Dirty Fighting (1 slot/3 CP) Intelligence/Knowledge

Group: Warriors, Rogues Initial rating: 5

Veteran brawlers and soldiers acquire a repertoire of feints, ruses, and various unsportsmanlike tactics that can come in handy in a fight. A character with this “skill” can attempt to use a dirty trick once per fight; if he succeeds, he gains a +1 bonus to his next attack roll. If there’s some reason the enemy believes the character will fight honorably (hardly a wise assumption!) the bonus is +2.

Once a particular enemy has fallen prey to the character’s dirty trick, he can never be caught off-guard again. In addition, if the character’s opponent is skilled in dirty fighting himself, the attempt automatically fails.
