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 weild another weapon, but all attempts have failed, citing impedance issues and personal injury from shock.

Stance

Shock boxing gloves can be used with almost any unarmed style (with the exception of styles that require an ‘unfettered’ hand), so the stance is determined by the style.

Striking

Shock boxing gloves can be used with almost any unarmed style (with the exception of styles that require an ‘unfettered’ hand), so the strike is determined by the style.

Defense

Shock boxing gloves can be used with almost any unarmed style (with the exception of styles that require an ‘unfettered’ hand), so the defense is determined by the style.
