Envenom
Syntax:	ENVENOM <weapon/LEFT/RIGHT> WITH <venom>
Description:	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>.

Sturdiness
Syntax:	STAND FIRM
Description:	By concentrating on increasing your mass, you are able to gain immunity from most physical attempts to move you. Additionally, should you be feared it will have no effect while you remain firm. You will lose this defence should you move.

Defend
Syntax:	BATTLEFURY DEFEND <ally> and UNDEFEND

Engage
Syntax:	BATTLEFURY ENGAGE <target> and BATTLEFURY DISENGAGE

Razestrike
Syntax:	BATTLEFURY RAZESTRIKE/RSK <target>
Description:	Like raze, this will destroy any protective auras and abilities that may prevent you from striking your target.

Disembowel
Syntax:	BATTLEFURY DISEMBOWEL
Description:	Should you have your target impaled, you may carve your sword through their stomach and disembowel them. This will deal severe damage equal to roughly half their maximum health, however this can be increased depending if their torso is broken or mutilated. This will free them from their impalement as you disembowel them, and your blade will cut through any bindings they might have. If you manage to disembowel your target three times in short succession, then the shock to their system will be too much and they will perish.
