Touch of the Void Dragon

Touch of the Void Dragon is an internal void kiho that allows the monk to align his chi with the land around him. The attunement to the elements around him grants his a boost related to the element. The monk would become stronger if the kiho was activated in a cave, or faster if near a seashore. All kami in the area suddenly become aware of the monk, learning everything about the monk, and will gladly share that information with any shugenja using the Commune spell. If the kiho is activated within an area which is tainted it is essentially an invitation for the taint to enter the monks soul, and the taint will increase for every six seconds the kiho is active.
