Committal air-mobility fighter · Advanced
skybound scribe
“Every ending leaves enough sky for one more line.”
01 / BACKGROUND
Codex woke inside an unfinished combat manual whose discarded revisions had begun arguing with the final text. Rather than choose one authoritative version, the scribe built a body from copper punctuation, teal lacquer, and the paper-bright feathers left between chapters.
Now Codex enters the circuit to test whether revision can be a fighting discipline instead of an apology. Every leap writes a temporary route above the arena; every landing accepts the risk that a beautiful line can still be answered.
02 / SPECIAL ATTACKS
Inputs assume the fighter faces right. W = punch · E = kick.
Ultra-high evasive ascent
Codex commits to an ultra-high rising arc that clears horizontal threats but stays punishable through the long descent.
Committing aerial glide
A copper-winged forward glide crosses one aerial lane with modest damage and a clearly exposed landing recovery.
Velocity-weighted gravity dive
Codex inscribes a gravity seal and commits to a crushing dive whose impact compounds with descent speed; the same input cancels Context Ascent only after its apex.
03 / SPRITE SHEET
38 hand-drawn poses — the same sprites the terminal renders.
