    Excellent, then a novice Immortal with little combat experience can quickly be on equal terms with other Immortals by using a trap to incapacitate his opponent, then take his head & gain his caliber of fighting skills.

    One thing I always wondered about, when you defeat an Immortal & get his Quickening (Power, Lifeforce, Knowledge), does that include all their fighting skills as well?
