Sui-Sui No Mi: Liquid Battlefield Style
![This post has in-line assessment comments.](https://i.servimg.com/u/f60/18/75/26/17/clipbo10.png)
Sui-Sui No Mi (Swim-Swim Fruit)
Devil Fruit: Sui-Sui No Mi (Swim-Swim Fruit)
Devil Fruit Type: Paramecia
Devil Fruit Appearance: The General shape of the Sui-Sui no Mi was that of a Mango, which had several brown and red swirls throughout the flesh of the fruit itself. The mango itself seemed not to have a stem or seed, and was generally a sweet tasting fruit, having no different taste to denote its powers. The only difference was the texture, which was simultaneously grainy and slimy.
Devil Fruit Description: The Sui-Sui No Mi is a Paramecia type Devil Fruit that allows the user to 'swim' and/or assimilate themselves into physical substances such as the ground or walls. While within these substances, they take on the properties of liquid with a wide range of viscosities. However, it has recently been discovered that the amount of body that needs to be in contact to activate this effect is very small, as one can simply 'dip' their hand into a substance and trigger these effects, or submerge their entire form. With enough focus, one can even stretch the liquidizing power out and away from themselves. It should be noted that anything that is worn by, attached to, or being held by the user is also able to move through these substances with the same ease.
Fighting Style: Liquid Battlefield Style
Weapon Utilization: Long Blades and Explosives
Description: To make the Battlefield a liquid that bends to your will is the ultimate goal of every serious combatant. For Alexa however, this goal is a very true reality. Utilizing the power of the Sui-Sui No Mi, Alexa is capable of submerging herself into any solid substance large enough to hold her, and is capable of travelling through it as if it were water. This can even apply to living things--including people. However, this does not mean she can simply pinpoint the weak points of the body and use her ability to destroy them. Damage the living being she is 'swimming' through? Yes. But she has found herself unable to use her powers to the point of being able to completely dismember someone or destroy their vital points.
The degree of her submersion ability can vary immensely, depending on what she wants to achieve. She is more than capable of moves that will create cover by simply utilizing the way that surfaces react to her powers to shape things to her will. This is her primary method of defense. Offense however, is an entirely different story.
For Alexa, everything solid is capable of acting as if it were liquid, so her combat is emphasized by this fact. Many of her melee attacks involve moving through the ground in some manner or another to build momentum or place traps. The most typical attacks utilizing this ability involve sinking into the ground and surfacing quickly to a totally different location, or even literally slipping through cover to attempt to stab a target. For Alexa, there is no such thing as cover from her attacks. Only the ability to dodge. For that reason, she has also taken to the use of explosives, so as to make her attacks even harder to truly dodge.
Passive Abilities:
The World's Your Ocean: Over the course of her years of possessing the power of the Sui Sui No Mi, the fruit's most basic ability has become all but second nature to Alexa, to the point where she can often be seen walking through walls or even dropping through floors, all of which will simply flow around her as if she had walked under a waterfall or dropped into a pool. This can only be done because the application of the ability has become instinctive. Should she come up to a wall that is not made of sea stone, she can simply walk through it. Same goes for a floor and falling through it. Strangely enough, this also allows her to seemingly defy gravity and move up walls or across vertical surfaces such as ceilings. To achieve this, however requires her to mimic swimming.
Toggled Abilities:
Techniques
- Light Techniques:
Pop Up Slash
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 2 post
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: This technique is the most basic concept of the Liquid Battlefield style. This technique can be used at close to medium range, and has two different uses to reflect this. At close range, the activation of this technique suddenly turns the ground just beneath Alexa into a liquid state, causing her to suddenly drop beneath it as if she was trying to stand on water before solidifying above her once fully submerged. Once the substance solidifies, a ripple of liquid material will trail from that spot and Alexa will breach the surface, popping up from behind her opponent and slashing at her opponent once the surface has been breached. When using this technique at range, Alexa will drop through the ground as normal, but the liquid material ripple will be stretched over a greater distance before she pops up behind her opponent.
Reformation: Wall
Technique Type: Canceller
Cooldown: 2 posts
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A simple defensive technique, Reformation: Wall is an ability that utilizes Alexa's capability to liquidize and then manipulate any solid substance in order to create cover. To do this, Alexa channels the power of her devil fruit into a single foot and stomps down hard on the ground. This causes the ground to simultaneously liquidize and splash upwards as one would expect from the surface of a liquid being disrupted. Alexa then immediately pulls her leg away, causing the substance to solidify immediately. To do this at range, Alexa will use grenades and her own focus to extend her reach outwards. Of course, this increases her defensive capabilities, but in creating a wall between herself and an opponent, it decreases her attack power by the same degree due to necessitating attacking through the barrier.
Special Grenade: High Explosive
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 2 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the variety of higher level grenades that Alexa has access to. This special grenade is shaped like a cylinder, much like every other grenade that she uses. What makes this grenade unique is its heft. This is caused by the fact that it has far more powder packed into a thinner casing, allowing for the damaging element of this grenade to be the actual explosion, rather than the shrapnel that can be found in her base grenades. These grenades are typically thrown. However, should she find something portable to launch these grenades further..then that might become a different story.
River Slash
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 2 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: Where Pop Up Slash was a technique created for use as a close to mid range type of attack, River Slash is different. River Slash, unlike Pop Up Slash, holds its power not at close range, but at long range. Like Pop Up Slash, activation of this ability will have Alexa suddenly drop into the ground, fully submerging. Like with pop up slash, Alexa's swimming through the water creates a trail of liquid matter at the surface. However, when she finally is within range of her opponent, Alexa will selectively cancel her powers around her feet, giving her a solid mass to push off of, allowing her to rapidly breach the surface and utilize the momentum she has gained to deliver a very quick frontal slash. This is typically only employed by Alexa when an enemy is entrenched in cover.
Battlefield Formation: Earthen Sickle
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 2 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: After much observation of dedicated swordsmen and their ability to send flying slashes out from their blades, Alexa has decided to take a page from their book, and put a twist on it utilizing her own powers. Upon use of this technique, Alexa will focus her devil fruit's power into whatever hand is holding the weapon she plans to use, and proceeds to slash at the surface that will be used to launch the Earthen Sickle. As she slashes, she dials back her power, causing the material to start to solidify as it is flung away from her, creating a high speed slash of solid material that tears through the origin material, giving her a ranged attack that can be utilized at any angle.
Special Grenade: Psycho
Technique Type: Stat Morph
Cooldown: 6 Posts
Duration: 2 Posts
Buffs: 25% Defense Buff (Self or Ally)
Debuffs: N/A
Description: An experimental grenade created with the assistance of the good Doctor Coranthal, the Psycho grenade is another of Alexa's more support based grenades. Like Doctor's Orders, it is an Aerosol based grenade, and is used in the same way: Pull the pin and throw to assist an ally, or pull the pin and hold it to use it on herself. The haze created by this grenade however is a light red, rather than green.
- Medium Techniques:
Battlefield Formation: Spike
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 4 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A simple technique that utilizes Alexa's ability to liquidize solid substances in an offensive manner. The Spike formation is created when Alexa channels her Devil Fruit's power into one hand, shoving a grenade into the liquidized earth that is created when she makes contact with it, while also forcing the liquid to move around her hand in such a way that it creates a current that allows the grenade to travel away from her, creating a ripple of liquid material as it goes. Once the grenade starts to detonate, Alexa pulls her hand back from the ground, causing the resulting explosion of material to solidify into the shape of a spike.
Special Grenade: Firebomb
Technique Type: DoT
Cooldown: 4 posts
Duration: 5 posts
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: The most unique of Alexa's grenades in terms of appearance, the firebomb takes on the same uniform shape as the rest of her grenades: A cylinder. However, unlike the rest of her grenades, Alexa's Firebomb grenades are made entirely of tinted glass, and carry a small amount of black powder held in place over oil, the two connected by the same internal wick as the rest of her grenades have. Upon being thrown, the wick will start burning, and eventually the grenade will explode into a small fireball upon impact.
Battlefield Formation: Wave
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 4 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A technique that would on paper seem to push the limits of Alexa's ability to liquidize solid matter, this technique is simple, in spite of its flashy nature. To activate this technique, Alexa focuses the power of her devil fruit around her arm from her fingertips up to her elbow after pulling a high powered grenade out of her belt. She then proceeds to shove her arm up to her elbow into the surface she wishes to use as the catalyst for this ability, pulling the pin and leaving the grenade in place before pulling her arm out of the surface and placing both hands atop it, forcing her influence outwards as far as she can reach. When this grenade detonates, it causes a large amount of this liquid material to surge forward rapidly. Once this attack hits or misses, Alexa will remove her hands from the surface that was used as the catalyst.
Special Grenade: Doctor's Orders
Technique Type: Heal
Cooldown: 6 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: The first of several special grenades developed with the assistance of the good Doctor Coranthal, Doctor's Orders is an aerosol based grenade that generates a special type of gas that is able to accelerate one's natural healing by a fairly impressive degree. To use this grenade, Alexa can either pull the pin and throw it to assist an ally, or merely pull the pin and hold it in her hand as a large haze of light green smoke surrounds her.
- Heavy Techniques:
Special Grenade: Flash
Technique Type: Stat Morph
Cooldown: 12 Posts
Duration: 4 Posts
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: 75% Reflex Debuff
Description: The riskiest, but most useful grenade in Alexa's repertoire, the Flash Grenade holds a concoction of materials that--when exposed to air--create an absolutely blinding flash of light. This grenade is made of glass, much like the Firebomb Grenade, and when the grenade makes contact with something, the tinted glass shatters, creating an absolutely devastatingly bright flash of light. This causes massive disorientation to an opponent, making it far easier for Alexa to make contact with any attacks that she would follow up with.
Battlefield Formation: Slicing Wave
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 6 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: This technique was designed as an enhancement of Battlefield Formation: Wave. Meant to be used on only the toughest of opponents, Battlefield Formation: Slicing Wave utilizes two different grenades, but follows the same process as the technique it is based off of. Alexa will pull two grenades from her belt, then focus the power of her devil fruit into each arm, shoving the grenades into the surface of her choosing up to elbow length before pulling the pin of one, and pulling both arms to the surface. As with the Wave formation, this causes a sudden surge of liquid matter to rush towards the opponent. However, at the very last second, Alexa will yank both of her hands away, revealing a string within the wave that pulls the pin of the second grenade, causing the wave to solidify before detonating, sending a very large amount of shrapnel flying towards her opponent.
Battlefield Formation: Spike Shot
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 6
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A rather clever twist of an existing technique, Battlefield Formation: Spike Shot is nearly indistinguishable from Reformation: Wall, at first. In terms of activation, the process is identical. Alexa focuses her Devil Fruit's power into a single foot, and stomps onto the ground, causing an upward spray of earthen material. However, the difference between these two moves is subtle. Whereas Reformation: Wall uses just enough strength to put a wall between Alexa and an incoming attack, Spike Shot puts a far higher amount of strength into the stomp, effectively creating a veritable pillar of material. With one of her free hands, Alexa proceeds to pull the pin from a grenade and shove it into the mass as she pulls both her foot and hand away. Upon detonation, the entire front of the pillar detonates, sending a large number of spikes of earth towards an opponent as the remaining bits of pillar crumble away.
- AoE Techniques:
Special Grenade: Heavy Fragmentation
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 8 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the larger grenades in Alexa's repertoire, the Heavy Fragmentation Grenade is a cylinder that has a ribbed surface, and is packed to the brim with black powder and extra shards of metal. When thrown, this grenade explodes, covering a large area in fast moving shrapnel that goes in all directions. Due to how heavy this grenade is, Alexa carries very few of them on her person at a time.
Battlefield Formation: Shredding Quicksand
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 8 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the most obviously strenuous uses of Alexa's power, Shredding Quicksand is a technique that utilizes multiple Heavy Fragmentation grenades in conjunction with Alexa's ability to liquidize solid substances. To start, Alexa herself will sink into whatever 'ground' she plans to plant the grenades into, and plants several of them throughout the area before surfacing and placing a hand onto the substance, forcing her influence throughout the entire thing before yanking her arm back, causing a bundle of strings connected to the grenades to pull their pins, detonating each one simultaneously, filling the area with shrapnel as well as creating a whirlpool of sorts, dragging opponents into it and shredding them with heavy amounts of shrapnel, while Alexa kneels at the epicenter, untouched.
Battlefield Formation: Ground of Kazikli
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 8
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: Even the kindest of souls are capable of acts of sadism if pushed too far. Ground of Kazikli is what happens when Alexa is pushed too far. Truthfully, it is not too far removed from Shredding Quicksand in terms of how it is activated. However, instead of heavy fragmentation grenades, Ground of Kazikli uses High Explosive grenades. To use this ability, Alexa herself will sink into whatever 'ground' she plans to plant the grenades into, and plants several of them throughout the area before surfacing and placing a hand onto the substance, forcing her influence throughout the entire thing before yanking her arm back, causing a bundle of strings connected to the grenades to pull their pins, detonating each one simultaneously. However, she will also suddenly remove her hand. In doing this, the entire area that she has liquidized will suddenly resolidify in the midst of the series of explosions, creating a horrific field of massive spikes, fit to impale anyone unlucky enough to be caught in the crossfire...

