Notes

Regarding Shadowsoaked Blow:

• "Not breaking concealment" means that the attacker can remain  Hidden after performing the attack, though it still ends  Invisibility.
  • A solo character can use this attack while hidden without entering combat. This lets them get two attacks off before their opponent is aware of them, making it an excellent candidate for use in assassinating isolated NPCs.
