Fu / Paths / Healthy Tiger

Tiger stylists have schismed numerous times, as benefits such violative souls, and the old path is now divided into several. This is the healing tiger, the wise guardian and potent healer. There also exists the RagingBeast and VengefulClaw, both distantly related but much more combative.

Flow Restoration

Fu: 0, Shot: 1

Release a subject affected by the Fu power Point Blockage from paralysis as well as other forms of paralysis or chi-flow impairment that affects the body, such as the Blast effects Paralysis. You must be able to touch subject.

Corners of the Mouth

Fu: 0, Shot: 1

Make a wisecrack, quotation or other wise remark. A target within Fu meters gains 1 Fu point (this can be yourself). Excess Fu points fade at the end of the sequence. This can be done at any time, even out of sequence.

A particular character can only receive extra Fu from one master's use of Corners of the Mouth in one sequence; several competing masters' Fu only cause confusion. Targets may refuse the extra Fu.

Healing Chi

Fu: X, Shot: 3

Transfer chi and life force to another by touch. Your patient recovers WoundPoints equal to the Fu points you spend. You can only do this during a fight, but it does not prevent further healing. If used between fights, this costs you a Fortune point. See Supernatural Healing.

Point Blockage

Fu: 5, Shot: 3

Strike an opponent in unarmed combat in such a manner as to block the flow of chi through his body and paralyze him.

You must make a successful MartialArts attack. Damage is your Fu plus the Outcome soaked by the target's Willpower. If he takes any damage, he also loses three shots. If the loss matches the Chi, he is paralyzed.

The victim retains all of his senses while paralyzed. If attacked he breaks the paralysis, but may only use his Agility for Dodgeagainst the attack that broke the paralysis. If an unseen attacker or supposed friend makes that first attack, his Dodge is zero because of surprise.

At the end of each Sequence of paralysis, or every hour out of combat, he may make an Willpower roll against your Fu to break free. Medicine skill and healing schticks can substitute.

Shadowfist

Fu: 8, Shot: 3

Strike an opponent barehanded. Add the Outcome to your Fu and subtract the target's Chi. Opponent's Chi attributes are each reduced by the result for the rest of the session.

Any points spent by the victim are assumed to come from those lost, so his new Chi values becomes the upper limit on remaining Fu, Magic and Fortune points.

Storm of the Tiger

Fu: X, Shot: 0

X is any amount of Fu you elect to spend. Add X twice to the Damage of a bare-handed strike. X may not be higher than your attack Outcome.
