Name - Aremi
Gender - Female
Species - Wikkan
Origin - Aremi is a Wikkan from the planet Wikko-1, a planet infused in methane and sulfuric gasses, making it near impossible to breathe from outsiders without a special suit. Wikkans are essentially living plants, using the methane in their air to retain body warmth and even manipulate it for self-defense. Aremi's people used to be very wealthy, as the gases in their homeworld were mined and converted into a powerful fuel named Pyronite, with the largest stow of the substance being used to power the Double Sigma. However, after the ship was lost, Wikko-1 was blamed due to their fuel being said to have caused the ship's disappearance; as a result, the planet was blacklisted from all known trade, and the planet fell into civil war as a result. Aremi, feeling trapped in her home world, took a risk and decided to travel outside her small planet and take back the Double Sigma for herself for profit, making her noticed by EPSILON in particular.
Appearance - Aremi takes inspiration from plague doctors, scare crows, and Jack-o-lanterns. Her body is draped in a straw-based cloak that has an olive color; this cloak also lacks sleeves, making her ghostly in appearance. The limbs she does show resemble gnarled bark with blacking-olive coloration. Her face resembles that of a typical jack-o-lantern, with each of her skins giving a different face "carving." She has glowing purple eyes and mouth, matching the color of the fire she creates.

Ground Moves:
Jab - Root Kicks – A standing kick, followed by two more using her vine for support as she roots herself into the ground.

Dash Attack - Root Sweeper – Aremi's vine roots herself into the ground for support, she then gets thrust forward a short distance, attacking with a sweep kick before retracting to her original position.
Charge Attacks:
Side Charge - Spitfire – Aremi spits out a burst of roaring flames. It's got a short range but is fast and powerful, can be angled up or down.
Up Charge - Firework Flare—Aremi raises her hand, pointing straight up while charging a flame at her fingertip. She then fires it into the sky where it explodes in spectacular fashion. The image produced by the flame can vary, but it is purely aesthetic and does not affect the moves attributes.
Down Charge - Arcane Flare – Aremi summons a wall of purple fire from the ground to surround herself and keep opponents at bay. The middle frames of the move gives her temporary invincibility.
Aerials:
Neutral Air - Branch Kick – Aremi extends her leg to kick and holds the pose, allowing the hit to momentarily linger.

I know I posted this moveset on my Sigma Busters thread, but I love it so much that I wanted to share it to the general chats as well. For added context, every fighter has a Back Tilt they can perform from behind, each Special can be enhanced into a Hyper Special by spending some meter, and each fighter has 3 levels of Hypermax Attacks of increasing potency that act as the Final Smash equivalent, albiet ones balanced for competitive play. How does this moveset look, any feedback you have.
