In Game Description

Acrobatics is the skill of moving in a dextrous, agile manner. Many of its abilities are quite showy, but effective nonetheless. Most acrobatics abilities are concerned with movement and agility, but there are a fair number of offensive abilities scattered in there as well. As with the similar, though more aggressive, skill of fisticuffs, acrobatics can be useful for even the weapon user, as you never know when you could be disarmed.