Utilizing the power of the Sui-Sui No Mi, Alexa is capable of submerging herself into any solid substance large enough to hold her, and is capable of travelling through it as if it were water.
However, the degree of this submersion can vary immensely, depending on what she wants to achieve. She is more than capable of moves that will create cover by simply utilizing the way that surfaces react to her powers to shape things to her will. This is her primary method of defense. Offense however, is an entirely different story.
For Alexa, everything solid is capable of acting as if it were liquid, so her combat is emphasized by this fact. Many of her melee attacks involve moving through the ground in some manner or another to build momentum or place traps. The most typical attacks utilizing this ability involve sinking into the ground and surfacing quickly to a totally different location, or even literally slipping through cover to attempt to stab a target. For Alexa, there is no such thing as cover from her attacks. Only the ability to dodge. For that reason, she has also taken to the use of explosives, so as to make her attacks even harder to truly dodge. [A limitation I'd like you to add to your fruit is that you can't swim through living things. (e.g. You can't swim through a tree trunk, but you can swim through a wooden wall.) Alternatively, (and I think you may like this idea), you can swim through living things, and even people, but when damaging bosses/players by swimming through them, you'll have to note that you can't simply "pinpoint" weak spots like the heart for instant kills or dismembering limbs by swimming your arm through them. Obviously, I don't think you'd do that, but it's important that you mention it for the sake of those who might read your style. In the end, the damage you do to bosses/players will still be dictated by the combat mechanics.]
Toggled and Passive Abilities:
The user has the ability to swim through any solid substance as if it were water, allowing for deft control over both the battlefield and the pace of a battle. This unique ability also makes the user more effective at avoiding attacks. This passively grants a 10% increase to all RX checks made to avoid attacks, but also passively adds a 10% penalty to all RX checks made for the sake of interrupting attacks.[Please make this a Reflex buff/debuff, not a Reflex Ratio buff/debuff. Also, please clarify what you mean by "interrupting" attacks. Overall, I would recommend not having this passive and instead having your character stats balanced to favour Reflex a bit. It'll get really annoying (for you most of all) to remember what your reflex is supposed to be on top of all the other buffs/debuffs going around you.]
To the user of this fighting style, all solid surfaces have the potential to act as liquid. As such, they can channel their powers into a single body part so as to quickly reshape solid substances, provided they have the strength to move them normally. Upon breaking contact with the 'liquidized' version of the substance however, it immediately solidifies, allowing the user to create cover out of nothing, among other things.
The user is passively immune to all normal forms of binding--aside from being bound with cuffs that contain Sea Stone Prism--and can negate Named Binding Techniques--provided that they can beat the check. (Attack vs Defense check for named Techniques). However, as Haki allows for negation of most effects, this cannot be used against Activated Busoshoku Haki, or against anyone that possess level 4 or higher Haki.

