Way of the stick is a sage field available to monks, strengthening the body as a weapon of war, with the essence of the practitioner being committed to performance in combat, causing damage and acting as an arm for the character's masters — whomever they may be, either good or evil.
Practitioners of this way are often associated with the "Black Hat" school of arts.
The field includes the following sage studies:
- Claw: use of the hooked hand, applied to acts of throwing, catching and speed, while seeking to wound or blind an enemy.
- Fist: use of the closed hand, dedicated towards strength, physical damage and the use of force, seeking to break and destroy an enemy.
- Foot: use of the foot, to provide additional attacks and force in order to overcome an enemy.
- Hand: use of the open hand, to block, stun or misdirect the attacks of an enemy.
