The Parry skill is a special defense skill, which allows the character to negate a damaging weapon attack, by simply stating “Critical Parry” thus using up the skill.

A Parry will defend against any attack which the weapon itself could defend against other than a Sneak Attack such as an Assassinate. In general, this means 90 degreed from forward center on the offside, and 135 degrees from forward center on the weapon side. Please keep good sportsmanship in mind.

Certain Taglines such as the “Massive” tagline cannot be defended against when using a Parry.

Certain attacks have an "Unparriable" portion to their tagline Those attacks cannot be Parried or Blocked, but they can be Dodged or Evaded.

The player may purchase this skill once after gaining two (2) levels of the Weapon Damage skill and other prerequisites.

They may then purchase this skill each time they gain an additional two (2) levels of the Weapon Damage skill. Thus, it is possible for a player with Weapon Damage +13 to have 6.
