Cutthroat Point Buy is part of the [[Proficiency]] System. Cutthroat Point Buy is specifically designed for dextrous characters that prefer melee over ranged combat. As a result, Cutthroat Point Buy only allows for lightweight weapons such as daggers or rapiers, and bars the user from utilizing Melee Point Buy packs when in use. Cutthroat Point Buy Abilities require the Stance Ability provided for free as soon as a single Point Buy Pack is purchased from this selection.
