Tower's cool-headed caution won him countless battles during the wars. (Abilities: Cleave, Great Cleave, Trip, Intimidate)


	Trip	Using this attack, you may trip the target, rendering it prone. Some creatures may be immune to this effect. A successful Balance check negates this effect. (DC 10 + Str mod)

If you are using a weapon and a shield, this bonus to threat generation is increased.\n\nDetails: The bonus/penalty you gain is 4 for each size category difference between you and your target.
