Falcon's Strike

A tiny off-shoot of the Falcon Clan’s bushi traditions, the Falcon’s Strike Dojo becomes much larger and more influential after the Falcon are absorbed into the Crab Clan in the early twelfth century. The dojo selects its students for keen vision and sharp senses, and they learn to rely on focused senses rather than the  mechanics of drawing and firing to hit their targets.

The Falcon's Strike [Bushi]
 * Rank: 2


 * Replaces: Toritaka Bushi 2. After the Falcon join the Crab, this Path may also replace Hiruma Scout 2 or Hiruma Bushi 2.


 * Requirements: Kyujutsu (Yumi) 3

Technique: Spotting the Prey
The Falcon’s Strike is taught to use the bushi’s deep awareness of their surroundings to strike the target regardless of concealment. When making a ranged attack with a bow, you may use your Perception in place of your Reflexes for attack rolls. When using a yumi, you may also use your Perception in place of the bow’s Strength for damage rolls.
