Hopping Frecracker Evasion, it's a hopping defence that can move you out of melee range very quickly. It's the archetypal Flurry-breaker. Also Smouldering Karma Strike in Dodge.vinom said:Is there anyway to move as part of a counterattack, to evade the rest of a melee/martial arts flurry?
No, just the Ability.vinom said:Does the Prodigy Martial Arts Merit reduce the cost of Martial Arts Charms?

For Dragon-Bloods, these are probably still your best bets, but you'll need to get more imaginative (stunt dice!) with how you use them. Maybe you evade into melee range with them, as it is hard to shoot you with a bow when you are butt-up against them. That or take some cover: bushes, pillars, whatever is around, even if they still shoot at you you'll get cover-bonuses that way.
Also, to reference back to you being a DB in a Celestial party. The best thing you have is legitimacy and Jade. Terrestrials are the respected heroes of most of Creation, so anywhere with civilization, you can easily be the public face of the party. Also, the most likely Magical Material to be found is Jade, which makes it easy for you to collect new artifacts, while for others to use the Jade costs them double the Attunement. Use and abuse this small right whenever possible. Take the weapons of your foes, as if they lose they are unfit to wield them. Then either donate them whole or have a crafter break them into parts for big bucks or huge favors throughout the land, making you the most legitimate of the party. After all, everyone else is evil Anathema to most folks, so don't let them forget that, the other PCs or the ST.
Form-type Charms can only be applied one at a time. Activating one Form-type cancels all the effects of another previously-activated form Charm.vinom said:Can I use two or more form charms at once?
Here you can find Terrestrial Martial Arts styles,, both official and fan-created. Here you can find Celestial Styles, although please note that to use a Celestial style a DB must use Enlightenment Charms such as the Tiger and Bear Awareness/Unity, the Walker-Among-Irises Awareness/Iris-Bulb Discourse or the Immaculate Order's Moment of Daana'd/Pasiap's Humility.vinom said:Also, is there a master list of martial arts styles and where to find them?
Is that only in that style or in all styles, and is that cost lowered any by having Martial Arts Favored?Additionally' date=' learning an Celestial style requires a massive investment of time and experience as well as the fact that learning [b']any[/b] Terrestrial style increases the experience cost by one per Terrestrial M/A Charm known.

If I'm not mistaken, if you try to use a SMA as a DB you will blow up. ^^vinom said:That's all good to know... would that or something similar apply if I attempt to learn Sidereal Martial Arts?
So basically, by trying to learn Sidereal MA as a Terrestrial, you'll blow up, or some other messy, sticky end.Under no circumstances can a Terrestrial Exalt learn a Sidereal martial art. The Sidereals have tried on numerous occasions . . {but only} . . . find some interesting (if impractical) ways to kill Terrestrial Exalted, though.
Good luck with that. You might want to read up on the sidebar in the Scroll of Exalts on Ragara Myrun's write-up as to the possible outcomes of a Dragon-Blooded using a SMA.vinom said:That's a risk I willing to take, after mastering all other martial arts styles.
