Sap

                   --=== Help for Rogue Command (sap) ===--

Syntax: Sap <target>

Sap
Time is a tricky thing. There's not always enough of it to kill everyone - sometimes the guard are on their way and you've gotta get out quickly. There are also times when you'd quite like to take out that warmage but their bodyguard just won't get out of the way. On these occasions the rogue toolkit provides the humble 'sap'. Not quite as tricky a technique as the more comprehensive 'Knock out', this shares its non-lethal intent. Sneaking up on your victim, a sharp blow to the back of the head sends them reeling, unable to focus or concentrate on what's going on - taking them out of the fight for a significant length of time. It should be noted this trick has its limits. First and most importantly, any direct attack on the target, whether physical or magical, will jolt them out of their dazed state. Secondly, for reasons not fully understood, the target will heal rapidly whilst dazed. Talented assassins can also use a variant of this attack to daze their opponents briefly in combat, interrupting spellcasting.
