A southerner uses less physical strength than a northerner, instead relying on agility. In the hot climate of his home he prefers light armor which permits him to move more freely. The southerner has therefore developed a style of fighting that is fundamentally different from what we are used to.

Probably the most famous maneuver a southerner uses is the one-armed block and backstep. The backstep enables the fighter to weaken the blow from his assailant's attack, at the same time taking up a superb stance from which to counterattack.
