Sneak Attack
The tree ability. Rungs are cumulative: a Tier 3 character has the Tier 1, 2, and 3 lines.
- T1

You have advantage on attacks against an enemy with no Vigor. Exploit the Gap (Maneuver, no cost): choose an enemy that is flanked or surprised. It takes Vigor damage equal to a roll of your Tier die.
- T2
Your attacks ignore Vigor against surprised targets.
- T3
Study Target (Action, 2 Stamina): choose an enemy; your next hit against it this combat is automatically a critical hit.
- T4
ALL your attacks ignore Vigor entirely.
- T5
Ultimate: Death Strike. When you hit a surprised enemy of your level or lower (3 Stamina), it must make a Body save or die.
Deeds
Every martial tree grants two Deeds: its initial deed at Tier 1 and its ultimate deed at Tier 5.
Killing Stroke
The death that was always waiting. A turned back. A dropped guard. Your strike lands exactly where it does the most damage.
No Witnesses
The perfect kill is the one no one sees. Silence the target before they scream. The assassination never happened.
