The path is fraught with adversity—

With the Soviet Union’s stark declaration of
manifest destiny, a new type of arms race erupts.
Throughout the free world, governments and
organizations establish tournaments to train and
seek supranormal humans from within their own
population. Some step forward willingly, stung
by the Soviets’ words and ready to deny them
at all costs. Some come forward for glory and to
prove their skills against one who is truly worthy.
Still others remain hidden, waging a secret war
all their own against Severina and K3KT.

The tournaments prove undeniably popular,


and soon organizations, legitimate and criminal
alike, begin hosting tournaments of their own;
some to seek new fighters for their cause,
others to line their pockets. The majority of the
tournaments never encounter a true fighter of
supranormal ability, no matter how skilled the
combatants. Those of true ability are drawn to
a few small tournaments which are truly worthy
of them. These tournaments are talked of only
in low whispers, and are the stuff of legend: The
Festival of Five Winds, The Queen’s Sword, Tyr’s
Isle, Sphinx Arena, The Frozen Gulag, among
others. The fighters drawn to these tournaments
are paragons of humanity; warriors without peer
who proudly walk the Way of the Fighter!
THE FIVE STYLES
From the cages and pits of underground rings, to stadium filled national competitions and privately
sanctioned events, fighting tournaments have become a popular pastime in all parts the globe. Challengers
from all over take part in these bouts and demonstrate their close-combat prowess by executing an impressive
array of attacks and maneuvers from various melee techniques. Each technique belongs to one of five styles:
Hard, Soft, Wrestle, Chi, or Fluid. All fighters associate each of these five styles with an Animal.

The Hard style centers around pressure and strong physical attacks. Fighters practice the style under the
school of the Tiger, known for its strength and courage. Masters of the hard style trade caution and planning,
for power and massive damage.

The Soft style strings together a rapid succession of attacks, and generates precise strikes with blinding speed.
Fighters practice the style under the school of the Crane, known for its grace, reflexes, and agility. Masters of the soft
style fool slower opponents with deadly attacks that rely on muscle memory and amazing hand-eye coordination.

The Wrestle style comprises of powerful grappling maneuvers. Fighters practice the style under the school of
the Bear, known for its immense stature and endurance. Masters of the wrestle style endure the pain brought
about by their opponent’s onslaught, while closing in for overpowering throws and debilitating takedowns.

The Chi style relies on inner spiritual energies to enhance supranormal power and even create energy
projectiles. Fighters practice the style under the school of the Dragon, known for its mystical nature and
inner focus. Masters of the chi style reduce the options available to their opponent with long range projectile
attacks, and use their power to grant themselves a unique edge.

The Fluid style implements tactics which make use of the surrounding environment to maintain distance, gain
momentum, or launch surprise attacks. Fighters practice the style under the school of the Snake, known for its
cunning and mobility. Masters of the style remain in constant motion, becoming unpredictable, but ready to
strike at a moment’s notice with grave prejudice.

Supranormal fighters combine the styles that they have mastered with the gifts and powers that they have
inherited, creating their own unique form of fighting. Each fighter’s entry on the following pages lists a set
of technique packs that can be combined for a quick pre-built deck. Players are, however, encouraged to
experiment with custom builds once they are comfortable with a fighter’s pre-built deck. This is done by
swapping out a technique pack, or two, with others from the same style.

Turning his rage into a weapon, he trained

long nights, fights, and brews.) With voices
soft, but firm, they told him to live the viking

that he may ascend to Valhalla, Brahm has

subcontinent and even, perhaps, the world. A sikh
warrior of unparalleled caliber, he has mastered
ancient martial arts across Central and Southeast
Asia through extensive study. After years of
training and meditating in temples, he has learned
to channel the spirits of the divine into his body
to outmaneuver and outsmart his opponents.
Despite his impressive skills, he was bested only
once by a mysterious ancient warrior named Ying
Pei. Summoning great energy Ranveer had not yet
witnessed, Ying Pei almost destroyed him with a
fiery attack. Were it not for a prayer to Garuda for
swiftness, he might not have escaped to safety.
Since then, Ranveer has rededicated his efforts to
enhancing his strength, endurance, and spiritual
energy in the hopes that he might encounter Ying
“HAHA! YOU ARE NO Pei and show him the true power of the divine.

Ren remembers little of his parents. Where most


children have happy memories, Ren instead
recalls scraping by until his grandfather, Hiroshi,
fortuitously rescued him and his twin sister, Jun,
from an American orphanage. Raised in Japan
thereafter, Ren’s hotheaded temperament found
structure in Hiroshi’s Taijutsu training. Strong,
scrappy, and a bit brash, Ren naturally embraced
the hard style, eventually becoming an adept
pupil capable of launching fierce, fiery attacks
and incredible endurance. Sparring with his
sister often, he gained greater respect for her
and gradually desired to learn her fighting style.
Ever aware, Hiroshi promised to teach Ren more
as soon as he had fully mastered his own style.
Unfortunately that day never came to pass. After
the sudden disappearance of his grandfather,
Ren’s investigation revealed rumors of a once
“OUTTA MY WAY, OR disgraced student who sought revenge upon
Hiroshi. Suspicious of foul play, the twins venture
YOU’LL GET BURNED!” into the world to seek out the identity of this
mysterious fighter.

COUNTRY: ENGLAND

TECHNIQUES PACKAGE
SOFT: COMBO
SOFT: PAIN
SOFT: PRECISE
CHI: INTERNAL

Originally born to English nobility, Victoria became


a cold and calculated assassin who mastered many
stealthy arts, including ninjitsu. When the owner of
a rival organization to the Red Star Committee hired
Victoria to assassinate their leader, Severina, she
dutifully obliged. Meticulously tracking Severina to
her base of operations, Victoria successfully infiltrated
the premises unnoticed. Slipping between columns
and shadows, she sliced down henchmen with ease
as she made her way to Severina’s chambers. Entering
her room, she swiftly snuck up to Severina. Ready to
bring sharp steel to her throat as she slept, Victoria
was suddenly knocked backed by unseen psychic
forces and pinned to a wall. Impressed by Victoria’s
stealthiness, as no one had ever gotten that close to
her, Severina offered Victoria a choice: become her
agent and receive great power or be torn apart. Sensing
true power, Victoria accepted. Severina then unlocked
the untapped psychic energies within Victoria, thereby
enhancing her with abilities to manipulate psychic
energy and form untraceable weapons for clandestine “BY THE BLADE’S EDGE,
attacks. So strengthened, Victoria now works as
Severina’s deadly second in command.
I’LL SPLIT YOU.”

Born to farmers in Thailand, Wattana was an


unremarkable girl. When many of the privileged
boys of her village left to attend Muay Thai
school, she envied them. One day she followed
them to their school and spied their training
from the tropical forest. As she watched them,
she wondered what it felt like to do something
because you could do it. Why couldn’t she be like
them? , she wondered. From that day forward,
she hastily finished her chores and snuck away to
the school to monitor the teachings. Emulating
the moves day and night by kicking the trunks of
trees, she taught herself to fight as she blistered
her feet and strengthened her kicks. So, when the
first tournament for the boys commenced, she
emerged from the forest to prove her skills. Initially
ridiculed, she stood her ground and beat all of the
boys her age...even breaking one’s jaw with her
fiery, phoenix-like attacks! Thereafter, the school
accepted her and she became their unrivaled
champion, ready to take on any as she determined
her own destiny. “I DETERMINE MY FATE!”
