Cloud

Cloud Strife, Soldier 1st class, is back again to break every limit in rivals of aether. Cloud has been almost entirely reworked, from his normals, to his specials and even his central gimmicks. Cloud is a versatile sword fighter who can dish out heavy damage and promote almost any playstyle thanks to his plethora of spells.

SPECIALS:
--------------------------------------------------------


Nspecial: Spell
--------------------------------------------------------

Casts the currently chosen spell. Each spell has differing effects, damage, range, and MP costs.

"fire": A straightforward projectile that deals good damage and ignites opponents upon impact. Costs 10 MP.

"bolt": Calls down a bolt of lightning in front of Cloud. Pops opponents into the air and can be cancelled into from a jab. Costs 15 MP

"ice": Creates a small blizzard in front of cloud that continuously deals damage and builds up the "ice" status as long as the special button is held. When the bar fills, the opponent will be "frozen"; greatly reducing their movement and jump speed while also dealing damage over time. Costs 1 MP per tick.

"haste": Grants Cloud a buff that increases the rate he regenerates MP both passively and on hit, the amount of limit he builds, and the ability to cancel Fspecial into Uspecial and limit breaks. Costs 40 MP.

"wind": Creates a small burst of wind that deals no damage or hitstun but pushes opponents back a great distance. Costs 15 MP.

"cure": Instantly heals Cloud for 10% damage. Costs 30 MP.

"death": Shoots out a small projectile that has a small chance to instantly kill an opponent regardless of damage.
Costs 75 MP

"demi": Creates a black hole in front of Cloud that pulls nearby opponents in. after a short duration, the black hole will collapse, dealing significant damage to anyone inside it. Costs 30 MP.

"bio": Launches a bouncing orb that poisons opponents on contact; dealing damage over time. Costs 20 MP.

"flare": Fires a slow moving but exceptionally powerful orb of fire that deals massive damage and ignites opponents on contact. Costs 30 MP.

Fspecial: Focused thrust
--------------------------------------------------------

Cloud lunges forward with his buster sword, hitting multiple times.


*NEW* Dspecial: Limit break
--------------------------------------------------------

Uses Clouds limit break depending on his current limit level.

Level 0: No effect

Level 1: "Blade beam": fires a multi-hitting beam of energy forward.

Level 2: "Cross slash": Performs a 3 hit slash combo that deals high knockback.

Level 3: "Meteorain": fires a volley of 6 meteors downwards. These meteors explode upon contact with either an enemy or terrain.

Level 4: "Omnislash": Cloud lunges forward with his buster sword. If he hits an enemy he will unleash a devastating series of slashes culminating with an explosive downward slash.


Uspecial: Braver
--------------------------------------------------------

Cloud stabs forward and then slices upwards. This attack can be followed up for an additional third hit by pressing special again.


Unique Mechanic: Limit bar, MP bar, and the spell menu
----------------------------------------------------------------------------



Cloud has 2 resources above his HUD; the Limit bar and the MP bar. Cloud uses his MP to cast spells, with each spell having a different cost. If a spell cannot be used, the MP bar will be red, otherwise it will be blue. Cloud's MP regenerates automatically at a slow rate, but he can also build it by dealing damage to an opponent. Both of these effects are greatly increased under the effect of haste.

The Limit bar builds whenever Cloud deals or receives damage. Each time he fills the limit bar, he will gain a limit level. The limit level affects which limit break he will use with Dspecial.

The spell menu is accessed by pressing taunt while grounded. you can select a new spell by moving the cursor and then pressing attack or special when you are hovering over the desired spell. You can also shield out of the spell menu.
