one of his faster attacks. Lial drags his blade along the ground in a very precise manner so that the blade sharpens for a time before lifting it up and moving forward with a burst of speed. As he approaches his opponent, he swings his blade in a full circle, catching with it anything unfortunate enough to be in the vicinity. Afterwords, with his muscles used to a heavier weight than before for a short time, He temporarily gains the ability to move much faster than before.
Damage: 330
Effect: Causes Lial to be affected by Lighten and Steel next turn, Cannot be used when Affected by Poison

Cyclone Blade: Splitting Moon
Description: At the height of ascent, Lial grips his blade in both hands and a bright glow begins to form at the cracks. The energy soon works its way to the edge of the blade and Lial cracks it against the air, sending a shock wave of slicing wind outward.
Damage: 210
Effect: Chains from Bone Crusher. SP applies to this attack at at 50% strength for each status effect on Lial. For first time an opponent uses VP this turn, they must use Lial's VP ratios.

Cyclone Blade: Tri Strike
Three consecutive strikes from opposing angles compound to overwhelm the adversary
Damage: 178 x3
Effect: Chains from Twin Moons. Hits three times. Every third time this attack would be used, it may compose every attack in a chain it would be a part of.

Flame Blade: Ignite
Description: The variable blade shifts and reveals a series of sigils down its center. Lial brings the blade to a back swing before the blade turns a glowing red and ignites along the swing, sending a wave of flames while Lial seems empowered by the heat.
Damage: 330
Effect: If Affected by all 4 basic positive status effects (Lighten, Steel, Faith, Amnesty), Choose one: [Increase the duration of all currently active status effects by 1 turn]|[next turn Lial is unaffected by negative effects, reduce the duration of one basic positive status effect by 1 turn per negative effect.] | Otherwise, Lial is affected by Faith and Amnesty next turn. This attack and attacks in a chain that contains this attack may optionally deal fire damage.

Flame Blade: Immolation
Harnessing heat from within, wisps of flame surround the blade. A piercing strike imbues a predatory flame.
Damage: 300
Effect: Chains from Ignite. On the turn this attack is used, an opponent who benefits from non-attack, non-VP ability with a conditional or activated effect suffers this attack's damage as fire damage up to a maximum of twice.

Flame Blade: Stoke
Flames within flare and grow. Heat ever rising, pushing beyond limits. Releasing a swath of flame.
Damage: 330
Effect: Chains from Immolation. Lial may choose one basic status effect (Lighten, Steel, Faith, Amnesty) to be affected by next turn. If he is already affected by the status effect when Stoke is used, it instead improves the status with an additional effect until it wears off. Lighten: One attack per chain gains an additional hit. Steel: One attack per chain benefits from SP an additional time. Faith: SP is added to DP. Amnesty: Lial recovers 10 VP each turn.

Lighten Chosen

[Zet]

*The more valiant among them had made their way to them. Some of the soldiers advanced first to meet the opposition, the gout of flames driving back the first while the supports were held off by another. The cleaving spell brushed aside another while the salvo struck another and brought him to the edge of his life, but not over the edge yet. The leader of this crew would step up to meet the attacks himself moving forward, Zet moving forward to contend with the axe wielding man and the spells alike. At this distance it was clear now that he was carrying someone over his shoulder, but he didn't slow down in the least from that nor let it hinder his decision making. The others wouldn't attack as his sword told them to stay their hand, but bringing it down to clash with the axe resulted in another series of explosions. The first clash had pushed back Zet himself, not quite able to fend off the attacks yet. He would remedy that with the following strike, the burning weapon slamming down with utmost force to drive back the spells and enemies alike as ashes and ice danced in the air about him, swirling about to protect him from further harm. If the man in front didn't bear the brunt of the attack, it would ripple out and wipe out the enemy ranks in one fell swoop from the devastating power behind it that only grew with every swing.*

*It was Luke's turn to perform now, breathing in and out as the energy gathered to him like a thin veil about his body before it started to expand outward as if a skull were behind him. He would draw his sword, cutting through the air before he would do two more simple strikes of similar vein, sheathing the weapon as the energy burst out a second time, drawing again with rekindled strength as the strength behind the blows dwarfed what the younger was capable of, but were more focused on a single victim to be devastated by the attacks, aiming toward the spellweaver in particular. The rate at which their growth would be expedited would do the rest for them now that they had begun and ramped up, Luke to his limit while Zet would keep pushing onward as required of him.*

[Wraith]

The axe wielder would stand stalwart between both, but not for much longer as he managed to isolate the attack to bring himself to his knees. The brothers were strong enough to not need any further assistance and while he had reached the crest of his power, he had to wonder how he would strike before the younger struck again. He was poised to do so even when he was held back by the woman that he carried and the whipping blizzard at his behest allowed him to steer the long-distance attacks where he desired while acting in time for any melee attacks while they were slowed down. This would have to be where they made their mark, letting out a bellow as the scars on his mask began to glow not unlike Zet had seen in fights prior to this one. His size belied his speed but not his strength as he lifted the axe up and brought it down just as quickly, shattering the ground beneath them and sending off a storm of debris in an attempt to settle this battle in one fell swoop while the others unleashed their spells. Red would need more time to ramp himself up and likewise unleash his potential, but as things stood that wouldn't happen in time if this level of aggression was maintained. Would they be able to elude the explosions that would follow? It was up to the 2nd Special Forces Leader to determine that and make it a possibility. They were sticking back during the fighting in order to disengage as necessary, but it looked like that might not be possible if their range of operation was this large. It would have to be time to cut some losses instead now that things had escalated to this point. If the plan was successful, then...

