Description: Morrigan focuses wholly on her opponent, honing in on a point of weakness and the path to take her to it. With blinding speed, she closes the distance, deftly avoiding harm until she’s close enough to cleave a heavy wound into them with her bare hand.
Description: Morrigan focuses her internal energy to the point of bursting, diverting it to the point of impact when she strikes and letting it explode outward the moment after, amplifying her power at the moment of impact.
TP Allocation: 3 TP Power Increase Total stats: 40% Power, 2 KP
Technique Type: Utility Technique Name: Ki Suppression
Description: Skilled control over your ki allows you to suppress your base Power Level to a minimum of 1 PL to either hide or use this lower PL to fight characters weaker than your full strength on even footing. Whatever PL you end up suppressing to, it acts as though you were at that level normally for all mechanics interactions. You may choose if transformation multipliers change this Power Level. This technique is passive and does not require KP use.
TP Allocation: None Total stats: None
Tech Slot: None Items Used: Ki for Dummies 9.3 Update!
Swapping out General Traits: Giving Up: Hunter For: Raw Talent

The new Quick Learner Update has made it possible for Ticoga to apply for three new techs! Additionally -- I am WAY overdue to correct Ticoga's Defensive Sparking!
Old Technique Medium Defensive Sparking Technique || Shield of Arcose Description: Ticoga raises his hands, and creates a huge shimmering wall of Ki that acts as a powerful barrier between an incoming attack and himself. An incredibly powerful defense reserved for only the most dire of situations. Power: 40% Cost: 2KP - 4MP Variants: Shield - Your technique will reduce any bleed-through from a failed defense by 30%, if your PL is within 60% of the attack's remaining PL. Stress Test - For every technique targeting the user of this technique, it gains +10% power, to a maximum of +40%. Cannot be paired with Evasive. Tech Slot: Sparking 100,000
Updating to:
Medium Defensive Sparking Technique || Shield of Arcose Description: Ticoga raises his hands, and creates a huge shimmering wall of Ki that acts as a powerful barrier between an incoming attack and himself. An incredibly powerful defense reserved for only the most dire of situations. Power: 40% Cost: 2KP - 4MP Variants: Shield - Your technique will reduce any bleed-through from a failed defense by 30%, if your PL is within 60% of the attack's remaining PL. Expansion: After initiating your technique, you enter the Charging state for up to two turns, after the turn you initiated it. Your technique gains +50% for each turn spent in the Charging state.
This takes your defense action on the turn it is initiated but not the turn it is fired, provided they are different turns. On the turn it is fired you do not generate MP from the technique.
This can be clashed with early with any attack technique. This will end Charging immediately, but allies may intercept this early clash. The technique can only be boosted on the turn it is fired. Tech Slot: Sparking 100,000
Technique Type: Heavy Attack Technique Technique Name: Evisceration Chaser
Description: Ticoga fires an Evisceration Beam from each of his fingertips! These crimson, pencil-thin Ki beams chase after the opponent, leaving them unable to avoid it!
TP Allocation: 1TP - Homing, 4TP - Power Total stats: Power: 110% Cost: 6KP Variant(s): Homing: Your technique completely ignores Defensive Techniques of the same or lower tier that have the Evasive Variant. When used against a higher tier Evasive Variant, Homing attacks instead gain 20% to their power. This Variant costs 1 TP.
Tech Slot: 146,000 Items Used: --
Technique Type: Heavy Attack Technique Technique Name: Spark of Supernova
Description: Ticoga focuses his power, and a shimmering crimson glitter forms over his palm - this energy then melds with the power of his allies' techniques, empowering immensely! Alternatively, if this attack receives power from ally attacks, a gigantic Supernova energy ball will form and fall upon the enemy!
TP Allocation: 2TP - Merging, 3TP - Power Total stats: Power: 100,000 Cost: 6KP Variant(s): Merging: Your technique may combine with up to two other techniques with this Variant. These techniques will be considered as a single technique for damage calculations, and may carry a single additional variant from one of the techniques used to merge.
Tech Slot: 151,000 Items Used: --
Technique Type: Heavy Attach Technique Technique Name: Death Bomber
Description: Ticoga raises his palms over his head, and forms a powerful, sun-like ball of energy! He hurls it at his target, and upon its explosion, the resulting flare of energy will form as a bolt of lightning, and rush towards a second target!!
TP Allocation: 1TP - Splash, 2TP - Sniper Total stats: Power: 90% Cost: 6KP Variant(s): Splash: Choose one character other than the target when you fire this technique. If the primary target of the technique is dealt at least 10% damage, it launches an additional technique at the chosen character equal to 20% of the technique's power. Do not apply variants to this additional technique. This variant costs 1 TP.
Sniper: Your technique gains +60% power if intercepted by another player. In addition, if intercepted, this technique will nullify non-evasive standard variants (except for Distance and Stasis) on a defensive technique clashing with it if said defensive technique is not of a tier higher than this technique.
Tech Slot: 158,000 Items Used: --
These following technique is changing due to TP cost changing!
Medium Attack Technique || Death Chaser Description: Ticoga fires multiple thin beams of Ki at his target, up to five (one for each finger), and each shot follows after the target! Power: 40% Cost: 3KP Variant: Homing - Your technique completely ignores Defensive Techniques of the same or lower tier that have the Evasive Variant. When used against a higher tier Evasive Variant, Homing attacks instead gain 20% to their power. Tech Slot: 49,000
Changing to

