Okay, I have a game tonight, and I'm stumbling through creating an M.Artist.

There's mention in the UMA about Joint locks/breaks, but I can't seem to get the mechanics down or pinpoint them. Can someone explain how to go through it? I'm creating a Praying Mantis style martial artist, so joint locks are naturally part of the style.

On a side note, the character will be using blades on the hands like the mantis, how would the damage facter into a joint lock?

UMA 147 discussed Joint Lock maneuvers, and refers you to other relevant parts of UMA as well.

The blades won't factor in at all, unless they're bought as a Damage Shield that can affect others in HTH Combat.
