Yasuki Duelists (Bushi)

In the centuries since their absorption into the Crab Clan a handful of Yasuki have kept alive their tradition of dueling. Where once members of this family occasionally studied the way of the Crane now they find ways to combat it.

Technique Rank: 3
Path of Entry: Yasuki Taskmaster Rank 2
Path of Egress: Yasuki Taskmaster Rank 3

Technique: Way of the Black Crane
This technique counts as a Rank of the Yasuki Taskmaster School for all purposes. At the beginning of a skirmish you may make an opposed Awareness/Deceit(Intimidation) roll with one opponent. If successful reduce the opponent's initiative by the amount he failed the roll. When making the Awareness/Iaijutsu roll at the beginning of an iaijutsu duel your Agility, Reflexes, and Void are lowered by your School Rank, to a minimum of one. They return to normal immediately after your opponent makes his Choice of your Traits.