This implies that Alexa can change the shape of objects. But, I’m gonna let it pass for now cause the ability is hella cool.]

Description: Where Pop Up Slash was a technique created for use as a close to mid range type of attack, River Slash is different. River Slash, unlike Pop Up Slash, holds its power not at close range, but at long range. Like Pop Up Slash, activation of this ability will have Alexa suddenly drop into the ground, fully submerging. Like with pop up slash, Alexa's swimming through the water creates a trail of liquid matter at the surface. However, when she finally is within range of her opponent, Alexa will selectively cancel her powers around her feet, giving her a solid mass to push off of, allowing her to rapidly breach the surface and utilize the momentum she has gained to deliver a very quick frontal slash.

This grenade is made of glass, much like the Firebomb Grenade, and when the grenade makes contact with something, the tinted glass shatters, creating an absolutely devastatingly bright flash of light. This causes massive disorientation to an opponent, but is not without drawback, as Alexa is also affected by this, though to less of an extreme degree. Due to how bright this light is, the eyes struggle to adjust after the fact, causing this disorientation to linger, while Alexa herself also finds things a bit harder to shrug off than normal, due to being blown off guard...and more often than not, suffering the blowback of glass being thrown her way.

Devil Fruit: Sui-Sui No Mi (Swim-Swim Fruit)
Devil Fruit Type: Paramecia
Devil Fruit Appearance: The General shape of the Sui-Sui no Mi was that of a Mango, which had several brown and red swirls throughout the flesh of the fruit itself. The mango itself seemed not to have a stem or seed, and was generally a sweet tasting fruit, having no different taste to denote its powers. The only difference was the texture, which was simultaneously grainy and slimy.
Devil Fruit Description: The Sui-Sui No Mi is a Paramecia type Devil Fruit that allows the user to 'swim' and/or assimilate themselves into physical substances such as the ground or walls. While within these substances, they take on the properties of liquid with a wide range of viscosities. However, it has recently been discovered that the amount of body that needs to be in contact to activate this effect is very small, as one can simply 'dip' their hand into a substance and trigger these effects, or submerge their entire form. With enough focus, one can even stretch the liquidizing power out and away from themselves. It should be noted that anything that is worn by, attached to, or being held by the user is also able to move through these substances with the same ease.
Fighting Style: Liquid Battlefield Style
Weapon Utilization: Long Blades and Explosives
Description: To make the Battlefield a liquid that bends to your will is the ultimate goal of every serious combatant. For Alexa however, this goal is a very true reality. Utilizing the power of the Sui-Sui No Mi, Alexa is capable of submerging herself into any solid substance large enough to hold her, and is capable of travelling through it as if it were water. This can even apply to living things--including people. However, this does not mean she can simply pinpoint the weak points of the body and use her ability to destroy them. Damage the living being she is 'swimming' through? Yes. But she has found herself unable to use her powers to the point of being able to completely dismember someone or destroy their vital points.
The degree of her submersion ability can vary immensely, depending on what she wants to achieve. She is more than capable of moves that will create cover by simply utilizing the way that surfaces react to her powers to shape things to her will. This is her primary method of defense. Offense however, is an entirely different story.
For Alexa, everything solid is capable of acting as if it were liquid, so her combat is emphasized by this fact. Many of her melee attacks involve moving through the ground in some manner or another to build momentum or place traps. The most typical attacks utilizing this ability involve sinking into the ground and surfacing quickly to a totally different location, or even literally slipping through cover to attempt to stab a target. For Alexa, there is no such thing as cover from her attacks. Only the ability to dodge. For that reason, she has also taken to the use of explosives, so as to make her attacks even harder to truly dodge.
Toggled and Passive Abilities:
To the user of this fighting style, all solid surfaces have the potential to act as liquid. As such, they can channel their powers into a single body part so as to quickly reshape solid substances, provided they have the strength to move them normally. Upon breaking contact with the 'liquidized' version of the substance however, it immediately solidifies, allowing the user to create cover out of nothing, among other things.
The user is passively immune to all normal forms of binding--aside from being bound with cuffs that contain Sea Stone Prism--and can negate Named Binding Techniques--provided that they can beat the check. (Attack vs Defense check for named Techniques). However, as Haki allows for negation of most effects, this cannot be used against Activated Busoshoku Haki, or against anyone that possess level 4 or higher Haki.
Techniques
- Light Techniques:
Pop Up Slash
Technique Level: 1
Maximum Base Range: 10 Meters
Cooldown: 2 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: This technique is the most basic concept of the Liquid Battlefield style. This technique can be used at close to medium range, and has two different uses to reflect this. At close range, the activation of this technique suddenly turns the ground just beneath Alexa into a liquid state, causing her to suddenly drop beneath it as if she was trying to stand on water before solidifying above her once fully submerged. Once the substance solidifies, a ripple of liquid material will trail from that spot and Alexa will breach the surface, popping up from behind her opponent and slashing at her opponent once the surface has been breached. When using this technique at range, Alexa will drop through the ground as normal, but the liquid material ripple will be stretched over a greater distance before she pops up behind her opponent.
Reformation: Wall
Technique Level: 1
Maximum Base Range: 10 Meters
Cooldown: 4 posts
Duration: 2 posts
Buffs: 20% defense increase
Debuffs: 20% attack decrease
Description: A simple defensive technique, Reformation: Wall is an ability that utilizes Alexa's capability to liquidize and then manipulate any solid substance in order to create cover. To do this, Alexa channels the power of her devil fruit into a single foot and stomps down hard on the ground. This causes the ground to simultaneously liquidize and splash upwards as one would expect from the surface of a liquid being disrupted. Alexa then immediately pulls her leg away, causing the substance to solidify immediately. To do this at range, Alexa will use grenades and her own focus to extend her reach outwards. Of course, this increases her defensive capabilities, but in creating a wall between herself and an opponent, it decreases her attack power by the same degree due to necessitating attacking through the barrier.
Special Grenade: High Explosive
Technique Level: 5
Maximum Base Range: 50 Meters
Cooldown: 2 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the variety of higher level grenades that Alexa has access to. This special grenade is shaped like a cylinder, much like every other grenade that she uses. What makes this grenade unique is its heft. This is caused by the fact that it has far more powder packed into a thinner casing, allowing for the damaging element of this grenade to be the actual explosion, rather than the shrapnel that can be found in her base grenades. These grenades are typically thrown. However, should she find something portable to launch these grenades further..then that might become a different story.
River Slash
Technique Level: 10
Maximum Base Range: 100 Meters
Cooldown: 2 posts
Duration: 1 post
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: Where Pop Up Slash was a technique created for use as a close to mid range type of attack, River Slash is different. River Slash, unlike Pop Up Slash, holds its power not at close range, but at long range. Like Pop Up Slash, activation of this ability will have Alexa suddenly drop into the ground, fully submerging. Like with pop up slash, Alexa's swimming through the water creates a trail of liquid matter at the surface. However, when she finally is within range of her opponent, Alexa will selectively cancel her powers around her feet, giving her a solid mass to push off of, allowing her to rapidly breach the surface and utilize the momentum she has gained to deliver a very quick frontal slash. This is typically only employed by Alexa when an enemy is entrenched in cover.
- Medium Techniques:
Battlefield Formation: Spike
Technique Level: 1
Maximum Base Range: 10 Meters
Cooldown: 5 posts
Duration: 1 post
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A simple technique that utilizes Alexa's ability to liquidize solid substances in an offensive manner. The Spike formation is created when Alexa channels her Devil Fruit's power into one hand, shoving a grenade into the liquidized earth that is created when she makes contact with it, while also forcing the liquid to move around her hand in such a way that it creates a current that allows the grenade to travel away from her, creating a ripple of liquid material as it goes. Once the grenade starts to detonate, Alexa pulls her hand back from the ground, causing the resulting explosion of material to solidify into the shape of a spike.
Special Grenade: Firebomb
Technique Level: 5
Maximum Base Range: 50 Meters
Cooldown: 5 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: The most unique of Alexa's grenades in terms of appearance, the firebomb takes on the same uniform shape as the rest of her grenades: A cylinder. However, unlike the rest of her grenades, Alexa's Firebomb grenades are made entirely of tinted glass, and carry a small amount of black powder held in place over oil, the two connected by the same internal wick as the rest of her grenades have. Upon being thrown, the wick will start burning, and eventually the grenade will explode into a small fireball upon impact.
Battlefield Formation: Wave
Technique Level: 20
Maximum Base Range: 200 Meters
Cooldown: 5 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A technique that would on paper seem to push the limits of Alexa's ability to liquidize solid matter, this technique is simple, in spite of its flashy nature. To activate this technique, Alexa focuses the power of her devil fruit around her arm from her fingertips up to her elbow after pulling a high powered grenade out of her belt. She then proceeds to shove her arm up to her elbow into the surface she wishes to use as the catalyst for this ability, pulling the pin and leaving the grenade in place before pulling her arm out of the surface and placing both hands atop it, forcing her influence outwards as far as she can reach. When this grenade detonates, it causes a large amount of this liquid material to surge forward rapidly. Once this attack hits or misses, Alexa will remove her hands from the surface that was used as the catalyst.
- Heavy Techniques:
Special Grenade: Flash
Technique Level: 1
Maximum Base Range: 10 Meters
Cooldown: 9 Posts
Duration: 3 Posts
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: 90% Reflex Debuff (To Opponent), 75% Reflex Debuff (To Self), 20% Defense Debuff (To Self)
Description: The riskiest grenade in Alexa's repertoire, the Flash Grenade holds a concoction of materials that--when exposed to air--create an absolutely blinding flash of light. This grenade is made of glass, much like the Firebomb Grenade, and when the grenade makes contact with something, the tinted glass shatters, creating an absolutely devastatingly bright flash of light. This causes massive disorientation to an opponent, but is not without drawback, as Alexa is also affected by this, though to less of an extreme degree. Due to how bright this light is, the eyes struggle to adjust after the fact, causing this disorientation to linger, while Alexa herself also finds things a bit harder to shrug off than normal, due to being blown off guard...and more often than not, suffering the blowback of glass being thrown her way.
Battlefield Formation: Slicing Wave
Technique Level: 10
Maximum Base Range: 100 Meters
Cooldown: 6 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: This technique was designed as an enhancement of Battlefield Formation: Wave. Meant to be used on only the toughest of opponents, Battlefield Formation: Slicing Wave utilizes two different grenades, but follows the same process as the technique it is based off of. Alexa will pull two grenades from her belt, then focus the power of her devil fruit into each arm, shoving the grenades into the surface of her choosing up to elbow length before pulling the pin of one, and pulling both arms to the surface. As with the Wave formation, this causes a sudden surge of liquid matter to rush towards the opponent. However, at the very last second, Alexa will yank both of her hands away, revealing a string within the wave that pulls the pin of the second grenade, causing the wave to solidify before detonating, sending a very large amount of shrapnel flying towards her opponent.
- AoE Techniques:
[Special Grenade: Heavy Fragmentation
Technique Level: 1
Maximum Base Range: 10 Meters
Maximum Base Radius: 2 Meters
Cooldown: 15 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the larger grenades in Alexa's repertoire, the Heavy Fragmentation Grenade is a cylinder that has a ribbed surface, and is packed to the brim with black powder and extra shards of metal. When thrown, this grenade explodes, covering a large area in fast moving shrapnel that goes in all directions. Due to how heavy this grenade is, Alexa carries very few of them on her person at a time.
Battlefield Formation: Shredding Quicksand
Technique Level: 20
Maximum Base Range: 200 Meters
Maximum Base Radius: 50 Meters
Cooldown: 15 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the most obviously strenuous uses of Alexa's power, Shredding Quicksand is a technique that utilizes multiple Heavy Fragmentation grenades in conjunction with Alexa's ability to liquidize solid substances. To start, Alexa herself will sink into whatever 'ground' she plans to plant the grenades into, and plants several of them throughout the area before surfacing and placing a hand onto the substance, forcing her influence throughout the entire thing before yanking her arm back, causing a bundle of strings connected to the grenades to pull their pins, detonating each one simultaneously, filling the area with shrapnel as well as creating a whirlpool of sorts, dragging opponents into it and shredding them with heavy amounts of shrapnel, while Alexa kneels at the epicenter, untouched.

