More Advanced Atemi Abilities

Mantisking · Unread post by **Mantisking** » Wed Sep 15, 2004 7:24 pm

I can't remember if I've posted these before, so here they are.

Advanced Healing Atemi: This ability may be used to reverse the effects of a Deathblow, or the Advanced Atemi Ability: Kula Marmman. The character has also become skilled enough to stop bleeding by touching pressure points. If applied with two (2) Melee Rounds (30 seconds) after a successful Deathblow or Kula Marmman attack, the character may revive the dying person and prevent their death. This ability takes four (4) Melee Rounds (1 Minute) to apply fully and correctly. It only takes one (1) Melee Attack to stop blood loss. Pre-Requisite: Duatsu (Healing Atemi).

_____ Yuan Tien Hsueh (Cause Fatigue Atemi): This atemi point, when activated, causes fatigue poisons to be released into the body. It's a slow process, so this ability isn't really effective during combat. The attacker must make a Strike roll of Natural 13 or better. If successful, the effects then take 1D10 minutes to begin. For 1D4 hours, target is -2 (-10%) to all actions due to fatigue.

Kai Men Tien Hsueh (Initiate Coma Heavenly Knowledge): This is a vile but, thankfully, little known ability. When the proper atemi points are activated it causes the target to fall into a coma state. This lasts for 2D4 days! Once a successful attack has been made, it takes 4D6 hours for the coma to start. Pre-Requisite: Kyosho (Neural Atemi).

Kula Marmmam (Most Vital Spot): This attack causes the heart to stop. It must be the first and only attack of the Melee Round, and the character must roll a Natural 18 or better to Strike. If successful the defender dies. The defender may Parry or Dodge this attack. If the defender is unsuccessful in Parrying or Dodging this attack, then they may try to Roll with Punch/Fall/Impact. If this is successful then the defender is not killed, but their current S.D.C. and Hit Points are reduced by half.

Revision
Advanced Atemi Ability
Kai Men Tien Hsueh (Initiate Coma Heavenly Knowledge): This is a vile but, thankfully, little known ability. When the proper atemi points are activated it causes the target to eventually fall into a coma state. This lasts for 2D4 days! Once a successful attack has been made, it takes 4D6 hours for the coma to start. Only a Fingertip Attack can be used for this ability. See page 14 of N&S (Recovering From a Coma) for rules on how to escape a coma. Pre-Requisite: Kyosho (Neural Atemi).

Thank you. I made a reply to the stuff you posted a while ago. It's probably on the second page by now.

Very Special Atemi
The martial artist must make three successful strikes to the head at -6 to strike. The first two strikes have no effect but the third strike renders the victim to an autistic state* of mind until the effect can be reversed with healing atemi.

*all combat skills are at -10 but all science and technical skills which do not require a hands on approach are at +40%, the victim's MA is also reduced to 2d4.

Who's special?

I like the FoTNSishness of some of that.

Now all it needs is one that allows you enough time to deliver a cool line like "you've got 4 steps left in you, then your lungs will fill up with blood, and you will drown" before they die.

Just because I can't resist anymore...

Five Point Finger Open Palm Exploding Head Technique
This is one of the least known and most deadly martial arts techniques. The technique is strangely named, because this atemni uses nither fingers or palm. Instead one strikes at the body with a clenched fist. To use, you must roll a natural 19 or 20. if sucessful, the head will explode. The user of this art can dictate a time limit before the head actually explodes, allowing time for a witty line before his foe dies in a gorey mess.

Brass Horse: The character has studied nerve and meridian charts for animals. This ability's name is a play on the "Brass Man" a learning tool for atemi use. Bonuses: All Atemi Abilities are now able to be used on animals.

I had to, it was a little too brutal without the target number.

Except the coma doesn't kick in immediately. The Vulcan Nerve Pinch is closer to a Super Paralysis Atemi.

Chi Healing?
