Immortal Kombat

The rules are simple, the fluff nigh non-existent. Pick a splat, pick a Martial Arts Style; FIGHT.

It would be best if all participants in a match were of equivalent power tier and Essence.

• Perhaps a series of matches
  • Unarmed + Unarmoured
  • Armed and Armoured (No Artefacts)
  • Artefacts
• Say, 20 Charms total per contestant
  • This includes MA Style (usually 9-12 Charms)
  • Contestants may mutually agree to more or fewer Charms
• Same Essence level
  • perhaps a match at Ess 3, and a match at Ess 5

This is a potential 6 matches per pair of contestants! But some can be skipped, negotiation encouraged. Depends how long the matches go for I suppose. All for fun. :)

Allowed/recommended Celestial MA Styles listed below. Put your name next to any you wish to try out.

• Usable as written : Recommended
  • Storm Crow Style
    • Muzz
  • Arms of the Unconquered Sun Style
  • Crane Style
  • Crystal Chameleon Style
  • Dark Messiah Style (I will not allow Void Avatar Prana in this tournament, consider it non-existent)
  • Hungry Ghost Style
  • Infernal Monster Style
  • Lunar Hero Style
  • Snake Style
  • Solar Hero Style
  • Solar Hero Style (Jon Chung's revision, disallowed for Solars in this tournament due to being Solar level charms for them)
  • The Art of Forceful Declaration Style
  • The Art of Meditative Discussion Style
  • The Art of Relentless Persuasion Style
  • The Art of Victorious Concession Style
  • Thousand Wounding Gears (Alchemical)
  • Violet Bier of Sorrows Style (Jon Chung's revision, more mechanically sound)

• Ok, but some charms poorly executed: Feel free to use if you wish, they have been errated. Remaining wonky Charms (if any) will be addressed as they arise.
  • Air Dragon Style
  • Earth Dragon Style
  • Fire Dragon Style
  • Violet Bier of Sorrows Style
  • Water Dragon Style
  • Wood Dragon Style

• Ok, bit wonky: Feel free to use, but they have not yet been errated, so more wonky than the others.
  • Ebon Shadow Style
  • Mantis Style
  • Tiger Style

Comments and Observations

I would imagine, before any contest has begun, the Immaculate Dragon Styles will be among the most powerful. I would like Storm Crow Style to be slightly more powerful than Snake by Essence 5, and hopefully about equal at Essence 3.
