In addition to this ability, the Martial Artist gains access to the following powers:

• A Lunar Exalted that assumes an animal-Style Form while in the actual shape of the Form (or in Beastman Form if their totem animal is the Form's animal) may treat the animal's base form as their 'natural' Physical abilities and Perception for the purposes of their Excellencies, if these traits would be higher than their own, and the cost of activating all Katas of this Form is reduced by 3 motes (to a minimum of 0).
