9.5.1.14 Tekura

An ancient martial arts discipline originating from the Althasai during the Age of Conflict, Tekura incorporates elements from various martial arts across the millenia. Passed down through Father Brachus, one of only two survivors of the martial traditions following the Grand Artifice, Tekura forms one of the three core disciplines of the modern monks. It is a comprehensive system of hand-to-hand combat that emphasizes punches, kicks, throws, and strategic use of combat stances, with practitioners advancing through a structured ranking system denoted by belt colors culminating in the black belt.
