Quickening - Phoenix Dash

A Quickening is a powerful magical attack that characters in Final Fantasy XII can use if they have a full MP charge for the specified quickening. In my Final Fantasy XII story, Dawn of Twilight, my character, Artz, uses a quickening. Characters within the game have three quickenings they can learn, next one being more powerful than the last.

The image below is a rough comparison to Artz's first quickening, the Phoenix Dash, and it is roughly how she looks while standing still, right before she unleashes the attack.

Level 1 Quickening - Phoenix Dash

The Phoenix Dash engulfs Artz's hands in blue flames before a pair of blue flamed wings erupts from her back and propels her forward at an almost god like speed while she lands successive blows on her opponent. She slides to a halt behind her opponent, right fist stretched out.

Quickenings for Artz usually leave her exhausted unless she is in an area with a concentration of Mist.
