Blast

You've studied how to combat foes with tangible concentrations of spirit energy. These bursts of power can either be directed alone as a ranged attack (using the Thrown Weapon Skill, and without any Muscle in the Damage Roll) or delivered along with a weapon attack (e.g. thrown javelin, bow, kick, sword). As these attacks represent techniques you have developed or learned, you are encouraged to give specific names and descriptions to your different Ki Shot attacks.

To enact a Ki Shot, you must Harness one or more Spirit Points (taking 3 AP for each as normal). Instead of conferring a +2 bonus to a check for each point, this will add +5 Harm to your Damage Roll. If you use the Ki Shot alone as a ranged attack, this Harm bonus is not added to anything. Used during an attack with another weapon, this is added as bonus Harm.
