bare-handed creed

These are my hands. They are highly trained and are capable of protecting myself and others with overwhelming speed and accuracy. To my friends and allies; they are gentle and merciful. To those cruel and evil souls to thrive on harming the innocent; they can be harsh and effective weapons. My hands are always with me.

​These hands have been forged in the fires of countless hours of grueling repetition. I am no stranger to broken fingers, bloody knuckles, and injured wrists--for true mastery of these great and magnificent weapons requires such sacrifice. They can quickly move between rest and action with only a moments notice. My hands are always ready.

​No man shall lay hands on me without my permission, which is a confidence that I have earned. Other weapons are useful--but only when available and functioning properly and most requiring the use of my hands. Extremely versatile, always accessible, and rarely dependent on outside factors--my greatest weapons of opportunity will always be my hands.
