Moo Gi Gong

This is actually a subform based on Hwarang-Do Karate and is often taught in the same monasteries and schools. In this art the student learns to use any object as a weapon.

An expert in Moo Gi Gong prefers to enter a combat totally unarmed, but in an area where there are plenty of potential weapons laying around. Once entered into combat she'll use whatever items come to hand. Just about any room or area contains suitable hand to hand and throwing weapons. Places like kitchens and tool rooms are veritable arsenals of death for a master of this art.

Special: Hwarang-Do and Moo Gi Gong are unique in that they are designed to work together. When a character has both, then all the attacks per melee, bonuses, abilities, and powers of Hwarang-Do are used in wielding weapons, weapon proficiencies, and weapon katas of Moo Gi Gong. Any martial art powers and abilities from Moo Gi Gong are used with Hwarang-Do. Will not enter combat with a weapon (they use one, however irregular, from the battlefield).
