====== Blades ======

**Key Attribute**:  Dexterity.

This skill epitomizes the art of wielding edged weapons with deadly precision.  Adept Blades users move with lightning speed and strike with pinpoint accuracy.  Success on a Blades check lets you  unleash a flurry of attacks,  disarm an opponent,  or  execute a perfectly timed parry.  Whether wielding a rapier in a deadly dance or a brutal axe in a whirlwind of blows, your mastery of the blade allows you to dominate close-quarters combat.  With every flick of the wrist and precise footwork, you turn the art of swordsmanship into a lethal symphony.

While this skill normally uses Dexterity, a character with the trait, [[legacy:traits:Blade Dancer]] may use Agility instead.
