Shadow

By Bruce Wayne

You live in the shadows!

Class: Rogue

Requirement: You must have Dexterity 4 or higher and both the Dexterity (Legerdemain) and Dexterity (Stealth) focuses.

Novice: You may enter Stealth Mode as an activate action. Whilst in this mode you receive a +1 bonus to Dexterity (Stealth). Opponents find it hard to land telling blows on you. They suffer a -1 penalty when making melee or ranged attacks on you. If you perform a major action then your stealth is broken (although an attack would still count as being made against an unaware target).

Journeyman: Throwing your voice, using billowing capes, tasseled weapons, and unpredictable movements you can make your enemies see double, confusing their senses. Any enemy attempting to attack you whilst you are in Stealth Mode must make a Perception (Seeing) test vs your Dexterity (Stealth) or suffer a –2 to any attack rolls directed at you (including additional attacks from special abilities and/or stunts).

Master: Your mastery of stealth and subterfuge enables you to maneuver effortless around the battlefield. You may now use major actions whilst in stealth mode, but may only use basic attack actions. Any other kind of attack (including pinpoint attack or other special/stunt attacks) breaks Stealth Mode as normal.
