REQUIRED FOR ALL
History/Background Lucario Yamada was born in village known as Hizo. On an island of the coast off the mainland. His mother was Luna Yamada and his father Tenchi Yamada. The newborn laughed out as the parents tried to figure out the little ones name. They decided to mix their names and come out with Lucario Yamada. The parents looked at each other and smiled, saying “Lucario Yamada.” The baby giggled at the name as he liked it. Very much. Lucario was put in a cold, dark room where he slept. The baby began easily snoring as they went upstairs and went to sleep.
A bird had set feet on the top of the house. A man took a needle and threw it at the bird straight through the head. The man started laughing and walked around the house to the back window. The man roughly smashed it with his hand and jumped straight in. He rolled over and ran into a room hoping to find something interesting, his instinct. The man walked up to the baby and picked him up. He jumped out of the window without any second thought. He ran with the baby to a far off river where he joined with his party it had seemed. He jumped on the boat and signaled the others to get on fast.
They set the baby down on the side and started rowing as soon as they all got on. It would take a couple of weeks to get back to the Japan main land, but getting there was worth it since Getting a baby, they could sell it for a slave or something. Lucario soon fell asleep after crying for at least thirty minutes. He woke up five hours later. He found himself in a the boat still on the bank of the river, all five of the Chinese men, were laying down by the boat dead. Lucario didn’t seem to know anything about what had happened, though he felt something was wrong. Lucario farted and crawled over to one of the bodies and attempted to touch one of their swords the men held earlier.
An arm reached at Lucario and grabbed him by the head, he was grabbed by a huge man, a samurai it seemed. The man took the baby and got in the boat and immediately began rowing. Lucario giggled at the man and started fiddling with the man’s toes. The man had some special medicine that he fed the child, making him fall into a deep sleep. The only food they had was coconuts, and the water from the ocean. They could survive. But with Lucario under that medicine he could survive for a week. Some type of special medicine stuff.
A few days later, Lucario had seemed to wake up, they were in the middle of the Ocean. That man was still rowing. But to Lucario, he just wanted food. He crawled over to an open fruit he seemed to had been eating and started eating off it. It was good to Lucario, he actually loved it. The child kept eating off it like it was his last meal. He was truly hungry. A few minutes later the man started laughed at ;Lucario. He just shook his head and smiled at the boy, telling him one thing. Knowing he couldn’t even understand him right at this point. “You’re going to be my Apprentice. Back in Mibu.”
12 years Later-
As the years passed by, Lucario had adapted the customs of Mibu. The man had taught him how to speak and even taught him a bit of fighting skills. He had learn a style of Kendo which was called Gatotsu. Amateur yet still amazing how he learned so much of it so fast. One day upon these years the man told Lucario to attack him with the intent of killing him. Lucario shook his head as he couldn't or rather he didn't want to.
Saito shook his head and slapped the boy and asked him to do it again, still keeping his calm. Lucario however had begun to get mad. He started blasting at him. “No Master Saito!!! I ain’t gonna kill you. You have not even harmed me! You-“ Lucario tried to go on, yet he was stopped in the middle of his sentence with a punch to a face. He went flying back, hitting the wall of the Dojo. Saito slowly walked up to Lucario and grabbed his neck, he pulled him up into the air and grew angry.
Lucario was dazed out. Like he was having a flash back. He saw two figures , a male and a female. The woman seemed to be in love with the man as they looked each other deep into the eye. And gave the boy a look, a special look. They both laughed and said the same thing. ‘Lucario Yamada.’ Lucario smiled as he took another hit to the face, smashing straight into the ground. Lucario opened his eyes and coughed out a burp of blood. It shot straight at Saito's face. “Boy! you better fight me with everything you have or you'll end up dying right now."
Lucario yelled out, pulled out his katana and sliced down at the man. Yet Saito slapped the blade straight out of his hand, watching it slowly hit the wall and got stuck in it. Saito kicked the boy in the stomach and slammed his fist down on Lucario’s head, knocking him right into the ground. The Samurai unsheathed his katana. The Samurai grabbed the boy by his neck and threw him into the air, hitting his head straight into the ceiling. He broke right into the wood. About thirty seconds later he fell down on his legs and hit his face on the ground.
Saito flipped him over by his foot on his back. he slammed his foot on his stomach and pulled his right hand back, the hand with the katana in it. Lucario moved his right leg to the left causing his body to turn. Saito flew based him landing gently on the floor. It seemed now that Lucario knew he had to fight or he would die. Lucario then moved both of his arms up with his right arm further out than his left. Lucario ran towards Saito only to drop on his right fore-arm and threw his left leg sideways doing a sweeping leg motion. Saito jumped over sweep but then Lucario used all the muscle in his fore-arm that was on the ground and pushed him-self up. His left leg kept doing the sweeping motion as now Lucario was doing a backward heel kick aiming for Saito body.The attack connected but was quickly countered as Saito slammed the hilt off his katana into the leg of Lucario. Lucario fell down laying there breathing hard. He had lost and knew he was going to die but Saito pulled him and helped him stand. "Not bad you are truly starting to master the Gatotsu. Remember it's based on people emotions and the way their bodies move. Everyone's fighting style has a flaw even if it is said that they don't remember that. Now go prepare some white lotus flower and a blue thorn bush remedy for your wounds.
Lucario limped towards the kitchen of the small dojo and began to mix the ingredients. First his smashed the flower and bush into a fine powder then he began to heat up some water. He was going to brew tea that would release his body from the pain that it was. Though he didn't know it Lucario had grabbed the silver thorn vine by accident instead of the blue thorn bush. It was due to the fact that he felt like passing out from the pain and just wanted to rest. As he mixed the two powders together and grabbed the tea pot. As he poured the hot water there was in explosion of dust. It shot upward as Lucario fell back. Saito walked in wondering what happened. Lucario sat up holding his head and Saitos eyes had a puzzled look on them. It seemed the explosion had changed Lucarios hair color from brown to white. Saito cut it thinking that it would grow back into its normal color but when it grew back it was still white. Saito laughed "Well looks like you're stuck with that white hair Luca."
5 years later-
Lucario was now 17 and had learned almost every aspect of the gatotsu. Ever since he was 15 he had been training blind folded and forced to attack Saito head on. Saito would only show the move once to Lucario and then would have Lucario attack him. This was for two reason the first this would allow Lucario to learn more quickly on how enemies attack and how to counter and second was that this was how the Saito was taught. Lucario had to fight blind folded to help increase his hearing. Since he was blind folded his body would have to make up for the lost of sight with increasing its own strength smell taste and hearing. This training was like that of almost a ninja. Since the Saito was based on speed as well as flexibility.
