1. Gonad's strength isn't really quantifiable. He's as strong as an unarmed man needs to be to fight on even ground with similarly skilled armed and armored opponents. Generally though, his blows can kill normal humans if delivered to the head and can put superhumans out of commission. He is stronger than any character that uses a weapon, as a point of fairness given his very low durability and combat range. Same case with speed. That doesn't mean he's too fast to hit or too strong to beat. It just means that he is a power oriented martial artist capable of fighting with knights and Vikings and shit. [/quote]

Not the best example. Namely as there's numerous superheroes (which is what I'm assuming you mean by super, if not, please explain) in the comic book world so making a general statement like that isn't a very good basis for me. This is one way to read that phrase: So he could literally KO a super like THOR or the HULk with one punch? Sadly, I know for a fact Thor would laugh at Trixi and the Hulk she would only piss off at her current level...   

[quote=@Doc Doctor]2. Gonad's build is unusually dense and broad as well as tall, and his body\arm length proportions are scaled up from the reach of MMA fighter Jon Jones, so he has excellent reach for his height. Still far less than anybody with a sword, which is one of his biggest weaknesses.[/quote]

Alright. Helpful, thank you. 

[quote=@Doc Doctor]3. He did not step forwards, it was not necessary. I made no mention of him doing that, and he did exactly as I said he did. Naturally he went through the motions required to launch a back kick, but I don't waste time going on about all of the confusing body mechanics. All those silly descriptions of pivots and multiple joints and diagonal clockwises are entirely moot imo. A straight punch is a straight punch, a roundhouse is a roundhouse, a spinning back kick is a spinning back kick. If I plan to do some wacky stiff-body kick that involves unlikely physics, I'll make a mention of it. Otherwise, it is just what the tin says. Trixi is however close she moved to Gonad in the first place, I never had him move after he stopped to prepare the punch. I'd assume they are pretty close together, and that's as much an answer as you can expect to get from me. [/quote] 

Noted for the future. However, some spinning back kicks hook, fully extend and aim at the side of the torso, etc. That's how some arts evolve and change, because a master took what was originally someone else's style then adapted it to their own. Which means one style's spinning back kick might not be the same as another. 

[quote=@Doc Doctor]I write like I'm telling a story, and as you have likely guessed I do not deal in specifics. Feel free to interpret things how you want, but when I describe something, I mean exactly what I describe. If you say she is close enough to kick Gonad in the back of the knee, then I'll take your word for it. Doesn't mean it will work, but I'll assume your character has been the physical requirements to attempt such a thing. The following image neatly sums up my roleplay style.

Very well, but if our pictures differs too much than we're going to have to have a third party sort the mess. Mainly as I won't risk being called a cheater because I'm still learning and my picture might be completely different than yours. It's why I use the OoC to clear up details I don't understand or see. As for where Trixi is, I'll describe her position in my post each time so at least I have a reference IC to work off of.  

[quote]He strode quickly towards Trixi, more a powerwalk than anything. His arms would remain loose at his sides, but were he to get within the woman's reach he'd then cock back his left fist as if he were going to slug her right in the gobhole. It could scarcely be more straightforward, something that was easily avoided and easily countered? Perhaps, but of all people Gonad knew the true power of simplicity.[/quote]

When did he ever stop? No mention he stopped in this segment when he started to power walk hun, which is why I felt I had to ask and determine if he had moved forward while still walking.   

[quote=@Doc Doctor]Whether or not she is moving, Gonad has great aim and is intending to give her the goods based upon wherever the heck she is. And like I described, Gonad is expecting Trixi to expect a counter attack, hence the fake backfist. There is something to be said for when one anticipates and plans for a move only to encounter something entirely different. When someone throws a surprise attack at you, you don't see it coming in slow motion. At any rate, if things are still confusing, here is a little video with a kick similar to Gonad's. Notice how flexible and normal the stance is and how the kick still has obvious power even with Uriah not going through the full motions.

Alright, though also keep in mind those batons can break, even shatter bone in the right hands. Demons aren't easy to damage in the end or play fair, though she wasn't expecting the kick to the middle drift. It doesn't mean she can't react to avoid it either at last second.
