KitBox/DistantImmaterialTouchStyle
The Distant Immaterial Touch is a minor Siderial Martial Art based on the indirect transfer of energy through a medium.
Distant Immaterial Touch is incompatable with the use of armor.
This is just the skeleton of the style; pretty much just the mechanical effects, no flavor text because I'm hungry and hungry = no thinkie.
