| Techniques
and Attacks |
|
Techniques work much like feats, where you must meet certain
prerequisites and each one costs a feat. Anytime your
character gains a feat, they may spend it on a
technique. There are two types of techniques, basic
and advanced. The difference between the two is that a
character can learn a basic technique on their own, while an
advanced technique requires someone else who
knows it teach the character. Learning a
technique takes a minimum of one week. After that
week, a Ki Craft check is made. If you make the
techniques Learn DC, then you now know the technique.
If you don't, then you may try to learn another, or wait
until you gain another rank in Ki Craft to make another
attempt. If you trained with a teacher and missed your
initial check, you need not train with your teacher to make
another check, but you must still train for a week on your
own. Your character can also develop their own
Techniques, contact a GM for details.

list is by no means complete. New techniques will be added
rapidly.

Blink:
Blink is a combat maneuver
which may be used to quickly navigate the battlefield,
avoid attacks, or surprise opponents. When used
for pure movement, you are able to move 4 spaces (20
ft) for each channel DC step you meet.
When using Blink to avoid attacks, you gain a 10% miss
chance for every channel DC step you meet. Likewise,
Blink can be used to negate another person's miss
chance gained by way of this technique. You are
able to negate 10% of an opponents miss chance from
Blink for every channel DC step you meet. Lastly
Blink can be used to gain an edge on your
opponent. When used in this fashion, you are
able to gain a +2 bonus to your attack roll for every
step you exceed your opponents Blink channel DC (zero
if they are not Blinking at all). While
Blink counts as a free action, it may only be used
once per round.

Ama Kakeru Ryu No Hirameki (Succession Technique): This attack is the final, most powerful move of the Hiten Mstugi Ryu style. It is an extremely fast battou jutsu (iaijutsu) strike, by hitting the attacker before the Kuzu Ryu Sen can be performed. The Ama Kakeru Ryu No Hirameki grants a +2 to the iaijutsu check per channel ki check when used. However, should a defender manage to block this tremendous strike, the true power of the maneuver is revealed: Due to the massive impact from the blow, the air is displaced between the fighters. The attacker then spins backwards, creating a vacuum between them and drawing the defender off-balance. The attacker finishes the spin with a devastating blow to the side, catching the opponent flat-footed and dealing double the bonus iaijutsu damage (based on the first attack's checks). This second phase draws 5 additional power points, and counts as a use of the Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu's Imporved Battou Jutsu ability for the day (requiring a second attack roll). If the technique is not used in melee, then the second phase isn't possible.
|MT: 1 action; Damage: As weapon; Type: Melee; Channel DC: 5; Learn DC: 45; Req: Dex 23+, Ki 23+, Weapon Focus, Weapon Specialization, Kuzu Ryu Sen, Level 10 Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu| |

fired repeatedly.
The blast is a small straight beam shot from
one finger. The

Kuzu Ryu Sen (9-Point Attack): The flashiest and most devastating attack of Hiten Mstugi Ryu style, the Kzu Ryu Sen levels all but the most resiliant foes. It is taught as a transition to the succession technique of the style. In all budo weapon training, there are nine points of importance: the head, left shoulder, right shoulder, left arm, right arm, chest, left hip, right hip, and crotch. Even in defense these points are taught, and every attack will in some way target one of the areas. However, the Kuzu Ryu Sen strikes all nine points simultaneously, leaving no way to defend. This attack is usually made as part of a charge action which leaves the attacker behind the target, and can be an iaijutsu strike (in which case drawing the weapon in the same round is not required). It costs 10 power points to use (plus one per channel step) and denys the target his Dexterity and dodge-type bonuses to AC. If it connects, it does weapon damage nine times to the target. Bonus damage from iaijutsu, Precise Strike, Empowered Strike, Strength (and other sources) are only added once. Using this attack is a full-round action. For every channel DC step made, it gains +1 to damage reduction penetration.

Mafuba:
An attack where the user shoots a swirling blast of
energy at an opponent, which allows the user to trap
his enemy by forcing him into an imprisonment
container. This
technique was invented by Mutaito-Sama as a way to
capture the “demon” Piccolo.
The problem with this technique is that it
sacrifices the user's life. First, you hold one hand in the air, palm up, and stick two
fingers out. Basically,
you concentrate on the user and pick them up, forcing
their spirit (and material body) into a Denshi Jar.
The jar holds the trapped entity indefinitely
or until the jar is broken and the life force is
released, allowing the body to reform.
The aim has to be perfect in order to get the
user inside the jar, and it takes a lot of practice.
When this technique is used, the fighter must
succeed at a ranged touch attack to “hit” their
opponent. The
defender then gets a Will save to negate the effect
(DC equal to 10 plus the number of power points
channeled). If
the defender failed their save, then the attacker
makes another touch attack for the jar.
If both attack rolls succeeded, the defender is
now trapped inside the Denshi Jar.
Whether the effect is successful or not, the
attack looses a number of Hit Points equal to the
number of power points channeled.

