The idea of deriving a feeling of pleasure through inflicting pain or suffering on another living being.
A person incapable of feeling emotion and empathy, though they may fake displaying such in order to fit into society. Their inability to empathize make them potentially dangerous as they lack the ability to feel guilt or remorse for cruel acts committed against others.
In fighting games, some characters have special moves that are counterattacks. In order for the attack to work, the player must enter the proper command and then allow for the opponent to strike when the player's character is in the move's "wait" position.

When the player character can execute a jump that is higher or farther than their normal jump. This can require holding the jump button or performing some different control input, and can be limited by energy or a cooldown.
Super Speed is the ability for a character to travel at speeds normally unattainable by regular humans. Super speed can be a stock super power by characters such as the Flash & Sonic the Hedgehog, or a technologically enhanced ability like Nomad in Crysis.
