Techniques | ||
Rank 1 |
The Kakita School emphasizes the more traditional and ritualistic fighting styles. Bushi from the Kakita School may add their Iaijutsu skill to any Initiative roll and may also use their Iaijutsu in place of their Kenjutsu. | |
Rank 2 |
The bushi now learns the famous "sudden strike" of the Crane Clan. When engaged in an Iaijutsu duel, the samurai can raise the TN by any value, not just multiples of five. He may still only raise a number of times equal to his Void. | |
Rank 3 |
At this Rank, Crane bushi learn how to spend more than one Void Point when engaged in a Iaijutsu duel. | |
Rank 4 |
The bushi learns how to move so quickly that he can make two attacks per turn. | |
Rank 5 |
At the very beginning of combat, before Initiative is even rolled, the bushi makes a Void vs. Void contested roll with his opponent. If he succeeds, he gains one attack before combat even begins. Usually, the TN to hit a motionless target is 5. | |
