Three Winds Kempo
By Sinestus

Developed by the ancient immortal, Shen Meng, Three Winds is almost three separate styles. Unlike most techniques, Three Winds teaches each of the primary aspects of combat individually. Upon entering the school, the student must select which style they will begin with. As the name suggests, the style has three combat sets (or techniques): Offensive, Defensive, and Flowing. Once a student feels they have mastered the first techniques, they switch to another focus, combining the new knowledge with the old (but never advancing in the old techniques again).
In gaming terms, this breaks down with the style having three different sets of advancement bonuses, moves, and powers. When the character starts, they must select which set they are beginning with. Later in the game (no sooner than 3 levels later), the character can switch techniques, beginning as level one of the next style. During the transition, the martial artist spends a period of adjustment, where they begin modifying their philosophies. The transition from one technique to another takes 1 level of experience, during which they only gain the 'special moves' and bonuses of the new set and new powers appropriate for the switch. Once a student moves on, they cannot gain bonuses from the previous technique again.

Martial Arts Powers: (each set is restricted in where they may select powers from. All powers selected MUST reflect the focus they are learned in, thus, a student of Offense will not learn a power which grants no bonus to strike or penalizes strike bonuses in any way, a student of defense will not learn anything which increases strike bonuses or decreases parry bonuses, etc.. Categories are listed in order of recommendation for selection, greatest to least.) Upon gaining the technique, select two powers from the proper category.
Offensive : Specialty Katas, Martial Arts Techniques, or Body Hardening
Defensive : Body Hardening, Specialty Katas, or Martial Arts Techniques
