Swap Places

Reactive Teamwork Talent. Costs 1 Reaction Point when the trigger happens, with your bonded partner within Close range. The RP cost never changes at any tier.

Trigger: Your bonded partner is adjacent to you and is about to be forcibly moved, Grappled or Restrained.

Tier 1 (Level 1): The two of you instantly swap places: you take their position, and whatever was about to happen to them there if it depends on position, while they end up in your old space.

Tier 2 (Level 5): As Tier 1, but you no longer need to be adjacent; anywhere within Close range will do.

Tier 3 (Level 9): As Tier 2. You may also spend 1 Strain as part of the reaction to give your partner 1 level of Advantage on their next check or save to escape or resist whatever caused the swap.

Tier 4 (Level 13): As Tier 3, but you may instead spend 2 Strain to give 2 levels of Advantage.
