Gean Kasme wrote:Skill Name: Swordsmen -Iaidō goes here as it is the name of a type of sword style
Skill Type:Iaidō -One Sword Style goes here as it is this tis the type of skill Iaidō
Skill Information: The term Iaidō (居合道) refers to a specific style of Swordsmanship  that is concerned with the smooth, controlled movements of drawing the sword from its scabbard, striking or cutting an opponent, removing blood from the blade, and then replacing the sword in the scabbard. The linear motion and force applied to draw the sword from the scabbard results in slashes that are faster and stronger than ones executed with the sword already drawn.
Skill Strengths:
- It's stronger then an already drawn sword. - a fighting style wouldn't effect the actual strength of the blade of a sword.
- It's faster then a drawn sword. - Speed comes down to your stats not the sword (with the exception of lv2 and lv3 weapons).
- If mastered can piece though stone.
Skill Weaknesses:
- Sword Must be re-sheathed before second use. -Your Third weakness is basically the same as it, make a new weakness.
- Cannot be used in secession -Does this mean you need to wait a post after using an Iaidō skill? please explain more.
- Cannot use skills if not re-sheathed (This does not include Almighty blade)
