  • Duration: Instant
  • Type: Subtle/Mental
  • Minimum Brawl: 3

Fighting dirty is the Sailor Warrior Way. This isn't the Olympic Games. The Magical Girl's unarmed blow strikes her foe in the groin.

When Groin kicks won't do, it's time to move up to something incapacitating. The Magical Girl choses a limb, then attacks at +2 difficulty. If she hits anyway, her victim rolls Stamina + Resistance with a difficulty of her Brawl. If he fails, the chosen limb cannot be used until healed; it is broken. If he succeeds, he suffers a -2 die penalty the rest of the fight from the injury to it.

Dirty Fighting Stance also allows you to parry lethal damage blows with your Brawl skill.

Tangling Waves

  • Cost: 3 motes
  • Duration: Instant
  • Type: Extra Actions
  • Minimum Brawl: 3
  • Minimum Moe: 2
  • Prerequisite Charms: Basic Brawl Prana

The Magical Girl lashes out like waves hitting the shore, and attacks two foes, pulling both into a clinch. (Roll once, each defends seperately.) If you grab only one, you do normally clinching damage and should probably cry at the waste of your Essence. But if you grab both, each round you maintain this charm and the clinch, each inflicts Clinching damage on each other when you inflict clinching damage on them (you are smacking them into each other. Clinching damage = Strength +2 Bashing)). Each suffers a +2 difficulty to escape the clinch, and if they choose to do damage, they also damage the other person in the clinch.
