Requires: Dodge I and Melee Weapon (hand, short, medium, short-flex, or medium-flex) I

The fighting style of expert fencers, you have defensive skills that more than make up for a lack of shield or secondary parrying weapon. A single-weaponed duelist is not poorly equipped by having only a single one-handed weapon, but rather has the freedom and focus that other warriors may lack, even when facing multiple opponents. When using a weapon in one hand you not only leave your other hand free to grab, hold a lantern, flip the bird, whatever, but you also receive a +3 to parries and three additional parries per round.
