Zeke           They/Them

Overexaggerated Turns

“Bends are exaggerated; instead of neat right angles, they’re fluid snakelike turns.”

• “Every sharp pivot overextends.”

• Instead of ↲, it's ⤶

• Maybe unable to turn on the spot; has to take steps in order to face a different direction.

Speed Boost

Stores kinetic energy as long as the character moves in a straight line (Based on time and not by distance). When they finally veer off-course, all the stored energy gets dumped at once, resulting in an unpredictable burst of speed.

• “The energy is stored as long as the movement is voluntarily straight.”

Unwanted Flourish

“Every time the character performs a complex movement* or action, they automatically follow it up with an uncontrollable flourish.”

• “After complex maneuvers, their momentum doesn’t stop cleanly” and they continue the spin for a moment.

Autopilot Loop

“Body ‘records’ movement patterns and then glitches into looping them faster than intended.”

• Not a time-loop sort of thing; their position doesn’t change, but they do the same movement/motion again at double speed.

• *”A ‘motion’ is defined by a start and stop of active intent.” Reflexes don’t count.

Too Much Momentum!

Has a hard time stopping/knowing when to stop. 

• Often overshoots movements and stops far past where they should.

• Imagine they’re in a race, and they’ve already passed the finish line, but they’re only able to stop a few meters away.

Speed Blindness

“Their perception of ‘how fast they should be going’ overrules their actual needs.”

• “They lurch between fast and slow while desperately trying to stay on-beat.”

• “They might sprint full-speed one moment, then jolt into a crawl for the next.”

Disorientation

“Instincts for up and down are reversed.”

• Probably only applies in water or other areas with “ambiguous orientation”; they have a Black Marlin’s tail and sail, but none of a fish’s awareness that helps them keep balanced.

Stiffness

Translates to claustrophobia and/or inflexibility. 

• (Maybe their wings don’t stretch all the way, or their limbs can’t bend properly sometimes.)

Inertia

Translates to an inability to turn sharply when in motion.

Hesitation

“Stutters or double-steps when moving in certain directions, like they’re unsure of their own angle”.

• Not indecision – “misguided calibration”.

Speed Inconsistancy

Level difficulty → Body performance.

• “They can’t trust their own consistency” “Sometimes they’re too fast, too slow, or perfectly normal.”

Rotation Lock

Only able to turn clockwise or counterclockwise; unable to make quick turns.

Input Lag

???

Symmetrical Reflex

??? {Implies that anytime they try to do one thing, they must do its opposite simultaneously/soon after}

Angular Lock
