A Special is special programming that gives a player an advantage in DeathMatches and Game Trials. It has been described as "magical attacks" in the gaming world. When TENka created so many rules about specials, the use of them decreased vastly. Currently, there are over 500 articles in the Specials and it is over 1000 pages long.

- Attack - Can't be used with less than 5 HP
- Area - Affects all players equally
