About Fischl: Fighting Style
Verse || Honkai: Star Rail

tl;dr: Fischl has a dirty close-quarters fighting style that focuses on aggression over defense, that can transition into a snowball of overwhelming power focused on simply overwhelming her opponents with a relentless high-power onslaught.
⠀⠀⠀⠀Fischl is no emanator-level combatant by any measures - but she is also far from a pushover of any description. Even with her bare hands, Fischl can be considered a lethal weapon on merit of her training.
⠀⠀⠀⠀Under the training from Kevin and Hua, Fischl learned a number of different combat styles and techniques. There is some merit of her style that comes through raw power in her techniques, a necessary mirror to how absurdly strong Kevin was.
⠀⠀⠀⠀On a most basic level, Fischl is a lethal hand-to-hand combatant. Her synthetic arms are tuned to provide a great deal of physical strength to her, supporting her various martial arts styles that she learned from Hua. In current day, these are Fischl's favorite combat styles and techniques - using the numerous different techniques and styles learned from Hua and adapting them to the powers she has.
⠀⠀⠀⠀Greatswords are Fischl's next best weapon, having used Shamash in both handgun and greastsword format for an extensive period of her life. To her, the weight of that weapon in her hands is the most comfortable for use, but is by far the least comfortable for her psyche - as such, she often distances herself from great weapons because of her past.
⠀⠀⠀⠀As for current, her favored weapon is a longsword/katana format - using primarily Seven Thunders of Retribution, the Divine Key in her possession. However, she will opt to avoid using this weapon in any of its forms if that can be avoided. In general she prefers not to have it be widely known that she is in possession of a weapon as powerful as it is, and will go to some notable lengths to stop that sort of information from getting out if she can.
⠀⠀⠀⠀In most fights, Fischl will opt for fighting hand-to-hand, and using her lightning/electro to empower her attacks, channeling it through the framework of her arms. As things escalate, she will switch to more aggressive combat tactics - prone to letting her arms take damage due to their durability and resilience, resulting in her being more battered from more grueling fights as a consequence of her fighting style.
⠀⠀⠀⠀When Fischl is forced to use her Divine Key, she will be in her most aggressive combat stance, using the weapon to its fullest potential without using any of it's full powers. Even when forced to use the weapon, she prefers to keep its potential under wraps, since the First and Zeroth powers of Divine Keys are in a different league of power.
In general when in this stance, she can be considered on a level of aggression as a boss like the modded Elden Ring Boss fight: Unalloyed Malenia.
