I think he was meaning Bright, Ddraig and Azazel, I could be wrong however.

Azazel. Beowulf isn't crazy enough to qualify.Alexander said:
Smuthunter said:We have Martial Arts 5 and 3 sifus who are all older, wiser, and crazier than Ogata can ever dream of being. If he appears, turn him down. If he won't take no for an answer, show him just how far out of his league he is.
EternitynChaos said:The problem is Ogata has a horrible habit of breaking his toys, which considering that includes his students means we should probably avoid learning from him. If we really want to learn from someone in the HSDKverse hitting the Ryouzenpaku would be a good idea, particularly once we have our hacking up and have money, they are always short after all.
If Satsujinken is a must then I'd suggest Sakaki's old friend, or the Elders Ex, though she probably would turn us down, but who knows.

Chaos Aura Strike
Cost: 3m;
Mins: Essence 2;
Type: Supplemental
Keywords: Combo-OK, Obvious
Duration: Instant
Prerequisite Charms: Power (Infinity) of Ophis — Endlessness
The Exalt's blows are infused with the deadly energy of the Dimensional Gap that spawned Ophis, greedily breaking down and devouring its targets on the atomic level. Any attack enhanced by Chaos Aura Strike ignored all forms of Soak provided by non-magical materials; the target can still use his natural Soak. If the attack inflicts any levels of damage, this Charm then inflicts two additional levels of unsoakable lethal damage from black, all-consuming tongues of Essence devouring the flesh around the wound. This damage is applied after the damage for the wound transmitting it, but still in Step 10 of attack resolution.

A rather one sided vote /laugh
The looks when we follow through on it. >Diller said:Don't worry Alex I got thi-
........Eternity you ninja. I was almost done too damnit.
Heh of course it was one-sided we have only one option. Man the looks on Ragnarok's faces after we say this to them.
Uhm, no. You can however ask her for advices.EternitynChaos said:One thing, since we have Bright in our Head, we will be able to buy up the Savant background through learning from her yeah?
I will quote from the Scroll of the Monk:EternitynChaos said:Thinking about it, I'd have to say We are High Expert, Low Master, if we take in the Combination of Raw Skill (Martial Art Ability score (5)), and Techniques, which compared to the HSDK crew we have very few, but our raw skill makes up for a lot, plus our charms will help even things a fair amount. For all we have 5 MA, we have yet to get any Spec in it, (though now that Boosted gear switches between gloves and gauntlets I'd suggest that as the first specalization we get) which puts us 2-4 dice bellow where we could be
The Martial Arts Ability, therefore, overlaps with many other Abilities. A martial artist character has good reasons to develop those Abilities.
Athletics: This Skill describes how well a character controls and coordinates his body to run, lift, climb, jump and so on. A martial artist could use this Ability to run up a wall, fight while balancing on a narrow ledge, jump and bounce off an awning, and then land on his feet on the ground after a flying somersault.
Awareness: Martial artists train their minds as well as their bodies. To strike an opponent in precisely the right place and time, a fighter must anticipate his foe's actions by noticing shifts in his stance or how he moves his weapon. An expert martial artist could also develop this Ability to avoid ambushes or surprise attacks.
Dodge: Any fighter who stands and lets her opponent hit her is either very confident in her armor or a fool. Smart fighters prefer to use footwork and flexibility to be where an attack isn't.
Integrity: Martial arts training demands great self-discipline to train for hours in defiance of pain, fatigue and boredom. On a subtler level, a great fighter must keep a clear head in a fight so his opponent can't fake him out or goad him into losing control. This mental and physical discipline can help a martial artist resist drugs and attempts to break his will.
Larceny: Even if a martial artist doesn't care about picking locks or running scams, she might want to deceive a foe through feints or quickly produce a weapon from a hidden location.
Medicine: To attack the weak points of the body, one must know where those weak points are. Knowledge of medicine also proves useful when training hard. After a fight, a prudent martial artist might also want to know how to deal with wounds. One way or another, refined fighting styles often include some medical knowledge.
Resistance: The search for perfect control of the body often includes training to counter the body's weaknesses. In a fight, victory can go to he who tires last or can endure the most pain. Martial arts training often involves toughening striking surfaces with patches of callus so it doesn't hurt so much to hit someone. Muscles tensed at the right moment can reduce the force of a blow. Martial artists might also train to resist heat, cold or other fatiguing conditions.
Stealth: Not every martial artist necessarily wants to sneak around, but moving without making a sound or leaving any trace of your passage is an excellent test of how well one controls one's body.
Thrown: A small thrown weapon can incapacitate a foe just as well as a larger weapon, if you strike the right location. Throwing objects at a small target is also a good test of coordination.
Conceivably, a martial artist might find almost any Ability useful in developing his combat prowess. The Ability labeled "Martial Arts," therefore, represents more than hitting people. It also represents how well a character integrates all of his mental and physical skills—which may be represented by other Abilities—for the purpose of combat. Therefore, an expert martial artist has as much in common with an ordinary bar brawler as a lion has with a household mouser.
Then explain why Alex quoted what he did. He's pretty much implying that we will be on their level if we get those skills up to five.EternitynChaos said:The Masters of the Ryouzenpaku are All at a minimum Grandmasters, which means I would imagine 6's in various things + assorted techniques and Ki bullshitery
The Legendary Superman himself on the other hand, is one of maybe 3 Legendary Masters, which I would imagine Puts him at the 7+ level, Superman indeed basicly if he'd been born in Creation, he'd have become a God of Martial Arts through sheer badassery by now, which isn't to say he hasn't done so here while no one was looking of course
FTFYEternitynChaos said:Low class Disciple => Middle class Disciple => High class Disciple => Expert => Master => Grand Master => Legendary Master
This isn't exactly right. The ranks of Grand Master and Legendary Master aren't achieved with MA 6 and 7. Raising an Ability above 5 isn't possible for humans, both in DxD and Creation.Diller said:FTFY
Seeing as expert is MA 4 and MA 5 is master level.
The disciple class are probably MA 1-3 with the higher levels of master being MA 6 and 7.

Stop making assumptions. You don't know that at all.EternitynChaos said:Well, stuff, not necessarily just the stuff on the list he posted, that's just part of the stuff from the Scroll of the Monk. It probably wouldn't hurt as a starting point, we already have some of it down anyway, Presence probably would be included as well *the whole glowing presence thing they all do*
