 I started with the idea of a Web: the martial artist would be able to create a significant advantage for him- or herself, provided she had access to her chosen battlefield for a time before the battle actually began.  This advantage manifested as Strands, which seemed a simple way to represent the Spider stylist's control of the battle, and motivate the martial artist to wait until powerful enemies have been thoroughly snared before launching a significant attack.<br>
 I think it's interesting to note that pre-Form, the user is taking advantage of pre-existing Essence flows to hinder his opponents and aid himself: hence the prep-time for Preparing the Spider's Lair.  Presumably, Silk Entrapment Defense uses the dodge/parry to lure the enemy into further compromising his position.  With the Form, though, and its reflexive reassignment of Strands, the artist has begun to actively rearrange the local flows for his own benefit - which we see in a more advanced form in Instantaneous Cocooning Assault.  Just something neat that happened without much conscious guidance on my part. <br>

+Firstly, all uses of Preparing the Spider's Lair require a simple action; the martial artist need not roll to create a Web, or a Strand in that Web, but if they wish to perform multiple actions in that turn, Preparing the Spider's Web counts as an action for the purposes of determining the penalty.<br>

 I like the idea of this style a lot, but I think I would have implemented some things differently. I'd probably do without Preparing the Spider's Lair and the entire idea of preparation - I imagine someone putting up the Form Charm and a web of Essence spreading out around them. I'd also suggest adding some strand-clinches-at-range to this. -[[szilard]]
