Abrasif's New Fables (Or why His Abrasifeness kicks ass!)

ABRASIF MISSING FABLES
Abrasif and the lost lore of Hand To Hand Combat
The Deacon of Deceit had left many stories but some were lost because of infidels burning the scrolls of power, others were in the hands of collectors, some were even used by the Prophet himself when he ran out of cloth for his spring cleansing, but…that’s another story

Abrasif and the enlarged Zombie Squad
Over the years, many have joined the Master of Manipulation on his pilgrimage and path to enlighten the masses regarding the art of personal protection. At the same time, some members, having found new paths for them to explore, took their leave, and were blessed by the True Prophet; some abandoned their possessions and joined temples to meditate on the world, others found soul mates and proceeded to bring forth new generations. A select few became prophets in their own right for a time and then took different paths, a couple becoming public servants, keepers of the peace, and constables, trying to remove the darkness of the world in their own ways.

During Abrasif’s numerous journeys, he discovered that people in foreign lands had heard of his teachings and exploits, through the scrolls of power. Those magical parchments were created by the gods of communication and allowed those possessing them to increase their knowledge by visualizing the Crusty One in his activities. Some, like the adventures of the Ayatollah of Coma with bad women, and taken without his consent, were humorous as well as instructional in nature, but that’s a different story…

Across the barren plains and the immensity of the oceans, new members joined the Zombie Squad. After receiving the Toothless One’s teachings, blessings and crude comments, they returned home to spread the word. Among the most famous, were Kong, a dark-skinned giant with a vegetation fetish, Insane G, an escapee from the madhouses of Krappyland, a Berserker Viking from the snowy poles, a violent couple from the lush jungles of Kiwiland, and many others.

Abrasif regarding ranges of combat

A new member of the Zombie Squad, Insane G from War-torn Krappyland, asked The Prophet “Oh Enlightened One, why not categorize fighting into ranges, thus making teaching HTHC simpler to the neophytes?”

Abrasif looked at the Insane One, smacked him behind the ears, lit a cigar, and answered the following: “My son and favorite Jester, combat has but two ranges, either you’re physically under attack or you’re not. Ranges are but a useless and myopic creation used by amateurs to provide their styles’ solutions to combat problems. If a miscreant is clinching and stabbing your overdeveloped gut, would you say he is in the clinching range or in the lunging range? Obsessing over ranges will only limit your tools, blunt your edge, and relegate your skills to the level of those of the Flapping Jowls and Vibrating Palms.”

Ashamed by his lack of vision but enlightened nevertheless, the Craziest Necrophiliac prostrated himself in front of the Old Fart and sacrificed a dozen puppies for his happiness. This ancient sign of devotion and appeasement resulted in Insane G being questioned by the Watch, who, for some strange reason, suspected him of kidnapping the town’s entire poodle population, but… that’s another story…

Abrasif on training with live weapons

The Emperor of Evisceration was wandering with his clan, the Zombie Squad, in the Washed Capital of the New Country, sharing with them many anecdotes, and explaining life facts. On their way to the tavern, they encountered a clan of militiamen – Peasants thinking they’re soldiers - training for war. Amused by their acrobatics, the Representative of the Combative Deities stopped his motley crew and whispered to them:

“Children, what do you see?”

Brutus Regicidus, a new follower, replied, shaking with delight and anticipation: “Look at them Prophet, these are truly great warriors, training with live blades and killer instinct! Their leader looks so fearsome, see as he devastates the human replica with his savage strikes!”

His enthusiasm was rewarded with the cackling of the Insane Jester. “So? What’s so special about it?”

“But look at the aggression, the blood, the violence!”

“Ha” Replied the Prophet “Crazyman G knows that there is no reality in this type of practice. Real training should hurt, but not injure, for pain is an excellent reminder for one’s mistakes. These poor fools in armor are not going at it full speed, full power, and with intent, or half of them would be dead and the rest hospitalized by now. They’re yelling and screaming and trying to look tough but unfortunately it is merely a manifestation of their insecurities. Nothing to admire truthfully”

“The Prophet’s words are liked honeyed wine” sneaked the Deranged One “intoxicatingly delicious. Hitting a BOB Dummy full force, wearing insignias claiming one’s lethality, obsessing about one’s toughness, and claiming to know everything about combat are signs of insecurity. Anger, bravado, and hatred kept these men in darkness, and their negative emotions will ultimately, sadly consume them and their loved ones.”

“Truthful words my lunatic jester!” screeched his Crustiness “A prophet who takes himself too seriously is missing a lot in his life. Let’s go replace Brother Kong’s veggie burger with real meat!”

Prophet Abrasif, or the bible of Hand To Hand Combat (Or how to have fun while learning Personal Protection)

Hey guys,

After a long absence, we have decided to ressurect our beloved Prophet. For those of you who don't know him, Prophet Abrasif is a fictional character created by Marc Ste Marie (our beloved MP from the Senshido forum) and his fables are based on his and other Senshido instructors' experiences.

Abrasif stories are a fun way to learn about Personal Protection and I am now in charge of writing new fables starring the Crusty One.

I will be posting the latest Abrasif stories here. As for the original ones, they can be obtained through me. Just email me and you'll get them.

Get ready for His Abrasiveness to rock your world!

AUB's Rape Prevention seminar debriefing

Hey guys, I'm back from the 2-day Safe For Life Rape Prevention seminar taught at AUB free of charge for Woman's Day and it was great. I loved the participants, both the guys and the few guys who attended (especially the ones who tried to kill me LOL) and those who helped around as demo guys and in scenario training.

I think many enjoyed the seminar, and I hope they will email me their comments so that I may post them here (and brag about my perversion of Lebanon's youth Mwahahahaha!)

I still have another seminar at Balamand university tomorrow and Thursday, and pray they'll be as fun as the AUB one.

I'm working on a article but dont want to rush it. I'm also thinking about some scenarios and will post again very soon.

Sorry for the 2 weeks haiku but I was having some problems getting my visa for the France seminars and it's very disheartening.

Thanks for listening!
