Demon Character: Azrael
Scene: Azrael stands in a dark alley, confronting a mugger who has just threatened an innocent victim. The mugger lunges at Azrael with a knife, and Azrael aims to dull the assailant's reflexes to protect himself.
Azrael places a hand on the mugger's arm, and the energy flows through him. The mugger's reflexes are dulled by two degrees, making him slower and less coordinated. This gives Azrael the upper hand, allowing him to easily disarm the mugger and protect the intended victim.
