Alyss' light weapons

Fists

Since in the real martial art world, once you're a black belt or a master in any martial art, you have to register yourself offically as a weapon, so will Alyss. Alyss is a great and agile close quarters combat fighter and a majority of her attacks will be by a mixture of martial arts. She is well-rounded in plenty martial arts...and there will probably be more editted in this list. Here are the arts she knows of:

Karate: Shotokan : Shotokan is based mainly upon hard techniques versus soft techniques. This style is shown by Hitomi from DOA and a small amount in Hayate as well. The video below is from the Champion Gaming Series Tournament from 2008 and the reason why I picked this video is because the excellent use of Hitomi by Vanessa. If you're looking to just looking for a quick look at an example, you could go on Youtube to find crappier uses of Hitomi by other players.



Aikido: Aikido is a defensive martial art, usually consisting of using the other opponent's attacks to counter by throws, grapples, holds, flips, etc. It can be very damaging to the opponent by using these moves, esspecially with intense drops of gravity. Using grabs at small bones, such as the wrist, finger, or shoulder bones, Alyss is able to use put opponents in holds to get an advantage or stop a fight. Though Aikido is a very good martial art, it's downfall is that there is no such thing as an attack with Aikido. The moveset is based upon counters and there is no such thing as a punch or a kick in this martial art.


Xi Yi Quan: This bare handed style is a very strong form of Chinese martial arts. It is performed with linear movements and explosive strength. If in roleplay, Alyss performs a punch with Xi Yi Quan, it means the air compression applied in the hand is VERY strong and if hit with this extremely powerful move can be quite fatal. I knew about this martial art before finding out that Eliot from DOA uses it...but since I couldn't find a video with REAL people doing this martial art, I have to use another DOA reference to my distaste. =/


More to come in the Martial Arts section, I just can't find a specific video.

Light Weapons

The only thing Alyss carries so far is a knife at her waist. These are knives meant for both throwing, parrying, and agile knife play. Alyss, along with martial arts, is prominent with knife play and she only has a personal knife of her own so far. Her personal knife is a Aikuchi Style (very high carboned weapons) forged Moroha (or double bladed) Tanto.

Nice examples. Glad you took the time to go find some.

Oh shit Eliot pwns hard as hell on that game

*whistles* That's some pretty good examples there! I'd thought I was the only one who uses the real martial arts for my character, now I'm glad that I'm not the only one. XD

I would update my stuff like yours, but I'm too lazy to do so right now so maybe later lol

Thanks everyone, I worked pretty hard on researching everything perfectly. I'm just glad I enjoy lookig this stuff up and am interested in it or I wouldn't have gone out and done it. xD

Yes. If you know how to use him right, yes he fucking does.

Me personnaly I, pwn with Bass, Zack and jane lee, but when i play with eliot i cant get the combos right like they should be

funny we were talking fights last night XD

Juan Lee is hilarious to fight with, and Zack too. For me, Hayate, Eliot, Helena, And Hayabusa.

XD That we were Fubuki, that we were.

I'm more of a random choice when it comes to DOA since I rarely have a favorite character in that series. Eliot is pretty powerful, but you also have to be very precisive when you want to use his combos

Oh I will pwn the shit out of someone with Helina those boots were made stonping

my best DOA character is i think the name was christian, christe? either way the girl with the white hair

((Move this to Hot Topic or someplace..))

Rawr well on to...what my weapons are about.. =|
