This technique allows the user to gain immense strength in very short bursts, and
requires perfect timing, chakra control and knowledge of anatomy, ninjutsu, and taijutsu.
The user gains 2 strength charges. A strength charge can be expended to gain a +1 bonus
to weapon damage rolls for 1 round, up to +5. Every 2 strength charges expended in 1
round multiplies the user's carrying capacity by 1.5 for 1 round.
The user is able to concentrate for a swift action each round while he has at least 1
strength charge remaining, to gain up to 5 strength charges at the cost of 1 chakra per
charge.
Empower
The user may spend 1 point of chakra to gain an additional strength charge.
Mastery
Each step of mastery allows the character to spend 1 additional strength charge per round
to gain a bonus up to +10.
The first, third and fifth steps of mastery in this technique allow the character to gain an
additional strength charge when concentrating.
The fifth step of mastery in this technique can only be attained at ECL 12 or higher, and
allows the user to ignore hardness from objects with a hardness 8 or lower while he has at
least 1 strength charge.
