Assassin, Shadow of the Hollow Night

Description
He wanders -- Bound by the will and governing of an ancient family, but his emotions tremor. The promise he made with a young girl shackles him, in rusty chains he strives to sever. The Night becomes a labyrinth, impeding his progress. Will he ever find the beacon he seeks?

My first YOMI mod, Assassin is a recreation of Seth from Under Night In-Birth with a few added things and changes I thought would be cool.
Considering my track record this character will definitely release with bugs and/or dumb oversights, if you find anything broken or weird please let me know in the comments.

Notes:
- Assassin doesn't have a Hustle and instead has Concentration, which speeds up Burst build and slows down the opponent's Burst build.
- Black Hole Orb, Shredder and Moonrise are Force Functions, which are moves that cost half your Burst meter to use. You can still use them if you have less than 50% Burst though, and they'll give your opponent the amount of Burst you're missing instead.
- Chain Shift, Assassin's Whiff Cancel, costs all of your Burst but can be used in neutral with a longer animation to convert your Burst meter into Super meter.
- Veil Off is an alt burst usable starting at 5 bars, and drains all of your meter over time. During Veil Off, Assassin gains a 20% damage boost, the ability to overspend Super meter, and an IK followup from level 5 if you have 3 bars remaining and the opponent's health is low enough.
- Cross Cast Veil Off, the combo version of Veil Off, additionally costs your Burst to activate.

I'm planning on giving assassin a major rework in the near future including a full resprite, some of what you mentioned kind of overlaps with things I already had in mind (one idea i have is concentration giving you the orb buff from under night which will make your next orb/clone have improved properties, orb becoming unkillable and shooting faster and clone getting better movement and the ability to block) but some of it sounds really fun especially the clone swap, although i'd have to be careful with the implementation because free action swaps can be super degenerate. I don't like adans' lights out though, i don't think making the game harder to see is fun for either player, but I might make veil off look fancier and give additional buffs like permanent orb/clone buff

Still love him in 2025, id appreciate a good meter-based neutral tool (seeing as he gets so much of it) but the high damage supers do create hype moments an aura
Would recommend things like swap places with clone for 1 bar, instantly fire orb dart for maybe 0.5 bar, summon clone anywhere within a range for a bar, or (similar to Inklessbrush's own assassin mod or the Adans "lights out") a short obscuring and imposing install for 2 bar
Any or all of these would be great, on top of the fun mod he already is.
