Description: Old Warhawk texts speak of a series of techniques known as 'the unnamed' (ungennant), a set of secret grappling maneuvers able to incapacitate. Whether these refer to the current techniques for pinning the foe or whether the older methods have been lost is a matter of wild speculation since the original writer never recorded the details. With this skill, the fighter extends beyond just grappling to pin and immobilize. The approach is slow and thus easily interrupted. Still, if successful, the opponent will be left defenseless for a prolonged period. This skill will hold the foe even longer if following from a grapple or winding.
