Cyberman Neck Pressure Point Hold
The Cyber Leader's hands press precise nerve clusters at the base of the Doctor's skull, fingers digging into the strained muscles of his neck. Sarah feels the same iron grip on her windpipe, her breath hitching as resistance numbs into submission. The Cyberman’s grip is surgical—each pressure point targeted with mechanical efficiency, forcing their bodies into stillness rather than striking with brute force. Their faces twist under the silent pain of compressed nerves rather than broken bones.
