Type
Each of the following traits determines the range, and targets of a technique. All techniques require at least one [Type] trait, while some rare techniques may have several. If a technique has multiple types and/or subtypes - the user must choose only [1] type (or subtype) to use, each time the technique is activated.

Ranged: The technique affects the target(s) at a distance, usually with a projectile of some kind. Most techniques of this type inflict some kind of injury, or debilitating effect, and are assumed to have an [Instant] duration (unless otherwise specified).
Melee: The technique is used in close-quarters (melee) range of the target. Most such techniques have the [Weapon] or [Unarmed] trait. [Self]; is a sub-type of [Melee] technique. Most techniques of this type inflict some kind of injury, or affect the user in some way, and are assumed to have an [Instant] duration (unless otherwise specified).
- Self: This technique only affects the user, and usually has a duration of some kind, although techniques of this type with an [Instant] duration are not unheard of.
Area: These techniques affect [1] or more Target(s) within an area of effect. All techniques of this type have at least [1] of the following sub-types. All [Area] techniques must specify a radius of effect, and are assumed to be [Indiscriminate]; and a duration of [Instant]; (unless otherwise specified)
- Blast: This technique creates a ranged area of effect, and is the ranged counterpart to [Burst]. These techniques may optionally have the [Allies]; [Enemies]; or [Selective] traits.
- Burst: This technique creates a 360 degree area of effect around the user. If this technique has the [Weapon] and/or [Unarmed] trait, the radius of this effect is equal to the users reach with the weapon/strike. Otherwise, the burst must specify a radius as normal for all other [Area] techniques. These techniques may optionally have the [Allies]; [Enemies]; or [Selective] traits.
- Line: These techniques affect all targets within a line which emanates from the user, and extends outward to a fixed range. These techniques are always [Indiscriminate].
- Cone: These techniques affect all targets within a cone which emanates from the user, and extends outward to a fixed range. The width of such techniques at their widest point is equal to their length. These techniques are always [Indiscriminate].
- Zone: The technique creates a lasting area of effect. Most techniques of this type are [Hazards], that inflict injury and/or debilitating effects within the zone, while other techniques create beneficial effects within their radius. [Zone] techniques never have a duration of [Instant].
- Aura: These techniques are similar to [Burst] except they have a prolonged duration. Techniques of this type are equally split between those that inflict injury or status effects to enemy targets, and those that provide long-lasting beneficial effects to the user and their allies. The vast majority of [Aura] techniques have a very noticeable [Visual] manifestation. These techniques never have a duration of [Instant].

Duration
All techniques possess at least [1] of the following traits. Techniques that do not specify a duration are assumed to have a duration of [Instant], as this is the default duration for all techniques.

Instant: The technique lasts but a moment, just long enough for the effect to be completed and reach its target(s). You do not need to write this trait on your technique.
Sustain: The technique can be sustained over multiple posts by paying its cost each post. This requires effort and concentration on the part of the user, and as such can be Disrupted by techniques and abilities that cause the user to lose concentration. [Ranged] techniques that are sustained are often energy-based "beam" attacks, or ranged bombardments.
Finite: The technique has a finite duration measured in X posts, specified in its description. If the technique can be dismissed, it will also have the [Dismiss] trait. Otherwise, the technique lasts for its full duration unless otherwise Disrupted.
Stance (Self-only): All stances have a type of [Self], and allow the user to remain within the stance for an indefinite duration. As all Stances have the same type, you do not need to list the type trait for these techniques. Stances are easily Disrupted by any technique or ability that affects the user's concentration, or which hampers their mobility (eg. stunned; paralyzed; prone; rooted; etc). You can only enter [1] Stance per post, and can only benefit from [1] Stance at a time. Characters with a Martial Arts [Skill] of SS-Rank+ may enter, and benefit from [2] Stances simultaneously.

Target

All techniques possess at least [1] of the following traits. [Ranged] and [Melee] techniques default to [Single] target, while [Area] techniques default to [Indiscriminate].

Single: Most basic [Ranged] and [Melee] techniques only affect a single target, or attempt to disrupt a single technique. If your technique only affects a single target, you do not need to list this trait on your technique.
Indiscriminate: [Area] techniques are assumed to target all creatures within their radius, unless otherwise specified. These techniques will affect the user, as well as all allies and/or enemies within the radius of effect indiscriminately. If your area technique is indiscriminate, you do not need to list this trait on your technique.
Selective:
Allies:
Enemies:

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Plasma}

The Technique or Ability conjures, creates, or manipulates plasma (a highly charged state of matter). Most techniques and abilities that fall under this category are more accurately defined by their sub-type.

Plasma-based powers are all capable of inflicting significant Burns to an opponent on contact (whether that be thermal, electrical, or some other form).

Only techniques that create/manipulate an exotic form of plasma have the [Plasma] trait. All other plasma-based techniques instead gain one of the following traits instead.

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Fire}

The Power or Ability creates/manipulates fire. Fire gives off low levels of [Light] and is a significant conductor of [Heat]. Depending on the power in question, fire-based powers may [Ignite] or may [Burn] the target with thermal radiation. While many forms of plasma can burn the target, fire-based powers almost universally inflict the most severe burns for their rank.

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Electric}

The power or ability creates/manipulates electricity. Electricity gives of short, but intense flashes of [Light], and (depending on the effect) may be accompanied by a [Sonic] boom. Electricity can cause electrical [Shock], [Numbness], [Paralysis], or may [Burn] the target with electrical radiation. The most powerful electric attacks may [Ignite] flammable materials like wood, or cloth but this is a rare ability.

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Thermal}

The power or ability manipulates [Heat] and/or [Cold]. It is rare for a power or ability to have the [Thermal] trait (and be capable of inflicting both states). Most thermal powers are instead have either the [Heat] or [Cold] trait instead, but rarely both.

Both forms of thermal radiation can [Burn] a target at significant temperatures, with [Heat] also having the ability to [Dehydrate], [Weaken], and inflict [Hyperthermia], create [Illusion] based mirages, and other visual disturbances

[Cold] on the other hand, can induce [Paralysis], painful [Numbness], inflict [Hypothermia], or even [Freeze] a target solid.

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Solar}

The power or ability to create/manipulate solar energy. Solar energy is the most powerful form of plasma a power or technique can manipulate. Powers that create or manipulate solar energy have the properties of both [Fire] and [Radiation] simultaneously, making them some of the most dangerous, and lethal powers that exist. Solar radiation generates intense [Light], [Heat], and [Radiation]. It almost universally inflicts significant thermal and radiation [Burn] on the target, and is often-times just as lethal to it's user as to their opponents.

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Other}

Obscure and exotic forms of plasma typically default to the [plasma] trait. The unique properties of exotic forms of plasma vary from type to type, but generally include one (or more) features in common with other forms of plasma on this list.
