Editing Xia: Twelve Zodiac Stances (section)

=Stance of the Intelligent Rat=

''The Rat represents the triumph of intelligence over physicality. The philosophy of this stance is that you assess the situation, out-think the enemy and then use his own power against him. This stance is fluid and adaptive, sometimes with open hand, sometimes closed, sometimes using kicks and footwork, and sometimes concentrating on balance and arm movements.''

'''Cost:''' 3 Yang Chi and 3 Yin Chi to adopt this stance.

'''Keywords:''' ''Stance; Physical;''

'''Effect:''' While in this stance, you can ''Channel Trigrams'' at no chi cost, but only when attacking or defending against opponents that have a lower Mental trait than you.

'''Maintain:''' The stance is maintained through careful thought and inner discipline. If you take mental resilience damage for any reason, the stance ends.
