Alverant Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 I remember reading about stooge-jitsu in an old issue of Adventurer's Club for 4th edition. Has anyone converted it to 6th? I lost my AC collection a few years ago in a flood and didn't really miss them except for little things like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Liaden Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Re: Stooge-jitsu Stoojutsu appeared in Adventurers Club Issue #17, "Silly Martial Arts," by the great Aaron Allston. I transcribed the basics of it to the forums a while back (adapted from 4E to 5E as needed), given how long ago that was published and how hard it is to find these days. I don't have the 6E Martial Arts rules so I don't know how hard it would be to adapt, but for anyone who wants to, here it is again: STOOJUTSU Manuever Phs Pts OCV DCV Damage/Effect Bonk 1/2 3 +2 -2 STR +2d6 Strike Curly's Charge 1/2 5 +1 -2 STR +2d6 Strike + v/5, FMove Ear-Yank 1/2 5 +0 -2 Grab, +15 STR to Drag Victim Along Nose-Twist 1/2 5 +0 -2 Grab, 1d6 NND(1), +10 STR to Hold On Slap 1/2 4 +0 -2 2d6 NND(1), defense is any sort of Resistant Defenses Advanced Technique Eye-Poke 1 5 +0 +0 Flash 2d6 (Sight), No Range (-1/2), Full Phase (-1/2) Skills CSL with Thrown Weapons of Opportunity Confusion (similar to Persuasion) WF: Thrown Weapons of Opportunity Elements Weapons +1 Use Art with Clubs (espec. crowbars, 2x4s, chairs, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schiz02 Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Re: Stooge-jitsu I'm thinking that if I can ever get a Lucha Libre Hero game off the ground that the comic sidekick must have this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Liaden Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Re: Stooge-jitsu Got 'em in front of me. One was Rhinoceros Style, supposedly created by a group of Japanese sumo wrestlers captured by Malay pirates and later shipwrecked on the west coast of Africa. Another was Kid Fu, based on children's playground roughousing, with maneuvers like "Indian Burn," "Noogie" and "Pinch de' Blub." Aaron Allston described another such art in AC #18, Hack Writing, an ancient tradition practiced by the print journalists belonging to the secretive "Brotherhood of the Pen."
