Path of Equality, Tsuriai (3.5e Monk Fighting Style)
Tsuriai[edit]
The path of equality allows monks to fight on even terms with all creatures, even the strongest of wizards or the most overzealous cleric. Tsuriai mastery allows a monk to take already existing spells and nullify them using the Yin Yang principle.
Yin Yang says that the exact universal opposite of an object exists inside that object in small amounts. Tsuriai amplifies the small amount using ki in order to create a balancing neutrality that nullifies the spell altogether.
