A Template:L enters martial trance when it is fighting multiple enemies at once. The trance offers a boost to the creature's abilities - a creature in a martial trance has a significantly increased chance of blocking or parrying an attack, and is more likely to hit their opponent. However, it does not give a direct damage bonus like enraged. The symbol for a dwarf in a trance is ! which will flash over his Template:L.
Template:L are the only creatures which enter martial trances without Template:L, the RAW tag which determines this also causes Template:Ls. A dwarven adventurer may also enter a martial trance in Template:L. Fresh recruits can, when pressed to fight, go into martial trance as well.
This is also a great way to dispose of Template:L in adventurer mode, as you can dodge most of their attacks and most of your attacks will land successfully regardless of the difficulty of the shot.
