The Palm, known in Japan as Breaking Palm, (破掌, "Hashou") is one of the nine weapons in Kid Icarus: Uprising. Unlike the other weapons, it is actually not a physical item at all. Rather, it is described as a magical rune that Pit wears on his right hand and along his arm. The Palm gives off a noticeable aura when in use. Palms can be seen in two forms when shown in pictures. They can either be witnessed as they would look on the players arm or they would be shown as a ball with surrounding aurora. The latter is the palms original form when not worn by anyone.
Attributes
The Palm allows Pit to harness energy in the palm of his hand, as its name suggests. With this ability, Pit is able to shoot bursts of magical energy that have the ability to rapidly home in on enemies. Along with the Claws, the Palm is one of the lightest weapons in the game. The shots fired from it make Pit create a sphere of energy above his hand, then shatter it into many fragments to deal damage to enemies.
