Drawback: The character must commit to an attack against an opponent during the first turn of combat to gain the advantage of this maneuver.If the Storyteller utilizes the optional initiative rule from page 151 of the World of Darkness Sourcebook, this bonus applies on any turn in which the character’s weapon begins the turn sheathed. If the character begins combat with his weapon sheathed, he adds his rating in the Weaponry Skill to his Initiative modifier. The character sharpens his already capable ability to quickly enter combat.
