CIRCLE [SKILL COMMAND]

Type: Combat
Target: Occupied opponent
Syntax: circle <target>, or just circle

Description:
 Circling is an in-combat attack that requires stealth to be performed
 successfully. By circling, you will try to silently move around to a victim's
 back to attack them from behind.

 To be able to perform a circle attack, your victim will need to be focusing
 their melee attacks on something else (i.e. be engaged to someone else). 

 Also, to be able to circle an enemy you need to have some skill in moving
 silently, as well as be wielding a small weapon, such as a knife or a dagger.

 If your circle succeeds you will deal a significant amount of damage to your
 enemy, as well as force that enemy to focus its attacks on you (i.e. you and
 enemy will be engaged to eachother.)

 Your rate of success in this maneuver will of course be dependent on your
 proficiency in the skill, as well as the victims awareness and perception. 

 NOTE: NPC's that have been circled will take precautions, like a player would
 do, to not to get spam circled continuously by the same group. The mobile will
 memorize for a specific time span the circle-attempts made on them, and thus
 will try to avoid further tries. Therefore, expect some failures here.