Everything looks good. Just one update I'd like you to make to "Unbindable" (passive). Can you make it an RX% check? So, anyone with a RX% less than 50% against you cannot bind you unless they're using haki.

Unbindable: The nature of the Sui-Sui No Mi is a rather..interesting one. Due to the user's ability to move through solid substances as if they were liquid, the user is immune to abilities that seek to restrain. As such, restraints that are not made of seastone will not affect the user. Against named binding techniques, so long as the attacker's RX% is below 50%, the technique will fail to take effect. This can be bypassed with the activation of Busoshoku Haki, or by anyone in possession of Haki that is of level 4 or higher.

Upon use of this technique, Alexa will focus her devil fruit's power into whatever hand is holding the weapon she plans to use, and proceeds to slash at the surface that will be used to launch the Earthen Sickle. As she slashes, she dials back her power, causing the material to start to solidify as it is flung away from her, creating a high speed slash of solid material that tears through the origin material, giving her a ranged attack that can be utilized at any angle.

This grenade is made of glass, much like the Firebomb Grenade, and when the grenade makes contact with something, the tinted glass shatters, creating an absolutely devastatingly bright flash of light. This causes massive disorientation to an opponent, making it far easier for Alexa to make contact with any attacks that she would follow up with.

Description: A rather clever twist of an existing technique, Battlefield Formation: Spike Shot is nearly indistinguishable from Reformation: Wall, at first. In terms of activation, the process is identical. Alexa focuses her Devil Fruit's power into a single foot, and stomps onto the ground, causing an upward spray of earthen material. However, the difference between these two moves is subtle. Whereas Reformation: Wall uses just enough strength to put a wall between Alexa and an incoming attack, Spike Shot puts a far higher amount of strength into the stomp, effectively creating a veritable pillar of material. With one of her free hands, Alexa proceeds to pull the pin from a grenade and shove it into the mass as she pulls both her foot and hand away. Upon detonation, the entire front of the pillar detonates, sending a large number of spikes of earth towards an opponent as the remaining bits of pillar crumble away.

