|description = Control the flow of your blood
|syntax =
|detail = Syntax: CLOT [#]

|skill = Envenom
|description = Apply deadly venoms to your blades
|syntax = ENVENOM <weapon/LEFT/RIGHT> WITH <venom>        WIPE <weapon>
|detail = With this ability, you may layer venoms on an edged weapon. Each time that weapon hits
somebody, one venom will poison your opponent, and disappear from the weapon.
Venoms work on a last-on, first-off basis, so if you put xentio on a weapon, and then put voyria on,
the voyria would come off first, and the xentio second. You must possess a rag with the venom in
order to apply it to a weapon.
In order to get rid of the venoms on a weapon, simply WIPE <weapon>.
|cooldown =
|target =
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|Sturdiness}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Sturdiness
|description = Stand firm against attempts to move you
|syntax = STAND FIRM

|required =
}}

aimed at them and take the blow for them. It will last until you either choose to cease, or one of
you moves away from the other.

|target =
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|Rage}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Rage
|description = None can quench your fervor

|detail = While standing in a location overcome by the shadowrot, you can protect anybody with you
from its invasive nature by focusing entirely upon culling any tendrils or spores that surface the

|cooldown =
|target =
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|Bruising}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Bruising
|description = Bludgeon them into submission with your blunted weaponry
|syntax =
|detail = This ability is passive.
Your attacks with bludgeoning weapons will have a two in three chance to cause bruises on any limbs
you strike. These bruises will cause the target to bleed slightly, based on the severity of the
bruise.
These bruises will slowly grow in severity, with each successful hit causing more bruising based
upon the damage stat of your weapon. A two-handed weapon will be 25% more effective.
Should the opponent be fallen upon the ground, your strikes are guaranteed to cause a bruise and
will immediately upgrade it to the next severity level.
|cooldown =
|target =
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|MainGauche}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = MainGauche
|description = Counterattack with your off-hand short blade
|syntax = MAINGAUCHE
|detail = While wielding a weapon with this defence active, you will have a chance to perform a
counter attack upon most physical attacks made against you. Your chance is roughly based upon your
current dexterity, with higher being better.
Any counter strike made using this ability cannot deliver any effects upon the weapon, such as
empowerments or venoms.

* Knock them to the ground.
Additionally the powerful howl of your shadow's voice will destroy the aura of rebounding if it is
beginning to form.

movement.

|required =
}}

weapon you are proficient in, and the talent you have chosen.

|cooldown =

{{Anchor|Circle}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Circle
|description = Close in as they flee
|syntax = CIRCLE <target> and CALM
|detail = At a cost of continued mental strain, you may use this ability to circle your foe,
reducing their ability to escape you. Should they flee your location, you will automatically strike
and stun them, enabling you to take advantage of their cowardice. You may use this ability while
off balance.
Two-handed weapons will give you a 50% chance to stop them fleeing your location immediately.
