::::WIP:::: The mok'bara is a Klingon form of martial arts. The technique is similar to meditation, as the forms are said to clear the mind. The mok'bara is the basis of Klingon hand-to-hand combat techniques, and may be practiced alone, or in groups. The mok'bara involves weapons such as the bat'leth, mek'leth, d'k tahg, and lahj. Some of the techniques and forms involved in the mok'bara are similar to the Human martial art of Tai chi chuan.

((Rules designed and setup by Ethan Winegard))
::::UNDER CONSTRUCTION::::
Martial Arts Tournament
These rules specifically govern tournament style martial arts combat between two individuals. This tournament can be either non-contact where victory is determined by accumulation of points. In such a case a match would consist of n number of combat rounds (typically 10.) At the end of the designated number of rounds the character with the most points wins the match. Or the match can be full contact, where attacks do actual damage and combat continues until one side surrenders or one side runs out of HP.
Action Types
The basis of these rules is the action. Actions can be attack, defense, move or special. A special is basically a combination of two of the other three types. During a combat round a character gets two actions
Attack: This is any action taken by the character that will take up half his turn. A character may take only one attack action per turn.
Defense: This action takes up half a turn. Only one block is allowed per turn.
Move: A character may move twice in a turn. Doing so precludes any attack or block but effectively moves the character out of combat range.
Free: These actions are talking, and other forms of communications. Basically role playing that takes no significant time.
Special: These actions take the entire turn.
In a given combat round a character may take up to two actions in any of the following combinations: 1 Attack + 1 Move (no Defense) 1 Move + 1 Move (no Attack or Defense) 1 Attack + 1 Defense (no Move) 1 Move + 1 Defense (no Attack) 1 Move + 1 Attack (no Defense) Unlimited Free Action. 1 Special
Maneuvers Maneuvers are specific martial arts actions, either attack or defense. Each maneuver has a difficulty which determines how hard it is to perform. Additionally the difficulty of the maneuver determines how hard it is to defend against. Most maneuvers will be of moderate or advanced difficulty. A successful execution of the maneuver requires a test against the DC of the maneuver. The player rolls 1d100 and compares the result to the DC, if the result is greater than the DC the test was a success. The player may add any bonuses from skills or traits that the GM feels appropriate.
Simple = DC 40 Minor = DC 50 Moderate = DC 60 Advanced = DC 70 Complicated = DC 80 Near Impossible = DC 90
Combat Combat is essentially a contest between one players attack and one player’s defense roll. Unless they defending player chooses a combination of action in which she is not allowed a defense action, she will effectively get two defenses during a turn, one passive and one active. At the GMs discretion any appropriate bonuses and penalties can be applied to either the attack or the defense (either the passive or active.)
Initiative: Once the fight begins, initiative must be rolled for both parties. Players do this by rolling 1d100. Highest roll is allowed to attack first. At the GMs discretion various bonuses or penalties can be applied to this roll. The player with initiative may allow his opponent to attack first
Order of Battle
1) The attacking character selects their initial attack maneuver and the roll is attempted. If the roll is failed the opponent is assumed to have evaded the blow.
2) If the attack roll is made the opponent may then attempt to block it by making a roll against the same difficulty as the attack. If both the attack and block roll succeed, the roll that succeeded by the most wins the contest.
3) If an attack succeeds with a critical success a block is still possible but the difficulty is always 90. Lucky Trait gives +3% for critical success. Dumb Luck give +2%. On a critical success the attack always does extra damage. If using the point system the attack does 2 points.
4) Fighters may add a bonus for their martial arts skill to their rolls. Plus any additional bonuses or penalties that the GM deems appropriate.
5) Additionally characters suffer a penalty when attempting maneuvers above their martial arts skill level. A penalty of [(DC – (Skill X 10))/2] is added to all skill rolls, except block attempts which occur at their normal difficulty.
Martial Art Skill Bonus
Skill 1 Bonus 10 Skill 2 Bonus 18 Skill 3 Bonus 24 Skill 4 Bonus 30 Skill 5 Bonus 36 Skill 6 Bonus 40 Skill 7 Bonus 44 Skill 8 Bonus 48 Skill 9 Bonus 52
* If the match is limited to a specific style of martial arts the Martial Arts skill is replaced by the characters specific skill in that particular martial art as determined by the GM.
Exploit Damage: Some attacks list a chance of expose. After any successful attack a test versus DC 10 is rolled if it fails the defender is in an exposed state. The attacker’s next attack does 4 times the listed damage.
Jab The Jab is a fast punch that is extremely hard to block. It is used as a bread-and-butter punch by many boxers or to set up a more dangerous attack or combination. Effect: Jab damage. 10% chance for expose Difficulty: 60 Point Value: 1
Basic Attack A basic punch or short kick Effect: basic punch damage plus 10% chance for expose Difficulty: 60 Point Value: 1
Block You have mastered the basic art of intercepting incoming melee attacks. Difficulty: varies Effect: The character rolls a Test against the same DC as the attack they are attempting to block Point Value: 0

Thanks. ;D
These rules are still under revision, but the basic premise will stay the same.
