Noble

Creature 3 — human, humanoid

FlankerLANDhumanoid

Envied by many and detested by some, nobles exude confidence and gentility. Gossip and gambling are often nobles' favorite pastimes. Dayto-day life for a noble is usually a mixture of business and leisure, and to an onlooker, such a lifestyle can appear to be nothing more than a string of meals, parties, and game halls. The denizens of a noble court are the most powerful people in a civilization, primed with wealth, station, and authority above the common people.

Abilities

Lip Reader — After years of sticking their nose where it doesn't belong, the noble has learned to read lips from afar. If they're trying to read lips in an encounter or attempting a difficult feat of lip reading, they are Fascinated and Off-Guard, and might need to succeed at a Society check with a DC determined by the GM.
Noble's RuseFrequency Once per round

Effect The noble Feints. On a success, the noble Strikes the target.
Sneak Attack — The noble deals an additional 1d6 precision damage to Off-Guard creatures.

WORKS WELL WITH

AnvilLANDA durable frontline occupies attention while this duelist feints and strikes from an unguarded angle.
SniperLANDA ranged attacker picks off targets left Off-Guard after this duelist's Feint opens them up.
SnareLANDA controller pins a target in place so this creature's feint-and-strike combo lands reliably each round.

PUNISHES

✖ isolated targets✖ low Perception✖ melee reliance
Avoid stacking with another feint-dependent duelist; both compete for the same single action needed to create an opening.
