Practitioners of Delicious Elephant Style vary in texture and flavor almost as much as the pachyderms they seek to emulate. The style's history is clouded in very mysterious mystery, though its first mention in history lies as an appendix to The Almighty Cookbook of Resplendent Might, a cookbook\revolutionary manifesto released in the twilight era of the First Age by discontent Solar chefs. Its teachings spread in fragments following the Contagion, and the modern teachings have divided into several variations dependent on the spices and sauces available in that corner of Creation. This tree follows relatively close to the original style, but players are encouraged to flavor the style to their particular interpretation of it. <i>Delicious Elephants favor either the seven-section staff or the sledgehammer, alternatively desiring the noses of their scrumptious idol or to tenderize their foes as they must tenderize themselves to truly become Delicious.</i>

Background

Practitioners of Delicious Elephant Style vary in texture and flavor almost as much as the pachyderms they seek to emulate. The style's history is clouded in very mysterious mystery, though its first mention in history lies as an appendix to The Almighty Cookbook of Resplendent Might, a cookbook\revolutionary manifesto released in the twilight era of the First Age by discontent Solar chefs. Its teachings spread in fragments following the Contagion, and the modern teachings have divided into several variations dependent on the spices and sauces available in that corner of Creation. This tree follows relatively close to the original style, but players are encouraged to flavor the style to their particular interpretation of it. Delicious Elephants favor either the seven-section staff or the sledgehammer, alternatively desiring the noses of their scrumptious idol or to tenderize their foes as they must tenderize themselves to truly become Delicious.

(Mechanically relevent infomation should probably be obvious, <i>italicized</i> or otherwise.)

Charms:

Tasty Bits Defense</b>

<b>Cost: 3 motes
Duration: One turn

Min. Martial Arts: 2
Min. Essence: 1
Prereqs: None


The character flavors her body with Essence, becoming resilient to damage just as an elephant becomes delicious. For the turn the Charm is active, the character can absorb up to her Essence in bashing damage. This Charm is incompatible with armor.

(As per the standards at FormatStandards/CharmFormat)


(Also important is the index list. It has obvious enough alphabetized categories. Just use good judgement.)

On Comments

Comments are generally placed at the bottom of the page, under a "== Comments ==" header; this includes Styles, the index, and generally any other page under MartialArts, or, really, the Wiki as a whole. If the Style is a work in progress, or otherwise looking for specific mechanical advice, comments should be ":<i>Indented and italicized</i>", or futher "::Indented", if responding to comments. Any comment made should generally be signed at the end -- it won't stop the world if you don't, but it's an easy enough courtesy.
