Skill Deception

Requirements You are within melee reach of the target you attempt to Feint.

With a misleading flourish, you leave an opponent unprepared for your real attack. Attempt a Deception check against your target's Perception DC.

Critical SuccessYou throw your enemy's defenses against you entirely off. The target is off-guard against melee attacks that you attempt against it until the end of your next turn.

SuccessYour foe is fooled, but only momentarily. The target is off-guard against the next melee attack that you attempt against it before the end of your current turn.

Critical FailureYour feint backfires. You are off-guard against melee attacks the target attempts against you until the end of your next turn.
