Smokefighting - (Exclusive)
By Sinestus

Who said smoking was bad for you.... According to some, after years of chain smoking, quitting, and chain smoking again, one can attain harmony with the universe. Smokefighting is the equivalent of Chi Mastery meets Tobacco Addiction. Most masters of this style are fairly iffy in a fight, unless they already had two to four smokes, and are currently enjoying another. By enhancing the natural smoke produced by their habit, the Smokefighter is capable of producing astounding effects, unfortunately, each time they use one of their Chi powers, they burn up half their cigarette (except for Chi Spark/light), and thus their next action is usually to light up another smoke (takes two actions, during which the smokefighter can only dodge).
Although not inherently evil, Smokefighting does promote the use of Negative Chi skills, and sees nothing wrong with using any advantage to its full extent.

Special Smokefighting Powers: (Note: Only one Smokefighting Power may be used each melee.)

Chi Fire Flare - briefly causes a small fire to flare up dealing 2D4 to 2D6 damage pending on size. Usually used on a lit cigarette in hand for a powerful attack. Costs four Chi. Range: Two foot flame.

Chi Spark/light - only allows the Smokefighter to ignite a cigarette without a lighter, takes one action. Costs two Chi/light.

Fire Spit - A Chi extension allowing the Smokefighter to 'spit' flaming ash into a target's face. Takes two actions, Range: Five feet + one foot every three levels. deals 1D4 damage, but will ignite combustibles, and a successful shot to the face will blind for 1D4 melees. Costs: Ten Chi.

Blinding Cloud - more accurate than the Fire Spit. Creates a Chi cloud which latches onto the target's face (cannot be parried, -4 to dodge). Imposes Blindness penalties, and 'jams' Chi Awareness while active. Costs Two Chi/melee to maintain, and no other powers may be used while active.

Disruptive Chi Cloud - Sprays to coat the entire body, takes three actions (cannot be parried, -4 to dodge). Disrupts/cancels any Chi based power currently being used by the victim, and drains Half their remaining Chi each melee until the victim has Negative Chi or Zero Chi. Costs five Chi to generate.

Choking Chi Cloud - Almost an automatic stun, may be used as a defense (full parry bonus), or offence (cannot be parried, -3 to dodge). Successful strike requires victim/target roll Save vs. Magic/Chi Influence. Fail to save disrupts and currently in-use Chi based powers, Specialty Katas, etc... Victims loose half their actions to hacking/coughing, and suffer a -4 to all combat actions for the duration. Costs five chi to activate, two Chi/melee to maintain (cannot be maintained if used as defense, just lasts remainder of the melee). Each successive melee victim may attempt another save @ -1. A Roll of one on any of the saves knocks the victim out.