Makenkosappo
(Special Beam Cannon): This technique is
amazingly powerful, but in order for it to be
effective, it has to be charged for a while. To charge
for this attack, the user places two fingers on the
forehead, and the Ki is charged into the fingers.
Then, when the blast is fired, there are 2 beams, one
going out straight and the other spiraling around the
straight one. The
Makenkosappo receives a +2 inherent bonus to DR
penetration.

Will save to resist changing shape.
The DC for the save is equal to 15 + the amount
of power points channeled.
Duration of the ball of light is equal to 5
rounds plus one round per energy point channeled. Once the duration expires, those within the effected area
revert to back to their normal form.

Renzokou
Kikou Ha: The Renzokou Kikou Ha is an attack
where the user fires a continuous stream of Ki blasts. The blasts aren't very powerful, because the user must fire
them off fast and can't take time to put a lot of Ki

but deals damage according to the channel check of the
user. The duration of the blade is equal to
double the characters Ki modifier in rounds, after
which time it dissipates.

Split
Form: With this technique, you can divide
yourself into two beings, creating a duplicate up to 5
feet away. Your
duplicate thinks and acts exactly as you do and
follows your orders, although it will not do anything
you wouldn’t do yourself.
Your duplicate has all your abilities but none
or your equipment (except for duplicate clothing).
Your duplicate has half your hit points, half
your energy points (figured after deducting the cost
of this power), and other physical traits you had at
the time you manifested the power.
In addition, your DR defense is halved as well.
Powers, spells, or other effects affecting you
do not affect the duplicate.
When the duration expires or when you dismiss
the power, you and your duplicate rejoin, no matter
how far apart from each other you are.
You take the full amount of damage your
duplicate has suffered at the time of rejoining. This could potentially put you at 0 hit points or fewer, but
it cannot kill you.
Also you lose the full amount of the power
points your duplicate used up. If you die before the
duration expires, then the duplicate immediately disappears.
The effect lasts one round per power point.
|MT: 1 round; Channel DC: 5;
Type: Effect; Learn DC: 60; Prerequisites: Ki 29+|

Strengthen: Strengthen is a power up that causes the body to
bulge with muscles, greatly enhancing its Strength.
This power is however a bit strenuous to the
body and thus cannot be maintained for long.
When used, the character gains a +2 power up
bonus to Strength for every power point channeled.
This bonus lasts a number of rounds equal to
the characters Constitution modifier.

Taiyoken
(Solar Flare): This technique is very effective,
but has little to no actual fighting power.
The user places both hands beside the face,
palm in, and shouts out Taiyoken.
A very bright Solar Light is created behind the
user and blinds their opponent. If successful, the victim is blinded for 1d4 rounds.
A successful Reflex save negates the effect.
The DC for the save is equal to 15 + the amount
of power points channeled.

Terra-form
Avatar: An advanced technique wherein the user
gains a large amount of temporary Strength and Damage
Reduction with a decrease in Speed and Dexterity.
While in this form you gain damage reduction
20/+2 which stacks with any other DR you may have, and
gain a +6 power up bonus to Strength, a –6 power up
penalty to Dexterity, your speed is reduced by half,
and your unarmed damage increases by +1d4.
The user also gains about 1 foot in height,
their skin changes to resemble stone, their weight
increases by a factor of 10, and for all intents and
purposes counts as a construct, granting certain
immunities. The
effect lasts for a number of rounds equal to the
number of power points channeled.

Tobi Izuna (Ranged Cut): A ranged Empowered Strike of sorts, this attack throws beams of cutting energy through the air. The attacker channels his energy through their weapon, "throwing" its sharpness at the target. It can be fired up to as many times per round as the user has attacks per round, but each shot uses one or more power points. This attack cannot be charged. Empowered Strike may be added to the damage as normal.
|MT: free action; Damage: as weapon per shot; Channel DC: 5; Range: 3+1 per point channeled; Type: Ranged Touch; Learn DC: 25; Prerequisites: Str 15+, Ki 17+, Unrefined Ki Blast, Empowered Strike, Weapon Focus|

Tri-Form: With this technique, you can divide yourself into three beings, creating two duplicates up to 5 feet away. Your duplicates think and act exactly as you do and follow your orders, although they will not do anything you wouldn’t do yourself. Your duplicates have all your abilities but none or your equipment (except for duplicate clothing). Your duplicates have a third of your hit points, a third of your energy points (figured after deducting the cost of this power), and other physical traits you had at the time you manifested the power. Powers, spells, or other effects affecting you do not affect the duplicates. When the duration expires or when you dismiss the power, you and your duplicates rejoin, no matter how far apart from each other you are. You take half the damage your duplicates have suffered at the time of rejoining. This could potentially put you at 0 hit points or fewer, but it cant bring you to –10 hit points or less. Also you loose half or the power points your duplicates used up. If one of you dies before the duration expires, you gain one negative level and the effect ends. The effect lasts one round per power point.
|MT: 1 round; Channel DC: 7; Type: Effect; Learn DC: 70; Prerequisites: Split Form, Ki 33+| |

Tsuibi
Kienzan (Controlled Destructo Disk): The Tsuibi
Kienzan is very similar to the Kienzan in appearance
and function. The
only difference in appearance is the color, where as a
normal Kienzan is yellow, a Tsuibi Kienzan is red.
However, what really sets it apart is the fact
that the attacker can control it after it has been
thrown. Due
to this fact you gain double your Dexterity modifier
as a bonus to hit.
The Tsuibi Kienzan will stay in effect and can
be controlled for a number of rounds equal to the
characters Ki modifier, or until the attacker stops
concentrating on directing them.

