Definition
Speed is the amount of time it takes someone or something to travel a certain distance. There are 3 forms of speed relevant to the discussion of fictional battles.
- Travel Speed- How fast one can go from Point A to Point B
- Combat Speed- How fast one can fight
- Reaction time- How one can perceive and react to something.
