Arecacura

Description
A strict martial arts teacher and charismatic diplomat from Defiance, an oasis far west of the Rock Wall. They've become one with the sway of the palms, able to grow their limbs as a tree. Though their standards are high, they're willing to train others for as long as mastery takes.

Arecacura ("Ah-reh-KAH-koo-rah", they/them) is a strange zoner focused all around Fast Vertical, Long Horizontal. They're so skewed that even their jump arc and airdodge speeds are affected!

NSPECIAL: Date & Time. Pressing it once makes your next attack pull inwards! Pressing it twice makes the pull much stronger...if you time the hit on beat.

FSPECIAL: Hibiscus Dance. Flings a whirlwind out further the more you press it. Careful, though, you're left open to close attacks!

USPECIAL: Plantstalk. Plants your leg down on the ground no matter your height.

DSPECIAL: Kingfisher. Dives to the ground, rolls, and springs up! Very flexible and good for kills.

Their portrait was done by the very lovely Starcutter: https://bsky.app/profile/starcutter.bsky.social
Their theme was done by the wonderful Tangle Nathair: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:t67bc6mo374p7gcil4ja2out

this is my favorite character now! killer moveset
*boing, boing...*
How funny, Schmampus! The same happened to me as well, though I was unfortunately not able to win in my instance. Maybe I may have if the characters I played against that player weren't mysteriously missing!
Oh well. It is what it is.

Arecacura was so cool that the player that ducked me for a year finally rematched me again and fought me with that character! They lost and seem to be back to ducking though... :(

As a 5 ft, 2 in, and 3 qtr who talks with 6,4 people. This feels way too accurate. 10/10
