Martial Arts Styles: MA105-106 Eagle Claw {Air}

There is no known relation between the Tengric peoples of the northeast and the Cuautl people of the west, and the reverence each group holds for birds appears to be coincidental. However, the Eagle Claw martial art style that seems to have originated in the west has a direct and nearly identical descendant in the northeast. The Aarakokra of the far west claim to be the originators of the style, and though there are none of their kind in the Empire of the Horse, where the Eastern variant is taught, there are many ancient paintings of them. The conclusion sages have drawn is that the style was known to Aarakokra across the world, but for some reason the race left or died out in the East and the art has since been modified by the Humans there. Western Eagle Claw (also called Kuautlistetl) and Eastern Eagle Claw (Ying Zhao Pai) differ only in the weapons and supplemental skills they employ. The two styles of Eagle Claw each contributed to the development of the two styles of Kenkukwan (q.v.).   Sagus Consensus Designation: MA105 (Kuautlistetl), MA106 (Ying Zhao Pai)   Focus: Lock   Secondary focus: Strike   Mode: Hard   AC modifier: 2   Attacks: 2   Damage: 1d6+1   Critical hit: break limb, Dex roll at +2 to avoid   Prerequisites: Western: Bird Warrior, Aarakokra, Monk, Ranger, Eastern: Monk, Warrior   Progression:   Basic   I: Choke Hold, Iron Fist, Meditation Weapons: Dagger(s), Western: Quarterstaff, Eastern: Bo, Eastern Supplement: Dual Weapons   II: Circle Kick, Pain Touch, Weapons: Spear, Western: Club, Javelin, Eastern: Hanbo, Doublespear, Western Supplement: Throwing, Eastern Supplement: Shield Use   III: Flying Kick, Locking Block, Stunning Touch, Western Weapons: Footman's Mace, Baston, Tomahawk, Hand Axe, Eastern Weapons: Ball Hammers, Dadao   IV: Incapacitator, Eagle Claw, Weapons: Zhua, Western: Maquahuitl, Eastern: Dao, Jian, Zhua   V: Hurl, Paralysing Touch, Western Weapons: Atlatl, Sling, Short Bow, Eastern Weapons: Flying Talon, Chain Whip, Eastern Supplement: Entangling   VI: Immobilizing Lock, Western Weapon: Flying Talon, Eastern Weapon: Three-piece Rod, Western Supplement: Entangling
