That sounds like the sort of feat one would expect of a Vegeta or a Son Goku.

I wonder if the game is just as functional on the Lodoss Wars power level or, heaven preserve us all, the Marmalade Boy power level where social pressure and emotional influence are everything and physical force is utterly non-productive.
