Your mother always said you were trouble. Now, your enemies know it, too.

Dastardly Strike

Whenever you make a successful attack against an opponent that is denied its Dexterity bonus to Reflex Defense, the target moves -1 step along the Condition Track.

Disruptive

By spending two Swift Actions, you can use your knack for causing trouble and instigating chaos to disrupt your enemies. Until the start of your next turn, you suppress all morale and insight bonuses applied to enemies in your line of sight.

Skirmisher

If you move at least 2 squares before you attack and end your move in a different square from where you started, you gain a +1 bonus on attack rolls until the start of your next turn.

Sneak Attack

Any time your opponent is Flat-Footed or otherwise denied its Dexterity bonus to Reflex Defense, you deal an additional 1d6 points of damage with a successful melee or ranged attack. You must be within 6 squares of the target to make a Sneak Attack with a ranged weapon.

You may select this Talent multiple times. Each time you select it, your Sneak Attack damage increases by +1d6 (maximum +10d6).

Walk the Line

Prerequisite: Disruptive

As a Standard Action, you can do or say something that catches your enemies off guard. All opponents within 6 squares of you, and within your line of sight take a -2 penalty to their Defenses until the start of your next turn. The penalty is negated if line of sight is broken.
