Yeah, I was thinking, in Cross' own mind, he's not so keen on
developing Psycho Power... so I also switched the Willpower and Chi
stats for normal Ler Drit. As for Flying Punch, I kept it in the
style, since it's not dishonorable when you use it to smack someone
from the front, as you said. Psycho Crusher I kept, since it doesn't
say it's dishonorable, and I wanted to keep SOME of the original
flavor of Ler Drit (as Ler Drit is the only style that can learn it,
other than JKD).

Heard about that, too... basically, the concept is the same, just
change the energy... 'corrupt chi' to 'evil chi', so to speak.
Reminds me of a story concept I had... where the worlds' chi source
was corrupted, so Street Fighters could not use any Chi or powers
that used Chi without acquiring negative Honor. The story would have
the PCs attempting to find out HOW someone could do this to the
entire chi energies of the world!

Well, you know it may be a good plot device if the power is still evil, but
Cross uses it to do good. Also use Kabbagi to cross over with Ler Drit
because it is the basic energy style besides Ler Drit. Take time to convert
evil psycho power to pure innocent chi. And keep psychic rage, after all
dhalsim has it. think about it.

Guys:
Ler Drit is a Martial Arts style, just as Kung Fu, Special Forces or Karate.
What makes it evil is the Man behind the Psyco Power... just as Akuma makes
Shotokan a dark style (when it is used for dark purposes, of course).

Well, the term "Psycho-power" is somewhat vague i would
say, specially considering how closely it's use
resembles that of "common" chi powers. I think (my
suggestion use it or throw it) it could be simply
considered as "Dark Chi", as other arts master's
comments upon some of the uses of Ler Drit seems to
describe Bison and his disciples use as malignant or
"unnatural". Besides, it's good to remember a good deal
of Bison's understanding of the powers he developed and
taught other came of his study with those Dark monks
from "Secrets of Shadoloo". And i can't quite swallow
revenants as a result of pure psychic or psionic force.

I wouldn't exactly take things to tha point. But i do
agree with the differences of energy philosophy. A Ler
Drit stylist would have to get the a sensei's help to
learn ways to "rechannel" the forces inside him, so that
he might use his powers in other, safer, ways.

Good work both of you. You can tell your player that I forgive him. I know
he's had many sleepless nights over it.

It's not being arrogant if it's true.

I get your point but there's a simple and yet huge
difference. Akuma, no matter how mighty he might be, is
just another fighter (or master) who got mad. With Ler
Drit, a evil man is the High Master AND founder of the
style. Akuma no matter what, would be just another
person in the middle of thousands of Shotokan fighters
in the world and centuries of history.
With Bison, the SOURCE of the method is already
corrupted, any fighter who learns Ler Drit will tend to
be influenced by Bison's way, methods and morals,
because he's the one who set the style. For it to truly
be as any other style, there must be at least one other
master as able, and whose word has as much weight among
Ler Drit praticioners, as his.
Without it, you'll just have some good people getting
dupped, broken and corrupted by their already not so
nice masters. At best.

That's debatable. A lot of fans believe that Gouken's brother died when he
learned the raging demon and was replaced by a demon (or was possessed, or
whatever).

Anyone feel like asking Capcom for answers?

I get what you mean, but as i see it, be he madman or
demon, it doesn't change a thing to what i said about
Ler Drit, does it ?

No, not really. Just pointing out that using Akuma for contrast was a bad
example.

Besides, do you really want to use his (Bison's) background in Secrets of Shadoloo?

No, but then, Special Forces isn't always thought of highly in street
fighting circles. As is, I think Ler Drit was a combo of commando
training, superhuman athletics, and powers gained from that meteor
that Bison found. Someone could be taught the basic skills (stance,
moves, etc.)... I'm looking at how Cross could develop similar yet
safely distant powers from the 'dark' Ler Drit style.

That is if you follow the book's background. I'm not sure but I heard that
Ler Drit is real fighting style and if it is real then M.Bison didn't
created, just used it, as any martial artist would use it's style for any of
his purposes...

Ler Drit a real fighting style. Where do you heard that? It could be
cool to learn Ler Drit.

Yup, because without this background, there's no reason
at all for the whole discussion. I've never seen the
name Ler Drit outside the rpg itself. If you disconsider
the background, Bison would "just" be a Special Forces
fighter with some peculiar powers of his, that might
even be unteachable.

There would be no reason for Ler Drit to exist.

