Diversity of abilities gives the creature different ways to act in different situations, and helps guide you as the GM. For instance, a combat creature might have one ability it uses to get into position, another to use when it wants to focus damage on a single enemy, and a third that’s more defensive.\r\n</column>\r\n\r\n<column gap=\"medium\">\r\n\r\n</column>\r\n\r\n</row>\n\n<document level=\"2\" id=\"rules-1025\" />\r\n\r\n<document level=\"2\" id=\"rules-1029\" />\r\n\r\n<document level=\"2\" id=\"rules-1032\" />\r\n\r\n<document level=\"2\" id=\"rules-1033\" />\r\n\r\n<document level=\"2\" id=\"rules-1035\" />\r\n\r\n<document level=\"2\" id=\"rules-1037\" />",
