- • Taijutsu- (体術?, literally "body technique" or "body skill")
is a Japanese blanket term for any combat skill, technique or system of martial art using body movements that are described as an empty-hand combat skill or system. The term is commonly used when referring to a traditional Japanese martial art but has also been used in the naming of modern martial arts such as Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu. More specific names than Taijutsu are typically used when describing a martial art, such as Jujutsu (focusing on throwing, grappling, and striking), Judo (focusing on throwing and grappling), Aikido (focusing on throwing and joint locks) as well as Karate and Kenpo (focusing on striking).
•
- (sometimes abbreviated as HTH or H2H) is a lethal or non-lethal physical confrontation between two or more persons at very short range (grappling distance) that does not involve the use of firearms or other distance weapons. While the phrase "hand-to-hand" appears to refer to unarmed combat, the term is generic and may include use of striking weapons used at grappling distance such as knives, sticks, batons, or improvised weapons such as entrenching tools. While the term hand-to-hand combat originally referred principally to engagements by military personnel on the battlefield, it can also refer to any personal physical engagement by two or more combatants, including police officers and civilians.
Combat within close quarters (to a range just beyond grappling distance) is commonly termed close combat or close-quarters combat. It may include lethal and non-lethal weapons and methods depending upon the restrictions imposed by civilian law, military rules of engagement, or ethical codes. Close combat using firearms or other distance weapons by military combatants at the tactical level is modernly referred to as close quarter battle. The U.S. Army uses the term combatives to describe various military fighting systems used in hand-to-hand combat training, systems which may incorporate eclectic techniques from several different martial arts and combat sports.
Hand-to-hand combat in public places, between individuals or groups of people.
Unlike sport fighting, a street fight might involve weapons, multiple opponents or revenge and has no rules. The venue is usually a public place (e.g. a street) and the fight often results in a serious injury or even death.
The main difference between street fighting and a self-defense situation is that a street fight is avoidable, whereas a self-defense situation is not. The other main difference is that the fight is consensual between both parties. A typical situation might involve two men arguing in a bar, then one suggests stepping outside, where the fight commences. Thus, it is often possible to avoid the fight by backing off, while in self-defense, a person is actively trying to escape the situation, using force if necessary to ensure his or her own safety.
In some martial arts communities, street fighting and self-defense are often considered synonymous.
- Shorinji Kempo ("Shaolin Temple Fist Law")-
a Japanese martial art which considered as the modified version of Shaolin Kungfu. It was established in 1947 by Doshin So (宗 道臣), a Japanese martial artist and former military intelligence agent.
Shorinji Kempo is a system of "self-defense training" (護身錬鍛), "mental training" (精神修養) and "promoting health" (健康増進), whose training methods are based on the concept that "spirit and body are not separable" (心身一如) and that it is integral to "train both body and spirit" (拳禅一如).
Through employing a well-organized technical training schedule (科目表), Shorinji Kempo claims to help the practitioner "establish oneself" (自己確立) and to promote "mutual comfort" (自他共楽). The philosophy and techniques of Shorinji Kempo are outlined in their handbook, (少林寺拳法教範) Shōrinji-kempō-kyōhan.

- 'Muai Thai' is a combat sport from the muay martial arts of Thailand that uses stand-up striking along with various clinching techniques. This physical and mental discipline which includes combat on foot is known as "the art of eight limbs" because it is characterized by the combined use of fists, elbows, knees, shins and feet, being associated with a good physical preparation that makes a full-contact fight very efficient. Muay Thai became popular in the sixteenth century, but became widespread internationally only in the twentieth century, when practitioners defeated notable practitioners of other martial arts.
"Kung-fu" is a primarily unarmed Chinese martial art resembling karate.Wudang Martial Arts were created based on the Taoist ideology. Taoism holds that there are basic, everlasting and supernatural principles in the earth which are called “Tao” suggesting softness, quietness, emptiness, unification, fairness and harmony. All these can be presented according to Tai Chi, Yin and Yang, the Five Elements (water, gold, fire, wood and earth) and the Eight Diagrams tactics. Under the direction of these philosophical theories, this Kung Fu style gains good effects in the boxing and sword skills.
A Japanese martial art and a method of close combat for defeating an armed and armored opponent in which one uses no weapon or only a short weapon. The word jujutsu is often spelled as jujitsu or ju-jitsu. It is also known as Japanese ju-jitsu.
