Your character must have purchased the Parry
talent to benefit from this talent. When your
character suffers a hit from a melee combat
check and uses Parry to reduce the damage
from that hit, after the attack is resolved, you
may spend 1 Despair or 3 Threat from the
attacker’s check to use this talent. Then, your
character automatically hits the attacker with a
Brawl or Melee weapon your character is
wielding. The hit deals the weapon’s base
damage, plus any damage from applicable
talents or abilities. Your character can’t use this
talent if the original attack incapacitates them.
