MartialArts/TheQuiver

This is not a complete martial art. Rather, it is but one branch of the Fivefold Way of Battles Style.

Versatile Wit - The Quiver

The Quiver carries a bow or a map case. He is clever and witty. His valor is not so important as his education.

Strategy, choices, haste, pride, archery, boorishness, self-absorption, clever ideas, duelists

Characters who learn these Charms as if they were Sidereal Charms may freely Combo them with Sidereal Archery Charms. Such a character may also choose to substitute her Archery Ability for the Martial Arts Ability any time the Charms of the Quiver call for a use of the Martial Arts Ability, other than for the purposes of meeting the minimum Ability requisite for learning the Charms.

Prerequisite Charms: Fivefold Way of Battles Form

Though an adversary may be ready in eight directions, there is always a ninth one to approach from, eluding even the most cunning opponents.
