Variant of: Hapan
Prerequisites: Hapan 3/5
Style: Hard
Weapons: Shock Gloves
A fighting style that is easy to learn and fairly powerful, the users not needing to be as strong to master it is Shock Boxing.
The user wears two gloves that deliver electrical shocks when contact is made, increasing the effect of the punch. Coupled with the impact of the blow, an electrical charge is delivered as well. This charge does not harm the recipient permanently, but it has been know to have adverse effects in those of low resilience. The gloves do not require any external power supply because they are powered using ‘kinetic power cells’ that are self-generating.
No weapons of any kind can be wielded while the user wears any type of shock boxing gloves. They cannot allow a dexterous hand, that is of any use, due to the necessary construction of the conduits. Many practitioners have tried to develop a glove that would allow them to wield another weapon, but all attempts have failed, citing impedance issues and personal injury from shock.
Shock Boxing is taught in several small studios across the Universe, many of the matches receiving pretty lucrative holonet contracts from sports entertainment companies.
