Description:

A Succubus Demon Familiar who possesses the ability to manipulate dreams, Len is a macabre creation; a deceased human girl?s soul infused into the corpse of a kitten. She can shift her form between the two.
She also happens to love cake. Typically quiet and preferring her own company, Len is capable of fighting, despite appearances.

She is also Shiki Tohno?s Familiar, having formed a contract with him, though she doesn?t need a contract to continue to exist.

NEUTRAL SPECIAL: Fleur Freeze
Len creates an icicle that extends decently far. The tip deals more damage and Knockback than the middle and backend.

In midair, this completely stops her momentum.

SIDE SPECIAL: Divine Punishment / Pretty Walk
Len will duck down and disappear, either attacking with Divine Punishment–without any additional inputs–after Len turns invisible, she summons a gigantic hammer for an incredibly slow but powerful overhead. If directions are pressed after she?s invisible, this instead becomes one of 3 variations of Pretty Walk.

If forward or backwards is pressed while she is invisible, she will produce an illusionary Len running in the direction pressed. The real Len will walk that same direction as a cat slightly.
If upwards is pressed while she is invisible, she will produce an illusionary Len jumping up.
If downwards is pressed while she is invisible, she will teleport a little ways ahead in the direction she’s facing.

Only Divine Punishment may be used in midair; it stops Len?s momentum, and is a bit slower than on the ground. She will fall downwards for a short while before she can take another action.

UP SPECIAL: Magic the Poe
Len makes herself invisible. Afterwards, if one of the four cardinal directions are pressed (Up, Right, Down or Left), she will teleport a set distance in that direction. Pressing nothing will keep her at the same location. If Len teleports directly onto an opponent, they will be sent upwards with significant knockback, but the timing is precise.

DOWN SPECIAL: Grass Grass Tea Time

No additional inputs will make Len put down a striped, tiger cat.
Pressing backwards quickly will make Len put down a silver cat.
Pressing forward quickly will make Len put down a black cat.
Pressing up instead throws out a Neko Arc who will rocket upwards.

The striped cat launches enemies upwards. Its speed is very fast.
The silver cat will not deal damage, but it will continuously push enemies. Its speed is moderate.
The black cat stuns enemies and has downward Knockback. Its speed is slow.

ULTRA: Ephemeral Transience / Ephemeral Dream
Len charges up a large orb that slowly moves horizontally forward. It deals weak damage but can hit a foe infinitely, and provides strong knockback; aiming it right will make it nearly impossible for the opponent to escape.

SPECIAL MECHANICS:
Len’s crouch and a few of her attacks and moves transform her into a cat, significantly shrinking her hurtbox; often near instantaneously.

PROS:
Len can easily manoeuvre through the air and set traps along the ground to control the battlefield.
Her transformative abilities are excellent for avoiding attacks that might otherwise hit her, and her teleportation powers allow her great mobility.
However?

CONS:
Her illusions are not likely to trick wise or sharp-eyed opponents, and while her attacks may vary in power and range, many of them leave her in a compromising position if she is careless.