Lucario stood there holding his katana in his left hand and waited to hear the movement. Then there was a bell ringing and now another sense had been taking away. His hearing was gone as well. Suddenly Lucario felt a strong jab into his abs as he bent over opening his mouth. Lucario fell down holding his stomach. Saito sighed "Lucario you have mastered every aspect of fighting of the Gutotsu style but now I'll show you the true power that lies within it. Gutotsu is not only a fighting style but you can use your own life force or aura. This aura is your ultimate weapon. It's strong than your fists and quicker than your feet. Look deep within your-self and focus. Try to manifest the energy within your-self."
Lucario stood up focusing. Nothing was happening but he kept trying and trying. Soon a purple aura began to form around Lucario and his white hair had begun to raise. Soon everything around him could be seen clearly it was as if his eyes were open. He could see the aura around him and Saitos Aura. Lucario began chuckle and ran as Saito throwing a punch into Saito left ribs. Saito slid into the wall hitting it causing it to crack. "Who the hell said attack me!" Saito said but he couldn't help but smile. In so little time Lucario had all ready come this far. There was no doubt that he would be fine when the final test of the gatotsu came, but the ending wouldn't be nice. "Now Lucario you need to train in forming this aura into whatever shape you want. I cannot teach your moves using your aura these come from within and will be your unique style."
Four years later-
Lucario was 21 years old. He sat in a meadow with his eyes closed as there was a purple orb in front of him shaping into different forms. Then his eyes opened quickly and and aura sphere vanished. The sound of war echoed around the meadow. The small province of mibu was at war.
2 years later
Lord Hanzo had huge supplies of rice stocked up near the North Mountain. Lucario was only given a hand full or soliders but still sent his soldiers out to fight, they attacked Hanzo’s army and took the supplies. How ever reinforcements did not go and aid Lucario and his men. Hanso’s main force was marching at that time; Lucario ran into Hanzo’s vanguards. Not soon after the two sides commenced to engage in battle, Hanzo’s main force arrived. The situation became very perilous for Lucario, as he and his men were greatly outnumbered. Lucario decided to attack the frontline of Hanzo’s army. Hanzo’s men were surprised by the attack and momentarily dispersed. However, they soon regrouped and surrounded Lucario. Lucario fought his way out toward his own camp. When he found out a lieutenant general was wounded and fell behind, he went back to rescue him.
Lucario fought with everything he had blood on him. His wound ripped open all across his body. The men in Hanzos army said he fought like something out of darkness. It was the type of rage and fighting that was only spoken in legend. As he picked up the wounded Lt. The small army of Mibu had finally arrived and took on Hanzos main force. With this small opening Lucario was allowed to flee.
2 year Later-
Lucario now at the age of 25 found him-self in another large battle over mibu. The war had gone on for five years and it was about to come to an end in The siege of Mibu which began , when Hanzo led three thousand men across the Kizu River, destroying the fort there. A week later, he attacked the village of Enga with 1,500 men against a defending force of 600. With the aid of a squad of arquebuses, Hanzos forces claimed victory once again. Several more small forts and villages were attacked before the siege on Mibu. Lucario built a small fortress called Luca-maru in the southwest of the village. The Luca-maru was an earthwork barbician defended by Lucario and approximately 7000 men, the remaining army of mibu. From there, he defeated the Hanzo forces (approximately 30,000 men) with groups of 6000 arquebusiers. The hanzos forces were repeatedly repelled, and Lucario and his men launched a number of attacks against the siege lines, breaking through three times. Hanzo then resorted to artillery as well as men employed to dig under the walls of the fortress. The fortress was impregnable; the Hanzo army suffered much losses. So Hanzo gave up trying to destroy the castle during this battle, and proposed a reconciliation with the leaders of Mibu. This was Lucario’s insidious strategy. He proposed a condition for the reconciliation, i.e. to destroy the outer moat of hanzos main camp and in return Lucario withdraws his men further. When Lucarios envoy came into Hanzos main camp they destroyed not only the outer moat but the inner moat as well. This sent his name through the ranks as a great strategest and fighter.
From there Lucario forced Hanzo to surrender since he had taken the main camp and had captured Hanzo. Hanzo had no choice or he'd risk losing his head. Lucario then turned the army back to the leader of his clan and left.
4 years later-
For the past four years Lucario was a bodyguard for hire. It was during these times Lucario had earned the title the legendary knight for always getting any job done but due to his violent past and made up rumors he had earned the title "The Legendary Dark Knight". Due to his succes Lucario had desided to open up a shop for his business though it has yet to be named he hopes to one day to find a name. The shop is now located in Kalm.
Though now he offers more serveices than being a bodyguard. He has now become a mercenary/ private detectiave. He takes jobs from hunting fiends to find people to even retrieving treasure, and mako.
Name: Lucario Yamada
Alias: Luca, Ario, or Rio
Title: The Legendary Dark Knight
Alignment/Affiliation
Age:29
Race: Human
REQUIRED FOR CUSTOM/NON-CANON ONLY
Appearance:Lucario stands at a height of 6 foot 2 inches. His silver/white hair is always down and some what messy, he has electric-blue eyes and smile that seems to charm a lot of people. His body is some what muscular and toned to point. Not like body builder toned but more of an athletic build. On his back he has a large cross shaped scar extending all the way across.
His clothing consists of a black boxer briefs, royal purple pants, a long royal purple jacket in which the tail extends all the way down to the back of his knees. The jacket has black trim on the wrists of the sleeves and on the collar. The inside of the jacket is also black made out of soft material. Over his left eyes he wears a monocle with gold trim around the light purple glass. Around his neck he is always seen wearing a black scarf the wraps around his neck several times and neatly comes to a end in a neatly tied knot. On top of the scarf Lucario wears a red amulet. (A memento for something) On his hands he constantly wears black gloves and on his feet her wears black socks with black shoes.
Personality: Lucario is incredibly flippant, mouthing off to even the most powerful of enemies and he generally enjoys rubbing people the wrong way. He did mature as time goes by, but never really loses his attitude. Lucario rarely shows any seriousness. He can be serious when the situation calls for it, but he still maintains a fairly laid-back demeanor during such situations and is never without a witty taunt or comeback. He can seem at times to be uncaring or even callous, but actually has a very strong sense of justice and prefers to fight fairly. He can be counted on to do the right thing, even if he makes cynical quips about it the entire time.
Despite verbally complaining about being in debt, Lucario seems quite willing to perform missions solely for the good of them, and rarely enforces payment from poor clients. In fact, Lucario will typically refuse any job he dislikes, regardless of how much it pays, but will immediately take on any special case, with or without pay. Many of his clients take advantage of this good nature of his, and leave bills for property damage caused during the mission instead of paying for his services
has a fondness for pizza, and while he complains about olives, he always ends up with them on his pizza. His liking for pizza was added because the director believes that pizza is the "best food ever".He also has a habit of getting roaring drunk;he mentions getting so drunk that he proposed to a mop. He has horrible luck with gambling and tries to avoid it but he gambles anyways. He usually waits around reading or walking around where ever he is traveling.
