Mannerisms: Dao is rather easy going be prefers to keep his distance. He connects easily with people but safeguards that he grows to attached to them. He never really shows what is on his mind. In fact he feels deeply responsible for what happens to his younger brother, Hai and the suffering he has caused. The feeling of guilt bears heavily on Dao's shoulders and he can never find inner peace before he has dealt with the monster he created. Dao has devoted himself to the task o tracking his brother down and end the string of sorrow he created.
Superstitions: That eating meat lowers your will against succumbing to the powers of darkness.
Social Pressures/Problems: Dao doesn't know how to share his feelings, let alone to truly let someone in. He shuns away when people show romantic interest in him.

Parents: Dao's parents got brutally murdered.
Siblings: Younger brother, Hai Wong
Rivals: Hai Wong
Enemies: Hai Wong

Weapons: Dao's sword is a single egded, straight bladed Katana like sword. Its hilt is covered in black silk strings and the black sheat is made out of pine wood. The sword doesn't have any elaborate decoration that would suggest that it is made by a master swordssmith for some fancy rich lord. However even Grandmaster Jiang Bing once said that it is one of the finest swords in all of Tu.

Skills:

An exceptional vegetarian cook: No one in the entirety of Tu knows how to prepare vegetables so well as Dao. In fact, he knows everything about any plants that are eatable and can spot them in the wild. With even the littlest of resources, Dao can still make the most delicious of vegetarian food.

Talented singer: Dao is a very talented baritone singer. He raised his voice on the street once and got instantly invited to the local lords residence to sing for him. In a way, this talent opens doors to the higher echelon of society.

Absolute control over his chi: Dao has absolute control over his chi. He can redirect it to any part of his body enhanching the body's natural ability to heal. Wounds that would leave lasting damage to tendons, muscles and organs are reduced to mere scars. Wounds that would be fatal over time still heal. However this is not some instant healing factor that can be used in combat. Healing is still a time consuming process that can last for weeks or even months.

Powers:

Twin claws of the heavenly tiger style: The twin claw style is a sword fighting style that utilizes the scabbard as an additional weapon. By channeling his chi into the scabbard, Dao can raise the hardness of his scabbard to the point it can be used to block attacks from even the best blade-masters. The basic stance of the twin claw style has the scabbard in a backwards grip in the left hand and the blade in the right hand. Due to the Ambidextrous nature of Dao he can effortlessly switch the blade and scabbard between his hands to confuse his opponents. The movements of the blade and scabbard are always in sync where 1 element is used to parry an attack and the other to slash or thrust at the opponent. The scabbard is primarily intended for blocking attacks but it can also used as a club.

Heavenly fang thrust – The heavenly fang thrust is the ultimate attack of the Style the Kirin of the West teaches. It requires absolute control over your chi and extremely precise timing. In fact, it was believed that only The grandmaster himself masted the attack. The heavenly fang thrust comes in three stances.

1st stance, straight thrust - Dao drops in a partial crouch, both knees bent, left arm drawn back and right arm extended forward. He grabs the hilt with his left hand and rests the tip of the blade on his right thumb. By concentrating his chi in his legs Dao instantly accelerates to extremely high speeds and thrusts his blade towards the opponents vital parts. The moment he initiates his thrust, Dao instantly refocuses his chi into his striking arm, maximizing the speed and power of the attack. In fact, this thrust is so strong, that it can effortlessly break through shields, armors and even brick walls.

2ns stance, down trust – Dao drops into a similar stance as with the heavenly fang trust but now has the tip of the sword pointing downwards. He launches himself into the air and using his chi to accelerate his landing and thrusts on his way down, attacking his opponent from above.

3th stance, upward trust – Dao drops into his partial crouch, now holding the sword with its tip pointed diagonally upwards. From their he launches himself into the air, trusting upwards. This way, he can attack opponents in mid-air

Current Story: When Dao was was young, both he and his younger brother, Hai got enlisted in the martial arts school of Grand master Jiang Bing. Through the years of intensive training, both brother proved to be exceptionally talented in the art of the sword and became fiercely competative towards eachother. However Dao managed to be always 1 step ahead of his younger brother. In every practice match Dao managed to win. Every victory over his younger brother was something that Dao rubbed into his face. Even weeks later Dao would tease his brother about that he kicked his ass again.

Suffering defeat and humiliation at the hands of his older brother, Hai started to look for different ways to surpass his rival and tormentor. He would venture out at night to study the ancient and forbidden books on Dark Chi. Through these books he learned the name of an infamous dark sourcerer, Guohzi Han. Han promessed Hai the powers to beat his brother. Han unlockd the Dark Chi within Hai and he soon found the power he needed to confront his brother once and for all.

Dao sensed the dark chi that was flowing through his younger brother. Both lyn drew their swords and assumed the stance for the heavenly fang thust, the ultimate technique of the white tiger school. As a cloud moved in front of the sun, both lyn charged forward with increadeble speed. With the tip of the blades pointed at eachother they initiated their thrusts at the same time.

Dao doesn't remember much of what happened after. Only waking up with his arms covered in bandages. Grandmaster Jiang Bing told him that his arms where severely cut up and that he should focus his chi on his healing if he ever wanted to hold a sword again. A month later a box got delevered to the school. The messenger said it was for Dao. On top of it was a letter, written in beautiful calegrapgy. “I thought you would feel lonely at a school for swordsmanship, now that you will never be able to hold a sword again. So I send you mon and dad to keep you company. Your beloved little brother Hai” The box contained the head of Dao's parents.

At that day, Dao learned an important lesson. You reap what you sow. Hai gave in to darkness because Dao constantly teased and belittled his younger brother for being the lesser swordsman of the two. What was just fun and games for Dao ended up physcical torture for his younger brother. Doa's behaviour had created a monster, now it was his responsibility to make sure Hai would not hurt more people.

Recently a rumour has reached Dao that Bandit lord Mura Masau has hired a Lyn swordsman who is said to be unbeatable.

@CelticSoldierschool will be fine.

An Oriental Story [Martial Arts Themed RP] - LF Force Master

@Holy SoldierFang is free to visit the school of the white tiger. Dao will welcome him ;)

@CelticSoldierI totally agree that Kitsune and Dao should travel together. Will be fun^^

An Oriental Story [Martial Arts Themed RP] - LF Force Master

@Holy Soldier True ^^

Are our characters able to sense a persons chi/ki and sense the difference between regular and dark? And should that be a written power or is that something martial artists simply can do?

I also asume that all classes have some basic knowledge about unarmed combat and are allowed to throw a punch or a kick but just nothing fancy as that is reserved for kung fu master.

I'll proberbly add some more special moves to my character but i am not sure what yet. Thinking about a chi based speed boost over short distance and maybe some form of aditional slashing attack.

An Oriental Story [Martial Arts Themed RP] - LF Force Master

Yay the ooc is here. I move my character as soon as i am home behind a pc :)

Maybe an idea to add a no multi class to the q&a? Two people who showed interest and kind off made the same mistake.
