Skills
Hengen Musou Skills:
 * Tiger Brea - Fohl's chi expands, and he points his arms and fists at his opponent. Every time Fohl's fist comes into contact with his opponent, Chi pierces through their body. The released energy is in the shape of a tiger. It's also attacking pressure points. It seems to combine skills to put ignoring defense as its main focus. While it may ignore defense, it can't scale off of it. And his power flows all the way through and out of his opponent's body, forcing their own chi out. It's an energy attack, like those in games, that would decrease the opponent's energy gauge. The lights leave his opponent's body return to his hand,.recycling the energy.
