Surprise Attacks, Combat Addition

"Someone asked me once, what would bring me back to Dragonrealms?" This is my answer.

Each character with at least Expert in Brawling and the weapon wielded would have 1 suprise attack per dr day, that's 4 surprise attacks per real day.

Call it a skill, call it a feat, whatever.

The skill takes weapon ranks, expert for the weapon being weilded.
Coolness Factor with ACT.
On the coded side of the programming, is a list of words. nose to head, ear to head. Any reference of nose in the coolness factor before a person's name would mean that person would take damage to their head.
Full List: This is where damage is assigned after using ACT for an attack with the Surprise Attacks.
nose to head, ear to head, head, right eye, left eye. lips to head, hair to head, neck, right shoulder to chest, left shoulder to chest, tricep to chest, stomach to abdomen, gut to abdomen, abs to abdomen, left side to abdomen, right side to abdomen spine to back, lower back to back, right hip to right leg, left hip to left leg, and then something for the arms.

Sample of what I mean:

Barbarian roars at swamp troll. Swamp troll cowers.
>SAS
Prompt: Surprise Attack System Activated, use ACT to target.
>ACT dodges to the left and slams his Scimitar into the troll left side.
Barbarian dodges to the left and slams his Scimitar into the trolls left side.

An attack under the surprise attack skill unbalances you, but deals extra damage to the target, it also places you in the stance you set after your name. A coded prompt would look like this:
ACT
