Use the free Shinobi Step to Dash, Disengage, or Hide without spending Chakra, preserve Chakra for Techniques that materially change the encounter, and use Fortune Dice on important d20 rolls rather than trivial ones. Your Chakra Origin and Shinobi Path should work together but remain mechanically separate.
