Trigger: you successfully Dodge and Retreat

You must be able to Retreat, to use this ability. If you can’t Retreat (because you’re Reeling, Grappled, etc.) then you can’t use this Gift.

If you successfully Dodge an attack, you may declare you will exhaust this Gift. You swap places with a foe that’s within your Stride distance (usually 1m). The swap counts as your Retreat, even if it moves you closer to the attacker! (If you tied on your Dodge roll, the Retreat breaks the tie in your favor, as usual.)

The person you swapped places with must now defend against the attack you just dodged! They roll against the same attack dice you just dodged, and they may use any defense that they can – counter, parry, or dodge. (If they use their counter, they are attacking your attacker, not you, so they will usually choose parry or dodge.)
