The best brokanian offense involves powerful spells. They do not restrain their magic, regardless of type, and it is their main weapon in any field they use. When they have sufficient time, they will veil their attacks with deception and use a network of spies to inform them of their enemy's weaknesses before actually confronting them. They believe that sometimes the best offense is to ally yourself with your enemy and then strike them from within.

When a brokanian is caught unaware, death is imminent. Having little in the way of martial prowess, they have to rely on other means to defend themselves. Normally though, brokanian have plans within plans - in their lives, in their homes, in their habitats, and in their dealings - all to avoid being caught unaware.

In actual combat however, they rely on spellcalling or spellweaving to shape their defenses, either by summoning aid or by enhancing their defenses. Most brokanian default to evasive maneuvers when confronted; only at the last moment when all seems to have failed will they confront their enemy face to face. At that point, they will attempt to distract them until they are close enough to poison them with their fangs or claws.
