ELBOW KICK KNEE (2399)

Syntax: elbow
Syntax: kick
Syntax: knee

These skills allow the adventurer to gain an extra attack in combat, a
powerful but simple unarmed strike.  This does not always land, but an
accurate attack will not be parried or otherwise defended against.

Elbow strikes are the quickest of the three, and kicks are the slowest,
but most painful.  Different techniques may have more or less success
depending on the relative sizes of you and your foe.

Each class's guild teaches their initiates these skills slightly differently.
As two examples, a thief would be taught to focus on quick, accurate strikes,
whereas a berserker trainer will ignore finesse in favor of raw power.
