\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kai Mastery (2):<\/strong> Your control and discipline has imbued your spirit. Your Spirit (Kai) Point pool is now equal to double your Acumen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kai Fist (1, prerequisite Kai Mastery):<\/strong> You imbue your energy into your martial arts. Your unarmed strikes gain lethal 1d6+1 damage and gain the Bludgeoning special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kai Protection (1, prerequisite Kai Mastery):<\/strong> You use 2 kai to form a protective force that flows over your skin. It gives you 1 AV, but you must not be impeded by any other armor. You can spend 2 more Kai to gain 1 AV up to AV 4. This effect lasts 8 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kai Dodge (1, prerequisite Kai Mastery):<\/strong> Dodging melee attacks is not difficult. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kai Speed (1, prerequisite Kai Fist):<\/strong> Once per round, you may spend 1 kai to attack another time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Focused Strike (1, prerequisite Kai Speed):<\/strong> Your unarmed strikes can cause Impaling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iron Fist (1, prerequisite Focused Strike):<\/strong> Your unarmed strikes become 2d6+2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unsoiled Body (1, prerequisite Pure Body):<\/strong> You may spend 2 kai to cleanse yourself of any natural or magical disease. This takes 1 hour of meditation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Floating Step (1, prerequisite Kai Speed):<\/strong> As a free action, you may spend 1 kai to move double your normal speed for a round. Your feet do not touch the ground when you do this, but you must have solid or liquid matter beneath you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fluttering Jump (1, prerequisite Floating Step):<\/strong> You may spend 1 kai to triple your jump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lethal Hand (1, prerequisite Focused Strike): <\/strong>You may spend 3 kai to add an additional 3d6+3 damage to a successful unarmed strike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
