Quick Dragon Ball Additions

The Tri-Beam simply rapidly exhausts the user's Ki. All techniques drain the user's life force because life force is a key component of Ki.

The Enhanced Afterimage Creation addition is fine, but including that it's accomplished "via Martial Arts" is unnecessary, given the act of creating an afterimage inherently involves bodily movement—and especially considering the Afterimage Technique itself is a martial arts technique.
 
The inferior Kamehameha does not lower the life span peruse even though life force is a component of Ki, which makes the tri beam unique.
The Kamehameha also, noticeably, does not exhaust quite as much Ki as the Tri-Beam does.
For King Piccolo, even in his youth, using his full power shortens his lifespan. Does not mean he has Self-Life Force Drain; he's just exhausting himself extremely.

Idk man, if I'm so strong I generate tornadoes with my punches, I feel like that's some form of wind/air manip, even if everyone technically generates SOME wind with force.

In this case, Tri-Beam's energy usage seems so excessive that it being Self-Life Force Drain is probably applicable here.

Everybody has Passive Self-Life Force Drain. It's called aging.
"Self-Life Force Drain" isn't a power; "Self-Life Force Drain" is exhausting your stamina. If you exhaust 100% of your stamina, you collapse or you die.

As I said with the other example, an amplified extent of a thing everyone has would still count as an ability.
Yes, everyone's life drains passively. They don't have the abilities to massively accelerate this process if they so choose, Tien does.

At the end of the day, idrc, it has no real usages, but it absolutely should be indexed if we are being technical.

Completely disregarding how the genuinely novel concept of "Self-Life Force Drain" only exists because of our community's clinical need to increase the number of powers and abilities indexed on any given Dragon Ball page every other week; King Piccolo should have "Self-Life Force Drain", then, yes? Users of the Mafuba should get the "ability", right? And Majin Vegeta's Final Explosion? And Gamma 2? Shouldn't every character capable of using Ki Manipulation Techniques have the ability? Again, dying by self-exhaustion is not unique to the Kikoho; users of the the Kikoho are simply taught to maximize damage output by exceeding their limits with every blast.
 
Yeah, no, why are we even indexing something as self-life force drain? Energy gets drained as we use it in battle or whatever activities we do. Should we also need to have self-energy/stamina drain indexed? , also the draining is kind of just a side effect when we using things.

If for the point of indexing at the highest technical level, then yes.
 
Y'know, I was waiting for the right time to ask it, but exactly does "Self-Life Force Drain" even mean? Like, when you think about the Xenoverse Super Skill, it's called Energy Drain because the user drains energy from their target into themselves. What exactly are you draining your own life force into here? The void?

Just the ability to forcefully expel life from yourself if needed, I'm guessing.
