 === New Rule: Secrets ===
-The Charms of the Argent Scorpion of Contradiction Style are expansible in a limited manner, via ''Secrets.'' A Secret is a modification of preexisting techniques; it either upgrades the ability wholesale, alters its fundamental nature in some way, or provides an optional enhancement that can be used at additional cost.
+The Charms of the Argent Scorpion of Opposition Style are expansible in a limited manner, via ''Secrets.'' A Secret is a modification of preexisting techniques; it either upgrades the ability wholesale, alters its fundamental nature in some way, or provides an optional enhancement that can be used at additional cost.
 Secrets are not complete Charms, and so they require less study and mystical potential for most characters to develop. Sidereal Exalted express their martial facility in learning secrets with great ease; they pay 2xp to learn a Secret if they favour Martial Arts Charms, and 3 xp otherwise. Solar and Abyssal Exalted pay 3 or 4. Dragon-Blooded pay 4 or 5, and Lunars must pay 8. Unfortunately for Alchemical Exalted, it is not any easier to store a Secret than it is to store a Martial Arts Charm in the Perfect Lotus Matrix; they pay the same cost for Secrets as they do Charms. Mortals are also not sufficiently enlightened to experience any benefit.

 === A Note on Charm Naming ===
-The techniques of this Style name a rhetorical figure, and the remainder of their title, optionally combined with the title of a prerequisite, form an instance of that figure and a hint to its effect.
+The students' techniques of this Style name a rhetorical figure, and the remainder of their title, optionally combined with the title of a prerequisite, form an instance of that figure and a hint to its effect. The mastery techniques revert to more traditional battlecry names.
 The definitions of figures are derived from [http://humanities.byu.edu/rhetoric/silva.htm Silva Rhetoricae].
 === A Note on Prerequisites ===
-A number of techniques in this Style specify some number of "Style" Charms or Secrets. This indicates Charms or Secrets of the Argent Scorpion of Contradiction Style.

 == Arms & Armour ==
-The routine form weapon of the Argent Scorpion of Contradiction Style is the trident; they are often used in pairs, to imitate the scorpion's claws. The peculiar device called ''howling tiger paw,'' a grappling hook affixed to the end of a chain or seven-section staff, is a less popular form weapon, which recalls the creature's stinging tail. Particularly skilled combatants are able to use two tridents in one hand and a howling tiger paw in the second, realising the full panoply of a scorpion's weaponry.

 The techniques of the Style are compatible with armour, but not its patterns; this means that non-Instant Charms cannot be activated while the character is armoured, and cease effect instantly if the stylist dons any. Individual Charms do not specify whether they can be used with armour; they all follow this rule.

 This Charm is not a Martial Arts Form-type Charm. However, it has some of the properties of Forms! It is compatible with ''Scorpion Form,'' and it can only be active under conditions which permit the adept to use that Form.

 Huh... this is nothing like what I expected, but looks to become interesting. For the sake of clarity, I'd suggest using a full Charm block for the Secrets, but listing 'Secret' under Type. - [[szilard]]

 Okay Shreyas, here's your next challenge after this one: A Martial Art that begins as a Terrestrial Style, incorporates <i>into its structure</i> a Celestial Initiation, and ends as a Celestial Style. Yes, I should be hurt. -[[szilard]]
