====== Ki ====== Ki is an advanced attribute whose skills mostly involve different forms which change how much damage skills can do or increase the odds of your skills triggering. Only one form can be active at once. Many Ki skills cost stamina to use, and may have multiple possible effects. [[character:jewel|Jewel]] chooses Ki as her advanced attribute at level 10. [[character:yui|Yui]] will also train in Ki as a secondary advanced attribute. ===== Unlocking ===== The [[character:player_created_character|player character]] needs to ask [[character:information_broker|Aesop]] about Sharpening the Mind for $200. After reaching level 10, the [[character:player_created_character|player character]] can ask [[character:information_broker|Aesop]] about Martial Arts for $2500. The Meditate option changes to the [[day:activities:dojo|Dojo]], and [[character:suzume#meditation|Suzume]] will now train you in Ki as well as [[attribute:perception|Perception]]. ===== Skills ===== ^ Ki ^ Skill ^ Tactic ^ Description ^ | 1 | Shredding Palm | Hurt | Upgrades [[attribute:power|Shove]], adding possibility of destroying tops. | | 3 | Water Form | Manipulation | User adopts [[mechanic:status_effects|Water Stance]], increasing counter rate while lowering [[attribute:power|Power]] by 2 points. | | 6 | Flash Step | Positioning | Requires (but does not cost) 15 [[mechanic:stamina_arousal_and_mojo|mojo]].
