IV. Introduction (DA004)
========================
Hey, everyone. First off, I wanted to thank everyone who supported me after
my time writing Tales of Innocence for the DS. I'm very pleased that the
FAQ I wrote have recieved positive reception. You guys are the reason why
I continue writing FAQs. Anyway, this is the first time I have ever written a
FAQ for a fighting game. Because of the nature of this game, feel free to add
in any extra input that I may have overlooked.

V. General Overview (DA005)
===========================
Dark Awake: The King has No Name or Chaos Breaker is a fighting game made by
Eolith. As some of you know, they made a couple of games for SNK. They made
King of Fighters 2001 and 2002. Their past game developments had certainly
shown some influence when they made Dark Awake. As you can see, it's a weapon
-based fighting game with some elements found in a typical SNK fighting game
with a touch of Dungeon and Dragons. There are several twists in the fighting
game formula that deviates from all the other fighting games such as Item usage
and clashing. Anyway, when the game released in 2004, it was exclusively an
arcade machine; not to mention that it had no overseas release. Recently, Recom
decided to port this obscure fighting game to the PS3 in Japan. Although there
are no visual enhancements, Dark Awake comes with online play. Despite
the fact that this game is exclusively a Japanese-only release, majority of
the text are in English. So, you should have little trouble treading through
the menus.

-----------
Basic Moves
-----------
Throws
------
Throws can be executed when you are at close proximity with your opponent. To
do so, press the following below.
f + d or b + d
Dash
----
If you need to move back or forward without jumping simply tapping forward or
back while you are in the ground.
Super Jump
----------
You can jump higher than normal to get out of tricky spots such as the corners.
Tech-roll
---------
Getting hit airborne or getting knocked off from a powerful attack can sometimes
take a toll on the recovery time while getting up. You can recover quickly by
pressing any attack buttons before you hit the ground.
Mana Gauge
----------
It's a 3-level gauge below the screen. This is an important gauge to look out
for because many of the basic moves such as supers, Item burst and etc.
requires at least 1 level of your mana.
Mana Burst
----------
It's this game Super/Desperate attack. Self explanatory.
When you have an item on stock, simply press C + D to use it. Likewise, if you
have more than 1 item on stock, press A + B for slot 1, B + C for slot 2 and
C + D for slot 3.
Item Burst
----------
Each of the items on hand have a second function. For the most part, it acts
as an offensive assault to the opponent. Keep in mind that Item Burst takes
up 1 level of your mana gauge. To do an item burst do the following below.
qcf + c+D
If you have other items with you, just do the qcf notation except you press
A + B or B + C at the end.
Passive Effect
--------------
Some items have secondary effects. For example, if you block the opponent's
attack and you are wearing the Protection Ring, it occassionally gives you
no damage from your opponent. In other words, there's a random chance that
a chip damage will not occur after blocked attacks.
However, if you equip the character with their signature weapon, then the
character will gain bonuses throughout the match. Take Vritra for example.
If you have Nightmare Blade with you as your item and his turn came up,
not only there is a cosmetic change, but his strength and magic increases.
Make sure to look up the items section for more passive effects.
Mana Counter
------------
Like in many fighting games, there are times when your opponent will pull
off long combo strings and you are blocking while getting chipped to death.
While you are blocking your opponent's attacks, do the following below.
f, df, d + D
Please note that doing mana counter requires at least 1 level of your mana
gauge before pulling it off.
Character Assist
----------------
If you have more than 1 or 2 characters on standby, you can press A + B or
B + C and do their assisted attacks. Please note that it also takes up
1 level of your mana. So use it wisely.
Criticals
---------
If your character is equipping their signature weapon, chances are that
your character can now pull off critical hits. It randomly increases damage
to the inflicted opponent. However, critical hits does NOT occur after a
combo.
Deflect
-------
You can deflect your opponent's weapon attacks by simply dashing forward
or back during the opponent's attack animation. Also note that if you and
your opponent did an attack at the same time, a clash will occur. It's a
similar effect to deflecting. after a deflect animation, it gives the player
or the opponent some extra frames to punish their attack. The timing for
deflecting an attack is not strict. So, if your timing is a bit too late,
there's a good chance that you can still deflect your attack.
