I BONE OF THE SWORD
Adjudicator Satharial

Satharial watched Sage mount a defense with amusement. Especially when it only served to bleed off a portion of her attack. Fortunate for him it was enough to shield the rest of his allies that lied beyond him; Karma remained unharmed. Even if he wasn't her chief focus Satharial would have preferred him convulsing, or a stain upon the ground she wasn't picky. As the wave of electricity that acted more like a surge of water than energy fell upon Sage, Satharial felt some grim satisfaction as he screamed in pain. As valiant an act it may have been he was unable to save himself from the brunt of the Adjudicators attack. Falling to the ground in an unconscious steaming pile that made him appear more like a hunk of meat than a human being. Mentions: @NeramoDJI Sinny The Fool phibglib
Unfortunately for Satharial she would not be allowed to enjoy the fruits of her work as a final gift from Sage hurtled through the air. She normally wouldn't pay it much mind as at a glance it was far from something that could threaten her, but this particular member of Night Raid had proven himself to be clever and resourceful. So with little fanfare the ball of plant matter met the edge of her Black Lightning Cloak and burned away into nothing, or rather it should have. Instead while it did begin to partially burn the ball burst upon contact with the electricity and spread an obscuring cloud wider than its size would indicate. There was some disappointment in the obscuring of her vision from Sage and Karma along with the chaff that was the other rebels, but it wasn't a situation that truly bothered her. If anything it was a development she was expecting from the Vallian boy. Satharial stood stock still her gaze locked onto the same point she had been observing before. For all intents and purposes she didn't feel human at this moment. She was too still, too unresponsive as if she was waiting for the very world to move her in her stead. For a brief moment a woman like Satharial normally wouldn't entertain. She thought to the almost muttered words she had heard Sage utter before being struck down, "...you're barely alive yourself.". He certainly was too observant for his own good. It seems she isn't the only one who gleamed insights in the heat of battle. Thats right... neither the stars in the night sky, nor the warm light of the sun could offer her any joy. Satharial knew better than anyone how twisted she was. Among humans she was a mutant unable to empathize or be empathized with. But even as a mutant this epoch created there is a happiness meant only for her.
It is with this in mind that she felt the presence of her next victim, as smoke began to obscure all around her. Satharial now stood in a relaxed position with her arms held across her chest. Then a mocking grin spread across her cheeks, as if privy to a joke at another parties expense. And in a way that was exactly the case. As the first kick shot out from the smoke with great speed Satharial tilted her body allowing the physical force to sail just by her. As her attacker was imbued with electricity the strikes did not end there. Becoming a flurry of kickes that aimed for her at incredible speeds. Unfortunately for her attacker Cassidy, Satharial was the last person you wanted to engage with any sort of electric based attacks. With her Teigu's Black Lightning Dominion Cassidy's lightning kicks were reduced to merely their physical power, and that was only thanks to Satharials resistance to electric attacks. Factoring her Teigu's ability to usurp power over electrical energy as a whole Cassidy would be better off just trying to kick her normally.
Thanks to her own enhanced body and her ability to sense the energy within her attackers Teigu Satharial simply stepped to the appropriate positions to avoid the attacks. Normally she would not be able to handle such a flurry with this much ease, but she was so uniquely specialized against this type of opponent that it couldn't have been simpler for her. When her would-be assassin followed up with her short swords thats when Satharial adopted her usual strategy. She looked down upon her opponent and made no movement of interest. Yet Cassidy would find each slash, or stab she made appeared ineffective as the blades never reached her body. Instead being stopped by an application of her Black Lightning Cloak condensing around her body. Just as she had done against Karmas far more effective attempt to kill her. The Adjudicator was quiet but kept her teasing grin. Only when the other rebel dropped from the rooftops and entered the range of her Black Lightning Cloak as he killed an Imperial Soldier did she finally speak up.
"Be prepared." Her words were simple and brief, a shift from how she had acted before in the presence of the other Night Raid members. A change that heralded further proof of the Profane Black Tempest's power. With swiftness and a calm grace Satharial raised a fist, and Black Lightning crackled within and around it. With a flex the electrical field around her solidified, once again becoming perceptible as a golden sheen that summoned sparks of Black Lightning in the air. Then it pushed out all around Satharial changing from a electric field to something more akin the the concussive force of being slammed with a wall. Trading the brunt of the Black Lightnings electrical power that would normally shock it instead battered against her foes like a solid object. Intent on knocking Cassidy and Arden back along with displacing the smoke. Making a perfect circle with Satharial in the center.