• Flaws |
Forgiveness- He has remarkable intuition at seeing the good in others in spite of their actions, though his capacity for forgiving his enemies has occasionally been criticized as excessive. He never intends to kill anyone so he leaves him-self un-guarded and turns his back to his enemy in which they try to take advantage of it and attack him. He only resorts to killing as a last resort but even when he does he wont let it go and beat him-self up for time to come.
• Habits |
He also has a habit of getting roaring drunk;he mentions getting so drunk that he proposed to a mop. He drinks to hide the sadness deep with in his soul and will usually try to find someone to drink with since drinking alone is never fun. He'll always be a parties drinking or flirting sometimes both just so he can avoid the truth of reality.
gambling- Although he is not a big fan of it he tends to gamble alot. On what he gambles on he tends not to say but he trys to avoid since he knows its a bad habit of his but still does it anyway. He has won fortunes with it but also fell into poverty. All though his gambling problem was not as bad as it use to be he still tends to go around while he is drunk to have a little fun.
Abilities: His fighting style enables him to exercise superhuman speed and reflexes, study and predict his opponent's movements in battle, as well as perform many powerful sword techniques.
Aura Manipulation-This mean that Lucario can focus his own energy within his body and use it as a weapon. Lucario can form his aura into pretty much any form he wants such as a dragon which would require a large amount of aura all the way down to a little butterfly which would require almost no aura, and anything in between. Lucario is able to exert aura from all aspects of his body with easy. Lucario usually focuses his aura in his okatana to give him a great range of attack. Since with each slash a wave of aura flies towards his enemy. A flaw with this power is that if Lucario uses to much of his aura he is left vulnerable and his physical abilities start to be affect by this. The reason for this is since he uses his aura it puts a large strain on his body. Lucario is able to use his aura for 10 posts per fight if spreads out his aura attacks through out posts, But say if Lucario used his aura for 4-5 posts in a row he would be completely drained and fatigued.
Aura Attacks-
Ōra-dama (Aura Sphere)
Ōra-dama is a long-range ability blasting spheres at high speeds and shooting at the size of a basketball. Though it is purple and glowing of black around the waves of it. How far it can travel is limited to how much aura Lucario puts into. So if he is low on aura then it will not be able to ravel great distances, but this attack is special. The more damage Lucario takes the more powerful it becomes. This is most likely Lucarios signature move since he uses this attack to destroy all big enemies he fights. Lucario true mastery of this skill is astounding since he has perfected it to where he uses as little aura a possible but get the greats strength.
Ōrasutaffu (Aura Staff)
Ōrasutaffu is a staff made of pure aura and feels like steel when it collides with someone or a kishin. This attacked was created since Lucario has yet to find a partner that has appealed to him in the sense he deems fit.
Ōrabaria (Aura Barrier)
Ōrabaria is a barrier made out of Lucarios aura. It can be placed around him or others. The barrier is usually purple and every time it is attack black waves can be seen coming from the point of impact. The only flaw with this move is that Lucario cannot move since all his attention is focused on keeping the barrier up.
Ōrayashi (Aura Palm)
Ōrayashi is where Lucario focuses his aura or aura into his palm and feet. This is a close combat melee technique. Every blow that Lucario lands on his opponent he injects his own aura into them. The main effect is that it gives him the chance to slow his opponent. The main draw back is that it uses so much aura that after a short amount of time it'll drain Lucarios aura completely. The effect only lasts 1 post if he land anywhere from 1-10 full contact hit and if its 11 and above it'll last 2 posts at max but Lucario is only able to use this attack twice per fight.
Ōradoragon (Aura Dragon) [can only be used with a weapon]
Ōradoragon used for both long and close range combat. Lucario shouts the moves name and a dragon made of Aura would manifest it-self around Lucario like a shield or barrier protecting Lucario from physical attacks. it takes one full post without being attacked to use When signaled, the dragon will either shoot 5 blast of pure aura or wrap around the enemy slowing them down greatly. This skill can only be used once and will only last for 2 post if the dragon surrounds the enemy, but if Lucario uses the 5 blasts once the final blast is fired the dragon will disappear. Once used it'll leave Lucario vulnerable for a 2 post once the attack was finished. This attack can only be used once per thread
Weapons: Okatana, twin handguns, and aura
OPTIONAL
RP Sample: A new shop had just opened up in kalm. It was Lucarios new shop where everything he did would start from here. The office's furniture consisted of an old-fashioned jukebox (an antique worth quite a bit of money), a billiard table (including snooker cues), a sofa and, of course, Lucario's personal desk. There was also an upstairs bedroom the Lucario never used since he moved into his new shop. He always slept in the chair behind his desk or on the sofa. In the back of the shop there was a bathroom where Lucario washes his hair.
Lucario walked out of the bathroom only wearing his purple pants, black shoes and black gloves. His white hair dripped water as he ran his hands through it quickly making the water fly off his hair. He turned to his left as the phone on his desk began to ring. Lucario walked towards his desk as saw that his chair was knocked over but kept walking towards it. As he approached it he kicked the chair making it fly up in the air doing a full spin landing on all four legs.Lucario sat down on the chair as he lifted up his feet slamming the heel of his left foot down on the top of the desk. The phone handle flew up towards Lucario as he caught it with his left hand. He moved the phone to his ear and gave a little smile.
"Sorry we're not open for business yet... I haven't even picked a name for this joint and I'm all ready getting calls.
He couldn't help but give a little laugh since he had just returned from the desert after hunting a fiend and hadn't even been home for a full day and he was all ready getting calls to go with people to do other jobs. He leaned leaned back in his chair as he looked over to his white shirt, black scarf, and purple coat hanging on the coat rack. He should get dressed he thought but then again there was no rush. Suddenly there was knock on the door of his shop. Lucario put his chair back on all fours and stood up walking to the door.
Lucario opened the door and there stood someone holding a box of pizza. The little delivery boy handed Lucario the pizza and stood there watching. Lucario took it opening the pizza box and sighed. It seemed they had put black olives and he hated them but yet he told them so he was contradicting him-self. Lucario closed the pizza box and walked back inside slowly closing the door putting the pizza on his desk. Though it seemed the the boy has slipped in side saying that Lucario had to pay for it.
"Just tell Anthony I'll pay my tab in full by the end of the month"
Lucario then looked at the door and then back at the kid. The kid got the int that he should leave. He opened the door and walked out. Lucario opened the pizza box taking out a pizza slice and took a bite. He leaned back in his chair thinking on what he was going to do he knew he wouldn't be able to stay here for long since the phone kept ringing. Lucario then stood back up and walked to the jukebox and pushed a button as rock song came on and Lucario closed his eyes nodding to the beat as he closed his eyes. Then he opened the window as the music started to drift out into the open and Lucario walked back to his desk grabbing another slice of pizza.
