STONE BONES
Stone Dragon (Strike)
Level: Crusader 1, swordsage 1, war-
blade 1
Initiation Action: 1 standard action
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 1 round
You focus your energy to enhance your
defenses, drawing on the power of your
weapon?s impact with a foe to toughen
yourself against a counterattack.
The Stone Dragon tradition teaches its
disciples to shrug off attacks through a
combination of mental focus, pure tough-
ness, and resilience. When you make a
successful melee attack, you attune your
mind and body to such an incredible
extent that only the sharpest weapons
can injure you. Lesser armaments cause
mere bruises and minor cuts.
When you use this maneuver, you
make a single melee attack. If this
attack hits, you gain damage reduction
5/adamantine for 1 round.