To start, Alexa herself will sink into whatever 'ground' she plans to plant the grenades into, and plants several of them throughout the area before surfacing and placing a hand onto the substance, forcing her influence throughout the entire thing before yanking her arm back, causing a bundle of strings connected to the grenades to pull their pins, detonating each one simultaneously, filling the area with shrapnel as well as creating a whirlpool of sorts, dragging opponents into it and shredding them with heavy amounts of shrapnel, while Alexa kneels at the epicenter, untouched.

Description: Even the kindest of souls are capable of acts of sadism if pushed too far. Ground of Kazikli is what happens when Alexa is pushed too far. Truthfully, it is not too far removed from Shredding Quicksand in terms of how it is activated. However, instead of heavy fragmentation grenades, Ground of Kazikli uses High Explosive grenades. To use this ability, Alexa herself will sink into whatever 'ground' she plans to plant the grenades into, and plants several of them throughout the area before surfacing and placing a hand onto the substance, forcing her influence throughout the entire thing before yanking her arm back, causing a bundle of strings connected to the grenades to pull their pins, detonating each one simultaneously. However, she will also suddenly remove her hand. In doing this, the entire area that she has liquidized will suddenly resolidify in the midst of the series of explosions, creating a horrific field of massive spikes, fit to impale anyone unlucky enough to be caught in the crossfire...

