I'll admit this edge seemed one very much prone to being only for people "in the know"
Stealth edge requirements like this one had are BS. Of course, I probably could have asked for the specifics back in 2010(ish), but who knows what answer I would have gotten then. Probably something vague like PK more at all ranks since edge mechanics were more hush hush at the time then they are now.

I feel like it would have been extremely useful on a village bard that was so vulnerable to being bashed and tripped. Command initiative is so very valuable to a bard.

I didn't know Nep played a bard that had it.
