Battle, Combat, and Surprise
Some effects may only be used in or out of combat. Other effects last the length of a battle. Both conditions have definitions within the rules of Knight Realms for consistency.
A character is considered to be in combat if she makes an attack other than a surprise attack or if she is struck by or defends against the attack of another by any means. Being in combat lasts until one minute has passed from the last action that put her in combat.
A character can make a surprise attack (a skill requiring surprise) only if she is not currently in combat.
A battle lasts until a character cannot see or hear the activity of combat for ten minutes.
A character that is Imprisoned does not count time towards being out of combat or the end of a battle while in this state.

The Surprise part hasn't changed in intent, but is now included with the End of Combat / Battle for ease of use.