Re: Sui-Sui No Mi: Liquid Battlefield Style

Alexa Icnoyotl wrote:[ Comments in orange. ]Sui-Sui No Mi (Swim-Swim Fruit)
Devil Fruit: Sui-Sui No Mi (Swim-Swim Fruit)
Devil Fruit Type: Paramecia
Devil Fruit Appearance: The General shape of the Sui-Sui no Mi was that of a Mango, which had several brown and red swirls throughout the flesh of the fruit itself. The mango itself seemed not to have a stem or seed, and was generally a sweet tasting fruit, having no different taste to denote its powers. The only difference was the texture, which was simultaneously grainy and slimy.
Devil Fruit Description: The Sui-Sui No Mi is a Paramecia type Devil Fruit that allows the user to 'swim' and/or assimilate themselves into physical substances such as the ground or walls. While within these substances, they take on the properties of liquid with a wide range of viscosities. However, it has recently been discovered that the amount of body that needs to be in contact to activate this effect is very small, as one can simply 'dip' their hand into a substance and trigger these effects, or submerge their entire form. With enough focus, one can even stretch the liquidizing power out and away from themselves. It should be noted that anything that is worn by, attached to, or being held by the user is also able to move through these substances with the same ease.
Fighting Style: Liquid Battlefield Style
Weapon Utilization: Long Blades and Explosives
Description: To make the Battlefield a liquid that bends to your will is the ultimate goal of every serious combatant. For Alexa however, this goal is a very true reality. Utilizing the power of the Sui-Sui No Mi, Alexa is capable of submerging herself into any solid substance large enough to hold her, and is capable of travelling through it as if it were water. This can even apply to living things--including people. However, this does not mean she can simply pinpoint the weak points of the body and use her ability to destroy them. Damage the living being she is 'swimming' through? Yes. But she has found herself unable to use her powers to the point of being able to completely dismember someone or destroy their vital points.
The degree of her submersion ability can vary immensely, depending on what she wants to achieve. She is more than capable of moves that will create cover by simply utilizing the way that surfaces react to her powers to shape things to her will. This is her primary method of defense. Offense however, is an entirely different story.
For Alexa, everything solid is capable of acting as if it were liquid, so her combat is emphasized by this fact. Many of her melee attacks involve moving through the ground in some manner or another to build momentum or place traps. The most typical attacks utilizing this ability involve sinking into the ground and surfacing quickly to a totally different location, or even literally slipping through cover to attempt to stab a target. For Alexa, there is no such thing as cover from her attacks. Only the ability to dodge. For that reason, she has also taken to the use of explosives, so as to make her attacks even harder to truly dodge.
Passive Abilities:
Unbindable: The nature of the Sui-Sui No Mi is a rather..interesting one. Due to the user's ability to move through solid substances as if they were liquid, the user is immune to abilities that seek to restrain. As such, restraints that are not made of seastone will not affect the user. Against named binding techniques, so long as the attacker's RX% is below 50%, the technique will fail to take effect. This can be bypassed with the activation of Busoshoku Haki, or by anyone in possession of Haki that is of level 4 or higher. [ Due to us now fully embracing the ability to RP out landed damage as being from any source, we're now restricting mechanical non-haki damage immunity to logia users only. You can still RP out missed hits as having been due to your fruit's powers though. ]
Techniques
- Light Techniques:
Pop Up Slash
Technique Type: Flat
Maximum Base Range: 3 Meters [ Remove ranges for techniques altogether. These don't need to be stated as the description is flavour only and can be wildly different in actual RP. ]
Cooldown: 1 post [ The cooldown of ALL techniques were updated. Please review the combat guide and fix all of them. ]
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: This technique is the most basic concept of the Liquid Battlefield style. This technique can be used at close to medium range, and has two different uses to reflect this. At close range, the activation of this technique suddenly turns the ground just beneath Alexa into a liquid state, causing her to suddenly drop beneath it as if she was trying to stand on water before solidifying above her once fully submerged. Once the substance solidifies, a ripple of liquid material will trail from that spot and Alexa will breach the surface, popping up from behind her opponent and slashing at her opponent once the surface has been breached. When using this technique at range, Alexa will drop through the ground as normal, but the liquid material ripple will be stretched over a greater distance before she pops up behind her opponent.
Reformation: Wall
Technique Type: Canceller
Maximum Base Range: 1 Meter
Cooldown: 2 posts
Duration: 1 posts [ No need to include durations for Cancellers. But, this does make me think we need a Cancel over Time technique type too. Maybe I'll do that at some point. Thanks! ]
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A simple defensive technique, Reformation: Wall is an ability that utilizes Alexa's capability to liquidize and then manipulate any solid substance in order to create cover. To do this, Alexa channels the power of her devil fruit into a single foot and stomps down hard on the ground. This causes the ground to simultaneously liquidize and splash upwards as one would expect from the surface of a liquid being disrupted. Alexa then immediately pulls her leg away, causing the substance to solidify immediately. To do this at range, Alexa will use grenades and her own focus to extend her reach outwards. Of course, this increases her defensive capabilities, but in creating a wall between herself and an opponent, it decreases her attack power by the same degree due to necessitating attacking through the barrier.
Special Grenade: High Explosive
Technique Type: Flat
Maximum Base Range: 4 Meters
Cooldown: 1 post
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the variety of higher level grenades that Alexa has access to. This special grenade is shaped like a cylinder, much like every other grenade that she uses. What makes this grenade unique is its heft. This is caused by the fact that it has far more powder packed into a thinner casing, allowing for the damaging element of this grenade to be the actual explosion, rather than the shrapnel that can be found in her base grenades. These grenades are typically thrown. However, should she find something portable to launch these grenades further..then that might become a different story.
River Slash
Technique Type: Flat
Maximum Base Range: 6 Meters
Cooldown: 1 post
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: Where Pop Up Slash was a technique created for use as a close to mid range type of attack, River Slash is different. River Slash, unlike Pop Up Slash, holds its power not at close range, but at long range. Like Pop Up Slash, activation of this ability will have Alexa suddenly drop into the ground, fully submerging. Like with pop up slash, Alexa's swimming through the water creates a trail of liquid matter at the surface. However, when she finally is within range of her opponent, Alexa will selectively cancel her powers around her feet, giving her a solid mass to push off of, allowing her to rapidly breach the surface and utilize the momentum she has gained to deliver a very quick frontal slash. This is typically only employed by Alexa when an enemy is entrenched in cover.
Battlefield Formation: Earthen Sickle
Technique Type: Flat
Maximum Base Range: 3 Meters
Cooldown: 1 Post
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: After much observation of dedicated swordsmen and their ability to send flying slashes out from their blades, Alexa has decided to take a page from their book, and put a twist on it utilizing her own powers. Upon use of this technique, Alexa will focus her devil fruit's power into whatever hand is holding the weapon she plans to use, and proceeds to slash at the surface that will be used to launch the Earthen Sickle. As she slashes, she dials back her power, causing the material to start to solidify as it is flung away from her, creating a high speed slash of solid material that tears through the origin material, giving her a ranged attack that can be utilized at any angle.
Special Grenade: Psycho
Technique Type: Stat Morph
Maximum Base Range: 4 Meters
Cooldown: 3 Posts
Duration: 2 Posts
Buffs: 25% Defense Buff (Self or Ally)
Debuffs: N/A
Description: An experimental grenade created with the assistance of the good Doctor Coranthal, the Psycho grenade is another of Alexa's more support based grenades. Like Doctor's Orders, it is an Aerosol based grenade, and is used in the same way: Pull the pin and throw to assist an ally, or pull the pin and hold it to use it on herself. The haze created by this grenade however is a light red, rather than green.
- Medium Techniques:
Battlefield Formation: Spike
Technique Type: Flat
Maximum Base Range: 5 Meters
Cooldown: 3 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A simple technique that utilizes Alexa's ability to liquidize solid substances in an offensive manner. The Spike formation is created when Alexa channels her Devil Fruit's power into one hand, shoving a grenade into the liquidized earth that is created when she makes contact with it, while also forcing the liquid to move around her hand in such a way that it creates a current that allows the grenade to travel away from her, creating a ripple of liquid material as it goes. Once the grenade starts to detonate, Alexa pulls her hand back from the ground, causing the resulting explosion of material to solidify into the shape of a spike.
Special Grenade: Firebomb
Technique Type: DoT
Maximum Base Range: 4 Meters
Cooldown: 3 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: The most unique of Alexa's grenades in terms of appearance, the firebomb takes on the same uniform shape as the rest of her grenades: A cylinder. However, unlike the rest of her grenades, Alexa's Firebomb grenades are made entirely of tinted glass, and carry a small amount of black powder held in place over oil, the two connected by the same internal wick as the rest of her grenades have. Upon being thrown, the wick will start burning, and eventually the grenade will explode into a small fireball upon impact.
Battlefield Formation: Wave
Technique Type: Flat
Maximum Base Range: 7 Meters
Cooldown: 3 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A technique that would on paper seem to push the limits of Alexa's ability to liquidize solid matter, this technique is simple, in spite of its flashy nature. To activate this technique, Alexa focuses the power of her devil fruit around her arm from her fingertips up to her elbow after pulling a high powered grenade out of her belt. She then proceeds to shove her arm up to her elbow into the surface she wishes to use as the catalyst for this ability, pulling the pin and leaving the grenade in place before pulling her arm out of the surface and placing both hands atop it, forcing her influence outwards as far as she can reach. When this grenade detonates, it causes a large amount of this liquid material to surge forward rapidly. Once this attack hits or misses, Alexa will remove her hands from the surface that was used as the catalyst.
Special Grenade: Doctor's Orders
Technique Type: Heal
Maximum Base Range: 4 Meters
Cooldown: 5 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: The first of several special grenades developed with the assistance of the good Doctor Coranthal, Doctor's Orders is an aerosol based grenade that generates a special type of gas that is able to accelerate one's natural healing by a fairly impressive degree. To use this grenade, Alexa can either pull the pin and throw it to assist an ally, or merely pull the pin and hold it in her hand as a large haze of light green smoke surrounds her.
- Heavy Techniques:
Special Grenade: Flash
Technique Type: Stat Morph
Maximum Base Range: 4 Meters
Cooldown: 8 Posts
Duration: 3 Posts
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: 75% Reflex Debuff
Description: The riskiest, but most useful grenade in Alexa's repertoire, the Flash Grenade holds a concoction of materials that--when exposed to air--create an absolutely blinding flash of light. This grenade is made of glass, much like the Firebomb Grenade, and when the grenade makes contact with something, the tinted glass shatters, creating an absolutely devastatingly bright flash of light. This causes massive disorientation to an opponent, making it far easier for Alexa to make contact with any attacks that she would follow up with.
Battlefield Formation: Slicing Wave
Technique Type: Flat
Maximum Base Range: 7 Meters
Cooldown: 5 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: This technique was designed as an enhancement of Battlefield Formation: Wave. Meant to be used on only the toughest of opponents, Battlefield Formation: Slicing Wave utilizes two different grenades, but follows the same process as the technique it is based off of. Alexa will pull two grenades from her belt, then focus the power of her devil fruit into each arm, shoving the grenades into the surface of her choosing up to elbow length before pulling the pin of one, and pulling both arms to the surface. As with the Wave formation, this causes a sudden surge of liquid matter to rush towards the opponent. However, at the very last second, Alexa will yank both of her hands away, revealing a string within the wave that pulls the pin of the second grenade, causing the wave to solidify before detonating, sending a very large amount of shrapnel flying towards her opponent.
Battlefield Formation: Spike Shot
Technique Type: Flat
Maximum Base Range: 4 Meters
Cooldown: 5
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A rather clever twist of an existing technique, Battlefield Formation: Spike Shot is nearly indistinguishable from Reformation: Wall, at first. In terms of activation, the process is identical. Alexa focuses her Devil Fruit's power into a single foot, and stomps onto the ground, causing an upward spray of earthen material. However, the difference between these two moves is subtle. Whereas Reformation: Wall uses just enough strength to put a wall between Alexa and an incoming attack, Spike Shot puts a far higher amount of strength into the stomp, effectively creating a veritable pillar of material. With one of her free hands, Alexa proceeds to pull the pin from a grenade and shove it into the mass as she pulls both her foot and hand away. Upon detonation, the entire front of the pillar detonates, sending a large number of spikes of earth towards an opponent as the remaining bits of pillar crumble away.
- AoE Techniques:
Special Grenade: Heavy Fragmentation
Technique Type: Flat
Maximum Base Range: 10 Meters
Maximum Base Radius: 4 Meters [ Make sure to remove radii also. ]
Cooldown: 7 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the larger grenades in Alexa's repertoire, the Heavy Fragmentation Grenade is a cylinder that has a ribbed surface, and is packed to the brim with black powder and extra shards of metal. When thrown, this grenade explodes, covering a large area in fast moving shrapnel that goes in all directions. Due to how heavy this grenade is, Alexa carries very few of them on her person at a time.
Battlefield Formation: Shredding Quicksand
Technique Type: Flat
Maximum Base Range: 5 Meters
Maximum Base Radius: 7 Meters
Cooldown: 7 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the most obviously strenuous uses of Alexa's power, Shredding Quicksand is a technique that utilizes multiple Heavy Fragmentation grenades in conjunction with Alexa's ability to liquidize solid substances. To start, Alexa herself will sink into whatever 'ground' she plans to plant the grenades into, and plants several of them throughout the area before surfacing and placing a hand onto the substance, forcing her influence throughout the entire thing before yanking her arm back, causing a bundle of strings connected to the grenades to pull their pins, detonating each one simultaneously, filling the area with shrapnel as well as creating a whirlpool of sorts, dragging opponents into it and shredding them with heavy amounts of shrapnel, while Alexa kneels at the epicenter, untouched.
Battlefield Formation: Ground of Kazikli
Technique Type: Flat
Maximum Base Range: 9 Meters
Maximum Base Radius: 7 Meters
Cooldown: 7
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: Even the kindest of souls are capable of acts of sadism if pushed too far. Ground of Kazikli is what happens when Alexa is pushed too far. Truthfully, it is not too far removed from Shredding Quicksand in terms of how it is activated. However, instead of heavy fragmentation grenades, Ground of Kazikli uses High Explosive grenades. To use this ability, Alexa herself will sink into whatever 'ground' she plans to plant the grenades into, and plants several of them throughout the area before surfacing and placing a hand onto the substance, forcing her influence throughout the entire thing before yanking her arm back, causing a bundle of strings connected to the grenades to pull their pins, detonating each one simultaneously. However, she will also suddenly remove her hand. In doing this, the entire area that she has liquidized will suddenly resolidify in the midst of the series of explosions, creating a horrific field of massive spikes, fit to impale anyone unlucky enough to be caught in the crossfire...

