>You try to shift the fall, but you are not in a position to really roll leftward, and just sort of fall on your side.
>The brute wastes little time in moving in, raising a foot to bring down on your side!

>You can make a wave per knife thrown; you can make some reasonably complex patterns as long as you have the knifes onhand.

Right, I think a timestop is in order people. Rolling seems like the only option we have otherwise and it seems like a really bad option.

Unless you guys expect a knife throw directly on the foot to stop it from coming down, which I doubt.

>You sent a couple knives at the backs of her legs and ankles. They may not hamstring her, but at least they should impede her movements a bit.
>Time resumes once again, you are a few yards behind her now. Her foot comes down forcefully where you were laying, and she loses balance from the lack of an expected step. Then your knives fly straight and true...and bounce off her skin as if they were nothing more than paper darts.

>You send a tight cross of knife danmaku at the brute as she recovers from her stumble. She looks over, her heavy brow furrowed, as you prepare the arrowheads. The brute starts to move, but the knives catch her full in the back, forcing a snarl from her lips and causing her to stumble. Your arrowheads follow closely after, but she continues to stumble away, toward your right, and they just pass her by.
