Throw Person
Simple Action
If the character has successfully engaged in a Clinch or Subduing action against an opponent, he may then attempt to throw their opponent. Throw person can also be done as an Interrupt Action (–10 from Initiative Score) after successfully blocking an opponent’s attack. A throw is done using the leverage of the opponent’s body and/or force of action into projecting the opponent to the ground. The character rolls an Unarmed Combat Attack Test, opposed as normal. If the character succeeds and character’s Strength + net hits exceed the opponent’s Physical Limit, the opponent can then be thrown up to a number of meters equal to the net hits scored on the test. The maximum distance that a character can throw an opponent is the difference in the character’s Strength minus the opponent’s Body in meters. If this distance value is less than 0, then the maximum distance is 0, meaning less than one meter away from the character. The opponent suffers damage equal to the net successes of the test, not the distance thrown. At the end of the throw, the opponent is Prone. The opponent could suffer additional damage at the location where he is thrown, such as a fire pit or into the mouth of a sarlacc. If the character is successful in the attack but does not exceed the opponent’s Physical Limit, the opponent is not thrown and is still standing but remains in a Clinch or Subduing grip. Failure means the target is not thrown and also escapes the character’s grip.
Note that use of this action requires Martial Art training.