Fighting Style: Gatotsu Fighting style-
This is the fighting style that Lucario uses at all times. Gatotsu is primarily based on defensive manoeuvrings that allow Lucario to evade and retreat from oncoming enemy attacks as he please, but after training he began to show how truly flexible it can be by allowing him to be offensive from time to time.
With this he was able to create the three sections of the Gatotsu the basic advance and mastery. The basic stance of the Gatotsu called The "Hirazuki" (left-handed stab) technique. His advance style which he has yet to name to his most powerful techniques which require mastery of the basic and advance. Lucario has changed this fighting style from a simple sword wielding technique to a deadly style which has yet to be fully developed.
This fighting style is used for both his hand to hand fighting and his sword fighting though some of the movements differ from when he fights with his sword and hands. Lucarios mastery of the style enables him to exercise superhuman speed and reflexes, study and predict his opponent's movements in battle, as well as perform many powerful sword technique
Gatotsu basic sword attacks and stances
The First Stance (Ishiki) is the standard, shoulder-level ground attack. He prepares by dropping into a partial crouch, both knees bent, left arm drawn back and right extended forward; he grasps the kashira (endcap of the tsuka, or hilt) of his sword with his left hand and rests the tips of the fingers of his right hand (usually the thumb) on the blade near its tip.
The second Stance (Sanshiki) is an upward-striking attack. Prepared identically to the Ishiki, he uses it to intercept an opponent assaulting him from above, directing his blade into the air instead of immediately forward.
The third Stance (Nishiki) is a downward-striking attack. The direction of the Nishiki thrust is narrower, as well.
Advance Style- this style involves attacks with both the sword and scabbard and it emphasizes quick dodges and maneuvers, though people who have seen this fighting style they all said he has god like speed but people with great intelligence and skill have found ways to even the battlefield.
Gatotsu Ryu Do Ryu San(Ground Dragon Flash) = Giant blow against the ground, causing massive airwaves/rocks to strike enemies.
Gatotsu Ryu Tsui Sen(Dragon Mallot Flash) = Jumps up in the air really high and then strikes down hard from above.
Gatotsu Ryu Kan Sen(Dragon Wind Up Flash) = Lunges toward enemy using a very powerful twist of the body doing a sideways slash.
Gatotsu Ryu Sou Sen(Double Dragon Flash) = Multiple Slashes against enemy.
Gatotsu Ryu Kan Sen Tsumuji(Dragon Wind Up Flash Hair Spin)= Tsumuji(gyrate) involves higher speed than Ryu Kan Sen. Basically same attack but more powerful.
Gatotsu Ryu Sho Sen(Dragon Rising Flash) = Rises up from ground, using all force in an uppercut, hitting vital points.
Gatotsu Ryu Hi-Ryu Sen(Flying Dragon Slash) = Performed by left hand only, attack uses centrifugal force to create a powerful blow with the hilt in a persons weakness, like in between the eyes.
Gatotsu Ryu Sou Ryu Sen(Paired Dragon Flash) = Paired attack with sword and sheath. If sword is blocked, sheath comes in and hits enemy.
Gatotsu Ryu Ku Zu Ryu Sen(Nine Headed Dragon Flash) = Attack learned before the most powerful succesion technique. Strikes with the sword nine times on the 9 vital points, head, right leg, left leg, right arm, left arm, between the legs, the chest, right shoulder, and left shoulder,.
Mastery Move-
Gatotsu Zero Stance (Zeroshiki). Zeroshiki is an attack performed at point-blank range using all his upper body strength. This stance, unlike the first three, requires no prior preparation or footwork.
Gatotsu Ryu Ouki Ama Kakeru Ryu No Hirameki(Heaven's Soaring Dragon Flash) = THE SUCCESION TECHNIQUE. Normally when using the Batto Jutsu, the right leg is placed in front of the left leg so as not to cut your leg off when drawing your sword from the left, but with this you put your left leg in front giving your attack the most power it can get, and must twist your body at the right time so as not to cut your leg off. In order to do this he must have a strong will to live. This move is actually a combo of two, because if this move is executed properly, if the first hit is blocked, then the person spins around, and slices again. It works because apparently after the first strike, the sword somehow makes a kind of vortex, sucking in the enemy, allowing the person to be close enough to be sliced again, kind of like a vacuum.
Tecnhniques-
Name: Afterimage but is called "Zanzo"
Type: Physical/ illusion
Range: all ranges depending on the situation
Description:This illusion is based on the structure of the Gatotsu. Like the Gatotsu there are three styles of this move. Each one faster than the last but with each form of the Zanzo the strain on the muscles becomes even greater.
Zanzo- The regular zanzo can be used at anytime while fighting or not fighting. This move is used to avoid on coming attackers or used to confuse the enemy to allow for an opening in their defense depending on the persons ability to perceive the illusion. The zanzo leaves behind a blur of the person who has just performed it. This form of the zanzo is the one Lucario will try to use the most since it has the least amount of strain on his body. Which is why Lucario created so as not to always push his body.
Advanced Zanzo- unlike the regular zanzo it actually leaves behind the after image of the user. The image may appear to talk if Lucario is talking giving it the illusion that it is still him. The after image slowly fades as the eye registers what has just happened. This attack is primarily used during the advance fighting of the Gatotsu or when Lucario uses his battojutsu. Though is can be used during the basic stance as well. This attack is used for when he is outnumbered or his opponents or his opponent is very strong.
Master Zanzo-This is the fastest Lucario can move since it utilizes his entire god like speed. It allows for a movement at great speed leaving an afterimage behind. The afterimage may even appear to have taken damage but what makes this the mastery move is that Lucario moves fast enough to create more than one afterimage and each one has a little bit of his own aura. With that aura the images are able to inflect damage to an opponent but will vanish instantly. This is the only Lucario is able to use the master techniques of the Gatotsu.
The requirements to fully master the zanzo the user must be trained in the Gatotsu since its sword style is what builds up the muscles to with stand such a strain. This move can't be simply learned from just watching because the speed of this move is faster than the human eye can perceive which is why it gives it the illusion of leaving the afterimages behind. Also the user must be able to use their aura (wavelength) with this attack since it stops the user from losing balance of seriously injuring them-selves from moving quickly.
the zanzo can be used as many times as Lucario deems fit or until his legs get hurt or his body is in critical condition.The master zanzo for can only be used 4 times a thread while the advance zanzo and zanzo can be used as much as he needs to that is unless his has used up much of his aura during his fight to where then only the regular zanzo is achievable.. As powerful as this move is there are a great number of flaws but his enemy has to be able to perceive them.
