A user may use his ki to push his body beyond its normal limits for a short period. To use this technique a user must spend 5 ki points as a swift action and takes 1d4 damage to enhance his physical form. When the user does this he gains +2 Strength and +2 Dexterity, +10 feet bonus to all movement speeds and a +2 bonus on Listen and Spot checks for the rest of the current round and until the end of his action next round.
A user can enhance this bonus by multiplying the effect X2. When done a Kaio-ken ×2 costs 10 ki points and deals 2d4 damage to the user which grants bonuses of +4 Strength and +4 Dexterity, +20 movement speeds and +4 bonus on all Listen and Spot checks, but still only until the end of his action next round. For each multiplier of ×4 and each 4 there after (×8, ×12, ×16, ×20, etc) the user also takes 1 point of Constitution damage (none for ×1 − ×3, 1 damage for ×4 − ×7, 2 damage for ×8 − ×11, 3 damage for ×12 − ×15, 4 damage for ×16 − ×19, etc)
At 6th level when a user unlocks the ability to have Lesser ki abilities he can use the multipliers X3 - X5. At 10th level when he gains Greater ki abilities he can use the multipliers X6 - X10 and finally when he reaches 16th level and has Master ki abilities, he can use the multiplers X11 - X20.
A user must have enough available ki points to fuel a multiplier he chooses and the maximum potential damage that it could cause to his body must not be able to take him below 1 hit point and the temporary constitution damage cannot take him below 3 constitution or the multiplier fails. For example, if Toma, a 16th level Saiyan Warrior used Kaio-ken X20 he would have to spend 100 ki points and take 20d4 damage to gain +40 Strength and +40 Dexterity, +200 feet movement speeds and a +40 bonus on Listen and Spot checks. Since the maximum damage potential to his body is 80 hit points, Toma can only use a X20 multiplier if he currently has at least 81 hit points or more, even if the die rolls would probably only come out to around 45 total damage.
When a Saiyan Warrior uses this ability it cannot be used in conjunction with the Super Saiyan 1-3 transformations but it can be used with Epic level Saiyan God transformations.
