− | Certain weapons - whips, nets, bolas - can be used to entangle an opponent. An entanglement attack is made with Melee or Ranged, depending on the type of weapon, and has a -1 penalty. If successful, the attack does no damage but the target becomes entangled. While entangled, the target has a -3 penalty to all actions that require the free use of his or her limbs, except for rolls to break free of the entanglement. Such a roll takes one action, unless it achieves a Mighty Success, in which case the target may act normally in the same round as breaking free. The roll to break free can be made with Strength+Barbarian (in which case it breaks the weapon upon success), Agility+Dancer or Agility+Gladiator.

An entanglement must be actively maintained by the attacker, or the target gets loose without the need for a roll. The attacker can perform attacks on the target or on other enemies while still maintaining the entanglement, but his or her damage die is capped at 1d3. The attacker can of course not use the weapon used for the entanglement in any way while still maintaining the entanglement. | An entanglement must be actively maintained by the attacker, or the target gets loose without the need for a roll.
