Infighting is a set of combat conditions wherein you and your opponent are very close, i.e. within grappling distance.

Whenever anyone makes an Infighting Attack, the following rules apply:

• The target must be within the attacker's melee reach.
• The attack itself is subject to normal hit/miss chance.
• The attack provokes an attack of opportunity.
• Assuming the attempt hits, the attacker must win an Infighting Check to succeed.

An Infighting Check is always made opposed--that is, the defender sets the DC for the attacker's roll.

The attacker's roll is as follows:

• 1d20 + Str bonus + Size Modifier

The defender may choose between the following rolls:

• 1d20 + Str bonus + Size Modifier
• 1d20 + Dex bonus + Size Modifier

If the attacker's roll is greater than the defender's, the attacker wins.

If the attacker's roll is equal to or lower than the defender's, the attacker loses.
