The Avoid Blow talent allows a character to dodge blows directed at him in combat at the last minute. Any time an opponent attacks a character with the Avoid Blow talent, the attacked individual makes an Avoid Blow Test to dodge the blow before it causes damage. If he rolls a result equal to or higher than that of the opponent's Attack Test, the target avoids the blow. This means that he or she saw the attack coming and dodged out of the way at the last minute. Your character cannot use the Avoid Blow Talent to dodge blind-side attacks, however. Avoid Blow can only be used once per Combat Round. A character who attempts and fails to use Avoid Blow is knocked down, whether or not the blow would normally have done so. Avoid Blow can be used in the same round as an Attack Test.
