Introduction

Omen PLACEHOLDER CHARACTER STORY

Omen PLACEHOLDER GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW

Character

Strengths	Weaknesses
Fly Like An Eagle: Compensates for KI's slowest jump with the ability to glide and bail, letting him dance around anti-airs and perform dirty left-right mixups. Resource Denial: Has the ability to lock out stocks of shadow, letting him go berserk on offense without fear of shadow counters and other reversals.	In Progress

Universal Mechanics

Instinct

Shadow Gathering: Omen's advantage on everything is increased by 2. All strengths of Rashakuken fire an additional projectile. Rashakukens, Orda Shields, and Shadow Furious Flurry will lock out the opponent's shadow meter for 10 seconds.

Combat Traits

Demon Loops: Omen can follow up his auto-doubles with another auto of higher strength. Stringing 3 in a row will lock out the opponent's shadow meter for 10 seconds.

Battery Enders: All of Omen's enders give him a chunk of shadow in addition to their normal effects.

Turn all of the opponent's health into Potential Damage. Potentially the most devastating move in KI, as Omen can instantly win with a follow-up one-chance combo. Takes all 3 bars of shadow to attempt, is rather slow on startup and really slow on whiff.
