Butterfly's Kiss The warrior can make nonlethal Strikes with a butterfly sword without taking a penalty.
Mastermind's Eye When the warrior successfully identifies a creature using Recall Knowledge, that creature is flat-footed against their attacks until the start of its next turn; if they critically succeed, it's flat-footed against their attacks for 1 minute.
Sneak Attack The warrior's Strikes deal an additional 1d6 precision damage to flat-footed creatures.
Studied Strike The warrior makes a telegraphed attack to learn about their foe. They make a melee Strike. On a hit, they can immediately attempt a check to Recall Knowledge about the target. On a critical hit, they gain a +2 circumstance bonus to the check to Recall Knowledge. The target is then temporarily immune to Studied Strike for 1 day.
