.:: ABILITIES ::.
Lvl 15: Mind Made for War / Bushido / Mastery of the Mind
[Bushido]
RPly, For decades it has been taught that a samurai’s blade is not a weapon but an extension of themselves. That it is the samurai’s soul incarnate. And as such even in situations that would ordinarily come out as a draw the samurai is somehow able to push themselves that extra bit and snatch victory from even the most worthy of opponents.
PvP: When Rolls are tied and requires "Re-Rolls", User automatically Wins.

[Mind Made for War]
RPly, A samurai is trained in the art of war and combat from the time they are old enough to hold a bouken. They have been taught to practice constant vigilance, that many times an enemy will give off nervous ticks or the like that will show they are preparing to attack. Through hard work and countless battles it has become obvious that sometimes the best way to gather victory is by getting in the first swing.
PvP: Add 1/10th User's Lvl to Initiative Checks

[Mastery of the Mind]
RPly, A samurai’s mind is stronger than the steel they use to forge their weapons. A samurai’s life requires emotional, physical, and mental strength and thus affecting their minds is incredibly difficult.
PvP: Can DEF / Resist Genjutsu with the DEX / STR Bonus to rolls. (Still rolled via CHA)

Lvl 25: Daisho Mastery / One Blade Two Hands / Looming Presence
[One Blade, Two Hands]
RPly, The samurai taking hold of the weapon with both hands shifts their footing and raises the weapon high preparing to show them to true power of a trained swing.
PvP: Kenjutsu ATKs bypass DR equal to STR DMG Bonus but rolled with highest Stat.

[Daisho Mastery]
RPly, Using two blades was all but bred into samurai….or maybe it was bred into them? Regardless! There are few who can meet a samurai on the field of battle and keep on par with a man wielding two weapons.
PvP: - 2 Dual-Wield Penalty, Small / Medium Main-Weapon DMG is increased by the same level of DMG at 1 Weapon Higher (Ex: Small Weapon deals Medium Weapon DMG), Off-Hand DMG remain the same.

[Looming Presence]
RPly, The samurai are truly fearsome when they step onto the field of battle, and the stories of their blade work are the things of legend. Such fear is struck into their enemies at the faintest sign of their blade being drawn. Paralyzing some for precious seconds while shaking others to such a point it makes them lose focus on the fight.
PvP: 5 CP) Used as a free action, AoE WIS / INT Vs CHA: - 1 ATK / DEF rolls for 1d4 Rounds.

Lvl 35: Deadly Edge / Killing Intent
[Deadly Edge]
RPly, Infusing their blade with Ki, the Samurai may increase the critical range of his weapons. This effects both hands at the same time for the duration.
PvP: 19-20 Crit Range to Kenjutsu ATKs.

[Killing Intent]
RPly, The samurai has reached such a level of strength that entire villages and some nations quake at his approach. When but a look can show such an intent to kill that it actually harms a person people often come to fear its source. The samurai has mastered their Ki to such a degree that looking upon a man and focusing it can create physical wounds.
PvP: 20 CP / + 5 CP if Dual-Wielding) Weapon DMG + 7d4 DMG + (- 4) ATK / DEF roll to target for 1 Round.
