Nacht

Description
night

Nacht is a swordie based off Roy with burst movement.

uspecial: Crescent slash that has a very strong early hit but goes into pratfall.

fspecial: Dash forward. Endlag can be cancelled by other specials.

nspecial: Pulse jump upwards. Endlag can be cancelled by aerials. Hold left or right during startup to go that direction with your current momentum.

dspecial: Falling slash attack that shoots a projectile. Special button can be held down for more distance, and gets double jump back on sword hit.

All specials (except uspecial) have a cooldown that begins when you land. Specials instantly recharge upon landing a hit or walljumping.

Characteristics:
- Lightweight (Ori weight)
- Disjoints, but close range sweetspots
- Below average base movement stats

Misc tips:
- dash attack can be cancelled by aerials and jump (on hit)
- single hit jab that can be cancelled into tilts, including on hit

Credits:
Avali (Triage) mod and Starbound for design inspirations

Cool unique character I feel like it should've gone in to Rivals 2 because i think it will be cool to have such a unique character in the game but you can make Nacht have better animations

Like Cedar said he needs some more kill power. I also think maybe his neutral special could be an actual attack instead of just a third jump? One specific improvement that could be great across the board is making him lean into attacks more. I like how big the sword is but the range is not great, and part of that could be helped if he lunged more into attacks like fair, fstrong, and maybe even jab.
