subculture that is the Martial Arts. You know how
to find schools for the martial arts in any nation or
city with time, you know of unusual happenings in

Expert: Specific Martial Art
A martial artist with this skill gives him
extensive knowledge about a particular martial art
style. This gives him knowledge in History (How
the Style came about, including major factors that
led to its development and personalties of the
style), Philosophy (Understanding of the
philosophical side of the style), Personalities
(Knowledge of the Major practitioners of the style,
at least by name or reputation), Schools
(Knowledge of different substyles and who the
trainers are), Symbols (Knowledge of the
distinctive symbols of styles and what they mean).
The Character can also gain information about
other Style by taking a -5 penalty to his skill roll.
However styles that are more common (Boxing,
Karate, or even Kung Fu in ancient China) could
be anywhere from a -5 to a -1 penalty. This dose
not allow the user to know the different substyles
or schools of the martial art, however.

Also if you beat the opponents roll you get a +2
to Accuracy for all Defense Rolls vs the opponent
for the entire combat, for every 10 rolled this way
you add another +1 to accuracy. If you fight this
opponent again and you make the roll you only get
a +1 to Accuracy not +2.
Also if you make your roll you are automatically
considered familiar with the opponents style (And
do not get the -3 Penalty for not having Expert:
Specific Martial Arts Style).