When used against a higher tier Evasive Variant, Homing attacks instead gain 20% to their power. Tech Slot: 49,000
Homing's TP has been reduced from 2TP to 1TP. This leaves me with 1TP remaining, since 2TP was used to reduce the tech cost before. This Tech has received a 10% boost to its Power.

Quick Learner's change has granted Bane a new Technique!

The following are changing due to TP costs changing!

When used against a higher tier Evasive Variant, Homing attacks instead gain 20% to their power.
Changed to
Medium Attack Technique || Grand Chaser Majin Halluc fires a beachball-sized sphere of ki at the target - which proceeds to chase them down!! Power: 70% KP Cost: 4KP Variant: Homing - Your technique completely ignores Defensive Techniques of the same or lower tier that have the Evasive Variant. When used against a higher tier Evasive Variant, Homing attacks instead gain 20% to their power. This Variant costs 1TP.
This technique is changing, because I WHOLLY misunderstood Sugar Coating. I thought it only affected ONE technique at CHARACTER creation - point and laugh folks, point and laugh...
Light Defense Technique || Majin Regeneration Halluc takes an attack head on. While still able to be damaged, if part of Halluc is destroyed, he regenerates the flesh quickly! Power: 40% KP Cost: 2KP
Changing to
Light Defense Technique || Majin Regeneration Halluc takes an attack head on. While still able to be damaged, if part of Halluc is destroyed, he regenerates the flesh quickly! Power: 50% Sugar Coating KP Cost: 2KP
Technique Type: Medium Defense Technique Technique Name: Counterplay
Description: Karach forms a strangely shimmering green/blue bubble around himself in defense - if shattered, the bubble will send needle-sharp energy shards at the opponent! These shards deal no damage to the flesh, but instead attack the strength of the foe!
TP Allocation: 2TP - Sticky, 2TP - Spiteful Total stats: Power: 40% Cost: 4KP Variant(s): Sticky: If your technique is defeated, you take at least 20% damage, and are no weaker than 60% of your opponent's PL, inflict the Exhausted Status on one character who overcame your technique.
Spiteful: If your technique is defeated and you take at least 20% damage, gain the Emboldened Status. The technique you use this stack of Emboldened on can only be an offensive technique.
Whew, 9.3 is a Doosey, So the following is changing:
Himna is trading Raw Talent for Wealthy because I like money and Tunic can't supply that anymore
Maker's Mark (Max Power) got an errata
[SPT] Maker's Mark At the point of creation, each weapon was given a unique mark. A symbol bearing the regard of The Smith. In this mark lies vestiges of power that only draw forth in moments of desperation. When tapped into, little changed visually across the instrument, but the weight of the souls within are more manifest than ever before, creating a palpable disparity in how the instrument may feel to those around it.
Maker's Mark must be your post's first action and requires at least 1 MP to activate. While active; it empowers your Techniques by +10% and drains 1MP at the start of each turn, you cannot naturally gain MP unless specified by a trait, you can't block escapes, use Evasive or Escape techniques, or defend others. It can only be deactivated as the last action on a post BUT only on your next post or later. If you hit 0 MP for any reason, Maker's Mark ends immediately and you gain the Winded status effect.
WINDED [DEBUFF] When applied, you are unable to gain Momentum Points (MP) on your current turn or the following turn.
Full Sauce Clause: In addition, Max Power no longer drains momentum, instead you can gain up to 1 MP naturally per turn, and you may intercept attacks that target others.
Tunic lost Deep Pockets since it no longer exists
Tunic lost Cash Money since it no longer exists
Because Tunic is completely disabled on Trait usage we will give her the following:

