Bagua Zhang (八卦掌 Bāguà Zhǎng?), literally meaning "eight trigram palm," is an internal martial art from China. It is characterised by spiraling methodologies, a wide variety of techniques, and distinctively evasive circular footwork. Ahat Mastade is a form of Bagua Zhang adapted for deep space combat. The latter was one of the numerous Chinese martial arts learned by Caerula Sanguis and taught to Wong Jing, the founder of Ahat Mastade, as a means of adhering to a target with Van der Waals forces.