Void
Strike: By concentrating Ki into your fist or foot, you are able to make an attack that penetrates another warrior's defenses.
By spending 1 energy point you can resolve an
unarmed attack as a touch attack, thus negating quite
a few armor bonuses of your opponent as well as
granting a +1 for purposes of DR penetration.
For each additional power point channeled, you
gain an additional +1 DR penetration bonus. The damage of the attack is dependant on your unarmed melee
damage. Using
the technique counts as a free action, however it uses
up a melee attack.

Yubisaki Kara (Finger Blast): This attack is extremely fast and powerful.
The user points his finger at his opponent and
a small beam of powerful red energy shoots from it.
This attack is very similar to Dodompa, however
it can be charged before releasing allowing for more
rays. Each
channel step DC made grants another blast.
This particular attack can pierce right through
the target, and as such receives a +2 inherent bonus to DR penetration.

Zanzoken:
The Zanzoken technique is the art of leaving behind
after-images.
This skill must be used in conjunction with
Blink. The
way it works is you move so fast that it leaves an
after-image of you in one place while you attack from
another. The
speed however is not what causes the images to stay;
your Ki produces this effect.
It takes a lot of practice to learn this
technique, but it becomes very useful in battle. A skilled Martial Artist can use several Zanzoken at once.
One after image can be left for every 4 spaces (20
ft) you move using the Blink technique. While
Zanzoken counts as a free action, it may only be used
once per round. When
used, the opponent may make a Spot check against your
Bluff check. If
the enemy beats you, he sees the after image for what
it truly is.

Technique Descriptions |
This is a list of techniques that have been created by the characters through out the events of the game. Any character may learn these techniques although they must have either viewed the technique being used or been taught it by the creator. For anyone other than the creator, the technique's DC is +10 more than what is listed below.

Empty Fist: By
concentrating ones energy just right they are able to
fuse the kinetic energy with there spirit energy,
allowing them to turn a melee attack into a ranged
one.

Kakuzen Ichijin (Razor Wind): This unique technique requires the user to set himself in a very specific and very very precise stance. Once in the stance, the user blasts forward at intense speeds, moving in a straight line a number of spaces as per the Blink technique. This counts as using Blink for that round. Behind the user, the speeds create a suction void, very similiar to the effects of a sonic boom. However, the user channels his ki to refine, focus and sharpen the void into a thin plane that follows him. Any opponent the user moves through is attacked by this, and due to its almost 2-dimensional sharpness it gains a +2 Damage Penetration. While Ki is used to make this attack, it is essentially physically based, and defenders use their physical damage reduction versus it.
|MT: 1 action; Damage: d10 per power point; Channel DC: 5, Range: AOE; Type: Attack Effect; Learn DC 45, Prerequisite; Dex 21+, Ki 23+, Energy Adept, Blink|

Shadow Void: This technique is the polar opposite of the Taiyoken technique. When activated it creates a sphere of darkness around the user, blinding everyone except him. The size of this sphere is equal to 10 ft radius. Duration is equal to the number of powerpoints channeled. The use of Taiyoken cancels this technique, and vice versa as well. By readying an action, warriors can attempt to counter the others technique with the opposing technique, much like sorcerors can counter other sorcerors spells.

| Meta-Ki Feat Descriptions |
|
Controlled Ki: Characters
with this feat are able to control to a greater degree
where their attacks land. Using this feat grants
the character double their Dexterity modifier
as a bonus to the attack roll. If the attack
misses, the character may spend 2 power points per
round to keep the attack in effect until they are able
to strike their opponent with it. A character
may attempt an attack roll with the controlled attack
once for every attack the character can make.
The effect dissipates when either the character looses
concentration or hits their opponent with the
attack. When using this technique, the base
channel DC step increases by 1 for missile attacks and
by 2 for beam attacks. This feat may only be
used in conjunction with missile attacks or beams.
|Prerequisites: Ki
21+, Any
missile attack or beam technique| |

Cooperative Ki: Characters
with this feat are able to pull together and simultaneously attack
with a single technique. This allows both
characters to channel Ki into the attack, thus yielding
a stronger and more powerful outcome. One person
is designated as the leader and makes the channel
check for the technique while the other uses the aid
another action and to bolster the leaders roll.
Then both power point cost is split evenly between the
two. Both characters must posses the Cooperative
Ki feat in order for this to work, however only the
leader need know the attack. This feat may not
be used in conjunction with power ups, maneuvers,
touch attacks, rays, or effects.
|Prerequisites: Ki
21+, Any
missile attack, beam, cone, or AOE technique| |