History/Background Lucario Yamada was born in village known as Hizo. On an island of the coast off the mainland. His mother was Luna Yamada and his father Tenchi Yamada. The newborn laughed out as the parents tried to figure out the little ones name. They decided to mix their names and come out with Lucario Yamada. The parents looked at each other and smiled, saying “Lucario Yamada.” The baby giggled at the name as he liked it. Very much. Lucario was put in a cold, dark room where he slept. The baby began easily snoring as they went upstairs and went to sleep.
A bird had set feet on the top of the house. A man took a needle and threw it at the bird straight through the head. The man started laughing and walked around the house to the back window. The man roughly smashed it with his hand and jumped straight in. He rolled over and ran into a room hoping to find something interesting, his instinct. The man walked up to the baby and picked him up. He jumped out of the window without any second thought. He ran with the baby to a far off river where he joined with his party it had seemed. He jumped on the boat and signaled the others to get on fast.
They set the baby down on the side and started rowing as soon as they all got on. It would take a couple of weeks to get back to the Japan main land, but getting there was worth it since Getting a baby, they could sell it for a slave or something. Lucario soon fell asleep after crying for at least thirty minutes. He woke up five hours later. He found himself in a the boat still on the bank of the river, all five of the Chinese men, were laying down by the boat dead. Lucario didn’t seem to know anything about what had happened, though he felt something was wrong. Lucario farted and crawled over to one of the bodies and attempted to touch one of their swords the men held earlier.
An arm reached at Lucario and grabbed him by the head, he was grabbed by a huge man, a samurai it seemed. The man took the baby and got in the boat and immediately began rowing. Lucario giggled at the man and started fiddling with the man’s toes. The man had some special medicine that he fed the child, making him fall into a deep sleep. The only food they had was coconuts, and the water from the ocean. They could survive. But with Lucario under that medicine he could survive for a week. Some type of special medicine stuff.
A few days later, Lucario had seemed to wake up, they were in the middle of the Ocean. That man was still rowing. But to Lucario, he just wanted food. He crawled over to an open fruit he seemed to had been eating and started eating off it. It was good to Lucario, he actually loved it. The child kept eating off it like it was his last meal. He was truly hungry. A few minutes later the man started laughed at ;Lucario. He just shook his head and smiled at the boy, telling him one thing. Knowing he couldn’t even understand him right at this point. “You’re going to be my Apprentice. Back in Mibu.”
12 years Later-
As the years passed by, Lucario had adapted the customs of Mibu. The man had taught him how to speak and even taught him a bit of fighting skills. He had learn a style of Kendo which was called Gatotsu. Amateur yet still amazing how he learned so much of it so fast. One day upon these years the man told Lucario to attack him with the intent of killing him. Lucario shook his head as he couldn't or rather he didn't want to.
Saito shook his head and slapped the boy and asked him to do it again, still keeping his calm. Lucario however had begun to get mad. He started blasting at him. “No Master Saito!!! I ain’t gonna kill you. You have not even harmed me! You-“ Lucario tried to go on, yet he was stopped in the middle of his sentence with a punch to a face. He went flying back, hitting the wall of the Dojo. Saito slowly walked up to Lucario and grabbed his neck, he pulled him up into the air and grew angry.
Lucario was dazed out. Like he was having a flash back. He saw two figures , a male and a female. The woman seemed to be in love with the man as they looked each other deep into the eye. And gave the boy a look, a special look. They both laughed and said the same thing. ‘Lucario Yamada.’ Lucario smiled as he took another hit to the face, smashing straight into the ground. Lucario opened his eyes and coughed out a burp of blood. It shot straight at Saito's face. “Boy! you better fight me with everything you have or you'll end up dying right now."
Lucario yelled out, pulled out his katana and sliced down at the man. Yet Saito slapped the blade straight out of his hand, watching it slowly hit the wall and got stuck in it. Saito kicked the boy in the stomach and slammed his fist down on Lucario’s head, knocking him right into the ground. The Samurai unsheathed his katana. The Samurai grabbed the boy by his neck and threw him into the air, hitting his head straight into the ceiling. He broke right into the wood. About thirty seconds later he fell down on his legs and hit his face on the ground.
Saito flipped him over by his foot on his back. he slammed his foot on his stomach and pulled his right hand back, the hand with the katana in it. Lucario moved his right leg to the left causing his body to turn. Saito flew based him landing gently on the floor. It seemed now that Lucario knew he had to fight or he would die. Lucario then moved both of his arms up with his right arm further out than his left. Lucario ran towards Saito only to drop on his right fore-arm and threw his left leg sideways doing a sweeping leg motion. Saito jumped over sweep but then Lucario used all the muscle in his fore-arm that was on the ground and pushed him-self up. His left leg kept doing the sweeping motion as now Lucario was doing a backward heel kick aiming for Saito body.The attack connected but was quickly countered as Saito slammed the hilt off his katana into the leg of Lucario. Lucario fell down laying there breathing hard. He had lost and knew he was going to die but Saito pulled him and helped him stand. "Not bad you are truly starting to master the Gatotsu. Remember it's based on people emotions and the way their bodies move. Everyone's fighting style has a flaw even if it is said that they don't remember that. Now go prepare some white lotus flower and a blue thorn bush remedy for your wounds.
Lucario limped towards the kitchen of the small dojo and began to mix the ingredients. First his smashed the flower and bush into a fine powder then he began to heat up some water. He was going to brew tea that would release his body from the pain that it was. Though he didn't know it Lucario had grabbed the silver thorn vine by accident instead of the blue thorn bush. It was due to the fact that he felt like passing out from the pain and just wanted to rest. As he mixed the two powders together and grabbed the tea pot. As he poured the hot water there was in explosion of dust. It shot upward as Lucario fell back. Saito walked in wondering what happened. Lucario sat up holding his head and Saitos eyes had a puzzled look on them. It seemed the explosion had changed Lucarios hair color from brown to white. Saito cut it thinking that it would grow back into its normal color but when it grew back it was still white. Saito laughed "Well looks like you're stuck with that white hair Luca."
5 years later-
Lucario was now 17 and had learned almost every aspect of the gatotsu. Ever since he was 15 he had been training blind folded and forced to attack Saito head on. Saito would only show the move once to Lucario and then would have Lucario attack him. This was for two reason the first this would allow Lucario to learn more quickly on how enemies attack and how to counter and second was that this was how the Saito was taught. Lucario had to fight blind folded to help increase his hearing. Since he was blind folded his body would have to make up for the lost of sight with increasing its own strength smell taste and hearing. This training was like that of almost a ninja. Since the Saito was based on speed as well as flexibility.
