A strange, often lethal Pressure Point attack that halts all automatic systems within the victim's body.

A character tosses a sharp-ended disc that initially appears to miss the target... before bouncing a few times from random appliances and returning more powerful than ever, hitting multiple times.

Often described as dolorous, this attack consists of grabbing the opponent by the arm and twisting it forcefully enough to send the opponent spinning through the air.

The caster conjures a thick, purple fog around the targeted area. Anyone who is standing in the vicinity of the fog will experience severe hallucinations. For some reason, most victims hallucinates about an evil, demonic looking mask that paralyzes them with terror, if not outright inflicting mental trauma. The attack can be rendered ineffective with a rebreather and eye protection.

The ground under the target turns black and tainted as a vortex of thousands of evil spirits emerges out of it, lifting the victim high into the air while simultaneously attacking. When the victim reaches the top of the vortex, a massive bull-like demon with glowing eyes tramples him/her, sending him/her crashing hard into the ground.

Bull demon = Mahisha, because asura and I couldn't really use the video game character now could I? Phew, that was a HARD one. Darn Touhou and its vague attack names.

The caster draws several clock shaped patterns on a surface and places a part of the target's body in the middle of it. By channeling mana into the surface, a time portal will open into the target's past. The amount of time and interaction allowed inside the portal is determined by the significance body part used; A single strand of hair might only allow the caster to simply observe for ten second, while a limb generally allows the caster to manifest physical body for days. The clock patterns determines what time the portal links to. As with other time-related magic, this spell is banned by the High Order of Mages for its highly disruptive, world-changing potential.

A counter move. Upon being struck, the caster glows brightly and unleashes a pulse of fierce solar wind to damage enemies and knock them back.

The target is engulfed by black energy that transports them to the Lower Realms where they are attacked by devils and daemons for 3 hours before they are expelled and and sent back before you exhausted to await the killing blow or an interrogation. Inexplicably people who survive this most foul technique seem to become quite good at dancing. This has been conjectured to be because of all the dodging they would have had to have done to survive.

A powerful danmaku attack which involves throwing a silver Sphere of Destruction at the target. Upon impact, the sphere turns emerald green as it expands, and then it slowly shrinks all of the while releasing multiple verdant and white-hot fragments of varying sizes and speeds all around (the bigger the bullet the slower it moves, and vice-versa), until it disappears.

The caster creates a burst of flowing water in front of himself, then fires a beam of light from his hands at it. The water turns the light into a glorious rainbow beam which engulfs the target.

A barrage of straight lefts and rights, each of them carrying a power of Hellfire behind them, blazing the face of a victim with this inhuman assault. Ends with an upper launching an enemy skyhigh. The attacker then jumps up in the air, brings down his victim with an axe kick(also blazing) and finishes by stomping the poor sap right into the ground via his heel.

The attacker (always a girl) blows a kiss to the target, sending out a wave of pink hearts from her lips that engulfs the opponent. For several minutes after getting hit, the target is paralyzed in pure bliss and cannot act.

The attacker summons a mini-black hole that sucks his opponent with an incredible power. Since it's too small to suck him whole however it only traps one of his limbs. The attacker is free to close the hole at his leisure, severing the limb in question.

Named after the circumstances from which it arose, this attacks focuses all of the user's available energy into a single combo. The exact attacks in the combo vary, but the final attack is always powerful ground-aimed heel slam into the opponent's head. Also known for it's tendency to incite nuclear war when used illegally in tournaments.

The user "shatters" part of his lifeforce to create a rain of razor-sharp ethereal projectiles. The incorporeal nature of this attack makes it very effective against ghosts and other spirits walking the boundary between the world of the living and the world of the dead. Though the name is slightly exaggerated, this attack does steal some years of its user's life to be cast.

The user encase themselves in a crystal. The roughness, hardness, and duration of the crystal depends on the emotional state of the caster. In near-meditative state, the crystal becomes harder than steel and smooth as it was just cut and polished. Conversely, in hysterical state the crystal becomes extremely jagged and very brittle, enough for a light punch to completely shatter it. Despite that, a sufficiently distressed user can create a formation so unstable it immediately detonates, sending sharpened crystal fragments to every direction. This makes it not only useful as a defensive technique, but also as a desperation move.

A combination of Smite Evil with Rapid Fire Finger Pokes of Doom. Great for getting decent damage past Damage Reduction.

The attacker uses his giant weaponized scissors to get a hold of his opponent's neck before closing the grip of those metaphorical jaws. Kills low HP fighters on the spot and deals some severe damage to ones in a better shape.
