SearchSkill Rescue
This skill will allow your character, if successful, to pull a comrade out of combat and take his/her place. This is the only way, short of one's comrade fleeing, to remove the 'primary' combatant (the character getting hit by the opponent) from a fight.
Sometimes your friend may be fighting more than one person. If you have enough skill, you can specify which of your friend's attackers you want to rescue them from.
Syntax:
rescue <character name> [attacker]
Example:
> rescue jhalavar
Note:
This skill can be used either before your character becomes involved in combat, or after. Once your character has successfully rescued your comrade, you are now the primary combatant. If you want to stop fighting them, you can flee or use disengage.
Delay:
after
