Description
Arcuin

Definitely a puffin (totally not a penguin, Dan said so)
...
(just for clarification, that was a joke, they are based on a rockhopper penguin)

Traveling from the Ice Barrens, Arcuin is looking for trouble.... Once originally part of the Harbor Guard, Arcuin was defeated in combat versus the Black Ice. With unknown abyssal strength, Arcuin was brought back as a soldier for the creatures of ice and shadow.

While serving for the Harbor Guard, Arcuin was an architect for their towering frozen fortress. He served his comrades by repairing, maintaining, and upgrading the ice-related technology. This knowledge, now in the hands of savage creatures, is bound to reek havoc on the world of Aether.

Specials

Attack + Special (Chain Release)

All chains currently attached from Arcuin to other objects and enemies will be detached and returned safely.

Nspecial (Chain Grab)

Arcuin grabs the opponent and applies a chain to them before striking them upwards

Fspecial (Ice Chain)

Arcuin hurls forward an ice dagger mounted to a chain that can attach to enemies, floors, walls, and his own ice objects

Dspecial (Hammer Slam)

Slamming the ground, Arcuin erupts a chunk of abyssal ice from the ground. This ice can be attached to chains or hit along the ground to threaten the enemy. If Arcuin is chained to an ice chunk, going into a helpless state will cause the sphere to crash into him. This can be a very useful tool, but can be used against him just as easily.

Uspecial (Hammer Thrust + Ice Chain)

Arcuin shoots into the air with his hammer guiding him. Holding down the SPECIAL button will let Arcuin follow up by throwing a chain towards the ground in front of him.

I keep getting this bug where when the CPU is set to play Arcuin and I hit him the game crashes. Idk what it is exactly, but I tried it with three different main cast characters and each time as soon as I landed a hit the game immediately crashed. Love the character, hopefully this gets fixed?

I love Arcuin so much. Great sprites and animation, fantastic custom sounds, and top-notch game feel. Hitting things with this guy makes my brain very happy. Thank you for blessing the world with this beautiful hammer penguin.

i just thought of the most amazing use of the rock and i hope it works (use it as a spiking tool off the edge)
