[QUOTE="malraux, post: 4074392, member: 24352"] Marking a target, like the rogue's ability to move a character, probably involves making an attack against the target. So yes, it strikes me a plausible that your fighter could mark his friend the wizard to remove the mark of the other person. But I doubt it'll happen much like that in game. First, I'd guess the defender needs to spend an action to do it (or more likely it rides on an action that he takes). Second, I can't see this marking also not force the defender to attack his mark. So if your melee guy wants to spend a round not defending but instead attacking the party, that seems like a legit choice, if suboptimal. As for such a thing making sense, Regdar notices that Krusk is focusing entirely on the fighter at the other end of the room, ignoring all the attacks from the goblins surrounding him. To get the fool's attention, Regdar slaps him hard with the flat of his blade. Krusk "wakes up" and begins to focus on the goblin hoard before going after the fighter. Does this not make sense?
