Circle around

From Wormhole Sci-Fi MUD Homepage

This assassin skill is like backstab. In the heat of a fight, you can try to nimbly circle around your enemy's defences and put your dagger in their neck.

>circle (while fighting)

Note: Backstab is a prerequisite for the circle skill. Without 'backstab', your circling will achieve nothing. This shouldn't normally present a problem since all classes who get circle get backstab earlier... but if you use remort points to get Circle skill, don't forget to buy backstab as well.
