Power Play: MartialD&D Insider Article
The Skillful Warrior
By Ari Marmell

The new martial powers presented in this article allow you to play an Endurance-focused fighter, an Athletics-focused ranger, an Acrobatics-focused rogue, or an Intimidate-focused warlord. Each of these has a specific skill as a prerequisite, plus an effect designed to make the power incorporate or emulate the use of that skill as part of its execution.

With great agility, you cross harsh terrain and weave through foes just before making your enemy regret it ever confronted you in battle.
