THE PATHS OF THE MARTIAL ARTS
The Five Glorious Dragon Paths
The Fivefold Dynasty and the Immaculate Order preach that the Five Glorious Dragon Paths are the sole route to spiritual enlightenment and salvation. Unlike the other paths, these paths are meant to represent the soul of humanity, as reflected through the five elements. As such, they are by far the most commonly practiced of the Paths, and many techniques exist for each.
However, the Dragon Paths are restricted to those in power, and to those who are fully inducted into the Immaculate Order. No commoner or patrician may learn these paths, as they lack the spiritual understanding to make proper use of them. Anyone caught using these styles who is not of the Dynasty or the Order will suffer severe consequences.
There are only five Dragon Paths. There will never be more, as there are only five elements. All five Paths use spiritual understanding as a Prime Trait.
