Karumi-Jutsu
Utilizing their mastery over their chi, a martial artist can tap into the "natural" chi of their surroundings and provide "buyancy" to themsleves - in effect, the martial artist can maniulate their body weight. The martial artist can reduce their weight to 15% of its original amount which creates several beneficial results.
- Falling: The character reduces falling damage to 1 pt. per damage die.
- Jumping: The character can jump up to 2 times their normal distance.
- Climbing: If the character has the skill Climb Walls, they receive a +50% to their skill. If they do not have the skill, they can use Climb Walls at a base 30%.
- Tread lightly: The character can walk across very fragile surfaces with no risk of damage (like tea cups).
This ability only works on the physical body of the individual and not on any possessions (standard clothing is considered of negligable weight, however, and can be worn while recieving the benefits of the power) and can perform no attacks while using this power.
The duration of the power is indefinite (as long as focus holds - Wisdom check required if the character is adversly affected or shocked. Taking damage is considered and adverse affect!), but the character may only move half their standard movement per round.
