Ust sreen

Ust Sreen, meaning "first danger", was a fighting style taught among drow, that put importance on fast reaction on the first danger on sight.

Description
As the name "first danger" suggested, the fighting style was about fast reaction on the first enemy and be the first danger to the same.

The majority of drow combat groups, especially scout groups, had at least one user of this style among them. That individual's role was it to react fast and shoot a poisoned bolt to incapacitate the first enemy before combat really began.

Training
Being about reacting fast, users improved their readiness to take the initiative in combat, so they could be the first to act. Furthermore, due to a fast reaction being useless in itself, users also trained their abilities to draw a weapon quickly.

The style gave fast reactions and was certainly useful at start of combat but due to being almost useless in prolonged combat users also tended to learn other styles to give themselves offensive abilities.

Reputation
Drow society was one in which vigilance was paramount, and thus the basics of this style were part of the standard curriculum of every drow fighting academy.
