Martial Arts Style: Chinese Martial Arts (probably some form of Kung-Fu)
Cursed Form: A massive, flying minotaur, with tentacles on his back (combination of bull, yeti, eel, crane, and octopus)
Strengths: In terms of martial arts, Pantyhose's greatest strength is his intelligence. He is very crafty in battle, and if given enough time, he can construct battlefields which will give him great advantages over his enemies. Even if he doesn't have the opportunity to do such things, he still is usually able to control the flow of a battle, forcing his enemy to fight on his terms. He's also pretty quick in human form too, easily on the higher end of Ranma 1/2's fighters. The greatest and most significant of his strengths, however, is his Jusenkyo curse. Instead of becoming weaker, like most cursed folks, he becomes a 'demon.' His cursed form gives him an ungodly amount of strength, able to lay even the toughest of fighters on the ground in a single blow, and it also gives him the ability to fly. With the addition of the octopus curse, he also has eight tenticles which serve as extra appendages with which he can overwhlem his enemies, restrain them, etc.
Weaknesses: While his cursed form makes him virtually undefeatable, he tends to rely on it to a fault. In his human form, his martial arts are good, but not anywhere near good enough to challenge someone like Ranma and win. In a pitched battle, if Taro were unable to activate his curse he would be in a lot of trouble. Also, the sheer size of his cursed form can sometimes be a liability. He has, on several occasions, punched himself in the head trying to get opponents who got themselves onto him. Indeed, it's possible for several regular sized people to hang onto his back where he can't get at them. In addition, he has a severe problem with people calling him 'Pantyhose,' and tends to get quite upset and a little sloppy when this is used against him.
Weapons: Pantyhose is more or less a hand to hand fighter, but occasionally he will use the pantyhose he carries as a sash to tie up his opponents.
Special Moves:
Pantyhose doesn't have much in the way of special moves... His cursed form more than makes up for that, however, in terms of sheer power. However, in his cursed form, thanks to the octopus part, he can shoot streams of black ink at his opponents in order to blind them.
