Artful (Talons only)<BR>


<B>Crits:</B> Disarm, Knockback


<B>1: Above the Clouds:</B> You stand apart from your enemies, beating back their attacks with sharp reproofs of the blade.  For the round, add your Gold chi modifier to your Strike for the purpose of parries only.


<B>2: Falling from the Cliff:</B> You impose your own decisions regarding velocity on your opponents.  For the round, your attacks cause Knockback on a successful hit.  This forced motion is hard to resist! For each result die on your attack against an opponent, he must spend 1 additional chi to activate Lightfoot or Weightfoot techniques this round.


<B>3: Avalanche:</B> With your sheer mental presence, you constrict your opponent's body.  This technique can be used two ways.  As a free action, you may entangle his limbs, subtracting your Gold chi modifier from all his defensive rolls that round.  As a full action, you may seize his heart and windpipe, preventing breath.  Make a Confidence roll, adding your Gold chi modifier; your opponent opposes this with a Hardiness roll.  You do one die of damage for each result die; this attack ignores armor, and Disorients on a Critical Success!


<B>4: Above the Stars:</B> Further separating yourself from the fray, your maneuvers become pointed, aloof, and inevitable.  Add your Gold Chi modifier to your Strike for the round; also, subtract it from any penalties imposed on your Strike this round.  Channel: 2 Any (to continue this technique for another round).


<B>5: Lord Eagle Directs the Assault:</B> As a full action, you point your talon at a foe and designate him as the chosen target; golden tendrils flash out to gently weave about him.  While this technique is active, all your allies within ten times your Favored Chi in yards receive your Gold Chi modifier to their Strike (or Base Value) and Damage when attacking or defending against that target.  This technique continues as long as you spend a full action each round to maintain it; it fails immediately when you take any other full action.  You do not benefit from this technique.
