The Belial is far different from the Kshatriya...
If you want to know its fighting styles, think of the Blitz Gundam mixed with Dynames and the added style of using his sword like Vergil from Devil May Cry...
He can also do a "Freedom-type" beam spam attack, but that's VERY RARE, seeing that this leaves him quite vulnerable.
Now, my main question is does the Night Fury have a generic shielding system like the other Infinite Stratos.
If it doesn't, I don't think that the armor will do much against the assasination type weapons on Belial.
Night Fury will have to constantly keep on the move, because a hit from any of my weapons nearly always means OHKO. Of course, your IS being very agile, it might suck to hit it.
Here's how my stealth system works... in details (copy pasted from a message to James)
Spoiler for Nightmare cape mechanics:
My idea was that the cape was designed to not take much energy away, be it activation or keeping it on, giving him near permanent invisibility. Here's the way I imagined the way stuff would go.
That thing bends light all over it, tricking people about what they think they're seeing.
See here for a diagram I drew up quickly
Due to the fact that the materials that compose the cape themselves partly do the job of the stealth (reflection of about 80%), Belial only needs to input a small amount of juice to keep that camo working.
Here's the twist though. If someone gets close enough (around 30 meters), he will getting plasma energy tickling his shields. The fact is, the Raphael Plasma Projectors , while the Nightmare cape is deployed, send various types of particles on the cape itself and in the surroundings to make the invisibility near perfect (the plasma particles have got some sort of "equalizing" effect to the incomplete stealth the cape itself gives.)
Also, when he shoots, he has to sneak out a portion of his gun out of the cape's cover, so that part becomes visible (much like the invisible Guymelefs in Escaflowne that the baddies use).
The melee assassination thus is quite risky, as if someone has good enough senses, they'll notice something is fishy around them when Belial gets close. (Of course, mooks or must-die villains will notice too late)
So if you get close enough, it won't do me any good to stealth, as you'll start noticing me easily.
Once you know where I am (if you managed to survive the OHKO attacks I sent you while cloaked), Alex will probably get cornered because he's much slower than the Night Fury. Then, time to switch to the second mode. We'll get pretty much even then, with the only exception... I don't have as much ranged weapons as you. (even though mine's more powerful). It'll either end up in a shoot-out until one tires out or a melee fest akin to the most Gundam epic duels.
But I seem to have predicted the epic use of beam weaponry in this thread... thus why I have very good energy defenses...
I can do a badass block of your energy projectiles with my cape! XD
The two main weapons that can severely damage me would be the plasma bazooka (being the same type of power as my shielding, it will require me to divert more energy into the plasma field, leaving me powerless if done too much), the Railguns (god I hate ballistic weapons) and of course, the beamsabers, if you get me while I am still in caped mode, or you pierce through the plasma field.
But then... why would the two fight? O.o
Perhaps if it is during a tournament yes... But Alex has to specifically use the Belial ONLY when he really needs to. He'll stay into a trainer IS otherwise (until the Omega Division authorizes him with constant usage, which I guess, should be after the first time Belial appears. The reason why Alex uses it would be saving Ichika from Phantom Task drones I guess.)
To quote from my character sheet:
Of course, all that happens with the epic BGMs!
