  A creature of pure agility she exhibits nearly limitless speed, particularly in short bursts, and reflexes that defy the sliest hazards. Balance and coordination work in direct correlation to lissom attributes and she is highly accurate with a flexible form capable of advanced acrobatics or feats of agility. This level of movement, in many facets, has surpassed peak mortal potential and is an act of supreme discipline connected to the training of the Seven Fangs martial art.
  
  Raw, physical power is something left to be desired as she is slightly more fragile and weaker then the average creature. While this does not hinder her striking potential, it does not empower it either, and she is forced to rely on her striking technique and agility to administer more potent damage. In competitions of raw strength, however, this means she will most likely fail. On the other hand, due to her rigorous training regimen, her endurance is excellent and is able to maintain physical activity over longer periods of time.
  
  Her mind is lacking and many would call her stupid. A natural genius of the Astoņi Nāvīga Nagi martial art, but severely lacking in both education and wit. She can not read, write, and numbers completely are beyond her. There is a capacity for learning, but she lacks an interest in education. Somewhat witless, as well, she's easily fooled and is a terrible liar.
  
  Magic is all but unknown in her homeland. She has no way of learning magic and is particularly vulnerable to it. Physical magic she can react to, but otherwise she is unaware of magical effects.
  
  Limited to physical skills such as acrobatics, climbing, swimming, and fighting she shows no signs of intelligent abilities. Even though her martial arts style is complex, too complex for a simpleton, she is a natural prodigy of the art form. She is often considered a savant. The anatomical knowledge that comes with Astoņi Nāvīga Nagi is almost purely instinctual, with little actual knowledge on how the techniques work, but with all the knowledge of how to perform them and their results.

  Astoņi Nāvīga Nagi is a complex martial art with focus on agility and skill overcoming the necessity of strength.

Common striking methods include bracing the thumb against the fist, middle knuckles, open palm, side palm, and closed fist. Because of this conditioning of the fingers is the most important which includes many strength and dexterity training regimen.
  
  While Astoņi Nāvīga Nagi avoids the use of kicks, a boxing art with the belief that footwork is superior in a fight, they do employ throws, hip checks, elbow strikes, shoulder pushes/strikes, and headbutts in addition to the boxing techniques they employ. Ground grappling tends to be avoided, though several techniques for defensive grappling exist in their array of techniques such as escapes and counters.
  
  Weapons employed by Astoņi Nāvīga Nagi are often small and sharp. Knives, daggers, darts, and spikes are common, sometimes in combination with a rope, cord, or sash. The technique with these weapons is the same as without as they're used as extensions of the Astoņi Nāvīga Nagi hand-to-hand techniques.
  
  Armor issued to Astoņi Nāvīga Nagi warriors is leather with reinforcements of iron or occasionally steel. The knuckles are often hardened leather with points, knobs, or occasionally metal claws and spikes. Bracers and gloves are always reinforced to turn the arms into defensive measures against weapons.
