Du avbryter din nuvarande utveckling för att byta till en annan skola, det handlar bara om insikt och inlärningsteknik. Så du börjar med Rank 1-tekniken på en skola, sen senare "i spelet" tar du den här prestationen för din Rank 2-teknik och bortom. Det är inte en karaktärsskapande feat i 1: a upplagan.
This is an unusual advantage, in that it can only be bought after a bushi (and only a bushi and only to another bushi school) has progressed beyond Rank 1 in his School. GM permitting, this advantage lets the player switch schools without losing his old techniques. When the bushi switches schools, his old Techniques are "frozen." He won't learn any further techniques from his old school, but he'll begin learning new techniques in his new school immediately. As soon as he gains permission to begin training at the new school, he more-or-less immediately learns the Rank 1 Technique (GM's discretion on the length of training necessary, but probably not longer than 3 to 6 game months). The bushi then begins gaining Techniques in his new school as his Insight goes up, just as usual.
