Pureblade
This specialization of Knighthood concentrates on two-handed swords. When used by trained warriors, these mighty weapons can be swung with apparent ease, though to anyone else they are incredibly unwieldy. The higher the skill, the more deadly and varied the effects. |

Greatsword
Syntax |
STRIKE <target> [LEFT|RIGHT] [<bodypart>] [<modifier> [<modifier args>]] |
As a Pureblade, your skill with two-handed swords is such that you now attack even faster. Additionally, as you train in the Pureblade skill, you will learn to apply modifiers to your strikes, which increase the effectiveness of your attacks even further.
Additional Notes: |
Skills with the syntax "Modifier" are used to fill the <modifier> argument of Strike. For example, STRIKE ROARK OPENCHEST |
OpenChest
Syntax |
Modifier |

Warcry
Syntax |
WARCRY |
Your warcry is now so powerful and intimidating that many creatures attacking your allies will be forced to consider you their primary target. You will not be able to produce a proper warcry while off-balance or on the floor, and most loyal creatures are simply so devoted to their cause that your warcry will have no effect.
