Is it an actual image? As far as I know, you can't Click() an image >_>

Seems like it should work fine. Add some debug messages to the Click() and the verb; one of those if()s may be returning before anything actually happens. Or you may not actually be clicking on whatever the obj is.

Also, that first else in the Chidori verb is pointless. And if you only want it to be activated by clicking an object, I'd make it a proc instead of a verb.

EDIT: After a quick test; it seems you can't click objects which are in overlays. Assuming you're adding that to overlays (since its an obj/overlays/) that would be the problem.

There are no objects in overlays anyway; only static visual snapshots, or appearances. All overlays of an atom count as that atom's own icon and are treated the same as such, so when you click a mob's overlay you are really clicking that mob itself.