Lucario stood there holding his katana in his left hand and waited to hear the movement. Then there was a bell ringing and now another sense had been taking away. His hearing was gone as well. Suddenly Lucario felt a strong jab into his abs as he bent over opening his mouth. Lucario fell down holding his stomach. Saito sighed "Lucario you have mastered every aspect of fighting of the Gutotsu style but now I'll show you the true power that lies within it. Gutotsu is not only a fighting style but you can use your own life force or aura. This aura is your ultimate weapon. It's strong than your fists and quicker than your feet. Look deep within your-self and focus. Try to manifest the energy within your-self."
Lucario stood up focusing. Nothing was happening but he kept trying and trying. Soon a purple aura began to form around Lucario and his white hair had begun to raise. Soon everything around him could be seen clearly it was as if his eyes were open. He could see the aura around him and Saitos Aura. Lucario began chuckle and ran as Saito throwing a punch into Saito left ribs. Saito slid into the wall hitting it causing it to crack. "Who the hell said attack me!" Saito said but he couldn't help but smile. In so little time Lucario had all ready come this far. There was no doubt that he would be fine when the final test of the gatotsu came, but the ending wouldn't be nice. "Now Lucario you need to train in forming this aura into whatever shape you want. I cannot teach your moves using your aura these come from within and will be your unique style."
Four years later-
Lucario was 21 years old. He sat in a meadow with his eyes closed as there was a purple orb in front of him shaping into different forms. Then his eyes opened quickly and and aura sphere vanished. The sound of war echoed around the meadow. The small province of mibu was at war.
2 years later
Lord Hanzo had huge supplies of rice stocked up near the North Mountain. Lucario was only given a hand full or soliders but still sent his soldiers out to fight, they attacked Hanzo’s army and took the supplies. How ever reinforcements did not go and aid Lucario and his men. Hanso’s main force was marching at that time; Lucario ran into Hanzo’s vanguards. Not soon after the two sides commenced to engage in battle, Hanzo’s main force arrived. The situation became very perilous for Lucario, as he and his men were greatly outnumbered. Lucario decided to attack the frontline of Hanzo’s army. Hanzo’s men were surprised by the attack and momentarily dispersed. However, they soon regrouped and surrounded Lucario. Lucario fought his way out toward his own camp. When he found out a lieutenant general was wounded and fell behind, he went back to rescue him.
Lucario fought with everything he had blood on him. His wound ripped open all across his body. The men in Hanzos army said he fought like something out of darkness. It was the type of rage and fighting that was only spoken in legend. As he picked up the wounded Lt. The small army of Mibu had finally arrived and took on Hanzos main force. With this small opening Lucario was allowed to flee.
2 year Later-
Lucario now at the age of 25 found him-self in another large battle over mibu. The war had gone on for five years and it was about to come to an end in The siege of Mibu which began , when Hanzo led three thousand men across the Kizu River, destroying the fort there. A week later, he attacked the village of Enga with 1,500 men against a defending force of 600. With the aid of a squad of arquebuses, Hanzos forces claimed victory once again. Several more small forts and villages were attacked before the siege on Mibu. Lucario built a small fortress called Luca-maru in the southwest of the village. The Luca-maru was an earthwork barbician defended by Lucario and approximately 7000 men, the remaining army of mibu. From there, he defeated the Hanzo forces (approximately 30,000 men) with groups of 6000 arquebusiers. The hanzos forces were repeatedly repelled, and Lucario and his men launched a number of attacks against the siege lines, breaking through three times. Hanzo then resorted to artillery as well as men employed to dig under the walls of the fortress. The fortress was impregnable; the Hanzo army suffered much losses. So Hanzo gave up trying to destroy the castle during this battle, and proposed a reconciliation with the leaders of Mibu. This was Lucario’s insidious strategy. He proposed a condition for the reconciliation, i.e. to destroy the outer moat of hanzos main camp and in return Lucario withdraws his men further. When Lucarios envoy came into Hanzos main camp they destroyed not only the outer moat but the inner moat as well. This sent his name through the ranks as a great strategest and fighter.
From there Lucario forced Hanzo to surrender since he had taken the main camp and had captured Hanzo. Hanzo had no choice or he'd risk losing his head. Lucario then turned the army back to the leader of his clan and left.
4 years later-
For the past four years Lucario was a bodyguard for hire. It was during these times Lucario had earned the title the legendary knight for always getting any job done but due to his violent past and made up rumors he had earned the title "The Legendary Dark Knight". Due to his succes Lucario had desided to open up a shop for his business though it has yet to be named he hopes to one day to find a name. The shop is now located in Kalm.
Though now he offers more serveices than being a bodyguard. He has now become a mercenary/ private detectiave. He takes jobs from hunting fiends to find people to even retrieving treasure, and mako.
Name: Lucario Yamada
Alias: Luca, Ario, or Rio
Title: The Legendary Dark Knight
Alignment/Affiliation
Age:29
Race: Human
REQUIRED FOR CUSTOM/NON-CANON ONLY
Appearance:Lucario stands at a height of 6 foot 2 inches. His silver/white hair is always down and some what messy, he has electric-blue eyes and smile that seems to charm a lot of people. His body is some what muscular and toned to point. Not like body builder toned but more of an athletic build. On his back he has a large cross shaped scar extending all the way across.
His clothing consists of a black boxer briefs, royal purple pants, a long royal purple jacket in which the tail extends all the way down to the back of his knees. The jacket has black trim on the wrists of the sleeves and on the collar. The inside of the jacket is also black made out of soft material. Over his left eyes he wears a monocle with gold trim around the light purple glass. Around his neck he is always seen wearing a black scarf the wraps around his neck several times and neatly comes to a end in a neatly tied knot. On top of the scarf Lucario wears a red amulet. (A memento for something) On his hands he constantly wears black gloves and on his feet her wears black socks with black shoes.
Personality: Lucario is incredibly flippant, mouthing off to even the most powerful of enemies and he generally enjoys rubbing people the wrong way. He did mature as time goes by, but never really loses his attitude. Lucario rarely shows any seriousness. He can be serious when the situation calls for it, but he still maintains a fairly laid-back demeanor during such situations and is never without a witty taunt or comeback. He can seem at times to be uncaring or even callous, but actually has a very strong sense of justice and prefers to fight fairly. He can be counted on to do the right thing, even if he makes cynical quips about it the entire time.
Despite verbally complaining about being in debt, Lucario seems quite willing to perform missions solely for the good of them, and rarely enforces payment from poor clients. In fact, Lucario will typically refuse any job he dislikes, regardless of how much it pays, but will immediately take on any special case, with or without pay. Many of his clients take advantage of this good nature of his, and leave bills for property damage caused during the mission instead of paying for his services
has a fondness for pizza, and while he complains about olives, he always ends up with them on his pizza. His liking for pizza was added because the director believes that pizza is the "best food ever".He also has a habit of getting roaring drunk;he mentions getting so drunk that he proposed to a mop. He has horrible luck with gambling and tries to avoid it but he gambles anyways. He usually waits around reading or walking around where ever he is traveling.
