sockets, causing tremendous trauma to that limb providing they are not standing and crippling it in the process. If the limb is already broken, then the trauma dealt is halved.

This requires a lot of focus and will have a constant tax on your mental reserves. | |

| Details: | If your opponent is on the ground, you may lift them into the air and bring them back
first down upon your knee, dealing powerful trauma to their torso. If they are suffering a crippled limb, then the force will weaken their back momentarily. If you manage to weaken their back three times in a row, then you will snap their spine and instantly kill them. | |
