-Changes to Status Effect after learning how it actually works Dx
-Changes to Whisper of a Beautiful Death; gave a way to escape it and a way to 'robcount'/increase the countdown
ID: Graceful Dahlia
Quality: Supreme
A scythe that represents the aspects of a flower. The green shaft of the scythe uniquely shaped so that it curves back like a stem. The pink blade represents the petals and is nearly as long as the handle; a gold cross connects it with the stem. Though scythes are usually heavy weapons that should be wielded with two hands to make full use of its unwieldy power, Marluxia’s Graceful Dahlia has a handgrip and can be used by him with only one hand as if it were as light as a baton without losing any of the power. He can summon and uncommon Graceful Dahlia from but a single rose petal and in certain cases, more than one at a time.
Status Effect: Death; when this Status Effect is active, a target already afflicted with Doom will have their Countdown reduced by 3 upon being struck by this weapon. Any other target will enter a state where they are highly susceptible to being inflicted with Doom for three turns; meaning, even a passing glance between eyes will induce it (See ‘Whispers of a Beautiful Death’).
Whispers of a Beautiful Death – Countdown to the Sweet Sorrow of Parting
Taking upon the symbol of Death that is the scythe, Marluxia sentences an enemy to death. To inflict this ability's deadly curse upon his target Marluxia must be able to maintain full eye contact with them for entire single turn. Without warning, upon the beginning of his second turn since the eye contact began, the opponent will experience a brief waking dream in which the Graceful Assassin is behind him/her and whispers sweet words of premonition, predicting their imminent death. The exact words are not remembered when coming to from the brief dream and finding Marluxia where he was before (the waking dream might’ve seem to have taken longer for the enemy, but it was but the briefest of moments). The target of this ability will now be afflicted by the status effect Doom as an ethereal Nobody Emblem forms around them and then disperses.
When Doom begins the character affected will have a countdown of 10 placed upon them, a prediction of their end. Every turn, the countdown goes down by 1. There is no conceivable way of removing this curse except by getting clear of Marluxia by at least several hundred leagues (i.e. fleeing the battlefield) or by locking eyes with Marluxia for one full turn (The same manner with which he inflicted Doom).Whenever Marluxia’s Graceful Dahlia strikes a target, the countdown goes down by 2 (Note, being hit by Crescent Wave, when Graceful Dahlia’s Status Effect is activated or the scythes of Spectre has a similar effect; see their respective sections). If an opponent manages to strike Marluxia himself with his own Graceful Dahlia, it won’t do any damage but the Counter will actually go up by 2 to give an enemy more time. If the counter reaches 0, then the target will instantly be brought upon the very verge of death, though not actually dying; just at the tip of death from which Marluxia could push them over. Thus, they will be rendered unconsciousness immediately and be drained of all physical, magical and mental energy (Death will not be dealt without the other player's permission, however). As a consequence of using Doom upon a target, however, Marluxia's Graceful Dahlia will no longer deal any damage or cause harm to the Doom victim when it strikes, it will only decrease their invisible counter by 2.
Strength: Strong
Uses: Marluxia can only use it and have it afflicting one enemy at a time.
