So in a display of JRPG geekyness I thought i'd pose the question, if you had a Limit Break what would it be and why?

(For those not in the know, Limit Breaks were a FF7 mechanic which, once a meter was filled after taking so much damage, you unleashed a special attack with evolved into better ones)

Mine- Feint Strike- Slipping past the enemy, drawing a hidden dagger strapped to the back of my belt and hitting the poor bastard where it hurts.

Okay.... GO!

Killer Instinct. A surge of power rushes inside me as I dash and break through my target's guard- knocking the wind out of him and fracturing a couple of his ribs in the process.

DO to my enormous standard attacks, I never need to use limit breaks.

As such, I choose 'Sexy Pose' s my limit break.

Egg-splosion!

I strike a couple of poses with my daggers and the sky turns black. My party disappears and mine enemies look to the sky. It is darkened with colorful eggs. 30 eggs randomly strike the enemies dealing damage directly relative to my level (which is still quite low right now). They (may) die, we reappear.

Knowledge Overload. Basically I'd say lots of facts and use big words to confuse my enemies and put them in a daze. Then their heads explode trying to figure out what I said.

Nerdy:
Tetral Collapse: i would call giant tetris blocks to fall from the sky surrounding them, them a straight line piece will come in the middle and crush them

Gothic/dark:
Darkness crush: i would burst into a million pieces of darkness, swarm along the ground, jump onto the target, and squeeze inwards to crush them.

Actual:
Spy: literally ninja behind them, flip open a balisong, and stab them through the back into the heart (instant kill)

So in other words, you take the form of Stephen Fry!

Linux Rampage.

I randomly install Linux on to every electronic device to come my way with absolutely no regard of whether the device will still fulfil it's primary function. Oh what? That's not a dangerous attack? You ever tried to use your omni-tool with Debian on it? Oooh, sorry Rinoa but Canonical will be actioning boomerang return functionality in the next update.
I'm good. My phone, laptop, and a few other things run linux.

On topic, mine would have to be Irreverence Eminence: The ability to befuddle and bedazzle people with a never ending stream of topic shifting and information overload until their brains shut down.

Dove of Peace: A special attack that not only cures my party but also the opisition and they're so grateful they leave us alone and let us get on with out quest would having to harass them or them harass us in the process.

(Sounds sissy but think out much less time you'd have to spend grinding to level up and get better weapons with that).

But for some more meatiness:

The sword of justice: Cuts in half the HP of the party who holds the highest combined HP and them paralyses them for three turns. Two turns as they can get off for good behaviour.

Obviously you'd have to time it right, the sword of justice is blind but not indiscriminant.
