Walter White ROA, by HelloMyNameIsAAA

-------------------------------------------
(What is this ?)

The Rivals of Aether conversion of the chemist turned into a drug lord from Breaking Bad. It have most of the mechanics from the char, simplified and made more powerful for MUGEN.

The mechanics for this character are quite unusual so I will describe the Specials and the Final Smash.
-------------------------------------------
(Movelist)

(Specials)

down, a: Meth Lab

Spawn a Meth Lab, allowing him to use his talent to make various chemical products by pressing down,a while being near it.
You can spawn a meth lab while being away from it. The previous one simply disappears.
Also disappears if it goes offscreen.

(We Need To Cook)

back,x: Fulminated Mercury (Basic Projectile with big damage and knockback. Nothing Special Otherwise.)
back,y: Liquid Nitrogen (Freeze the opponent with very long hitstun.)
back,z: Phosphine (Spawn a gas cloud that propels the enemy upwards.)
back,b: Lily of the Valley (Deals poison damage over time.)
back,c: Hydrofluric Acid (Spawn an acid puddle that deal contact damage against grounded opponent. Will disapper on its own.)
fwd,x: Superheated Water (Spawn an hot water puddle that explode while in contact with an opponent.)
fwd,y: Relaxant (Drink it to have higher jump and being floatier. Also, have infinite air dodges during it.)
fwd,z: Grain Alcohol (Drink it to have both an attack bonus on physical and normal moves and a defense bonus.)
fwd,b: Painkiller (Drink it to have a bigger defense bonus and be immune to grabs.)
fwd,c: Coffee (Drink it to have a bigger damage bonus on physical and normal moves, and having shorter startup on the Strong Moves.)

s: Spawn Jesse

Will stay on the field, making meth for Walter. After he is done, will showcase a bag of meth in which Walter can grab for a big money bonus.
This buff will increase Walter's damage on all moves, including the chemicals, except the Meth Lab and FeLiNa spawn, and it stacks with the drinks.
Doesn't stack with itself but increase its duration.
Jesse will disappear if hit while cooking, or goes offscreen. That include the bag of meth if you didn't grab it.
You can cook on your own while Jesse is present.

fwd,a: Simply cancel the move.


a: The Study of Change (Air OK)
down,a: The Study of Change Downwards (In The Air)

Either throw a beaker that contains the chemical you have made, or drink from it for the buffs.
If nothing was done beforehand, throw an empty beaker that deal light damage, knockback and hitstun.


fwd,a: FeLiNa (Air OK)

Spawn a car on the field. It cannot be hit but cannot turn around on its own and is immobile. Also disappears if it goes offscreen.
Press fwd,a again to make it shoot. Removes itself after being done.

up,a: Dipping Sticks, Skyler (Air OK)

Throw a bag, a pizza, and its box, in the air, like in that one famous scene from the show.
Also is a contact move.
