Julian Adbelasch
Character Type: Vanguard
Origin: Magical Space Adventures

Background[]

Julian Adbelasch is a high-ranking member of the Galactic Consortium’s Enforcers within the universe of Magical Space Adventures. He holds the rank of Sector 9 Sergeant, giving him leadership and responsibility over all of the Consortium’s law enforcement powers with respect to “sector nine” - the planet Kiara. He reports directly to First Minister Morgan, leader of the Enforcers as a whole, and above her to Chancellor Eynas Marduk of the Galactic Consortium itself. In times of emergency he also reports to the Delta Force, the elite band of Enforcers led by First Minister Morgan directly.

As a fraal of Pyrrhus, he is inherently adept at psionics, with particular focus in the schools of metacreativity and telepathy, and while prefers avoiding direct engagements altogether, is known for his “howling chains”, a Shaper manifestation that spawns up to hundreds of rattling, screaming bladed chains that can lock down and subdue entire hordes at a time.

To the Enforcers of Sector 9 whom he commands, he is more of a presence than a person; his leadership simply demands obedience and perfection. While he already holds an air of mystique for being the only Fraal in Sector 9, his skill and succinctness in command, tranquility under pressure, and stellar success rate on missions have elevated him to myth-like status among all the lower-level Enforcers. Those who know him closely are few, and they know Julian as a man of few words, one who never takes a break from training or bettering himself, even in times of leisure studying military history and xenopsychology, or performing psionic meditations.

He has taken a particularly vested interest in the apprehension and capture of a rogue criminal band called the Space Monkeys, wanted for dozens of counts of thievery, bribery, arson, and murder, among a host of others.

Overview[]


Special[]

Move Type Input Priority Effect
The Howling EX-Skill Triangle-button Special
Julian summons a massive amount of chains around him that unleash an unholy wailing. All enemies and allies on the field are instantly interrupted, stunned for two seconds, and drop to the ground in pain. Does not deal damage. Additionally, the chains around him destroy any projectiles within their vicinity. Has a 2s startup time that can be interrupted.

Bravery[]

Move Type Input Priority Effect
Rhapsody in Steel Ground Circle-button+Circle-button+Circle-button Melee Potent
Whips a row of bladed chains upward with a wail. "Wave" style hitbox, long distance and very good verticality. Can conjure up to three waves sequentially with additional attack input. Opponent cannot recover during combo.
Trepidation Ground ↑+Circle-button Melee Potent Stagger
Julian dashes forward, spinning bladed chains around himself. Hits several times before knockback.
Rictus Ground ↓+Circle-button N/A Block Potent / BRV Recovery
Conjures a very fast defensive swirl of howling chains in front of himself. If it blocks a melee attack, the attacker is staggered for a second. If it blocks a ranged attack, Julian gains a small amount of BRV based on how much damage the projectile would have done.
Mercy's Messenger Ground Dash Circle-button Melee Potent
Conjure a ring of screaming chains and fire it forward. Staggers on hit, can continue through any targets hit.
Trail of Guilt Aerial Circle-button Melee Potent Stagger
Swipes quickly forward with his hand at close range, sequentially conjuring small psionic bursts in a straight line beyond him three times, each one further out and knocking the target back. If a target is caught in one of the more proximal bursts, it is knocked back into each sequential burst. Opponent cannot recover during combo.
Howling Stigma Aerial ↑+Circle-button Melee Potent
Fires a myriad of bladed chains forward a good distance. On hit, Julian pulls the target towards himself and psychokinetically forces them straight down.
The Screaming Eye Aerial ↓+Circle-button Ranged Potent Projectile Attraction
Creates a mass of swirling, howling chains at his location. Remains on the field for some time. Enemy projectiles that fly near it are attracted to it, regardless of their initial target. If an enemy hits it, they are dealt minor Bravery damage and briefly dazed for a couple hits.
Wicked Censure Dash R+Circle-button Ranged Potent
Conjure a mass of chains at the enemy’s location that briefly stagger with several hits of bravery damage before launching them away.

HP[]

Move Obtained Input Priority Effect
Peripetia Lv.1 Square-button Melee Mighty
Conjures bladed chains to launch upward from the ground vertically from far away, leading in closer. A reverse-wave HP attack that starts from far away and comes in to Julian. Long-range, very good vertical coverage, and fast.
Chiaroscuro Lv.2 Square-button Melee Mighty
An extremely quick vertical swipe of a brilliant white scythe-chain, followed by a horizontal slash from a black scythe-chain. Very close range, very fast startup.
Anagnorisis Lv.5 Square-button Melee Mighty
Manifests chains at the enemy’s position. On hit, Julian warps there, grabbing the victim’s head and psionically crushing it for many hits of BRV damage before the final HP hit. The psionic crushing has a small radial AoE component around the victim that can trap others who get in too close.
Amaranth Lv.10 Square-button Melee Mighty Shield Potent
Julian becomes embroiled in a roiling mass of howling scythe-chains that swirl around him, while he slowly floats forward for several seconds. Snares any enemies he comes into physical contact with, stunning them for several hits of damage before the HP hit and huge launchback. Can control his movement with the analog stick. Impervious to most projectile BRV attacks during this.
