| Syntax: None. Automatic Skill.
Dedicated martial artists often manage to avoid blows with spectacular evasive
actions. This involves things like running up a wall and performing a backflip
to land behind a charging attacker, rows of backflips to get away from an
opponent and jumping around on one's hands. All these actions improve a skilled
fighter's chance to dodge when he fights with his hands free.
Normally both hands must be free to receive any bonus (using a wrist shield
counts as a partially free hand, for a partial bonus). Mastery of the skill
enables its use with only one hand free, at 80%/100% effectiveness.
Wielding a single one-handed weapon counts as having a free off-hand.
