[QUOTE="Sound of Azure, post: 3275741, member: 40749"] [COLOR=Red]This class feature will be granted at 1st level, improving upon and expanding a Crimson Sakura's abilities. At present, they are their own mechanic seperate to Bardic Music, Geisha Performance, and Ki Powers, but the uses per day can be used to power any of these abilities. I deliberately reduced the times per day of the ability, due to its flexibility for its intended Ninja/Geisha multiclass. I thought it should be important to create a new mechanic for those Crimson Sakura that have neither Ninja or Bard/Geisha levels, while still expanding the options of those classes. Breath of the Lotus would be considered one of these powers, at present.[/COLOR] [B]Shadow Arts: [/B] Crimson Sakura learn to manipulate their [I]Ki[/I] to gain several unique and wondrous powers. These abilities are functionally similar to a Ninja's Ki Power as described in [I]Complete Adventurer[/I]. A Crimson Sakura may use Shadow Arts once per [COLOR=Red]two[/COLOR] class levels. Uses of Shadow Arts may also be used for a ninja's Ki Power, a Geisha's Performance ability, or a Bard's Bardic Music class feature. [B]Breath of the Lotus (Su):[/B] see above [U][B]Potential abilities:[/B][/U] [B]Poison Lotus (Su): [/B] As the Poison spell, usable after using Breath of the Lotus.
