HAMMERSTRIKE
Syntax: Hammer Strike
A hammerstrike hits with the bottom of a clenched fist, using an action like swinging a hammer, but can also be used horizontally like a backfist strike using the bottom fist.
This strike will not damage the bones of the hands as there is no compression of the knuckles or metacarpals, and there is no leverage to bendthe wrist. This motion strikes cricket ball sized areas on the body, henceis particularly effective for striking the Occiput, the temples, the nose, the mandible, the wrist (for blocking punches), the sternum, and the ear (although a cupped hand is more effective).
This skill is available at level 28.
RP Combat Information:

Remarks: As you pummel the target with your clenched fists, the target must make a <Fortitude> or <Reflex> saving throw (their choice). If they fail, the victim is knocked prone or moved 15 ft. away from you (your choice).
