Feng Shui
Fire - Pao
/ \
Wood-Peng Earth - Heng
\ /
Water - Tzuan Metal - Pi
Fire defeats metal, metal defeats wood, wood defeats earth, earth defeats water, water defeats fire. This creates a pentagram when the links are drawn. Magic is simple in terms of levels. Each magic has a level 1, 2, and 3. When all magics are aquired and mastered, then they can be used to counter each other.
In an example of a magic fight, say Tori has a level one fire spell and neo has a level one metal spell, Tori's magic would counter neo's and do half its normal damage. Neo would need a level two metal spell just to cancel out the attack, and a level three to overcome Tori's spell.
You may aquire a new magic level much like how you would aquire a new sword skill. When you reach the requirements and you are about to recieve your 10th loss, you can unlock the new level as a desperation counter. However, this depletes your stamina and you are left open for the next attack if the opponent survives. As with the sword skills you may only unlock a new level one time on your 10th fight. You may not keep fighting your 10th loss over and over to gain new techniques, you have to wait for the next multiple of 10.
