	~~Supernatural Martial Arts~~		The study of the martial arts (MA) is a common endeavor across Creation. They are recognized everywhere as a useful skill to have in a violent world but also tool for attaining inner peace and tranquility. Parents sent their children off to study at famous MA schools and with reclusive MA practitioners who earn their life's coin through passing on their skills and knowledge to the next generation.

	~~Blah~~...		But there is no one form or school of MA. There are varieties across Creation, serving the needs and styles of people from all walks of life. One of the most important decisions a young MA practitioners will make is what style they wish to learn. Does one prefer a more offensive and reckless style? Or does one favor a more conservative style based on high percentage grapples and blocks? Each style has its own form of practice, and its own followers claiming that their style is the best. MA tournaments are a common form of entertainment around Creation, with top-ranked fighters becoming minor stars in their area and field.

			While MA are open to anyone with the time to learn and the coin to pay, the Exalted are able to leverage their native powers into much more potent forms of the MA style. So while there may be some similarities in the style and appearance of a form practiced by both mortals and Exalted, the latter form will be faster, stronger, and all around more spectacular.

			Every MA begins with a form. The form is a brief moment of meditation and maneuvering that the martial artist uses to prepare for using his powers. Each form as a unique blend of vocalizations and body movement which serves as a “tell” for others as to their style. A well-trained martial artist will surely devote some time and effort to learning the forms of as many styles as possible so as to be better prepared when meeting unknown foes. For mundane martial artists, assuming the form is a meditative practice, but for the Exalted it's both that and the first chance to “power up” their fighting techniques. It follows then that one of the restrictions of MA is that if the practitioner can't assume his form, he can't perform his style.

	Terrestrial Martial Arts are generally elemental-aspected, and thus have restrictions relating to those elements. For example many Air-aspected styles cannot be performed in armour. The Five Dragon Style uses only swords and spears aside from martial arts weapons. Generally, though, these sorts of restrictions are for flavour and grant no AP discount to the cost of Powers.
