Speaking of, the blog on Piyon's ability is up. Now:

Name:

Nen Type: Conjuration, Emission?, Manipulation

Description: An ability most suited to a Manipulator. It starts by conjuring a brass knuckle in each hand. Except for the user, anything that comes in contact with the brass knuckles will have its speed reduced by a certain percentage which depends on the power of the blow. The physical strength of the user is a determining factor in the effectiveness of the ability, but so is the area that is targeted, as areas with less aura around them will take more damage. The greater the target and the more powerful the punch, the more aura will be consumed.

The ability is more complex than it looks, since it does not only slow the movement of the target, but also their mind.

Limitations:

1) As mentioned before, the ability requires contact with the brass knuckles to be effective; this also means that the ability will be cancelled as soon as the weapon disappears.

2) The user cannot cancel this ability unless he/she makes BOTH knuckles disappear.

3) Otherwise, the effect wears off after 1 minute.

4) The ability is not effective against pure energy or pure aura, making it useless against transmuters or emitters; however, if a Nen user is slowed down, so will his/her puppets, whether they are made out of aura or not.

This ability also has a variation:

Name:

Nen Type: Conjuration, Emission, Manipulation

Description: Instead of punching the target, the user emits an arc of aura from his/her first. The speed of the attack depends on user's skills, its range and width on how much aura is employed. Any target that comes in contact with the beam - be it made out of aura, energy or matter - will have its speed halved for 5 seconds.

Limitations: None.
