Duelist's Form [one-action] Feat 16Archetype Stance Source Battlecry! pg. 55Archetype Aldori DuelistPrerequisites Aldori Duelist DedicationRequirements You are wielding only an
Aldori dueling sword and have your other hand or hands free; you are not
fatigued.
Many assume that a duelist's habit of fighting with one hand behind their back or on their hip is an insult or self-restriction. This could not be further from the truth. Fighting with a single hand dictates mastery and heightens the duelist's focus by narrowing points of interest, allowing them to move and react to changing situations with unnatural speed. While in this stance, you are
quickened. You can use this extra action only to
Step or use a single-action activity gained from the Aldori duelist archetype. If you use your free hand for anything, this stance ends. When this stance ends, you become
fatigued until you rest for at least 10 minutes.