Interesting idea that of Soul Power, but from what i
know (from people who have played the Alpha series one
too many times), Roses power is a combination of family
training/mystic inheritance, much like the Kusanagis'
flame powers in the KoF series. As a matter of fact,
Bison STOLE a good part of his "psychic powers" from
Rose's father, the reason why she went after him & (lame)
explanation for Bison being more powerful in Street
Fighter Alpha than in Street Fighter II.

Sincerely, i have practiced read about martial arts
since i was 5 years old (i'm 24 years old), several
different arts. A good part of the guys i have a habit
of playing with are real martial artists too. And i
sincerely have never ever heard of Ler Drit as a real
martial arts style. The name means what, anyway ? it may
exist for real and i just didn't luck out of hearing
about it, but i'm doubtful for now. If anyone could get
me something on it, i would be very interested.

Subject: Re: Honorable Ler Drit?
Ler Drit is NOT a real life martial art.
I believe it is so written
somewhere in the Shadoloo book.
It was created by Bison,
in the manner previously
suggested under this subject.

As Ler Drit is founded
by such an evil and selfserving
person as Bison,
the art of Ler Drit
would be permeated with Evil.
To understand the art,
one must understand the teacher.
A master of Ler Drit needs
therefore to be Evil.
Otherwise, maybe one could
substitute righteous anger
for the rage...
Who (but Capcom) knows?
A person could of course
become an egotist who
despised Bison, then
leave to make his own world
of shadow and crime.
Hate is strong.

I do not think a
true Ler Drit practitioner
could be a "good" person.
If they jumped off at
beginner level, ok.
They maybe saw the evil
for what it was?
But without guidance,
they will never master
the art of Ler Drit.
They would become
Special Forces people instead.

In short;
No, I don't think Ler Drit
as is, with its founding
principles; greed and anger,
could be made honourable.

Maybe some "sporting" honour
code could be mixed in...
A hunter's code, like;
Do not kill an unworthy opponent.
All harm must be retributed with added force.
Always strive for improvement, stay stronger than your enemy.
They are all your enemies.
-et cetera

I got an idea.
A breakout group off of
Shadoloo, its members
being Ler Drit students,
who have broken off a piece
of the meteor, and distributed
parts of it among their number.
They work to preserve the
members of their organization,
and steadily earn more money.
I'd give them a code like
the one above, I think...

Well I have a simple answer for you...

Bison learned ler drit after he had a giant mysticl meteor fall out
of the sky right? well just say that theres other masters of ler
drit who are good, that you can learn from...

he had the meteor, one of them could learn from bigfoot, one from
aliens, one could have spotted elvis in a convenience store and had
some mystical power rub off. One could learn from the loch ness
monster.

three cheers for white wolfs engaging storyline!!! Bring on the
mystic meteors!!!

In all honesty though, my oppinion is: there is no honorable ler drit.

If you want to have a good guy using ler drit, he should only use it
till he can switch to JKD.

no honorable person would keep ler drit, the style where some moves
mind rape you.

Changing subject, ou've just brought a interesting point
to my mind. So Bison found a big glowing rock,
supposedly a meteor, deep below a uranium vein and it
gives some weird mean-looking powers... Has any of you
people ever played the "Rite of Passage" Werewolf
adventure ?

That could be cool. "Master Presley, how may i find my

I've just thought that the idea isn't even a new one for

less meteor than it seems...

It was a weekly thing the last time it was ran. Rinaldo will probably compile
it on weekends.

Just some FYI about this tournament... This is not a rpg session over email.
It's just a tournament with some occasional trash talking and side stories.
You don't send in one command at a time. You send in a ten round (or twenty
round, lately it's been twenty round) strategy of what you plan on doing each
round (round 1: block round 2: Lightning Kick of Satan 3: Japanese Redeye
etc.) Then at the bottom you put down various if-thens (IF my opponent throws
a flamming goober at me THEN abort to jump, that sort of thing.)

Just a basic starting character w/out cybernetics/hybrid backgrounds. If
you're using a style that's not in the books or other house rules, you'll have
to run them by Rinaldo "Tournament God" Gambetta.

That should be enough to get you started. Rinaldo will be kind enough to point
out any errors I've made (preferably in all caps so I don't miss them).

