ORIENTAL CHARACTERS

The following rules apply to the Far Eastern Emigrants to Chamwaedd.  They detail the applicable professions, skills and powers.

There are five types of martial artist each practicing their own “mother” style of ritual. They are: -

• Samurai / Ronin (Warrior / Loyal Protector / Outcast)
• Sohei (Basic Warrior Monk)
• Ashigaru (Common soldier/ Warrior)
• Ninja (Spy / Assassin)
• Kuge (Ruling class Fighters)

Each type of combatant has his own fighting style and therefore special moves.

Martial Arts work’s in much the same way as religion but there is no miracle cards used, no vocals voiced and CHI points are used instead of Sä.  To use a skill the martial artist will shout the name of the skill he is using at any time and mark up the respective CHI cost at the end of the encounter.  A Skill will cost its level in CHI to cast/use.

It should be noted that only one martial arts form can be studied at any one time, so if a player wishes to change styles he must perform the Style break off ritual.  Once performed he can still utilize the skills he learnt in his old form of fighting but he must start again at level one for his new fighting style.

The skills applicable to the Martial artist are: -

• CHI POINTS
• STYLE BREAK OFF RITUAL
