Disciplines and Maneuvers

In this thread will reside every user-submitted maneuver designed by the Playground. When submitting your maneuvers, please do so in the approved format, with no extraneous detail. Doing otherwise will result in a thread that is hard to navigate.

There are essentially two sections in this thread. The first is homebrew maneuvers that are to be found within the existing schools. These will be tagged with the name of the school. This will either contain new maneuvers or fixes for existing maneuvers (I'm looking at you, Iron Heart Surge). The second are entirely new disciplines. These will all contain the [Discipline] tag, but should include a short description that makes it clear what the primary point of the discipline is.

Entries should look like this:

[Tag] Maneuver Name: A one-line explanation of the maneuver.

or

[Discipline] Discipline Name: A one-line explanation of the discipline.

For instance:
[SH] Ninja Attack: A 6th-level maneuver that kills things silently.
[Discipline] Fuzzy Bear: A highly-specific discipline for multiclass Druid Initiators.

That's it. Please provide nothing else and try to limit your explanation to one line. Please try to consolidate all of your homebrews into one post if you come back later to add more.
