    Skill Name: T'ai Chi Ch'uan (Tai Chi)
    Skill Type: Martial Art
    Skill Information: T'ai Chi Ch'uan is a very elegant, flowing style of martial arts, one known as an 'internal martial art', that focuses on breathing and posture, along with flowing movements to create a style that uses minimal effort for shocking damage output. The style, whose name translates to 'supreme ultimate fist', is designed to maximize longevity in a fight without sacrificing the stopping power that most more straight-forward arts possess, which makes it somewhat superior. It is practiced in slow-motion, however in application it has quite explosive speed behind it.

    Most, if not all, of the strikes in Tai Chi are done with an open hand; pushing with the palm or striking with the edge of the hand. This actually makes the strikes quicker, with very little drop in actual effectiveness, along with the added benefit of not hurting your knuckles every time you strike. Tai Chi mainly focuses on diverting an opponents attack and either disabling the weapon (or limb) they used, or striking and throwing the opponent away, using only a small amount of your own energy since most of the movement was done by the attacker. Tai Chi mainly excels at defense, as it uses well-practiced and masterfully crafted defense techniques that include offensive components, so that defending and attacking at the same time can be achieved.
    Skill Strengths:

    • It takes less energy to perform Tai Chi techniques than most standard martial arts, allowing practitioners to fight longer without sacrificing effectiveness.
    • Though Tai Chi is practiced in slow motion, it is actually quite speedy in application. Being one of the faster martial arts, it is difficult, if not outright impossible, for the average human to keep up with a Tai Chi user's movements in combat.
    • Tai Chi's basic attacks (non-technique using combat) are very versatile, and can be used in many scenarios, even outside of combat; though they normally focus on the opponent making the first move.

    Skill Weaknesses:

    • Tai Chi requires a calm state of mind, and a focused one. As such, if the user is in any emotional distress, such as anger or fear, they cannot use techniques from the style as effectively.
    • Tai Chi is a very close-ranged style, requiring one to wait for the opponent to strike, most of the time, but including some actual offensive maneuvers, which are usually used to press the attack until the opponent tries to counter. Being so close-ranged in it's very nature, most long ranged fighters will eventually overwhelm them if they can't close the distance.
    • The user must be able to keep a constant motion with their arms; having them bound makes all techniques impossible to use.

    For the first ability, and the following defensive abilities, please state a range. Even though the defensive abilities may be melee, a close ranged attack could differ from 3 cm to 4m. As for the dodging technique, you've stated yourself that it has a range, but you haven't specified the range.

    For the first ability again, elaborate on how much the movement speed is limited by.

    Roaring Tide:

    As of ongoing discussion on buff spells, a maximum of +10 for a Level 1 ability which buffs two stats has been decided upon. Therefore, you will only get +10 Reflex and +10 Stamina. You could, however, limit the buff to one stat and gain +15 in that respective stat.

    Since you're having a movement deficit in the first ability, it wouldn't make sense for you to have such a long range of motion. Limit it to a maximum of 20 feet.

    And for both the defensive abilities, please give possible ways to dodge them. They would count as weaknesses. Examples could be: fast attacks, weapons which are connected via chain, so don't have the same pressure distribution between them, etc.
