SSL: Pillow

Description
An original character, the pyjama-clad Bethany Claire—also known by her self-nickname of "Pillow"—is a character made for the SSL gamemode: as a grappler-type character, she can struggle with long distances, but excels when up close.

Notable Moves
NEUTRAL ATTACK/NEUTRAL AIR ATTACK: BURST TACKLE

Borrowing from her history in wrestling, her neutral attack has her dash forward, attempting to grab an opponent. If this is successful, she'll perform the "Snow Slammer", launching them away. This two-in-one move can serve as a set-up tool or a powerful finisher—it's your choice as to how you'll use it! Just keep in mind that missing your target leaves you open for a counterattack.

UP AIR ATTACK: CUBE KICK

Pillow leaps into the air, kicking twice before a frosty finale with strong knockback. It doesn't go very far, though, and it leaves you helpless, so watch out!

DOWN ATTACK / DOWN AIR ATTACK: HEAVY STOMP / HEAVY AIR STOMP

A far-launching move that has Pillow stomp on the ground, comparable to a strong attack—if it hits in the air, its power is slightly weaker. Be careful when diving off-stage!

cool character if you're still thinking of stage control maybe have wrestling ring ropes that opponents bounce off?

How about just giving her a belly ram, or a belly drum, that means slapping her belly, as her parry?

@The Insane Scout I can see the clouds working, though they would likely be rather similar to Absa's own, and I am admittedly not sure if they'd fit her, both as a character and as a fighter. Thank you for the suggestion, though!

And give her a belly ram?

How about clouds that shoot out lightning?

@The Insane Scout It's rare for characters made for Rivals of Aether to not have some form of it! Some examples of it include Zetterburn's field of fire on his down special, Etalus' ice, and Maypul's Lily plant.

Stage control?

@The Insane Scout Well, I have thought about it, though I admittedly couldn't think of a way for her to fit the base game myself: for example, what stage control she would have.

Can you PLEASE make a non-SSL version of "Pillow"? Thank you. :)
