Disclaimer: As is the case with my previous mods, while grounded, historical accuracy and realism are not the intent of my animations, nor do I claim that they are. The animations are simply made according to my personal taste which is inevitably skewed by video games I played in the past. If you happen to share the same preferences that I do, then I'm happy for you!
The term "Stance" refers to the mod Stances - Dynamic Animation Sets and not historical martial arts' stances.
