Description:

The best defense against Slays and physical melee attacks, this ability allows the character to parry most additional ordinary melee attack that they were not actually able to physically block or parry themselves. This ability is only useable if a melee weapon is in the user’s hand and against a melee attack that is delivered from in front of the character. The only attacks that cannot be parried with this ability are Fatal attacks, Maiming attacks, Massive attacks, Full Effect attacks, Unavoidable attacks and Terror attacks. Additionally, unforeseen additional ordinary melee attacks including but not limited to attacks from behind, attacks from invisible creatures, or the like cannot be parried via this ability. However, “normal” (as defined by the Weapon Parry ability) attacks from an unforeseen attacker can be parried via a Parry Slay. The tagline “Parry Slay” should be announced when this ability is used and it cost 14 sp per use.
