CryptoLeak: Silence is Broken
CryptoLeak is a video streaming platform with a singular goal: to allow users to upload and share video content, no matter what. Videos uploaded to cryptoleak cannot be removed, doctored, or censored.
Despite a near-universal condemnation by world leaders, most people greatly appreciate CryptoLeak. It's the go-to platform for posting illuminations, whistleblowing evidence, and data leaks.
CryptoLeak is a mundane technlogical entity that cannot be controlled or destroyed. It has no backing business or organization. It utilizes a distributed architecture that allows it to host content across the entire world, sharding and mirroring its petabytes of data accross millions of personal devices. Content uploaded to CryptoLeak is immutable and cannot be doctored or redacted by any known means.
For once, technology has put the power in the hands of the little guys.
World governments and other powerful organizations can still censor or restrict access to CryptoLeak within their domains, and they sometimes utilize the platform for misinformation and psy-ops campaigns. However, for most people, CryptoLeak represents the freedom to speak and be heard.
Of course, simply uploading a video does not gaurentee it will be seen or gain traction, nor does it protect you from any consequences that may come along with pulling back the veil. . .

Tidal Reverie
Ebb and flow with lethal grace
Tidal Reverie captures the essence of water's fluidity, channeling its unpredictability and relentless power into a mesmerizing combat style. Practitioners move like waves, embodying grace and precision where each gesture flows effortlessly. This style is instinctual, relying on natural balance and agility to confound opponents. With subtle shifts and sweeping motions, it transforms gentle movements that colapse into surges of force. The seamless dance of evasion and attack allow practitioners to dictate the pace of any confrontation.

Indra’s Thousand Thunder Fists
“With every movement, the sky roars, and each strike is the voice of the storm.”
Blessed by the storm-wielding god Indra, your body becomes a conduit for divine thunder, making your unarmed strikes as swift and relentless as a raging tempest. Each attack carries the force of a thousand storms, amplifying your speed, power, and precision to supernatural levels. Your movements crackle with static energy, and every punch, kick, or parry resonates like rolling thunder, disrupting the very air around you.
While engaged in unarmed combat, your strikes break through defenses like a lightning bolt piercing the heavens. The storm itself seems to favor you—guiding your hands, amplifying your reflexes, and making you an unstoppable force. No blade, bullet, or brute strength can overwhelm you, for you are the tempest given form.

Inner-self Wushu
Straight out of Shaolin
Kung fu teaches techniques for both defense and offense. Defensive techniques are mostly four types, dodge, block, catch, and parry, and offensive techniques are feint, hit, lock, and throw. Shaolin kung fu teaches all these types of techniques. In kung fu, techniques are taught via two-person practices. In these practices, one party attacks and the other defends or counters or stands in posture for the other party to perform the technique. In Shaolin kung fu, in addition, two-person forms are taught. In these two-person forms, attacks and defenses are performed one after the other. Each technique is followed by its counter, and the counter by its counter, and so on. These forms ensure perfect memorization and exact transmission of the techniques from generation to generation.

Ki Initiate
The inner energy of the spirit begins its awakening.
By awakening the knowledge of Ki, or spirit energy, a wielder can begin to enhance the motions and actions of their physical form with this invisible force. To onlookers, it would appear as if the user was moving at impossible speeds, blurring into motion with impossible reaction times.
Ki, the power of the spirit, is an invisible force present unknowingly in all things. In most cases it is entirely unused and remains completely in the background. For those that strive to reach the pinnacle of Martial Arts, however, it is the fuel of the soul and the ultimate weapon.
As an Initiate into the power of Ki, the user begins to enhance their basic actions. As their mastery improves, so too will their capacity to leverage their Ki for power.
