The Drowning Maw of the River Tyrant
Key Skill: Intimidate
Philosophy
The River Tyrant teaches that patience and pressure conquer all. A crocodile does not chase its prey — it waits, motionless, beneath the water, and strikes when the moment is perfect. Students learn to control space, to apply relentless pressure, and to never let go once they have a grip.