• Flaws |
Forgiveness- He has remarkable intuition at seeing the good in others in spite of their actions, though his capacity for forgiving his enemies has occasionally been criticized as excessive. He never intends to kill anyone so he leaves him-self un-guarded and turns his back to his enemy in which they try to take advantage of it and attack him. He only resorts to killing as a last resort but even when he does he wont let it go and beat him-self up for time to come.
• Habits |
He also has a habit of getting roaring drunk;he mentions getting so drunk that he proposed to a mop. He drinks to hide the sadness deep with in his soul and will usually try to find someone to drink with since drinking alone is never fun. He'll always be a parties drinking or flirting sometimes both just so he can avoid the truth of reality.
gambling- Although he is not a big fan of it he tends to gamble alot. On what he gambles on he tends not to say but he trys to avoid since he knows its a bad habit of his but still does it anyway. He has won fortunes with it but also fell into poverty. All though his gambling problem was not as bad as it use to be he still tends to go around while he is drunk to have a little fun.
Abilities: His fighting style enables him to exercise superhuman speed and reflexes, study and predict his opponent's movements in battle, as well as perform many powerful sword techniques.
Aura Manipulation-This mean that Lucario can focus his own energy within his body and use it as a weapon. Lucario can form his aura into pretty much any form he wants such as a dragon which would require a large amount of aura all the way down to a little butterfly which would require almost no aura, and anything in between. Lucario is able to exert aura from all aspects of his body with easy. Lucario usually focuses his aura in his okatana to give him a great range of attack. Since with each slash a wave of aura flies towards his enemy. A flaw with this power is that if Lucario uses to much of his aura he is left vulnerable and his physical abilities start to be affect by this. The reason for this is since he uses his aura it puts a large strain on his body. Lucario is able to use his aura for 10 posts per fight if spreads out his aura attacks through out posts, But say if Lucario used his aura for 4-5 posts in a row he would be completely drained and fatigued.
Aura Attacks-
Ōra-dama (Aura Sphere)
Ōra-dama is a long-range ability blasting spheres at high speeds and shooting at the size of a basketball. Though it is purple and glowing of black around the waves of it. How far it can travel is limited to how much aura Lucario puts into. So if he is low on aura then it will not be able to ravel great distances, but this attack is special. The more damage Lucario takes the more powerful it becomes. This is most likely Lucarios signature move since he uses this attack to destroy all big enemies he fights. Lucario true mastery of this skill is astounding since he has perfected it to where he uses as little aura a possible but get the greats strength.
Ōrasutaffu (Aura Staff)
Ōrasutaffu is a staff made of pure aura and feels like steel when it collides with someone or a kishin. This attacked was created since Lucario has yet to find a partner that has appealed to him in the sense he deems fit.
Ōrabaria (Aura Barrier)
Ōrabaria is a barrier made out of Lucarios aura. It can be placed around him or others. The barrier is usually purple and every time it is attack black waves can be seen coming from the point of impact. The only flaw with this move is that Lucario cannot move since all his attention is focused on keeping the barrier up.
Ōrayashi (Aura Palm)
Ōrayashi is where Lucario focuses his aura or aura into his palm and feet. This is a close combat melee technique. Every blow that Lucario lands on his opponent he injects his own aura into them. The main effect is that it gives him the chance to slow his opponent. The main draw back is that it uses so much aura that after a short amount of time it'll drain Lucarios aura completely. The effect only lasts 1 post if he land anywhere from 1-10 full contact hit and if its 11 and above it'll last 2 posts at max but Lucario is only able to use this attack twice per fight.
Ōradoragon (Aura Dragon) [can only be used with a weapon]
Ōradoragon used for both long and close range combat. Lucario shouts the moves name and a dragon made of Aura would manifest it-self around Lucario like a shield or barrier protecting Lucario from physical attacks. it takes one full post without being attacked to use When signaled, the dragon will either shoot 5 blast of pure aura or wrap around the enemy slowing them down greatly. This skill can only be used once and will only last for 2 post if the dragon surrounds the enemy, but if Lucario uses the 5 blasts once the final blast is fired the dragon will disappear. Once used it'll leave Lucario vulnerable for a 2 post once the attack was finished. This attack can only be used once per thread
Weapons: Okatana, twin handguns, and aura
OPTIONAL
RP Sample: A new shop had just opened up in kalm. It was Lucarios new shop where everything he did would start from here. The office's furniture consisted of an old-fashioned jukebox (an antique worth quite a bit of money), a billiard table (including snooker cues), a sofa and, of course, Lucario's personal desk. There was also an upstairs bedroom the Lucario never used since he moved into his new shop. He always slept in the chair behind his desk or on the sofa. In the back of the shop there was a bathroom where Lucario washes his hair.
Lucario walked out of the bathroom only wearing his purple pants, black shoes and black gloves. His white hair dripped water as he ran his hands through it quickly making the water fly off his hair. He turned to his left as the phone on his desk began to ring. Lucario walked towards his desk as saw that his chair was knocked over but kept walking towards it. As he approached it he kicked the chair making it fly up in the air doing a full spin landing on all four legs.Lucario sat down on the chair as he lifted up his feet slamming the heel of his left foot down on the top of the desk. The phone handle flew up towards Lucario as he caught it with his left hand. He moved the phone to his ear and gave a little smile.
"Sorry we're not open for business yet... I haven't even picked a name for this joint and I'm all ready getting calls.
He couldn't help but give a little laugh since he had just returned from the desert after hunting a fiend and hadn't even been home for a full day and he was all ready getting calls to go with people to do other jobs. He leaned leaned back in his chair as he looked over to his white shirt, black scarf, and purple coat hanging on the coat rack. He should get dressed he thought but then again there was no rush. Suddenly there was knock on the door of his shop. Lucario put his chair back on all fours and stood up walking to the door.
Lucario opened the door and there stood someone holding a box of pizza. The little delivery boy handed Lucario the pizza and stood there watching. Lucario took it opening the pizza box and sighed. It seemed they had put black olives and he hated them but yet he told them so he was contradicting him-self. Lucario closed the pizza box and walked back inside slowly closing the door putting the pizza on his desk. Though it seemed the the boy has slipped in side saying that Lucario had to pay for it.
"Just tell Anthony I'll pay my tab in full by the end of the month"
Lucario then looked at the door and then back at the kid. The kid got the int that he should leave. He opened the door and walked out. Lucario opened the pizza box taking out a pizza slice and took a bite. He leaned back in his chair thinking on what he was going to do he knew he wouldn't be able to stay here for long since the phone kept ringing. Lucario then stood back up and walked to the jukebox and pushed a button as rock song came on and Lucario closed his eyes nodding to the beat as he closed his eyes. Then he opened the window as the music started to drift out into the open and Lucario walked back to his desk grabbing another slice of pizza.
