Discipline: Steel Serpent (Counter)
Level: 2
Initiation Action: 1 immediate action
Range: One attack
Target: You
Duration: Instantaneous
By using his knowledge of anatomy to contort away from a strike, the Steel Serpent disciple may bend away from an attacker’s grasp and make a swift counter-offensive. As an immediate action, the disciple makes a Heal skill check against the attacker’s roll to bend or otherwise contort himself to evade an attack. If successful he negates the attack and may make a free dirty trick attempt without provoking attacks of opportunity.
