Martial Arts

Martial Arts are basically art forms designed to hurt, maim, or kill a man in combat. In Rolemaster, the Martial Arts themselves are expressed as skills. There are two types of Martial Arts: Weapon Arts and what we think of as Martial Arts. Basic styles are easily taught to everyone, while advanced styles often have secrets.

In Khorvaire and beyond, the martial arts are learned and passed down from teacher to student. Monks and Warrior Monks can most easily learn a style. While Fighters study weapon arts in order to learn how to be more efficient with their weapons. In Khorvaire, each nation developed their own martial arts.
