Takeshi

This ability can only be learned by lovers who argue and feud bitterly. The underlying theory and the steps demand passion, anger, and an intimate awareness of the other's flaws and weaknesses. When two characters who meet this description both have this ability, they can attack on the same round, at the same time, imposing a −2d10 penalty to any Counter roll, making a single attack roll but two damage rolls.

This Internal Arts style boosts your thinking faculties to inhuman levels. Every morning, you must meditate for 30 minutes. Roll Meditation TN 5. On a success, you gain a +1d10 bonus to all Knowledge and Mental rolls until you next sleep. On a failure, you must wait until the following morning to meditate again. You must abstain from alcohol to use this ability.

Placing both hands on the back of an ally, you can cleanse defilements and heal Wounds. Roll Internal Arts TN 8. On a success, your ally is cured of any poison effects, and regains 1 Wound.

Your use of needles and threads is unrivalled. Whenever you attack with needles and threads, you do 1d10 damage per character level (up to 9d10). In addition, if anyone is tethered to your threads, as a move you can rip out the needles, causing a Wound that does 3d10 damage.

After drinking your fill of sake, you unleash deadly attacks. When drunk on sake, you gain +1d10 to all Combat and Physical skills, and −1 to all Mental and Knowledge skills.
