Small Peridot

[FIGHTER 2 - SMALL PERIDOT]

Losing the limb enhancers this time around, Peridot is a quick and aggressive zoner who litters the battlefield with turrets, bombs, and whatever else she can think of! Despite being a bit clumsy, (definitely egotistical) and still getting the hang of her newfound metal powers, she still packs a punch and can space quite well. Featuring custom sprites, she was a more complicated undertaking, so hopefully I did okay!

---The Gimmick---
As a zoner, Peridot's specials all spawn something to help her, which all have set amount of time they remain on stage. However, she can only have one out at a time, and spawning something whilst something else is already out will cause the older special to explode, if it already hasn't run out of time. For her normal and side specials, she can be caught in the explosions, however this is not applicable to other projectiles she has, i.e, her strong attacks. Be careful, and space around your items to wall your opponent out before running in to punish them. Peridot herself is short, which does mean her attacks may be a bit stubby, but it means that you can also squeeze under projectiles sometimes too.

---Normals and Tilts---

JAB - A three hit combo consisting to two consecutive punches, followed by a big kick away.

DASH ATTACK - Peridot trips over herself, sliding forward on her face a bit.

SIDE TILT - Peridot creeps forward slightly, then performs a high kick.

UP TILT - "Think Like The Monster."
Peridot sticks her tongue out in the air straight upwards.

DOWN TILT - Peridot kicks dust up around her.

---Strong Attacks---

SIDE STRONG - Peridot uses her metal powers to shoot a can forward. This poses no self risk to her.

DOWN STRONG - Peridot throws out a mine that stays on stage for a very short duration before detonating with a small boom. This poses no self risk to her.

UP STRONG - Peridot uses her metal powers to shoot a can straight upwards. This poses no self risk to her.

---Aerials---

NEUTRAL AIR - Peridot kicks her arms and legs out in a starfish shape.

FORWARD AIR - Peridot kicks her leg out, it remaining out for a while. It cannot be charged.

BACK AIR - Peridot throws her entire body backwards, giving a small horizontal boost.

UP AIR - Peridot performs a flipping kick.

DOWN AIR - Peridot stamps downwards, your typical spike.

---Specials---

NEUTRAL B - "That'll show them!"
Peridot spawns a floating turret, which fires four small bullets at a rate of one bullet per second, before detonating. The bullet does 1% damage with small knockback, and if Peridot is caught in the detonation, it deals 4% damage.

SIDE B - "Just wait for the kaboom!"
Peridot throws a mine onto the stage, which lingers for 5 seconds before blowing up, dealing 10% damage to anyone near it, including Peridot.

UP B - "Metal Powers!"
Peridot uses her newfound metal powers to lift herself up via a trashcan lid... but she's still getting the hang of it, meaning that it's a little harder to control, and this results in the gem accidentally falling off in the process. Fortunately, if she lands on someone as she falls, it spikes and pops her up a bit, so it has it's silver lining.

DOWN B - "EMP"
With great effort, Peridot throws an EMP onto the stage, and for 3 seconds it will emit a wave around itself that reflects projectiles. After those 3 seconds, it detonates, causing 8% damage to opponents specifically. This poses no self risk to her, and it can even hit opponents during the throw, allowing it to be a good edgeguarding tool.

---Grab and Throws---

GRAB - Peridot hooks the opponent in place with the trashcan lid.

FORWARD - Peridot heaves the opponent over her head, before chucking them.

UP - Peridot holds the opponent in the air, before pelting them with several tins.

DOWN - "Pumpkin!"
Before she has the chance to actually do anything, Pumpkin barges past the opponent.

BACK - Peridot throws the opponent behind her.

---Ultimate---

"Feel my unbridled rage!" - Full of anger, Peridot charges forward, stunning the opponent and flying off screen if it connects, before slamming back down on the opponent in the Perimech, beating down with several strikes. To cap it off, the Perimech claps it's robotic claws together, sending the opponent straight up.

---Taunt---

She laughs at you. It is Peridot afterall.

Wario is still happening, I just had more ideas for Peridot so she got made first.
