False Path

The False Paths were dangerous traps which laid in the way of those who sought Enlightenment. A monk who attempted to grasp too much power too quickly might stumble onto a False Path, going astray. These paths could lead to corruption, Way of the Shadowlands, p. 43 or even madness. Way of the Phoenix, p. 91
