Aftermath of the War

In the aftermath of the war he assisted as much as he could. As a reward for his great service, a Ginaz teacher was brought on Azhar to train him, as well as a few others. During the next eight years, Alexi distinguished himself impressing everyone including the sword master himself.

Staying at the top of his class, he earned his reputation as the planet's strongest duelist. Meanwhile his wife, Fiala, attended to the needs of the House, keeping operations on track, managing his advisors and tackling any political difficulties.

Swordmaster of Ginaz

Battle Perception

You cannot be surprised or ambushed in combat. You always get an action on any round you are being attacked and suffer no penalty for being caught off guard. Additionally, if you have a weapon available, you need not spend an action or suffer a penalty to ready it.

Blur of Blades

You are so adept at sword fighting and fencing that you can move your melee weapon (typically a sword) back and forth between guard zones — right or left — instantly, bypassing any defense your opponent may have in the facing guard position. When you move a weapon asset in a duel or skirmish, you may move it two zones instead of just one.

Lightning Strike

If you are not surprised or being ambushed, you have a free action you may take on the first round of combat before anyone else. This is in addition to your normal action that round, which takes place as usual.

Steel Focus

As soon as a physical conflict (Duel, Skirmish, or Warfare) begins, you gain a bonus point of Determination. This point is removed at the end of the conflict, whether it has been spent or not.

Weapon Focus

When making an attack while using any sword in combat, you may substitute any one d20 in your dice pool for a result of 1, without rolling, as if spending a point of Determination. This may also be used in addition to any Determination spent, or any re-rolls for another Talent, if desired.
