Taranos

Level 21 Werewolf Monk,
Soft Form


Born in the werewood of Perdow and finding a new home and family with the Monk Guild after his own became unavailable to him, Taranos has become somewhat of a soft-style specialist. He has included the hard skills of martial arts in his repertoire for the sake of completeness, but it is the physical poetry of the fluid art forms which resonate with his soul.

The irony of a stronger attacker finding his own strength being used against him amuses him, and he sees in the practice of the fluid forms with their emphasis on circular motions an analogy for the cycles of nature. Just as a forest fire can be put out by being directed towards the streams and rivers, so an attacker's punch can be made meaningless by being guided to empty air.

Just as that fire will exhaust itself as it lusts after fuel, so that attacker will exhaust himself as he lusts after violence and become defeated by his own effort.
