- Atheltics to push your enemy
- Deception to manipulate your enemy into a poor position

- Persuasion to throw your enemy off balance with careful words

Interaction Attack Effects
- If your Interaction Attack Test equals or exceeds the DN, several effects are possible
- You must choose to mnake the target Hindered (p.199) or Vulnerable (p.200); this effect lasts until the start of your next Turn
- If multiple targets are affected by the same Interaction Attack, all targets suffer the same effect
- Shifts may be used to increase the Defence or DN penalty by 1 for each Shift
Player’s Call
- If you Shift 3 or more Exalted Icons on an Interaction Attack, the result is a ‘Player’s Call’
- You can negotiate with the GM to trigger an effect of your choice that is appropriate to the circumstances
