Mibasham

Mibasham is an extremly esoteric Discipline that appeared during the Ming Dynasty. It name is derived from the Persian word for "to be" and some believe the involvement of a secretive cabal of mages called the Ahl-i-Batin in the creation of the Discipline.

Mibasham favours the Hun and no known Devil Tiger has ever practiced this Discipline. Kuei-jin who study it are seeking answers to the mysteries of how the Kuei-jin came to be and what their purpose in the world is. In doing so, they become the ontologists of the Middle Kingdom.

Mibasham cannot affect a target with a higher Dharma rating.
