Throwing Kunai
Kunai knives take a DEX / STR roll to connect, and do Damage depending on your characters experience with them. You may throw multiple kunai to a maximum of 5. If you throw Multiple then it becomes that many attack rolls, but each Kunai thrown past 1 makes a -1. So if you attack with 3, and roll a 25 attack, the first Kunai attack is 25, second is 24, and third is 23. The opponent then Defends with one roll vs all Three kunai. Throwing with STR adds STR bonus, but you may not throw multiple Kunai. Note: The final Damage on multiple kunai is Qualified as One Hit vs DR. So if your Opponent has 6 DR, it isnt 6 DR vs Each Kunai that hits, its all three Kunai Dmg added together vs the 6 DR.
