Extended Blade Range

Background

The ability or effect of extending the range of a weapon or attack. Usually in most cases with melee weapons, the force of the weapon actually extends the range of it. Because it is invisible, it’s quite normal for opponents to be caught off guard by the attack.

However in lots of other cases, it’s an actual ability for the weapon to have an extra effect where the blade is extended by an invisible force.

Users may be cable of attacking a target from a distance without actually moving to that location. Often this can give off the impression that the user is really fast, when in reality they don’t actually move that quickly.
