Actions & Attacks


Slash (Light)

You attack with a horizontal or vertical swinging motion across the target's body to inflict Slashing damage. Use a knife, dagger, combat knife, shortsword, longsword, or improvised slashing light weapon.

Make a Slash (One-Handed) check against the target's Passive Agility, or against the outcome of a Dodge or Block check if the target reacts.

Success: The target takes Slashing damage equal to your weapon's damage rating.
Critical Success: Critical Hit. The target takes twice the usual amount of damage.
Failure: You miss.
Critical Failure: The GM decides the effects. You might injure yourself or an ally, drop your weapon, or hit a solid surface and damage it.
