	Hung Gar is much more politically radical than Wing Chung, rejecting not just Wushu authority, but all political authority not based on righteous Kung Fu. To Hung Gar, the ideal state would have no laws or police force. Rather, the weak and vulnerable would be protected by local martial arts heroes. Hung Gar practitioners consequently have little time for the police, government bureaucrats, and laws in general, though they scrupulously respect the rules of righteous martial arts societies. Their attitudes have caused a lot of friction with the other, more traditionally-minded, Wulin. On the other hand, their devotion to destroying Wushu has earned them a grudging respect.

	Though Hung Gar is a member of the Wing Chun faction, they are rivals with Wing Chun, and would rather see themselves as faction leaders. After all, Hung Gar’s descent from Shaolin is as direct at Wing Chun’s. What’s more, Hung Gar considers itself tougher than Wing Chin, though ironically, the harsh demands of Hung Gar training prevent it from having the numbers required to challenge Wing Chun for leadership. The rivalry between Hung Gar and Wing Chun dates back to a fight in a Hong Kong fish-market, in which Wing Chun master Ip Man and his student Wong Leung defeated an entire school of Hung Gar fighters, who were out to prove that Ip Man ~~isn’t~~ so tough.

 ''“Knock-knock-knock-knock-knock-knock…Wing Chun who?”—traditional.''
 Shaolin: Wing Chun idolizes the Shaolin. They know that the monks are often impractical and unworldly, but they represent everything that is good, kind, honorable, ordered, and traditional in the world. It was the Shaolin who gave them Kung Fu in the first place, and Wing Chun will never forget it.
 Wudang: Wing Chun thinks that the Wudang are wonderful. If the Shoalin represent traditional Buddhism, then Wudang represents traditional Daoism, and Wing Chun has a deep respect for both. Wing Chun’s close relationship with the Shaolin just makes them go out of their way to demonstrate that they also respect and honor Wudang.

 	Hung Gar, Jeet Kune Do, Kajukenbo and Kuntao fighters are more likely to sell out as individuals than as whole schools. There is always easy money for them in taking mercenary work or joining criminal martial arts gangs.

	Kajukenbo was developed in Hawaii in the 1940’s, as a fusion of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean styles. In 1954, Kajukenbo’s nature changed radically, after Hawaii became the site of an attempted demonic invasion, engineered by the Laughing Devils. Kajukenbo fighters, in conjunction with local Wudang agents, only just prevented the demonic armies from entering our dimension. Since then, Kajukenbo have been convinced that further demonic invasions are immanent. They expect the demons to take the form of evil spirits from Hawaiian, Chinese, Japanese, and other folklore. Regarded by many as conspiracy theorists, the stylists often turn to paranormal investigation or monster hunting, the better to protect humanity. They despise the Laughing Devils above all, and pursue them relentlessly when they can find them. Kajukenbo is something of an outsider in Wing Chun politics. They are always reliable when called on, but their non-Chinese origins bring cultural complications that set them apart. Like most styles with Japanese roots, Kajukenbo badly wants to see an end to the Karate Wars.		Kajukenbo was developed in Hawaii in the 1940’s, as a fusion of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean styles.
