The focus a thief places on speed hones his reflexes to sometimes mitigate the strength of a sudden, particularly harsh blow by rolling with it. Thrown spears, bolts of fire or ice, and rays of light cast from another room, and the breath of dragonkin are also subject to this reflexive roll.

After such a swift, unplanned movement, a thief may not benefit from this skill for a time after its use.
