'''Repentant Storm (Storm Phoenix)'''

'''Form Aspect:''' Often seen as a feminine style even among the Phoenix styles for its grace and reliance on maneuverability, Storm Phoenix stylists are nevertheless found among men, women, and eunuchs. Acrobatic strikes and dodges flow into low sweeps
and quick counters to create a fluid style with its own unique rhythm. Practitioners rarely stand still, instead using movement to enhance attack and defense, as well as luring opponents into making crucial errors.

'''Techniques:'''

''Storm Rumbles in Distance:'' Make a Fight or Athletics roll with a +2 bonus to create an advantage based on controlling or redirecting momentum. If you move at least 1 zone as part of this action, or your opponent has moved at least 1 zone as part of their last action, gain a +3 bonus instead.

''Storm Flows Around Mountain:'' If a target uses Full Defense in combat against you, gain a +2 bonus to your next attack against them. You gain
this bonus regardless of whether their Full Defense succeeds or not.

''Phoenix Beats its wings:'' If you defend with style, you may gain an ''Off Balance'' advantage on the target, with a free invocation instead of a boost.

''Phoenix Laughs at the Sun:'' If you succeed at an Overcome roll using Athletics or Fight with style, you may create a situation aspect with a free invocation instead of taking a boost.

''Phoenix Calls to Heaven:'' You may use Chi instead of Physique to determine extra stress boxes and consequences. This is in addition to the Armor bonus from having high Chi. If Chi and Physique are the same rating, you may instead reduce physical stress taken by 2 shifts once per session.

===Stunts:===
''Spirit Song:'' +2 When using Rapport to Create an Advantage regarding Passions

''Lightfoot Prodigy:'' Athletics is considered 2 rungs higher (Superb) for purposes of Movement between Zones.

===Phases:===

'''First Phase:'''  ''Voice of Pure Beauty''
Wu Xian was a singer and dancer for the Lotus Sky Society, a rising star who was already getting to pick and choose her roles and assignments, but then General of Shadows Mountain Ox slew the entire troupe. She escaped only because, by luck (or maybe Fate) she was entertaining the wife of a high minister, and even the General of Shadows would not readily anger that family.


'''Second Phase:'''  ''Master Radiance's Legacy.''
She fled, with some assistance, and found old master Radiance, who has kept her hidden as he trained her voice and dance into weapons as powerful as any steel. But the time has come for her to make her way again in the world, and if Destiny allows, to avenge herself on the General of Shadows.

Wu Xian didn't learn of it until she left, but Master Radiance wasn't always as she found him, and those he trained before her are corrupt. In addition to her vengeance, he has asked her to cleanse his Legacy.
