Sokutei Takano

Sokutei Takano is a bonus character in Dissidia Calamitas Infinita, originating from Umbran Epidemic. At the onset of the Umbran Epidemic, her thoughts turned towards family instead of the powers of Animation arising inside her. Her mother is a well-respected researcher within the Moirai Genetic Facility, as her father as before their separation and his disappearance two years prior to the story. Upon arriving in the world of Dissidia, she is hesitant to use her untrained powers for the benefit of either side.

Appearance
Sokutei's default costume consists of a light green sleeveless shirt, a black vest that falls just below her chest, black jeans and black boots. She usually keeps her waist-length hair tied in a ponytail, as it tends to fly everywhere if unrestrained.

Battle
 Sokutei Takano  Animage - ????.

As an Animage, Sokutei specializes in creating and manipulating objects on the battlefield, including those of her opponents. Her main method of combat is to summon up to three Tao spheres to the field, which can be of Body, Speech, and Mind (Lus, Gsung, and Rje, respectively). Each time Sokutei summons a sphere at her location, she automatically performs a backward dodge. The cast time for sphere summoning is rather slow, and Sokutei can summon three spheres in about two seconds. If a fourth sphere is summoned, the oldest sphere disappears to make room for it. The majority of Sokutei's Bravery attacks involve summoning and repositioning these spheres, while her HP attacks depend on the number and type of spheres summoned. Sokutei thus enjoys a versatile move pool, but only when positioning of her spheres in relation to her enemy is optimal.

This method of gameplay excels in confined quarters where enemies are forced to move around her spheres, but lacks in wide open spaces or against enemies that can force Sokutei away from her spheres. In addition, while Sokutei is very flexible with HP attacks, intelligent enemies that keep track of the types of spheres on the field can predict what particular HP attacks Sokutei is trying to set up for. To compensate for this, Sokutei's other attacks use her scalpels at close range to rebuff melee opponents or syringe gun at long range to immobilize them for sphere setup. She can also alter the innate terrain of the battlefield with Brave to Brave attacks, but she lacks any Brave to HP attacks.
