Black Mage	Swipes a scythe downwards in an arc. This move can send opponents in different directions. Different parts of the attack do different damage. If the blade hits the opponent at a certain angle (an image of Death will show), a grim reaper will hover above the opponent and attack the opponent after a randomly decided period of time. It is a meteor smash. The Grim Reaper effect is disconnected from the actual damage-dealing swipe, and as such has a separate hitbox (can hit even if the swipe may miss).	6% 6%
