Purposeful Stance

Purposeful Stance Martial Basic 60 Hours

Most martial arts wouldn't even consider this a proper stance at all. For starters, it inherently involves forward movement. For another thing, you are directly facing your target. Move with a purpose. Take moderately long strides forward. Your head is tilted slightly down with your eyes looking dead ahead under your brow. Lean forward into the path. Try to imagine that the dog just ate your project, that you are going to go get your gun, or that you are made of metal and asking, "Have you seen this boy?" You receive a +3 to Speed and a +3 bonus to Glare or Intimidate. All of these bonuses end when your forward motion does. Yes, you can run with this stance, but you don't get to double the +3 Speed bonus.
