Common Ki Techniques

Base techniques
  • Ki defense: as an immediate action a ki user may gain a +1 to its AC or to saving throws by spending 1 ki point, even before it knows the result of an attack or of a failed save.

For every 3 additional points it may increase the bonus by 1. This bonus lasts one round and may not surpass a +5.

  • Levity: as an immediate action a ki user may reduce its fall by 10 feet (3 meters), spending 1 ki point.

For every additional point spent it reduces the fall by another 10 feet (3 meters).

By spending 4 points it may stand or move on the surface of water or similar frail objects.

These effects last 1 round but the ki user may spend points every round to continue them.

  • Agility: as a free action a ki user may gain a +2 bonus to Balance, Climb, Jump, Swim and Tumble checks, all together, for one round.

For every additional point it spends it may increase the bonus by 2, up to a maximum of +10.
