Air Flows, Silver Mirror -- Raven Xanthus

This is an extremely odd martial art. Essence users are the keystone of crafting Charms for a Martial Arts, but the school of Air Flows, Silver Mirror was one founded by a monk long ago, the original story have been traced back to the Shogun Wars. The complex history of this art has cloaked it in mystery is the simple ability that boasts this art above its mortal brethren, to the rank of Terrestrial. The Immaculate Order allows for Dragonblooded to learn everything up to, but not including, the Form charm but they guard the rest of the Style like a dark secret, and in truth it is.

Fluff: The Monk reached the apex of a mountain one day, his journey having taken him to the temple upon it, and what he found was horror.
