Ndlovu-Sana Martial Arts

Most Houses have some form of martial arts to help their legacies defend themselves. It's also a badge of honor to know it.
This varies from family to family as groups build their forms over time.

The Ndlovu House has been building for over three hundred years and is one of ten oldest forms within Sedibeng.

Despite their age, many martial arts will hold their style. The Ndlovu-Sana arts has always had the purpose of evolving, an entire clan of retainers works every weapon types training constantly, all for the specific purpose of improving the art form.

The clan is not specifically linked by blood but the duty of being the best in the art, spiritually and physically. They are generally Chui, giving reasons for the creation of millions of notes across the board.

These notes are the basis of their knowledge, passed from young student to student as it becomes schooling, how retainers learn to read and write. Thousands of hours are spent on it and the group on every member of the Ndlovu-Sana training them.

The Ndlovu-Sana House dedicate hundreds in gold on these arts and the people behind them. They give a return on investment by equipping the family birth talented disciplined warriors and soldiers. An act that has always served a Ndlovu-Sana who produced positive income.

The school is open to all willing to pledge, but only the retainers are allowed to enter the inner circle. Breaking in is almost impossible as people are born into the inner circle. There is a system of hundreds of checks, working together to make their lives easier.

There is a single head of the Martial Arts School who can speak to the Matriarch directly and there is the head's champion. A role belonging to a child of the head. The role must go to the child of a head because one must be able to teach their own.

Anyone can challenge for the role of head, but a challenge can only be made to the head's champion. To defeat the head is to become the head but it is a dual role, a champion must have a parent.

But not anyone can challenge, a series of challenges must be made upon a ranking, the ranking list can be as high as a hundred people meaning at least fifty matches.

A low ranker cannot challenge anyone two ranks above.

A high ranker cannot challenge more than ten ranks below, to limit chances of growth and reduce newbie crushing.