Passive Abilities:
The World's Your Ocean: Over the course of her years of possessing the power of the Sui Sui No Mi, the fruit's most basic ability has become all but second nature to Alexa, to the point where she can often be seen walking through walls or even dropping through floors, all of which will simply flow around her as if she had walked under a waterfall or dropped into a pool. This can only be done because the application of the ability has become instinctive. Should she come up to a wall that is not made of sea stone, she can simply walk through it. Same goes for a floor and falling through it. Strangely enough, this also allows her to seemingly defy gravity and move up walls or across vertical surfaces such as ceilings. To achieve this, however requires her to mimic swimming.

To use this grenade, Alexa can either pull the pin and throw it to assist an ally, or merely pull the pin and hold it in her hand as a large haze of light green smoke surrounds her.
- Heavy Techniques:
Special Grenade: Flash
Technique Type: Stat Morph
Cooldown: 9 Posts [ Cooldown should be 12. ]
Duration: 4 Posts
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: 75% Reflex Debuff
Description: The riskiest, but most useful grenade in Alexa's repertoire, the Flash Grenade holds a concoction of materials that--when exposed to air--create an absolutely blinding flash of light. This grenade is made of glass, much like the Firebomb Grenade, and when the grenade makes contact with something, the tinted glass shatters, creating an absolutely devastatingly bright flash of light. This causes massive disorientation to an opponent, making it far easier for Alexa to make contact with any attacks that she would follow up with.
Battlefield Formation: Slicing Wave
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 6 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: This technique was designed as an enhancement of Battlefield Formation: Wave. Meant to be used on only the toughest of opponents, Battlefield Formation: Slicing Wave utilizes two different grenades, but follows the same process as the technique it is based off of. Alexa will pull two grenades from her belt, then focus the power of her devil fruit into each arm, shoving the grenades into the surface of her choosing up to elbow length before pulling the pin of one, and pulling both arms to the surface. As with the Wave formation, this causes a sudden surge of liquid matter to rush towards the opponent. However, at the very last second, Alexa will yank both of her hands away, revealing a string within the wave that pulls the pin of the second grenade, causing the wave to solidify before detonating, sending a very large amount of shrapnel flying towards her opponent.
Battlefield Formation: Spike Shot
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 6
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A rather clever twist of an existing technique, Battlefield Formation: Spike Shot is nearly indistinguishable from Reformation: Wall, at first. In terms of activation, the process is identical. Alexa focuses her Devil Fruit's power into a single foot, and stomps onto the ground, causing an upward spray of earthen material. However, the difference between these two moves is subtle. Whereas Reformation: Wall uses just enough strength to put a wall between Alexa and an incoming attack, Spike Shot puts a far higher amount of strength into the stomp, effectively creating a veritable pillar of material. With one of her free hands, Alexa proceeds to pull the pin from a grenade and shove it into the mass as she pulls both her foot and hand away. Upon detonation, the entire front of the pillar detonates, sending a large number of spikes of earth towards an opponent as the remaining bits of pillar crumble away.
- AoE Techniques:
Special Grenade: Heavy Fragmentation
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 8 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the larger grenades in Alexa's repertoire, the Heavy Fragmentation Grenade is a cylinder that has a ribbed surface, and is packed to the brim with black powder and extra shards of metal. When thrown, this grenade explodes, covering a large area in fast moving shrapnel that goes in all directions. Due to how heavy this grenade is, Alexa carries very few of them on her person at a time.
Battlefield Formation: Shredding Quicksand
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 8 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the most obviously strenuous uses of Alexa's power, Shredding Quicksand is a technique that utilizes multiple Heavy Fragmentation grenades in conjunction with Alexa's ability to liquidize solid substances. To start, Alexa herself will sink into whatever 'ground' she plans to plant the grenades into, and plants several of them throughout the area before surfacing and placing a hand onto the substance, forcing her influence throughout the entire thing before yanking her arm back, causing a bundle of strings connected to the grenades to pull their pins, detonating each one simultaneously, filling the area with shrapnel as well as creating a whirlpool of sorts, dragging opponents into it and shredding them with heavy amounts of shrapnel, while Alexa kneels at the epicenter, untouched.
Battlefield Formation: Ground of Kazikli
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 8
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: Even the kindest of souls are capable of acts of sadism if pushed too far. Ground of Kazikli is what happens when Alexa is pushed too far. Truthfully, it is not too far removed from Shredding Quicksand in terms of how it is activated. However, instead of heavy fragmentation grenades, Ground of Kazikli uses High Explosive grenades. To use this ability, Alexa herself will sink into whatever 'ground' she plans to plant the grenades into, and plants several of them throughout the area before surfacing and placing a hand onto the substance, forcing her influence throughout the entire thing before yanking her arm back, causing a bundle of strings connected to the grenades to pull their pins, detonating each one simultaneously. However, she will also suddenly remove her hand. In doing this, the entire area that she has liquidized will suddenly resolidify in the midst of the series of explosions, creating a horrific field of massive spikes, fit to impale anyone unlucky enough to be caught in the crossfire...

Alexa Icnoyotl wrote:Sui-Sui No Mi (Swim-Swim Fruit)
Devil Fruit: Sui-Sui No Mi (Swim-Swim Fruit)
Devil Fruit Type: Paramecia
Devil Fruit Appearance: The General shape of the Sui-Sui no Mi was that of a Mango, which had several brown and red swirls throughout the flesh of the fruit itself. The mango itself seemed not to have a stem or seed, and was generally a sweet tasting fruit, having no different taste to denote its powers. The only difference was the texture, which was simultaneously grainy and slimy.
Devil Fruit Description: The Sui-Sui No Mi is a Paramecia type Devil Fruit that allows the user to 'swim' and/or assimilate themselves into physical substances such as the ground or walls. While within these substances, they take on the properties of liquid with a wide range of viscosities. However, it has recently been discovered that the amount of body that needs to be in contact to activate this effect is very small, as one can simply 'dip' their hand into a substance and trigger these effects, or submerge their entire form. With enough focus, one can even stretch the liquidizing power out and away from themselves. It should be noted that anything that is worn by, attached to, or being held by the user is also able to move through these substances with the same ease.
Fighting Style: Liquid Battlefield Style
Weapon Utilization: Long Blades and Explosives
Description: To make the Battlefield a liquid that bends to your will is the ultimate goal of every serious combatant. For Alexa however, this goal is a very true reality. Utilizing the power of the Sui-Sui No Mi, Alexa is capable of submerging herself into any solid substance large enough to hold her, and is capable of travelling through it as if it were water. This can even apply to living things--including people. However, this does not mean she can simply pinpoint the weak points of the body and use her ability to destroy them. Damage the living being she is 'swimming' through? Yes. But she has found herself unable to use her powers to the point of being able to completely dismember someone or destroy their vital points.
The degree of her submersion ability can vary immensely, depending on what she wants to achieve. She is more than capable of moves that will create cover by simply utilizing the way that surfaces react to her powers to shape things to her will. This is her primary method of defense. Offense however, is an entirely different story.
For Alexa, everything solid is capable of acting as if it were liquid, so her combat is emphasized by this fact. Many of her melee attacks involve moving through the ground in some manner or another to build momentum or place traps. The most typical attacks utilizing this ability involve sinking into the ground and surfacing quickly to a totally different location, or even literally slipping through cover to attempt to stab a target. For Alexa, there is no such thing as cover from her attacks. Only the ability to dodge. For that reason, she has also taken to the use of explosives, so as to make her attacks even harder to truly dodge.
Passive Abilities:
The World's Your Ocean: Over the course of her years of possessing the power of the Sui Sui No Mi, the fruit's most basic ability has become all but second nature to Alexa, to the point where she can often be seen walking through walls or even dropping through floors, all of which will simply flow around her as if she had walked under a waterfall or dropped into a pool. This can only be done because the application of the ability has become instinctive. Should she come up to a wall that is not made of sea stone, she can simply walk through it. Same goes for a floor and falling through it. Strangely enough, this also allows her to seemingly defy gravity and move up walls or across vertical surfaces such as ceilings. To achieve this, however requires her to mimic swimming.

