Uncommon White Chi
Destiny Cost: 10


Type: Artful/Brutal (Weapons with a metal striking point only)
Default Critical Success: Disorient or Disarm

Chaotic Blade Style is the favored style of the Copper Devils sect. By aligning the fighter’s metal chi with that of their weapon and then manipulating it, they can make their weapon shift and turn, growing spikes, strands, or adopting stranger configurations. A group of Copper Devils wielding this style is terrifying to behold, seeming to be more demonic, otherworldly force than a band of mortal martial artists. However, this is purely psychological warfare on the part of the style’s creators’, it is not actually Corrupt. A recent invention, it is believed that the source of the style was based off of weapon controlling styles like Waves Like Water and living weapon styles such as Bloody Claws. Indeed, it is rumored that one of the founders of the Copper Devils was a Mao Shan exile.