Ooh! Ooh! I got it! Extended character concept... long range
planning is great! :) Someone mentioned that Ler Drit could not be
honorable because of the man who created it... but, wouldn't it be
interesting to see Cross develop Ler Drit into something that IS
honorable? Become the first master of a new martial art (even if it
IS an offshoot)? He knows enough to see the evil inherent in Ler
Drit... somehow, working around that, while maintaining the strength
of the style. Hmmm.... and the idea of a group stealing a piece of
the meteor... perhaps Cross could have a small pendant or something,
of the meteor material... extended contact with it has given him
insight into his own "Psycho Power", but as he lacks the megalomania
that Bison had BEFORE he ruled Shadoloo, Cross insteads focuses on
how he can use his powers for good (since, having lost his memory, he
was rescued and brought back to health by a good-hearted hermit).

Subject: Ler Drit... a MIGHTY style =)
hmmm... Quite a disscution going on thus far.

This stands to reason, given how much time Bison spent in Thailand.
Of course, as I'm going to start taking classes in Muay Thai in the
very near future, it'd be interesting to find out more 'real'
information on Ler Drit! I think the confusion came about from the
passage in the SoS book that mentions Bison's Russian commando
training, hence some group members' assertion that it's a Special
Forces style. They were more correct than they knew, if indeed Ler
Drit is really the military application of Muay Thai! :)

The discussion is basically how could Ler Drit be made honorable (I'm
making a character who has basically broken his conditioning and is a
Ler Drit fighter, but not evil). There are some who believe that Ler
Drit is inherently evil, others that believe that it's the man behind
the style that makes it evil. Personally, and this is not to
necessarily say that others are wrong, I'd like to believe the
latter. :) Although, the 'combat honor' principle mentioned earlier
was very interesting... something I might use for Cross! :)

I think Psycho-Power has been described before as an actual malignant
force. Merely using it corrupts one.

Ah, but then we come to the question: is Ler Drit dependent upon
Psycho Power? As stated before, if Ler Drit is simply the military
use of Muay Thai (or something like that), then I think the answer
would be no. So, yeah, Cross might not use Psycho Power, but instead
use a purer form of Chi. He would still have access to some of
the 'non-dishonorable' moves, such as Psycho Crusher (appropriately
renamed, or course). I'm trying to keep close to Ler Drit, just
tweaking it so that at higher levels, it's understood that this is
indeed a 'separate but equal' fighting art as much as standard Ler
Drit. Soul Power is nice, but in game terms, if someone were to use
Style Lore, they'd look and say, "Oh, Soul Power. He must be a good
guy.", whereas with Honorable Ler Drit, they'd recognize it as Ler
Drit "That's odd... Ler Drit.. but he seems to be a decent guy?
What's going on here?"

I think a Ler Dritt practitioner could strive to become good. It would
have been impossible for them not to be corrupted by it. Controlling the
"forces of darkness" and all. Someone who wasn't evil and didn't want to
learn it would not survive the training.

People can always strive for redemption. But whenever they use the Chi
powers of Ler Dritt, they would feel a bit of that evil creeping over
them. To not tap the evil Psycho-Power (an evil malignant force), Chi
training could be undergone to Focus the powers by other means (tutelage
under a Tai Chi master or other such similar thing - a Kabbadi user or
Soul Power user).

I find it interesting to compare the Soul Power users that White Wolf
published for Brazil and the Aura Combat users I created (to represent
Rose). Soul Power gets Cannon Drill. Wow. And Improved Fireball.
I didn't give the Style I created such things, but I did create useful
powers such as "Psychic Healing" for it (something to counteract Mind
Control and Psychic Rage).

Actually, Ler Drit is a real life martial art. The martial art style that
the Thai military forces use, is called Ler Drit. Or, I believe, more
correctly called Lerd Rit. Or something like that.

Ler Drit is basically a nasty variant of Muay Thai (if that's possible),
with an emphasis on quick and dirty takedowns. Something like Special
Forces meets Muay Thai sort of thing.

They don't claim to glow in the dark - not so far, at least.

"A real style exists with the same name" would be more accurate.

I could say Im making a new style where you glow and fly around and
shoot fire and im calling it (drummroll) Judo.

But that wouldn't mean that "Judo" from my campaign "Really Exists"
because there is a style about throws, chokes/jointlocks, and pins
that shares the same name.

You lay out a strategy, but you can make exceptions to that strategy, such as "if the opponent uses a Maneuver that is Aerial, I will abort to Block" or whatever. Rinaldo is very good at handling these strategies, and mine were quite complex and he never complained. The thing is, when you get you tail kicked, re-form your strategy so you won't make the same mistake again. Your strategy gets better and better all the time. Cool.
