It's possible to attempt actions related to Talents that a character doesn't possess. Everyone (or nearly everyone) possesses a rudimentary grasp of each Talent, even without the minimal competence required for one dot's worth.

The Do skill represents a character’s all-around dedication to Akashic training methods, with an emphasis on the Dharmamukti, or unarmed combat arts. Do is the “secret art” whose many names are whispered of in martial arts legends, the progenitor of more modern forms and the most efficient, effective style of unarmed combat in existence. As a vital part of the Akashic paradigm, it serves as the focus for much of the Brotherhood’s magic. So much so that the magical and mundane aspects of the art are considered inseparable.
Other Abilities must be purchased to learn it, and it is restricted to Akashic Brothers and very close allies. For more information, see WW4657 Tradition Book Akashic Brotherhood (Revised Edition) 61 and Advanced Combat
| Do
|
|
Novice: Sometimes, the right movements come naturally, but usually you just respond by reflex.
|
|
|
Practiced: Your mind and body work efficiently together, but remain separated by a lack of understanding.
|
|
|
Competent: You can call yourself a Tao-shih without your master raising an eyebrow in amusement.
|
|
|
Expert: Reflex and perception are one. Junior Akashics call you Sihing.
|
|
|
Master: You never plan your movements in advance, or use a particular technique. You are movement and technique, and your actions flow with the Wheel.
