I Am Not Left Handed
Surprise your opponent by switching from your weak hand to your dominant hand.
Benefit: You have learned to fight with your off-hand long enough to lull your opponents into a sense of security, only to spring to your dominant hand and take them off guard. In order to make use of this trait you must attack with only a one-handed weapon for at least 3 rounds in an encounter. You take a -2 on attack rolls, and deal half strength for determining damage. At the end of the 3rd round you can choose to switch the weapon to your other hand, gaining a +4 on attack rolls and strength and a half to damage (as well as treating it as a two-handed weapon when beneficial, in spite of using only one hand) for the rest of the encounter. This trick only works once; subsequent encounters with creatures who have seen you pull this trick take normal attack rolls and damage.
Drawback: To gain the benefits, you must gimp yourself for 3 rounds.
Roleplaying Ideas: Though it implies left and right hands, it doesn't really matter which you are. You could also be I Am Not Right Handed.
