Veiled Moon

As the stillness of the moon reflected upon a still pond, the spiritualist discipline of Veiled Moon is seen as a strange and esoteric art, whose mysteries are difficult to grasp, and even harder to practice! The practitioners of this discipline are said to be ‘half-in, half-out’ due to the fact that they seem to be living in two worlds; in fact, this is not far from the truth. Veiled Moon disciples have grasped connections to the Astral and Ethereal planes in their mind through intense meditation and a spiritual devotion to learning the ways of spirits and the natural world, and blended them seamlessly into a martial art so supernatural that it borders on the magical.

A potent, yet passive, discipline, its esoteric abilities are often misunderstood. Techniques include short distance astral teleportation, ethereal abilities to become incorporeal or use incorporeal touch attacks to strike foes easily, force damage strikes, and the ability to cause foes to become incorporeal themselves.

The discipline of Veiled Moon is a supernatural discipline, and all abilities within are considered supernatural abilities and follow the rules and restrictions of such.

Ethereal Techniques

Techniques which have the [Ethereal] descriptor specifically use the Ethereal Plane to function. If the initiator is on an a plane that does not touch the Ethereal, then Veiled Moon techniques that have the [Ethereal] descriptor simply do not function; all others function normally.

Teleportation Techniques

Teleportation maneuvers require that the destination must be within line of sight to the initiator. Also, maneuvers with the [Teleportation] tag only apply to the initiator himself, his gear and equipment, and up to 25 pounds of carried objects.

Mind-Affecting Techniques

Maneuvers with the [Mind-affecting] tag are considered enchantment effects for the purposes of saving throws and immunities.

Incorporeality

Maneuvers and stances that cause the initiator to become incorporeal also cause the initiator’s equipment, and up to 25 pounds of carried items, to become incorporeal.
