Description:
With a little luck and some skill, you can move like they do… With this ability you can avoid, or move out of the way, of a frontal incoming attack. Any type of attack ability that is used or exhausted due to contact is not used or exhausted if Avoidance is used to defend against it. This skill does not allow you to avoid the effects of the “Burst” tagline, the Unavoidable ability, or “Radius Effects”, nor can it be used to defend against attack made from behind.
In using this ability, the character must announce “Avoidance” immediately after being hit with an attack. It should be noted that asking “what was that?” and then deciding to use the skill after determining if it’s worth “avoiding” or not is not considered immediately after an attack. Additionally, a character can only use Avoidance once per combat and costs 15SP to use.
