It is simply there. I have even heard my masters debate the matter if demons and devil posses chi, which I believe they do.  Now Chi adds to to our physical, mental and spiritual capabilities.  For most, this enhancement is unfocused.  It happens in an uncontrolled manner.  Now, for people who follow disciplines such as mine,  we are able to control and focus that Chi in a controlled manner.  This allows us to amazing physical, mental and spiritual feats without the need for magics.  However, the focus for us is primarily internal.  There are no real external manifestations of the use of our Chi, though there are real results.    There are a few out there that are able to focus their Chi into an external manifestation.  These people are called psionicists.  They can use their chi in a manner similar to wizards or sorcerors, but instead of using the weave, they are using their own chi to cause whatever effect they are calling for.  Their discipline requires as much focus as mine does.  Does that answer your question?Hawkeye</blockquote>
