Ash of War: Assassin’s Gambit

Assassin’s Gambit costs you a self-inflicted wound but makes you nearly invisible and silences your footsteps for a while.

It grants the Occult affinity and works on small and medium straight swords and thrusting swords. It is a fun tool for stealthy, Arcane-leaning builds.
