New Feat: Way of the Sash

Elves are agile and graceful people who love music and dance. Their flowing movements are often enhanced using lengths of cloth including ribbons and scarves or cloaks that mimic the wind and wave they are connected to. Some elves learn to use these items of clothing in combat, becoming able to defend themselves without any weapon. This study is known as the Way of the Sash.
