Sorry for my delays. I'm actually going out of town for a week. Please go ahead and read the following sections on the website:

You will be meeting Master Zhang Sanfeng if and when you get away from these Sentinels. You may go ahead and start updating your characters based on it, as follows:
quote:
Zion recently received a disk from the Awakened representatives through the diplomatic mission of your group. This disk is a Matrix simulation in which you uploaded the following:
Chambara Martial Arts
Chi Mastery (You receive this at Level 1)
You began your studies in this simulation with Master Zhang Sanfeng. As a result of your meticulous work and study, you received the following additional advantages:
Choose one of the following advantages:
1) Trained by a Master
2) Weapon Master
3) Sharpshooter
4) Iron Hand (If you choose this, you receive 30 extra points to apply elsewhere).
You also trained to earn one of the following skills (choose 1 at the relevant attribute level):
1) Hypnotism
2) Escape
3) Pressure Points
4) Meditation
5) Stealth
6) Danger Sense
7) Judo
8) Body Control
9) Karate
10) Other martial art technique (clear with me first)
11) Weapon of your choice
12) Throwing
13) Wrestling
14) Acrobatics
15) Katana
16) Staff
17) Jumping (non-CBP jumping)
18) Breath Control
19) Bow
(If you have any of these skills already, you may use 8 points to increase your skill level if you choose it again.)
Your hard training over time has also given you 60 points to apply to any of the skills or maneuvers below (cinematic or esoteric--but not advantages). These points may only be applied on the skills below, nothing else! However, you may use saved points to increase these skills or purchase these skills further.
Your training has also given you access to all of the skills below. If you do not specifically select a skill or maneuver, you may still attempt it, even if it states that there is no default. If there is a default, you will use the one listed. If it says "No Default," then your default is as follows:
Easy: Default Attribute -2
Average: -3
Hard: -4
Very Hard: -5
NOTE: You must have all prerequisites to purchase the skill.
(All uploaded skills are uploaded at your DX or IQ skill level unless you purchase further upgrades to make them stronger. Please update your character sheets accordingly.)
I may do a bit of fine tuning, but will let you know.
Also, XP's are being handed out below:
Jade does not get CBP because she died and had to be revived with previous memory before going into the Matrix.
I will be handing out CP after this encounter is over.
