'MAELSTROM OF THE VEILS' (1393)

In the scriptures of the warrior-monks of Macalla, it was written that one's
duty overshadows all injury to the body.  To this end, they trained under any
duress imaginable, learning to fight from one knee, with their off hand, or
even without their sight.  One of the most successful techniques that came from
this training involved weeks of sight deprivation during exercises, as the 
monks learned to rely on hearing, instinctual foresight, and disturbances in 
the nearby air to anticipate the location of potential foes in their vicinity.
While they cannot identify a foe so easily, they have little difficulty lashing
out at who is nearby.  Finally, they can manipulate their carried gear nearly 
as well as if they were still sighted, such is their ability to recall and 
feel the location of each item.  More challenging tasks, such as getting 
things from containers, will still be beyond them.

(A warrior who comprehends this Legacy can address PCs or NPCs "by number"
even while blind.  For example, "dirt 2." will work, but "dirt kobold" will
not.)
