When grappling with a person, you can toss them out of the room in a random direction. This will, obviously, terminate any katas as the victim will no longer be within range.

random direction. Using this on earlier actions can render later actions
in the form useless as the target will have left the room.

For those monks who choose not to wear any armour of any kind (including great robes), any tattoos on their body will be activated and be able to use as a kind of ka armour. The amount of armour depends on the total amount of tattoo weight on the monk's body. Further, any tattoos with the damage absorption power will be double in strength (though, again, only if not wearing armour of any kind).
A monk's proficiency of manipulating ka energy has extended their
expertise to boosting the defensive effects of tattoos. A monk with
tattoos can channel the ka energy inherent in the mystical patterns to
turn aside weaponry, providing mystical armour.
 
The amount of armour provided depends on the total amount of tattoo
weight inked on the monk's body. A fully inked monk will have 14%
damage reduction from their mystical armour. This rating can be further
increased to 18% if the monk has also fully transcended the art of
Tattoos.


==Steelgrip==
Additionally, any tattoos with the damage absorption power will confer a
2/7 resistance benefit instead of the usual 1/5.
 
None of the above will apply if any form of apparel with armour (like
greatrobes or armour) is worn.
 
==*KrakenStance==

|}


With this modifier, any grapple-initiating attack will never miss.
This is the Killer stance of the Kata forms. It is the most advanced
offensive stance that allows your attacks to hit with such force that
they damage all your enemies in the room as well.
 
==Hemorrhaging==
 
Your kata forms will now build hemorrhaging each time you perform one.
Hemorrhaging prevents enemies from clotting bleeding below the amount
they are hemorrhaging for or bruising under half the amount they are
hemorrhaging.
 
Each form will build 30 hemorrhaging. If you boost, it will add another
30 hemorrhaging. Additionally, if your opponent has certain afflictions
when you start the form, you will build an additional 75 hemorrhaging.
