  • Requires: ✦✧ Intellect    
  • Origins:  All  
  • Start with:  ✪ Envelopment

Your tactical acumen gives you an edge in combat and makes an adventuring party more than the sum of its parts. 

You start with the following ability:

✪ Envelopment

✦✧ Intellect  When you successfully Outflank a foe, choose whether to add your Agility or Intellect to the free attack roll. Additionally, you can coordinate a simultaneous Outflank maneuver with an ally against a single foe. You and your ally both roll Outflank at once. Each success inflicts -1 guard on the foe before any free attacks from the maneuver are resolved.If you and your ally both fail the Outflank roll, the foe can only make one free attack against you or your ally (their choice).