"Jū" can be translated to mean "gentle, soft, supple, flexible, pliable, or yielding." "Jutsu" can be translated to mean "art" or "technique" and represents manipulating the opponent's force against himself rather than confronting it with one's own force. Jujutsu developed among the samurai of feudal Japan as a method for defeating an armed and armored opponent in which one uses no weapon, or only a short weapon. Because striking against an armored opponent proved ineffective, practitioners learned that the most efficient methods for neutralizing an enemy took the form of pins, joint locks, and throws. These techniques were developed around the principle of using an attacker's energy against him, rather than directly opposing it.
There are many variations of the art, which leads to a diversity of approaches. Jujutsu schools (ryū) may utilize all forms of grappling techniques to some degree (i.e. throwing, trapping, joint locks, holds, gouging, biting, disengagements, striking, and kicking). In addition to jujutsu, many schools teach the use of weapons.
Today, jujutsu is practiced in both traditional and modern sport forms. Derived sport forms include the Olympic sport and martial art of judo, which was developed by Kanō Jigorō in the late 19th century from several traditional styles of jujutsu, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, which was in turn derived from earlier (pre–World War II) versions of Kodokan judo.
A martial art developed in the Ryukyu Islands in what is now Okinawa, Japan. It was developed partially from the indigenous martial arts of Ryukyu Islands (called te (手, literally "hand") and from Chinese kenpo. Karate is a striking art using punching, kicking, knee strikes, elbow strikes and open hand techniques such as knife-hands, spear-hands,and palm-heel strikes. In some styles, grappling, throws, joint locks, restraints, and vital point strikes are also taught. A karate practitioner is called a karateka (空手家).
Weapon(s) InformationName: Type: Description: Strengths: Weaknesses: Abilities: Image(s): BackgroundHistory:After the Nuclear fall out incident many governments sough to protect themselves from the people showing up with powers by creating soldiers of there own. Project Pandemonium was geared around Test Tube babies. Children who were born parentless taken from viable donors grown in a lab and therefore no one would know they existed or miss them. Each child is was coded in white ink glow in the dark ink. Something that would only show up under black lights. Then from an early age they were given drugs to help manipulate them and form them into the perfect fighting and killing machine. If they picked the death/dead they were given a positive injection that made them feel good if they picked something 'sweet and innocent' they were given drugs that made them hurt and feel bad. When they got older the children were taken into a class room given a visor and were told to put it on. Then two Iv's were hooked up. One with a glowing green liquid one with a thick nasty red liquid.
Once the program started for every kill they did the glowing green 'positive' fluid was given to them making them feel even better. For every failure to kill or every time they choose something nice the red fluid was pushed in. Nek was no exception for humans by nature aren't evil they crave and wait love and attention no matter there source of birth and so they stepped things up a bit making the prize and punishment system even more rewarding and painful then before. Leaving them hooked in for hours upon hours.
By the time Nek was sixteen he had taken off of the visor and was put in pits with death row inmates. Two bracelets were put around his wrists. One with the good drug and one with the bad. Then the door would open and he would be told he had so long to make his first kill if he failed to do it in that time....he would be punished and if he did he would be rewarded and get the next fight. At first he had two hours then an hour and a half followed by an hour all the way down to it had better be within five minutes of seeing the man....and finally instantly.
He got really good at it....too good. The drug's had been pumped into his system so much that they had an unforseen result. They triggered the release and shaping of his powers as Nek made a game out of it because he hated them and hated being there he'd purposely allow them to inject large amounts of the red drug into his body until it hurt like no tomorrow could come to take it away and then the green...to the point many believed his blood was the drugs.
Then one day many would say he snapped but snapping was such a wrong way to put it twenty years old he had had enough of there games of having so much of the drugs which they added in to more one a intense blue the other purple He had been getting those four for four years as they had figured out he was building up a resistance and incredible one to the drugs of before they crafted new. In doing so they made it so that he felt nothing but fun.....when killing. When he could not stop without killing or be miserable but....they failed to hook up the drug bracelets right one day that also served to be controls for him. And he took advantage of it killing the lab tech....killing all in his path. One of the lab creations fought back and managed to strike him three times in the face the scars present today.
He took the exam passed became a Hunter and then they made him a BloodHound but at first had a hard finding his Retainer.....in the end his Retainer found him and Nerve is the only man Chaos will listen to anyone else if they try to order him is likely going to die an Chaos will not loose any sleep.
