Ria 1 Rayan*********************
Two fighting forms - Rayan has two different fighting styles that he employs. His primary style is using his trademark dual MEG (Mobile Energy Gun) plasma auto rifles; in his second form, Rayan replaces his guns for a sword that he crafted himself. The plasma guns have infinite range, meaning that they can shoot across the whole screen. A shot from one of these guns is a small, green energy shot. Individually, these cause very little damage; however, they can cause big combos for massive damage, and can juggle Rayan's opponent in the air. The sword, inversely, has much less range, but each hit causes significantly more damage. Rayan begins battle with either weapon active, depending on what button is pressed during the load screen.
Weapon swap - Rayan changes from using his guns to his sword, or vice-versa.
Half-moon blast [gun form] - (ground) Rayan aims his MEG plasma autorifles into the air, and fires them. He continues firing, gradually lowering his aim until he is shooting level to the ground, with one gun to each side. (Basically, starts off firing straight up, then drops to firing straight)
Gunslinger's Slide [gun form] - (ground) Rayan does a dashing slide across the ground while firing in front of him. At the end of his slide, Rayan swings his guns back, and so a few shots are fired backwards.
Doolittle's Raid [gun form] - (aerial) Rayan unleashes a flurry of blasts that cover the ground from his guns. This move is especially effective after executing a double jump, or at point blank.
Ballistic [gun form] - (ground or air) Rayan uses various projectiles, from plasma grenades that stick to what they hit, to sensor mines, to a case full of burned "Ria Spirits" (and other Ria/Fyia-based games) CDs.
Tiger Strike [sword form] - (ground) Rayan leaps forward and does a cross slash with his sword, held backwards, and his sheath.
Stinger Blade [sword form] - (aerial) Rayan kicks forward and holds his sword pointing down and forwards, like a bee's stinger. If Rayan lands a hit with the whole blade part of his sword, it sinks in, which Rayan can use to go straight into Severed Body Propel.
Severed Body Propel [sword form] - (grab) Rayan stabs his sword through his opponent's middle. He then rushes forward and does a backflip kick off of him/her that levels his opponent, pulling his sword out as he knocks his foe away.
Backspin [sword form] - (ground) Rayan executes a back flip slash, knocking his opponent upwards.
*********************************
~Overdrive attack~
Plasma Barrage [gun form] - (ground) Rayan yells out, "Get ready!" and holds his plasma guns in front of him. He then unleashes a storm of plasma shots, continuing his fire for several seconds. Rayan can aim his guns depending on the control pad direction(s) pressed. After five seconds of firing, Rayan's guns overheat; Rayan shakes his hands impulsively from the high temperature, and takes a full second or two for his guns to cool. (Rayan is immobile during this time) This attack has the potential to land a 40+ beat combo.
Dual Railbeams [gun form] - (ground) Rayan crosses his guns in front of him. A low humming noise is emitted, which gradually intensifies as the guns charge. While this occurs, a bright blue glow builds up on the tips of the guns. After about three seconds of charging, twin bright blue beams that go across the screen and hold for a few seconds, causing massive damage. The beams then slowly dissipate until they disappear completely.
***********************************
~Instant Kill~
Stiger Emblem [sword form] - Rayan slashes vertically forward with his sword. If the initial move hits, Rayan jaggedly slashes his initials "RS", with the "S" looking like a reversed and tilted "Z". Afterwards, Rayan executes a backspin move, then pulls out one of his plasma guns with his non-sword hand and fires an already charged railbeam for the finisher.
***********************************
~EX Skills~
Solar Eclipse [gun form] - (ground to air or air) Replaces "Half-moon blast". Rayan does a front flip if on the ground, or inverts his body in the air if already airborne. He fires in a half-moon shape, firing both below and in front of his original position. Rayan continues firing until he lands, with one gun to each side.
Drop Slash [sword form] - (ground) Replaces "Gunslinger's Slide". Rayan drops to the ground and executes a swift, low slash move. He can then either slash up diagonally, or dash forward with another horizontal slash, depending on the button pressed.
Ground Zero [gun form] - (aerial) Replaces "Doolittle's Raid". Rayan aims his guns straight down, charged a moment, then fires a weaker, shorter railbeam blast. The explosion has a large blast radius, and causes shrapnel to erupt from the ground, which can hit the opponent across the screen.
Weapons Arsenal [gun form] - (ground or air) Replaces "Ballistic" move. Rayan pulls out a random gadget from his person. The possibilities range from mini rocket launchers, water pressure tank and wand, and a laptop gun, to shaving cream cans and plushie copies of one of the other Ria characters, along with assorted other items.
Tiger Fury [sword form] - (ground) Replaces "Tiger Strike". Rayan does a Tiger Strike, then goes into a double Backspin. When he lands, Rayan can then immediately use a Hornet Thrust attack.
Hornet Thrust [sword form] - (ground or air) Replaces "Stinger Blade". Rayan stabs straight forward, with energy shooting out of the tip, so that the range of the move is increased to that of a spear. If the whole blade part of his sword sinks in, Rayan can go straight into a Severed Body Propel.
Hornet Swarm [sword form to gun] - (ground) Rayan does multiple Hornet Thrust stabs at his opponent. He then jumps forward, replaces his sword for his guns, and fires a short, accurate burst of fire to level his target. Rayan is now in his gun form.
Hornet Swarm [gun form to sword] - (ground) Rayan leaps forward and unleashes a hail of plasma fire. When he lands, Rayan swaps his guns for his sword, and stabs for his opponent's gut to disembowel him. After Rayan's sword connects, his enemy falls flat on the ground. Rayan is now in his sword form.
Double Backspin [sword form] - (ground to air) Rayan executes two back flip slashes rapidly in the air, knocking his opponent upwards and a little forward. Unlike the single Backspin slash, where Rayan lands immediately after attacking, this move finishes while Rayan is still in midair, so he is able to follow up with other air moves.
Blazing Hellfire (overdrive)- Rayan pulls out a small remote control and presses a button. A cursor then appears on the screen; using the directional buttons, the cursor can then be used to lock down on Rayan's opponent. If Rayan can get a lock on his target in two seconds, then his airship appears at the top of the screen (in the background). It then unleashes a score of Inferno Class missiles which home in on Rayan's opponent, or on the spot the targeting reticule was when time expired. The explosions caused by these missiles are quite large, which is where they got their name.
(Kept moves: Weapon Swap, Severed Body Propel, Backspin, overdrive and instant kill moves)