Fighting Style: Gatotsu Fighting style-
This is the fighting style that Lucario uses at all times. Gatotsu is primarily based on defensive manoeuvrings that allow Lucario to evade and retreat from oncoming enemy attacks as he please, but after training he began to show how truly flexible it can be by allowing him to be offensive from time to time.
With this he was able to create the three sections of the Gatotsu the basic advance and mastery. The basic stance of the Gatotsu called The "Hirazuki" (left-handed stab) technique. His advance style which he has yet to name to his most powerful techniques which require mastery of the basic and advance. Lucario has changed this fighting style from a simple sword wielding technique to a deadly style which has yet to be fully developed.
This fighting style is used for both his hand to hand fighting and his sword fighting though some of the movements differ from when he fights with his sword and hands. Lucarios mastery of the style enables him to exercise superhuman speed and reflexes, study and predict his opponent's movements in battle, as well as perform many powerful sword technique
Gatotsu basic sword attacks and stances
The First Stance (Ishiki) is the standard, shoulder-level ground attack. He prepares by dropping into a partial crouch, both knees bent, left arm drawn back and right extended forward; he grasps the kashira (endcap of the tsuka, or hilt) of his sword with his left hand and rests the tips of the fingers of his right hand (usually the thumb) on the blade near its tip.
The second Stance (Sanshiki) is an upward-striking attack. Prepared identically to the Ishiki, he uses it to intercept an opponent assaulting him from above, directing his blade into the air instead of immediately forward.
The third Stance (Nishiki) is a downward-striking attack. The direction of the Nishiki thrust is narrower, as well.
Advance Style- this style involves attacks with both the sword and scabbard and it emphasizes quick dodges and maneuvers, though people who have seen this fighting style they all said he has god like speed but people with great intelligence and skill have found ways to even the battlefield.
Gatotsu Ryu Do Ryu San(Ground Dragon Flash) = Giant blow against the ground, causing massive airwaves/rocks to strike enemies.
Gatotsu Ryu Tsui Sen(Dragon Mallot Flash) = Jumps up in the air really high and then strikes down hard from above.
Gatotsu Ryu Kan Sen(Dragon Wind Up Flash) = Lunges toward enemy using a very powerful twist of the body doing a sideways slash.
Gatotsu Ryu Sou Sen(Double Dragon Flash) = Multiple Slashes against enemy.
Gatotsu Ryu Kan Sen Tsumuji(Dragon Wind Up Flash Hair Spin)= Tsumuji(gyrate) involves higher speed than Ryu Kan Sen. Basically same attack but more powerful.
Gatotsu Ryu Sho Sen(Dragon Rising Flash) = Rises up from ground, using all force in an uppercut, hitting vital points.
Gatotsu Ryu Hi-Ryu Sen(Flying Dragon Slash) = Performed by left hand only, attack uses centrifugal force to create a powerful blow with the hilt in a persons weakness, like in between the eyes.
Gatotsu Ryu Sou Ryu Sen(Paired Dragon Flash) = Paired attack with sword and sheath. If sword is blocked, sheath comes in and hits enemy.
Gatotsu Ryu Ku Zu Ryu Sen(Nine Headed Dragon Flash) = Attack learned before the most powerful succesion technique. Strikes with the sword nine times on the 9 vital points, head, right leg, left leg, right arm, left arm, between the legs, the chest, right shoulder, and left shoulder,.
Mastery Move-
Gatotsu Zero Stance (Zeroshiki). Zeroshiki is an attack performed at point-blank range using all his upper body strength. This stance, unlike the first three, requires no prior preparation or footwork.
Gatotsu Ryu Ouki Ama Kakeru Ryu No Hirameki(Heaven's Soaring Dragon Flash) = THE SUCCESION TECHNIQUE. Normally when using the Batto Jutsu, the right leg is placed in front of the left leg so as not to cut your leg off when drawing your sword from the left, but with this you put your left leg in front giving your attack the most power it can get, and must twist your body at the right time so as not to cut your leg off. In order to do this he must have a strong will to live. This move is actually a combo of two, because if this move is executed properly, if the first hit is blocked, then the person spins around, and slices again. It works because apparently after the first strike, the sword somehow makes a kind of vortex, sucking in the enemy, allowing the person to be close enough to be sliced again, kind of like a vacuum.
Tecnhniques-
Name: Afterimage but is called "Zanzo"
Type: Physical/ illusion
Range: all ranges depending on the situation
Description:This illusion is based on the structure of the Gatotsu. Like the Gatotsu there are three styles of this move. Each one faster than the last but with each form of the Zanzo the strain on the muscles becomes even greater.
Zanzo- The regular zanzo can be used at anytime while fighting or not fighting. This move is used to avoid on coming attackers or used to confuse the enemy to allow for an opening in their defense depending on the persons ability to perceive the illusion. The zanzo leaves behind a blur of the person who has just performed it. This form of the zanzo is the one Lucario will try to use the most since it has the least amount of strain on his body. Which is why Lucario created so as not to always push his body.
Advanced Zanzo- unlike the regular zanzo it actually leaves behind the after image of the user. The image may appear to talk if Lucario is talking giving it the illusion that it is still him. The after image slowly fades as the eye registers what has just happened. This attack is primarily used during the advance fighting of the Gatotsu or when Lucario uses his battojutsu. Though is can be used during the basic stance as well. This attack is used for when he is outnumbered or his opponents or his opponent is very strong.
Master Zanzo-This is the fastest Lucario can move since it utilizes his entire god like speed. It allows for a movement at great speed leaving an afterimage behind. The afterimage may even appear to have taken damage but what makes this the mastery move is that Lucario moves fast enough to create more than one afterimage and each one has a little bit of his own aura. With that aura the images are able to inflect damage to an opponent but will vanish instantly. This is the only Lucario is able to use the master techniques of the Gatotsu.
The requirements to fully master the zanzo the user must be trained in the Gatotsu since its sword style is what builds up the muscles to with stand such a strain. This move can't be simply learned from just watching because the speed of this move is faster than the human eye can perceive which is why it gives it the illusion of leaving the afterimages behind. Also the user must be able to use their aura (wavelength) with this attack since it stops the user from losing balance of seriously injuring them-selves from moving quickly.
the zanzo can be used as many times as Lucario deems fit or until his legs get hurt or his body is in critical condition.The master zanzo for can only be used 4 times a thread while the advance zanzo and zanzo can be used as much as he needs to that is unless his has used up much of his aura during his fight to where then only the regular zanzo is achievable.. As powerful as this move is there are a great number of flaws but his enemy has to be able to perceive them.
