AN ATTACK LEAVING A SHARP OBJECT PENETRATING THE VICTIM. STABS DIFFER FROM IMPALES IN THAT THE VICTIM MAY STILL ACT FREELY.

FOR EACH STAB A SLASHER HAS, THEY DEDUCT ONE DIE FROM ALL COMBAT ROLLS AND ALSO ONE FROM THEIR MOVEMENT SCORE. A STAB PERSISTS UNTIL ITS VICTIM EITHER SPENDS AN ACTION TO REMOVE IT, OR IS STRUCK WITH AN ATTACK.

STABBING WITH A WEAPON LOSES THE WEAPON IN THE VICTIM. SLASHERS STABBED WHILE ARMLESS CANNOT REMOVE THE OFFENDING ARTICLE AT ALL. CUE DIABOLICAL LAUGHTER.
