Black Rabbit Field Manual: Rabbit-Sai and Rabbit-Do

From the Black Rabbit Field Manual, we have two of the favored Black Rabbit fighting styles:

Rabbit-Sai and the Rabbit-Do

The Rabbit-Sai is a defensive style and can be used passively or aggressively. If used aggressively, the Rabbit will approach the target and parry each attack using a quick movement, such as an elbow, shoulder thrust, or knee to counter with. After a while the target will tire and the Rabbit can disarm the opponent and go for the kill. Passively, the Rabbit will do the opposite and wait for the enemy’s attacks. This technique excels at dealing with multiple enemy combatants. The Rabbit can wait patiently for an opening to strike once they learn of the patterns of the enemy. Rabbit-Sai is the optimal counter to the Many Blade style; however, a master of the Many Blade can overcome most any style.

The Rabbit-Do is a style designed for close quarter combat, significantly better than most styles when used in tight alleys or small rooms. The Rabbit-Do uses straight forward and rapid strikes. Defensive actions are used from the inside to knock away the target's attack. With a mastery of pressure point techniques, the Rabbit will find that Rabbit-Do is a most useful style. The Rabbit-Do is an excellent counter to those who utilize the Giant Hand style, since the large weapons favored by Giant Hand practitioners are unwieldy in tight quarters, making them perfect victims for the quick and nimble Rabbit-Do fighter.

A Rabbit that masters both these styles will overcome almost any opponent with ease.

The Sands of Power

Only dwarven scholars and planar traveling wizards know where the Sands of Power is or how it came to be. Though it is known to have been once a frozen wilderness populated by giants, dwarves, trolls, and ogres. However, how the great terraforming of this strange world became the mysterious desert as it is today, is still unknown.

What we do know is that the Sands of Power is a plane connected to the Mortal Plane, the Celestial Plane, the Roaming Plane, the Infernal Plane, and the Astral Plane. This would explain how both gods have entered the Sands of Power and the dwarves migrated to Draak’Terra.

We also know the Sands of Power is now dense with fearsome titans. Creatures of unfathomable size, strength, and danger. A tribe of denizens live within the desert, hunting these horrible monsters, but not much is known of their origin or culture. We know either their people or tribe is called “the Githrik,” but they are not related to the dwarves.

Other knowledge that scholars have uncovered is that the Sands of Power has some strange “oppressive field” that derives from the desert itself. Upon entering the plane, without a strong resolve or means of magic, one can not last in the desert without collapsing and their lifeforce drained. It is theorized that this would explain the size of the titans and our gods’ attraction to the plane.

Further study is needed.
