PLAYER PLOT! EVERYBODY WAS KUNG-FU FIGHTING

[amonfire]

Your local pinko fantasy communist, Amon, has taken it upon himself to start taking on students in the ancient technique of ~CHI BLOCKING~ Which is in essence a discipline of martial arts (shrouded in mystery - like you do) that emphasises on attacking a persons' line of chi (read: energy, life force, applied phlebotinum, et al.) Pressure points. You'll be learning how to take jabs at a person's pressure points to temporally sever voluntary muscular function in a localized region that usually effects an entire limb or joint. So just go with it. The bulk of these lessons would be Amon teaching those without any outstanding abilities to defend themselves through supervised training.

(translation: non-benders and regulars preferred NO BOURGEOIS AND SUPERMEN)

CHI BLOCKING IN ACTION

STUDENT BODY AND POSSIBLE TEACHER-STUDENTS

As of right now OOC'ly I can take up to around ten students at a time, but can hand wave a few private lessons (lemme teach you how a real pro bends ahur). But to allow for more novitiates I will make an OOC registry for possible assistant instructors. Preferably anyone already adept at martial arts that can be taught to make the transition from throwing punches to making surgically accurate strikes to the human body easier.

Below are forms for both.

FOR STUDENTS
<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Time Zone:</b> <B>OOC Contact:</b> AIM, plurk, or journal to PM(optional) <b>Handwaved or IC lessons preferred?:</b>

FOR TEACHER STUDENTS
<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Time Zone:</b> <B>OOC Contact:</b> AIM, plurk, or journal to PM(optional) <b>Handwaved or IC meeting preferred?:</b> <b>Any experience with martial arts or its ilk:</b>

OOC Contact: Journal to PM, but if you need/want me by AIM, we can make that work.
Handwaved or IC lessons preferred?: You know we have to have one or two IC lessons. ;) Probably most can be handwaved, though.

Yeah, this will be epic.

[amonfire]

except when everyone's powers turn off

which is exactly when the bulk of this is going on

good luck, toph :']

[dustonmyfeet]

Yeah, man, that's not ominous or creepy. ;P

Toph may put off her lessons until afterward.

[amonfire]

YOU FOR ALL HIS SHIT

he's probably not going to actively be a dick to someone who is blind without their special power crutch

but yeah probably a good idea to wait until you can 'see' again

[dustonmyfeet]

Gotta keep an eye -- er -- foot on the enemy. ;P

Foot sounds so much better anyway in Toph's mind.

("Probably not actively." I can't even touch that. XD)
