My friend is a Wu Tang White Tiger so I get info from him(tho we have to be enemies in-game)
Basics
Affiliation: White Clan (aligned with Shaolin and The League of Beggars)
Clan Headquarters: Tianzhu Peak, Hubei Province.
Current Leader: Master Tianxing, Clan Leader
Lost Dragon: Master Lingyun*
Weapon: Master Lingyun uses a one-handed sword.
Kung Fu Style: Wu-Tang is famous for its Tai Chi style Kung Fu which provides balanced attack and defense through contemplation and mastery over the cosmic energies of Yin and Yang. Their hand-to-hand combat system is known as Boundless Fists, and their legendary Divine Sword techniques are unmatched throughout The Land.
- Master Lingyun fell in love with Lunar Umbra, a former assassin. The clan leaders are furious because Lingyun supposedly gave up all his responsibility toward Wu-Tang and disappeared for the sake of his forbidden love.
Location: Wu Tang Shan, located in Hubei Province, is a breath-taking mountain range with seventy-two peaks. On Tianzhu Peak, the highest among them, sits the central Taoist monastery. There, in the courtyard, members of Wu-Tang, the Clan of Divine Sword, practice their legendary Tai Chi.
Clan Overview
The clan is a discipleship of Tai Chi practitioners who serve as living instruments of the divine justice inherent in The Tao, or Water Course Way, symbolized by the sacred Yin and Yang. The clan is also referred to as the “Clan of Divine Sword” because their disciples hone their minds, hearts and bodies to become as one with their swords.
“I am a swordsman without peer throughout The Land!” The siren song in the heart of each Wu-Tang disciple is supreme confidence. Just as the Buddha proclaimed that he alone was most honored in The Land (a claim which requires deep contemplation to comprehend its truth), so does the Wu-Tang disciple proclaim his superior skill. Unwavering confidence, based on sound training, ensures success without fear from contemplation and guarantees victory by ignoring any obstacle blocking its achievement.
“The sword kills, not the disciple.” The disciples believe that, to be a well-honed pupil, one must surrender himself and his steel to the will of The Tao, which brings unbiased justice to the world in the guise of cause and effect. Therefore, a student who has mastered the techniques of his weapon, serves merely as a capable, neutral instrument, standing ready to act against the darker intentions of his opponent. Since the disciple has freed himself of intention and does nothing but calmly react to the destructive urges of an opponent, the opponent’s death causes no bad karma.
Unlike Shaolin disciples, who try to reform evil through the Buddha’s mercy and compassion, those dedicated to the precepts of Wu-Tang believe that a balanced cosmos demands justice through retribution against evil. Therefore, the Black Clans and evildoers throughout The Land are especially wary of Wu-Tang disciples. Heavenly Demon and Sacred Flower in particular have proclaimed open hostility toward Wu-Tang.
“Each disciple embodies Five Elements, Three Treasures, and One Sword.” A Wu-Tang disciple’s successful path requires meditation on The Tao and the Yin and Yang, as ascribed through an understanding of The Five Elements and Three Treasures that underlie Tai Chi swordsmanship. The ultimate goal is to become an immortal instrument at one with The Tao.
Style: “Divine Sword” disciples are proud, brave and, above all else, noble. A disciple would lose a limb to save a fellow disciple, duel at the slightest provocation, or bloody a commoner who dared belittle the name of the clan.
Clan Slogans:
“Yin and Yang have no beginning nor end, creation and destruction reside in the ways in which they bend and yield to one another.”
“What is firmly grasped cannot slip away.”
“One sword takes life while another gives it back.”
Common Farewell: “Sound sword and sharp mind.”
Membership Requirement:
One needs to undergo a series of quests to become a disciple of Wu-Tang, which culminate as a prospective member reaches Cheng 1 of Opening Chi. Other clans receive disciples into apprentice roles at either Cheng 4 or 6 of Losing Self, then accept them as full disciples once they have achieved Opening Chi. But neither Wu-Tang nor Heavenly Demon take on prospective students as apprentices.
Specialty Class: Blue Dragons, Red Phoenixes, White Tigers, Black Turtles
Classes:
Blue Dragon
Wu-Tang is The Clan of Divine Sword, and it has been bruited that Blue Dragons, who hold the frontlines in combat, are the reason why. They master the slow, supple techniques of Cloud Swords and the fast, unpredictable techniques of Wind Swords. They also learn Arts of Xuanxu, which neutralize negative internal energy to cultivate both mind and body. * Because Life is of paramount importance, Constitution is their most important concern. Essence is harder to develop for them, and Wisdom is not as important as other attributes.
Red Phoenix
Red Phoenixes utilize Hermit Arts to help and heal others, Arts of the Light to purify themselves, and Tai Chi Arts for defense. They also learn protective Chi Kung Arts of Fortitude and combative Arts of Zixiao. Those with high Wisdom are encouraged to become Red Phoenixes. * Essence and Wisdom are key for this role. Constitution is harder to develop for them.
White Tiger
White Tigers seek to master The Tao through diversity of skill. They train each of the various Kung Fu and Chi Kung techniques of the clan, except for sword mastery. They believe Yin and Yang have no beginning nor end, and that creation and destruction reside in the ways in which they bend and yield to one another. * They emphasize Constitution and Essence, and use Kung Fu for offense and Chi Kung for defensive with equal skill. Wisdom is harder for them to develop.
Black Turtle
Black Turtles are Wu-Tang's masters of Chi Kung. They are soft-spoken in nature, but steadfast in discipline. Often sent on diplomatic missions, they protect themselves with Arts of Fortitude and subdue their opponents with Arts of the Turtle. * They place emphasis on Essence and Wisdom. Strength is harder for them to develop, and they are ill-suited to melee combat.
