Valderian Jujitsu
By Sinestus

Designed to end combat in a basic, and simple method, Valderian Jujitsu is easily seen as a less lethal form of Multi-Fracto. Instead of learning the methods for breaking bones without leaving marks, the scholars of V.J. learn to leave painfully crippling welts. Although the martial artist can deal an incredible amount of damage, they usually avoid killing. Generally, once an opponent is knocked unconscious, they are bound or left alone.

Pain Throw - once in a successful lock, can force the victim to break the limb (escape the lock) or simply suffer the Save vs. Pain from escaping the lock (but the limb is not broken). Those who are released after suffering from this technique (Suffer pain but no break), suffer half the 'broken limb' penalties for 1D4 hours.

Pain Strikes - All attacks are usually pulled. A successful natural strike (with a pulled punch) equaling or above the pain score may leave a mark. When the roll is high enough, the victim must Save vs. Pain twice, first roll is normal Save vs. Pain, second is to determine if a mark is left (failure=mark). The second Save vs. Pain only gets bonuses from P.E.. If a mark is left, any strikes to that area will require another Save vs. Pain. Such Pain Strikes (pulled strikes or striking a welt/mark) will only cause Stun Penalties and the loss of one action for the first three successes (thus the first three times the opponent suffers, they suffer cumulative penalties). Each successive time after the third, if the Save vs. Pain fails, the target is knocked out for 1D4 minutes. Pulled Strike Pain attacks may be balanced/negated with a successful Roll or Breakfall.
Once per melee (+1 every five levels), the martial artist can Call a Pain Strike. This is targeted, and if the strike is successful, it deals no damage, just causes the Pain penalties. A Critical Strike with the called attack negated the opponent's chance to Roll with impact or Save vs. Pain/Welt (a mark is automatically left)
Striking a welt left from a pain strike is a called shot (13+ with bonuses).
