Melee (Major) by Specter

"I will defeat your southern preying mantis with my shaolin flaming tiger!"

The hero instinctively knows martial arts... every martial art.

1) Identify style: Base Skill: 80% +3% per level of experience. The hero can identify a karate form within a few seconds, knows it's origins, and it's weaknesses. +2 to strike, parry, and dodge if the character spends a full minute studying someone in combat.

2) Change forms: The hero does not pick a hand to hand style at character creation. Instead they can pick any one from Ninjas and Superspies, Mystic China...etc. at the beginning of a melee round the hero can change his martial art form. This takes away all bonuses from the previous form.

3) Level Bonuses: The hero has this Hand to hand style at 5 levels over his own level.
At 5th level the hero may select two martial arts: one 5 levels over his own level, and the second at his own level. At level 10 the hero may select a third martial art also at his own level.

4) Additional Bonuses:

+2 PP and PS

+2D4x10 SDC