[Phen]

Immediately clear with the first clash between 3rd's axe and the royal's blade was the scale of power they were dealing with. While the infantry he fought were skilled enough, the force in the clash pushed he and 2nd away from the epicenter, radiating out from the point of impact. His heat was more quickly able to reach its average level and flare beyond even, warding from the biting cold that surrounded the clash itself. Naturally however, the retaliation of a claw warrior was never to be underestimated, and the 3rd's superhuman burst of strength made way for potential openings with in their line.

Lial takes the opportunity in the clash to continue to heat up tearing into the front line. 3rd could only hold the line for a short time, so he would need to act quickly. Blade engulfed in flame in hand he blazed through the blizzard with gouts of flame and decisive thrusts, bolstering the flames upon his body as it roared as a beacon within the dense snow and ice. Fragments of his blade danced about him in protection, but as his battle sense filled him, he couldn't help but notice the sheer difference in power. Even among the catastrophic clashes, he was looking for a tactical retreat point. A shared glance with 2nd's commander among the battle conveyed a plan in motion, which was far better than nothing at all. As usual, he would wait for the opportunity to be made before him, be that retreat or a final stand, and take it without hesitation.

Flame Blade: Ignite
Description: The variable blade shifts and reveals a series of sigils down its center. Lial brings the blade to a back swing before the blade turns a glowing red and ignites along the swing, sending a wave of flames while Lial seems empowered by the heat.
Damage: 420 x2 FIRE
Effect: If Affected by all 4 basic positive status effects (Lighten, Steel, Faith, Amnesty), Choose one: [Increase the duration of all currently active status effects by 1 turn]|[next turn Lial is unaffected by negative effects, reduce the duration of one basic positive status effect by 1 turn per negative effect.] | Otherwise, Lial is affected by Faith and Amnesty next turn. This attack and attacks in a chain that contains this attack may optionally deal fire damage.

Flame Blade: Immolation
Harnessing heat from within, wisps of flame surround the blade. A piercing strike imbues a predatory flame.
Damage: 408 x2 FIRE

Flames within flare and grow. Heat ever rising, pushing beyond limits. Releasing a swath of flame.
Damage: 420 x2 FIRE
Effect: Chains from Immolation. Lial may choose one basic status effect (Lighten, Steel, Faith, Amnesty) to be affected by next turn.

Giant's Swing: Gravity Core
Description: Lial flexes the muscles in his arms and legs and prepares a great attack. Crouching down, Lial jumps up toward his opponent, his giant blade behind him. Upon reaching the height of his jump, Lial swings his blade over his head, and with great force, brings it down upon his opponent, the force of his fall being enhanced by the sheer weight of his blade. The sheer focus required by this attack however leaves Lial unable to think straight for a short time after using the attack.

[Zet]

"Impressive."

*It wasn't often that someone was on the opposing end of both of them while the spell was in effect and able to muster this much strength in retaliation. There were three among them that showed their mettle, the two Scars and the other who produced such flames from his blade. It was unorthodox and stood out even among the Claw's rank and file. But he had offered them enough praise, now was time to return an eye for an eye given what direction they came from and what that could only mean, a violent sneer coming to his face as he again raised his sword to strike down to meet the opening strike of the Claw's Scar. It was still tough enough to penetrate his veil of annihilation, but not even that would be enough when he brought the sword back up, sending loose another wave that would overwhelm the opposing member and swallow him whole to open way for the ones behind him, turning on heel as he brought his sword along the air, letting loose a chain of explosions in a sweeping area as he swept them all up, not allowing any chance to retort or counterattack any longer. With his current momentum he could amplify the blizzard further, it being the doom for those that hadn't made it to the eye of the storm like the ones here had.*

[Wraith]

The unyielding force tore through the earthen assault and devoured flames and spells alike. He would have to activate the jewels once more, the veil coating him and the others, but being torn through just the same. They would be scattered about the field and picked up by the blizzard to be tossed about, the members of the 2nd bested but at least among the living as they would lose sight of those from the 3rd. It had been a valiant effort, but it would take more than that in order to halt the royals. The fate of those who were bested in battle was up to those same royals now, even as their priority was to conclude their retreat as of this moment.
