Will Zen

(Ve) Iron Mind, Partial
SG 60/10: Will zen applied to holding an improved mental toughness stance.
This resists damage to the brain when distracted while applying zen (distraction damage). Note this does not prevent damage, but rather reduces its effects.
(Re) Iron Body, Partial
SG 55/5: Will zen applied to holding an improved physical toughness stance.
This can prevent damage that would otherwise be caused when for example acting with "Impossible Strength".
Most damage though is as it is with "Iron Mind", reduced but not prevented.
(Ze) Impossible Strength, Partial
SG 55/5: Will zen applied to holding an enhanced musculature stance.
If not paired with a toughness stance, use will cause injury.
Balance is vital when stretching into the impossible.
(Te) Soft Precision, Partial
SG 55/5: Will zen applied to holding an enhanced accuracy stance.
Unlike the hard precision of "Perfect Strike", Te is more mental and perfects slight movements like those of a surgeon cutting or a sniper aiming.
(Ne) Environmental Resistance, Minor
SG 50/5: Will zen applied to holding a stance that primarily resists change in temperature.
"Hide" is a related stance that students are often asked to study with Ne.
Note "Hide" is too closely related to be held at the same time as Ne.
Also note, that which affects the senses extremely is dulled.
This dulling applies to bright flashes, loud sounds, and strong smells as much as it does to extreme pain or pleasure.
Also note, the body's temperature change is slowed not stopped by this stance.
(Be) Body Control, Minor
SG 40/0: Will zen applied to holding a stance that enhances conscious control over the body.
Such control includes raising or lowering body temperature, as well as slowing or quickening heart rate.
Note, through a combination of factors breaths can be held longer.
(Bai) Body Control, Medium
SG 50/10: Will
& Function zens
applied to holding a stance that enhances conscious control over the body.
Such control includes raising or lowering body temperature, as well as slowing or quickening heart rate.
Note, through a combination of factors breaths can be held longer.
Also note, unlike with the minor ability this stance allows enhanced pain resistance.
"Environmental Resistance" may resist extreme pain, but it can't protect against minor annoying pain.
Bai can do this, and so may be vital in the defense of concentration.
(Le) Iron Discipline, Partial
SG 70/10: Will &
Order
zens applied to holding a stance that provides a stable foundation for the conscious mind.
Discipline is easier to maintain. Mental balance and confidence level also benefit.
This means that greater multitasking is possible and skills held are better defended, while becoming a more natural leader.
(We) Iron Soul, Partial
SG 65/15: Will &
Dream
zens applied to holding a stance that forges Will into a weak field that protects the lifeforce.
Take minor distraction damage to Will instead of lifeforce, but if severe then may still damage lifeforce.
Stance was initially refined specifically as protection from "Weave Missile".
