Developed on Csilla, the Chiss home world, Carinor was unknown outside of Chiss territory prior to Thrawn's return five years after the Emperor's Death. When he returned, he taught it to the various Imperial troops which he had chosen to clone, hoping to make them that much more effective.

It is characterized by lightning speed and misdirection, making intelligence and dexterity necessary for proficiency. It is as much a style of psychological warfare as it is one of brutal combat, and is therefore a strenuous form to utilize.

=== Striking ===
Fast punches are delivered in the right locations to cause damage, yet – due to the lack of complete knowledge of the style, most users are unaware of how to defend a counter attack once they have committed to the offensive.
 
=== Defense ===
Any defense in this form has to be planned. With the lack of ‘connecting’ moves between offense and defense, the skilled practitioner must be able to anticipate their opponent’s reaction if they are to successfully defend themselves.
