It's a Celestial Martial Art from the Exalted RPG that focuses on using dance, grace and Geisha-style props to execute dazzling, ephemeral maneuvers that leave foes uncertain if they just saw a beautiful performance, got their asses kicked....or both. A skilled practitioner can notch steel with a paper fan, and bowl over a horse with the elegant swoosh of a silk sash.



...Oh, and at the pinnacle of mastery they can transform into a massive multi-eyed serpent-beast who hears truths and lies like musical notes and can fly. O__O
