Imagination Breaker

Skill Set Name:Imagination Breaker
Classifications:Trump, Thinker and Striker.
Skill Set Information: Focusing on Kenshin's natural nullification abilities, this skillset focuses on rendering the powers of enemies useless against him and leaving them open to attacks with tricky tactics. It doesn't have much in the way of a presence, only a slight mint glow forming around him when he defends against powerful techniques.
Passives:
Draining touch: Just coming into contact with a Trump user can leave someone feeling weaker. Whenever a character comes in physical contact with Kenshin, their passive abilities are nullified for their post following the touch.

Natural Mental Barrier: Kenshin's soul keeps him protected even from mental assault. When defending from will techniques, Kenshin's Will stat receives a bonus equal to 1/2 of his defense.

Neutralizing touch: Kenshin can instantly cancel out lasting effects of powers on himself as well as others by touching them quickly. i.e., eliminating poison effects, snuffing out flames caused by powers, dispelling the controlling effects of a Master on an ally/bystander, etc. Only works if Reigen touches them on his post after the effect would be started. Does not affect effects caused by B-rank techniques or higher.

Skill Set Strengths: -Renders the powers of most people ineffective, making them easier to subdue.
-Can be used to take people off-guard, helping end fights before they drag on too long.
Skill Set Weakness: -Is ineffective against machinery.
-Has little to no long or mid-range attacks.

Any Blaster class technique that has less power than 75% of his defense that he touches is erased from existence, disappearing as if it never existed. If he cannot react in time to catch the technique with his hands and it hits any other part of his body it only needs to have more than 50% of his defense to avoid being cancelled.

Technique's Duration Instant
Technique Description: Kenshin gets the target(s) attention, usually shouting something at them while pulling a coin on a string out of his pocket and swaying it like a pendulum as he slowly walks towards the target. If the target's Perception is lower than 75% of Kenshin's Intelligence, they are distracted by his antics and focus on the coin, not because of some power but simply because it looks ridiculous and is amusingly dumb. Once close enough, Kenshin suddenly uses his other hand to punch the target he's focused on. The punch is treated as if it has 100% strength because it is used while their guard is down. This technique does not work if the target has seen it before or if the target is engaged in active combat against another PC. If the target's perception is higher than his intelligence, they notice the trick and can avoid it if their speed is higher than 75% of Kenshin's speed. Cost 25VP per use.

Passives:
Draining touch: Just coming into contact with a Trump user can leave someone feeling weaker. Whenever a character comes in physical contact with Kenshin, their passive abilities are nullified for 2 of their posts. - This seems to be more of an ability rather than a passive due to completely nullifying other passives via touch, though if you wanted to instead reduce the effectiveness of other abilities as a passive by a minor amount I would allow that. I would also allow this if it worked for only the post following the touch as a passive.

Natural Mental Barrier: Kenshin's soul keeps him protected even from mental assault. When defending from will techniques, Kenshin's Will stat receives a bonus equal to 1/2 of his defense.

Neutralizing touch: Kenshin can cancel out lasting effects of powers on himself as well as others by touching them quickly. i.e., nuetrilizing poison effects, snuffing out flames caused by powers, dispelling the controlling effects of a Master on an ally/bystander, etc. - Does this need to be done immediately? If not, how long does the user have to do this? Does it instantly break the aforementioned effects or does it only provide a bonus? Also at what point can the abilities simply outpower this as a passive?

Technique Description: Kenshin focuses his power into stopping energy techniques with one or both hands. Any Blaster class technique that has less power than his defense that he touches is erased from existence, disappearing as if it never existed. - Due to being a C Ranked technique, this would need to be 3/4ths of the user defense,
unless you wanted to use this as a B Rank in which case it would be fine as is.

Another note, does this work on abilities he cannot react to? Does he need to consciously know of and touch the ability and does it only work on single target abiltiies or AOEs as well?Costs 25VP.

Technique Description: Kenshin gets the target(s) attention, usually shouting something at them while pulling a coin on a string out of his pocket and swaying it like a pendulum as he slowly walks towards the target. If the target's Perception is lower than Kenshin's Intelligence, - As with the previous ability, due to being a C rank, this needs to be 3/4ths. they are distracted by his antics and focus on the coin, not because of some power but simply because it looks ridiculous and is amusingly dumb. Once close enough, Kenshin suddenly uses his other hand to punch the target he's focused on. The punch is treated as if it has 100% strength because it is used while their guard is down.

If the target's perception is higher than his intelligence, they notice the trick and can avoid it if their speed is higher than Kenshin's. - Same as above, please keep in mind that C and D ranks cannot utilize 100% of the user's stat, but I am allowing an exception to the punch within this technique due to lowering the opponents guard. Cost 25VP per use.

Technique Description: Kenshin puts his weight into a drop kick against a target. Has 50% of his strength stat for power. Any power-based boosts to the target's defense are nullified for 2 posts. - Can this be resisted? Remember, as a D rank this ability would not be as powerful as it would be if you were to make it at C or B rank and is considered a 'beginner' technique. Costs 10VP per use.

Reduced training touch to the single post thing.

-Clarified and weakened Null Blaster

-Clarified and Weakened Hypnosis Punch's stat checks as requested.

-Using one of the upgrade point thingies from level ups to make Anti-Super dropkick into a Crank, made it so higher rank techs can resist it.
