Surprise Turn

The Surprise Turn is the first turn of combat. An attacker starts the combat, be it the player character or not. If combat may be ended before the target can react (usually through killing), there's usually no consequences for the action. if not, the target gets a turn to defend himself/herself/itself. After the defender reacts, all other participants receives a turn based upon their sequence. After every participant acts once, the order of combat is determined solely on sequence from then on.
