All unarmed combat techniques call for the '''UnarmedMartial arts''' [[Skills|combat skill]]. Like other melee weapon skills, Unarmed Martial arts has its own range of [[Weapons#Melee weapon modes|maximum attacks per turn]], which varies depending on skill level.
At the core of unarmed combat are the two basic melee attacks, the '''punch''' and the '''kick'''. These basic moves are the "weapons" of unarmed combat, and may be selected alongside a target and an amount of attempted attacks, just like any other weapon. It is possible to attempt multiple basic punches or kicks, depending on your skill level and corresponding max attacks per turn, but it is not possible to mix basic punches and kicks in the same turn.

In order for a character to learn martial arts techniques, multiple requirements must be met. Each technique requires a certain [[Skills|skill level]] in Unarmed Martial arts in order for it to be available at all, and once that level is reached or exceeded, lessons must be purchased in order to learn the technique and become able to perform it.
All martial arts techniques can be learned at a Dojo.

=== Steal ===
Not an offensive technique, but a useful one all the same. Sometimes, the opponent has something you want; take it, and turn it on them.
* Cost: [[File:Parallar symbol.png|10px]]'''1000'''
* Required skill level in Martial arts: '''Skilled'''
How to use:
* This technique counts as a melee attack. On a successful hit, your opponent must make an [[Agility]] check. If the result of that check is equal or lower than your attack roll result, then Steal is successful, and you will be allowed to steal one of the following:
** One of the target's equipped weapons
** One item (or up to 100 coins) inside the target's inventory
*** You may also "reverse-pickpocket" and ''plant'' one item (or up to 100 coins) from your inventory into the target's.
* Objects stolen using this technique can be immediately equipped (if applicable), added to your inventory (if you have enough space for it), or thrown to a random Side of the room.
* If you fail the Steal check, if no objects are eligible, or if you succeed but choose to take nothing, your turn immediately ends.
