Omnikage
By Sinestus

Omnikage is apparently the result of many forms coming together in one dojo. The style itself originate from a school in the United States which claims to have no master, yet claims to have no students either. The schools primary philosophy is that the concepts of student and master degrade the scholars, thus producing inequalities. Instead, everyone in attendance is referred to as an observer, and all are welcome to offer instruction or study under anyone offering training.
Omnikage is the current form taught. It focuses on the use of a flail style weapon used for striking, grappling and control techniques. Although the style works with any pole-and-chain style weapon, it is most effective with a weapon referred to as a 'grappling flail' (six foot pole, two foot chain, one foot pole/weight, deals 3D6 chain/2D6 staff). Students who have accepted this style often carry a collapsible version of the weapon (compresses to a 4 foot walking stick) which can be combat ready in two melee actions.
