Split Kick: Using a Standard Action, you may do a single Unarmed Attack, a Split Kick, which threatens 2 adjacent opponents. The targeted subjects pin their respective Defensive Actions against the attack’s singular result.
Leg Artist: While you are grappled, pinned, or stuck, you are still able to Attack, Guard, and Deflect with your legs, so long as they’re not the body part being restrained.
Techniques
Name: Shed Base: Substitute Technique Type: Combat Performance: Defensive Action Delivery: Self Effect Type: Instant
Mockma's Substitute, called Shed, indeed works as the name implies. As something makes contact with his body, he immediately ejects out of a layer of loose skin, from the back end.
Combat Behavior
Mockma saves every single bit of his energy to perform Shed, unless absolutely forced to expend it somewhere else. While the use of his signature Technique is limited by the amount of energy he has, his foes, being unaware as to exactly how many more times he is able to perform it, might change their combat strategy before he runs out of uses.
