1) So, I just came across the Symbiotics. I'll be reading over them and seeing if there's anything I can't add. An ENDS seems up his alley.
2) Link'd
3) Fix'd
4) Skinny entry, but add'd
5) Contribut'd, and I'll ponder what sort of clothes he'd wear. Been trying to think about what colors would go well with a pale purple. Maybe a dark purple with a lime green trim? A bit 'spacery, but meh? I'll talk about what they'd wear for the Hundredfold Palm a bit later on down.
6) Contract'd
The Hundredfold Palm is a little piece of candy that I found on the Martial Arts page and I thought it looked cool so it's something that I wanted to explore a bit more. Really give the Ivuori that little bit of "Omph" that makes them truly unique. I've been thinking about it a lot today and I wanted to imitate a style of martial arts that keeps with the Arab/Middle East/Western China theme. Unfortunately,
there's not a lot there. However, I did come across
Pankration and thought it would fit/be appropriate, only to find that the
Elysians had dibs first. Thankfully, I had a back-up:
Hung Ga (or hung gar). I realize it doesn't really fit into the middle eastern aesthetic, but I think it fits the name really well. It relies on strong stance and using mostly your arms to deflect and block, then when striking, they are hard and definitive attacks. If you ever watched Avatar the Last Airbender, or The Legend of Korra, this is earthbending.
Fut Gar could be another alternative, or maybe something that Othal himself does/practices.
Here's a good video demonstrating hung gar (albeit with silly sounds).
As for what they would wear, a
Kasaya is what I would think would be most appropriate. Probably keeping it at the a
ntarvāsa level since hung gar requires more upper body/arm movement and too much would get in the way. I'm definitely up to the task of making a wiki page if I need to.
