Thive : The King of Thieves and Approximately 60,000+ Bees

Thive and his Queen Bee wife are here to claim the possessions of Aether for their kingdom! He’s an original version of my Purrloin mod designed for Tournament play and more emphasis on his summons!

This badger is a fast moving puppet/sentry style character, able to land quick and powerful hits as well as set down hives that act as barriers from incoming projectiles and make part of the stage dangerous for your opponent to stand near! With their speed, small size, and conquering of land for the monarch, they make for a very formidable foe!

============
Special Moves
============

Nspecial:
-A quick aoe whistle that summons a beehive in front of Thive. You can only drop 2 beehives before needing to destroy one to replace another.

-By pressing Nspecial while a hive is out, you can order the hives to attack anything around them shortly after your whistle!

-By holding Nspecial, you can command the hives to destroy themselves! If the hives are full of honey, you’ll cause a devastating explosion!

—-

Fspecial:

-Thive blows a kiss towards the opponent, only to reveal that the Thive that was once there is actually a honey clone, and dash forward at incredible speed!

-This move will go into pratfall unless you land the hit, so make sure to be careful about how you use it!

-Using this offstage could lead to your demise, make sure you line up your attack just right!

-Using this on a beehive will reduce it’s endlag drastically and bounce you off of it!

—-

Dspecial:

-Thive extends their hand in peace, offering the opponent honey. If the opponent gets too close, they’ll wind up having their lifeforce drained and converted to Honey Armor!

-Honey Armor can protect thive from 25% of incoming damage, but will not heal or prevent existing knockback from being lowered!

-Use Dspecial on beehives to heal them

-If you have honey armor, 1-5 of your honey will be given to the hive, boosting it’s attack power and allowing it to detonate on Nspecial hold

-If you use dspecial on a hive with honey, you will get 1 honey armor in return!

—-

Uspecial:

-Thive leaps up and grabs the opponent, then jumps off their head, sending them to the blastzone or ground bellow!

-Hold left or right to change which downward direction the opponent will go and where you will jump!

-Use on a hive to have it attack multiple times, then jump off!

—-

Dair:

-While not a special move, Dair has special properties you should know about!

-After some time, you can jump out of dair’s plummet by pressing (or mashing) the jump button. It can also move left to right while falling

-Use dair on a hive to reduce your endlag and bounce you off it at a much shorter height than usual!
