[QUOTE="Steampunkette, post: 8345005, member: 6796468"] So Rangers in A5e get Combat Maneuvers from the following traditions: Biting Zephyr Mist and Shade Razor's Edge Spirited Steed Unending Wheel I think we could reasonably create "Schools" or "Sources" for these fighting styles, and the rest of the Combat Traditions, in the world itself. [B]Adamant Mountain:[/B] A fighting style of Giant Warriors who ignore harm and batter enemies back, taught primarily in Musarra by Minotaur practitioners. [B]Biting Zephyr:[/B] An archery-centric fighting style, known pretty much everywhere but particularly common in Imba and Gresia. [B]Mirror's Glint:[/B] Reading your foe's movements before they're complete to fight them. Taught primarily in a Ludus or to Wealthy people. [B]Mist and Shade: [/B]Sneaky Fighting style which includes picking pockets mid-fight. Invented in Achelb, spread outward among Thieves. [B]Rapid Current: [/B]Hit and run tactics. Very popular among the Raiders of Annam and Il'sha-ah in general. [B]Razor's Edge: [/B]A fencing fighting style, created in Neasc but gaining in popularity, particularly in places with Gladiatorial arenas. [B]Sanguine Knot: [/B]Shield-Fighting with allies primarily comes from Ellenici and Imba, who use two different styles to achieve the same goal. [B]Spirited Steed: [/B]Invented by the Kyrani Horselords, jousting, archery, and swordsmanship on horseback is a war tactic and common exhibition. [B]Tempered Iron: [/B]Born in Il'sha-ah, the Tempered Iron fighting style focuses on taking down Arcanists with brutal efficiency to contain their corruption. [B]Tooth and Claw: [/B]With it's roots in Pre-History, Tooth and Claw is a fighting style that can never truly be formalized. It's suggested that Druids initially created the style to honor the Beast, but the truth is lost to history. [B]Unending Wheel: [/B]Focus and Control are the tenets of the Unending Wheel. A style born in Musarra in honor of Isra, controlling yourself allows you to control your opponent, as well. And now you can kind of narrow down a Ranger's (Or any other Martial character's) origins by what sort of styles they use. [/QUOTE]
