Tao of the Tornado
Legendary Qi Form [Tao]
Prerequisites: Qi Rank 7
Disciplines: Yin
No Action
Effect: You may use the following modifiers with your Qi Strike:
Whirling [Opener]
Keywords: Metaphysical.
Action Change: This power becomes a Focus Action with FT 2. If it is already a Focus Action, increase the FT by 2
Cost: 3 Stamina
Effect: Before the attack, all creatures within 20ft of you must make a DC 20 Balance check or be repositioned up to 10ft.

Compressed [Transformation]
Effect: If your attack targets multiple creatures within an area or range, you can choose which creatures are actually targeted (this can allow you to exclude allies).

Tornado [Heart]
Keywords: Metaphysical.
Action Change: This power becomes a Focus Action with FT 3. If it is already a Focus Action, increase the FT by 3
Cost: 1 Stamina Burn
Effect: After the attack, you create an intense rotating vortex of wind around you. The Hurricane Force Wind extends 15ft out from you and rotates around you in a clockwise or counter-clockwise motion (your choice). The air at the center of the vortex (where you are) is calm and still and safe from debris and other complications of extreme winds. Additionally, you and your attacks are immune to any effects and hazards resulting from this wind. Once created, the wind's location does not move. The wind persists for 2 rounds.

Corkscrew [Finisher]
Keywords: Metaphysical.
Cost: REC +4, 1 Stamina Burn
Effect: A twisting kick gathers your opponents and drives them backwards. Target all creatures in a 5ft x 20ft line. Make a single attack roll on all targets. On a hit, the target(s) are pushed up to 20ft to the end of the line (just outside the area). You are repositioned to follow the targets and end in an unoccupied space of your choice within the line's area.
Special: The target's size does not affect the distance pushed.
