                 do dodge aggressively
                 do dodge off

Using cunning tricks, blocks, and nimble movement a character can
avoid or partially avoid attacks. However, one cannot dodge everything
and the more attacks they are subjected to each round the greater the
chance of failing to dodge and/or taking part of the blow. Signalling,
perhaps, the need to escape.

The act of dodging takes no action and you can immediately try
another skill.

Dodge can be toggled on by selecting "aggressively" or turned off
by selecting "passively" or "off". If toggled on, you will
automatically attempt to dodge while performing a major attack like
backstab or bludgeon.

When you dodge you have a great chance of ignoring hitbacks
while performing backstab or bludgeon.
