Combat occurs when characters engage creatures or non-player characters in battle. There are three phases of combat.
Phases
- initiative - determines awareness and who goes first
- action - participants perform non-combat and combat actions; repeats until disengage phase
- disengage - combat is over when enemies are dead, have given up or fled, or the players die, give up, or flee.
Post-combat returns to normal gameplay and players may capture or loot enemies, etc.