Techniques
- Light Techniques:
Pop Up Slash
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 2 post
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: This technique is the most basic concept of the Liquid Battlefield style. This technique can be used at close to medium range, and has two different uses to reflect this. At close range, the activation of this technique suddenly turns the ground just beneath Alexa into a liquid state, causing her to suddenly drop beneath it as if she was trying to stand on water before solidifying above her once fully submerged. Once the substance solidifies, a ripple of liquid material will trail from that spot and Alexa will breach the surface, popping up from behind her opponent and slashing at her opponent once the surface has been breached. When using this technique at range, Alexa will drop through the ground as normal, but the liquid material ripple will be stretched over a greater distance before she pops up behind her opponent.
Reformation: Wall
Technique Type: Canceller
Cooldown: 2 posts
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A simple defensive technique, Reformation: Wall is an ability that utilizes Alexa's capability to liquidize and then manipulate any solid substance in order to create cover. To do this, Alexa channels the power of her devil fruit into a single foot and stomps down hard on the ground. This causes the ground to simultaneously liquidize and splash upwards as one would expect from the surface of a liquid being disrupted. Alexa then immediately pulls her leg away, causing the substance to solidify immediately. To do this at range, Alexa will use grenades and her own focus to extend her reach outwards. Of course, this increases her defensive capabilities, but in creating a wall between herself and an opponent, it decreases her attack power by the same degree due to necessitating attacking through the barrier.
Special Grenade: High Explosive
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 2 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: One of the variety of higher level grenades that Alexa has access to. This special grenade is shaped like a cylinder, much like every other grenade that she uses. What makes this grenade unique is its heft. This is caused by the fact that it has far more powder packed into a thinner casing, allowing for the damaging element of this grenade to be the actual explosion, rather than the shrapnel that can be found in her base grenades. These grenades are typically thrown. However, should she find something portable to launch these grenades further..then that might become a different story.
River Slash
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 2 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: Where Pop Up Slash was a technique created for use as a close to mid range type of attack, River Slash is different. River Slash, unlike Pop Up Slash, holds its power not at close range, but at long range. Like Pop Up Slash, activation of this ability will have Alexa suddenly drop into the ground, fully submerging. Like with pop up slash, Alexa's swimming through the water creates a trail of liquid matter at the surface. However, when she finally is within range of her opponent, Alexa will selectively cancel her powers around her feet, giving her a solid mass to push off of, allowing her to rapidly breach the surface and utilize the momentum she has gained to deliver a very quick frontal slash. This is typically only employed by Alexa when an enemy is entrenched in cover.
Battlefield Formation: Earthen Sickle
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 2 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: After much observation of dedicated swordsmen and their ability to send flying slashes out from their blades, Alexa has decided to take a page from their book, and put a twist on it utilizing her own powers. Upon use of this technique, Alexa will focus her devil fruit's power into whatever hand is holding the weapon she plans to use, and proceeds to slash at the surface that will be used to launch the Earthen Sickle. As she slashes, she dials back her power, causing the material to start to solidify as it is flung away from her, creating a high speed slash of solid material that tears through the origin material, giving her a ranged attack that can be utilized at any angle.
Special Grenade: Psycho
Technique Type: Stat Morph
Cooldown: 6 Posts
Duration: 2 Posts
Buffs: 25% Defense Buff (Self or Ally)
Debuffs: N/A
Description: An experimental grenade created with the assistance of the good Doctor Coranthal, the Psycho grenade is another of Alexa's more support based grenades. Like Doctor's Orders, it is an Aerosol based grenade, and is used in the same way: Pull the pin and throw to assist an ally, or pull the pin and hold it to use it on herself. The haze created by this grenade however is a light red, rather than green.
- Medium Techniques:
Battlefield Formation: Spike
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 4 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A simple technique that utilizes Alexa's ability to liquidize solid substances in an offensive manner. The Spike formation is created when Alexa channels her Devil Fruit's power into one hand, shoving a grenade into the liquidized earth that is created when she makes contact with it, while also forcing the liquid to move around her hand in such a way that it creates a current that allows the grenade to travel away from her, creating a ripple of liquid material as it goes. Once the grenade starts to detonate, Alexa pulls her hand back from the ground, causing the resulting explosion of material to solidify into the shape of a spike.
Special Grenade: Firebomb
Technique Type: DoT
Cooldown: 4 posts
Duration: 5 posts
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: The most unique of Alexa's grenades in terms of appearance, the firebomb takes on the same uniform shape as the rest of her grenades: A cylinder. However, unlike the rest of her grenades, Alexa's Firebomb grenades are made entirely of tinted glass, and carry a small amount of black powder held in place over oil, the two connected by the same internal wick as the rest of her grenades have. Upon being thrown, the wick will start burning, and eventually the grenade will explode into a small fireball upon impact.
Battlefield Formation: Wave
Technique Type: Flat
Cooldown: 4 posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: A technique that would on paper seem to push the limits of Alexa's ability to liquidize solid matter, this technique is simple, in spite of its flashy nature. To activate this technique, Alexa focuses the power of her devil fruit around her arm from her fingertips up to her elbow after pulling a high powered grenade out of her belt. She then proceeds to shove her arm up to her elbow into the surface she wishes to use as the catalyst for this ability, pulling the pin and leaving the grenade in place before pulling her arm out of the surface and placing both hands atop it, forcing her influence outwards as far as she can reach. When this grenade detonates, it causes a large amount of this liquid material to surge forward rapidly. Once this attack hits or misses, Alexa will remove her hands from the surface that was used as the catalyst.
Special Grenade: Doctor's Orders
Technique Type: Heal
Cooldown: 6 Posts
Duration: N/A
Buffs: N/A
Debuffs: N/A
Description: The first of several special grenades developed with the assistance of the good Doctor Coranthal, Doctor's Orders is an aerosol based grenade that generates a special type of gas that is able to accelerate one's natural healing by a fairly impressive degree. To use this grenade, Alexa can either pull the pin and throw it to assist an ally, or merely pull the pin and hold it in her hand as a large haze of light green smoke surrounds her.

Special Grenade: Flash
Technique Type: Stat Morph
Cooldown: 12 Posts

Debuffs: 75% Reflex Debuff
Description: The riskiest, but most useful grenade in Alexa's repertoire, the Flash Grenade holds a concoction of materials that--when exposed to air--create an absolutely blinding flash of light. This grenade is made of glass, much like the Firebomb Grenade, and when the grenade makes contact with something, the tinted glass shatters, creating an absolutely devastatingly bright flash of light. This causes massive disorientation to an opponent, making it far easier for Alexa to make contact with any attacks that she would follow up with.
