Why don't you say what the skills do
Evasive Action (perks: Evasion, Deflection)
Hows that for rampant?
I just hope they won't be too powerful, a Lasher shouldn't be able to beat a hyperion afterall.

I am officially an epoch.
Note: please sacrifice your goats responsibly, look up the proper pronunciation of Alex's name. We wouldn't want some other project receiving mystic power.