Took a big fat L this patch so need to rework everything again aaaaaaaa
Swapping Itty Bitty to Underdog
Self-Sacrifice is being changed to Wealthy
I'm also making a couple of changes to my technique list due to the alterations made to how certain variants function.
Technique Type: Light Defense Technique Name: Minor Overreaction
Description: With a sudden burst of ki brought on by a strong desire to not end up skewered for the umpteenth time, Tarine narrowly dodges out of the way of an oncoming attack.
TP Allocation: 2 TP Cost Reduction, 1 TP Evasive Variant (-1 TP due to Light Strategist) Total stats: 50%, 1KP, Evasive Variant
Tech Slot: 20k slot Items Used: N/A
Doesn't exist anymore! Evasive's interaction with techniques that cost 1KP was nerfed so I'm replacing it with this:

I'm also giving into peer pressure and updating my minion to be in line with the 9.x series of updates instead of nuking them into a non-mechanical state (for now)
Cores ALIEN PROWESS Extraterrestrial: Twice per thread, you may add a sparking variant to a non-sparking technique. Preparation or Expansion added this way reduce the technique's initial power by -20%. Techniques cannot have more than two variants at a time. Variant Booster requires the accompanying Standard Variant as per regular technique rules but gain a +10% bonus to its initial power.
ALIEN STURDINESS Hardy: Your total HP threshold is increased by +60%. Critical Damage will still defeat you at its normal rate. Wounds only reduce your HP threshold by -50% instead of -100%.
Optional GALAXY BRAIN You may use up to three Defense Actions OR Attack Actions in a single post. This is thrice per thread, and is only usable on Standard Techniques.
(Unchanged outside of descriptions being updated)
General Traits TENACIOUS >> EAGLE EYED By spending at least one turn with no KP action to focus on a single target, you may glean their true current PL through the veil of Energy Suppression and Energy Setting, but not Antisense.
Additionally, your Offensive Techniques gain +20% power against Escape Techniques.
RESTRAINED MIGHT (unchanged) Gain a bonus of +10% to all techniques when fighting below your current strongest transformation.
Additionally, when you transform into your strongest form for the first time, you may spend momentum in increments of 2 to regain KP at a cost of 2 MP to 1 KP.
Technique Type: Medium Sparking Defense Technique Name: Destroying Angel
Description: A technique Portobello has been developing in secret ever since she decided to settle down on Earth as a culmination of what she has learned over the course of her travels. Repurposing the "spores" created via her Puffball technique, a slight shiver knocks them loose from her fur and seems to bathe her in a soft white glow to any onlookers. They then hungrily work to absorb as much energy as they can from any incoming attacks to the point of bursting. If she acts quickly, Portobello can take advantage of this trait and send the cloud along with her next attack to give it more of a kick.
Went through her techs and I think this is the only one that absolutely needs to be changed as Careful no longer exists as a variant so it is being swapped out.
