''"The Tao Master is not some cloistered hermit who shies away from human contact. The Tao Master celebrates his sexuality, and understands that sex is the exchange of nourishing Yang and nurturing Yin. You may mock, but to the master of Tao, sex is just one more path to the mastery of Chi."''

=Overview=

This page is a '''Lore Sheet''' for the '''Thousand Kisses Technique''', a set of nine '''Heart Secrets''' that unlock chi secrets through sexual intercourse.

Note that for you to gain any benefit from this Lore Sheet, you should buy ''Seductive Mien Posture'' as your first secret.

These techniques can only be used for '''social conflict''', for social attacks and social defences.
<br><br>
==Sexual Prerequisites==

This Lore Sheet introduces a new concept - '''Sexual Prerequisites.'''

Before you acquire a kung fu secret with a ''Sexual Prerequisite'' you must first have sexual intercourse with a target individual of the noted characteristics. For the purposes of this Lore Sheet, sexual intercourse means consensual and intimate physical activity that includes at least one orgasm for each participant.

Any one sexual encounter can only count as a sexual prerequisite for ONE secret technique from this Lore Sheet. However, you can use multiple encounters with the same partner to qualify for different techniques.
<br><br>

==Lore Sheet Limitation==

All the powers on this sheet have the same limitations.

First, you only gain the effects listed against human enemies, or non-humans whose sexual preferences include human forms.

Secondly, you must have at least one heterosexual encounter for this power to affect people of the opposite gender.

Third, you must have at least one homosexual encounter for this power to affect people of the same gender.

Fourth, you must have at least one sexual encounter with a genderless person for this power to affect genderless people.

However, it's worth specifically noting that the effects are not limited to conflicts geared towards seduction - they can apply to social conflicts of any sort, so long as they are approached in a seductive manner.

=Seductive Mien Posture=

''Sexuality is control. Sexuality is submission. Sexuality is force. Sexuality is subtlety. For those who embrace the dualistic forces behind sexuality, there is great strength and wisdom to be found. A true master of his or her sexual self will be an adept of social intercourse of all sorts.''

'''Sexual Prerequisite:''' A consenting human whose total Chi is within 20% difference of your own total Chi.

'''Cost:''' 3 Yang Chi and 3 Yin Chi to adopt this posture.

'''Keywords:''' ''Posture; Social;''

'''Effect:''' By default, no effect.

'''Maintain:''' The posture can only be maintained for as long as you maintain behaviour that could be described as seductive, charming or friendly. If you start physically attacking people, for example, the posture ends.

=Endless Conquests of the Sexual Master=

''By the principle of Thunder, seduction is about your score. Sleep with as many as you can, and as many at once as you can!''

'''Sexual Prerequisite:''' A group of ten different consenting human females, each of whom's Yin Chi is within 40% difference of your own Yang Chi. You can acheve this prerequisite over several encounters, but with no less than three partners (plus yourself) in each encounter, and with a minimum of ten different partners in total. The presence of additional partners who don't meet the prerequisite doesn't count towards or against this goal. Also, you must ensure that you are the first to orgasm within the group in each encounter.

'''Cost:''' None.

'''Keywords:''' ''Modifier; Social; Attack;''

'''Effect:''' When you make additional social attacks in your ''Seductive Mien Posture'', any Heaven, Fire or Wind Channelling from the first attack re-applies at no chi cost to all remaining attacks you make that turn, unless those attacks have the ''graceless'' keyword.
<br><br>

=Unrelenting Endurance of the Sexual Partner=

''By the principle of Mountain, sex is about endurance. If you can keep your composure and make sure that you are the last to orgasm, then everyone is happy.''

'''Sexual Prerequisite:''' A group of ten consenting human males, each of whom's Yang Chi is within 40% difference of your own Yin Chi. You can acheve this prerequisite over several encounters, but with no less than three partners (plus yourself) in each encounter.

'''Effect:''' When you defend against more than one social attack per round in your ''Seductive Mien Posture'', any Earth, Water or Mist Channelling from the first attack since the end of your last turn re-applies at no chi cost to all remaining attacks made against you till the start of your next turn.
