Bharata Zho Veda (eskatonic martial art)

Bharata Zho Veda is the eskatonic martial art from Priests of the Celestial Sun, and it's the only martial arta not being back on revised edition, apparently. Since it's often a player's favorite (mystic monk hitting tsubo or pressure points? Did you say Kenshiro?) here it is how i envisioned it.

Stance: +1 Defense versus unarmed or melee attacks. Like Shaidan. It concentrates on flowing and avoidng being hitten and use the enemy strength against him. It's fast and brutal, and dosent use grapples at all.

Ignite the fuse (Fight 4): if opponents hit by dex + fight, suffer -1 to his goal roll for each Vitality suffered on the attack until his next turn. -2 init, basic damage 2 dice + vp.

Shatter the light (fight 5, faith 4) victim hit by dex + fight become uncoscious for 1 turn for VP scored. -1 init. Does no physical damage.

Open the mind's eye (fight 9, faith 8): like ignite the fuse, but lasts one span.

What do you think?

Interesting. I really enjoy thinking of more martial arts and what they might be like in the future. My only suggestion would be to make something more unique for Open the Mind's Eye rather than replicating an earlier power but with a longer duration. :)
