  • [HALF-ORC] [PERFORMANCE] Show him how to coil his shoulder muscles into a more intimidating stance before striking. (DC 7)
  • [WISDOM] Read his thoughts.
    • Clear your mind. Past mistakes don't matter. Focus on the present, the target.

The following options automatically succeed the check and will improve his training:

  • [WYLL] Try this swing. A little number I call 'The Legend's Strike'.

  • [GITHYANKI] Try confusing your foe, like when you first saw me. Shout a question at them.
  • [BARBARIAN] Don't waste good anger on your thoughts - use it on that target!
  • [MONK] You need discipline, focus. Fix your gaze to a point, then guide your strikes to it.
  • [FIGHTER] Put one foot in front of the other. Let momentum aid your strikes.
  • [ROGUE] This isn't a joust. Feint with your sword, then kick between the 'legs' instead.
