Sacrificial Strike
If performed from behind the target, the Priest will run up and dig his dagger into the victim's upper back, causing them to go limp and fall to the ground. The move is reminiscent of human sacrificial rites throughout the ancient world, such as those of the Mayan and Aztec.
If the move is performed while the target is facing the Priest, he will either kick the target's stomach, causing them to bend down, and then deal a strike to the victim's vertebra, or simply thrust the dagger into his targets abdomen, killing them instantly.
A similar move is performed by Ezio Auditore if he attacks an unarmed enemy with a short blade.
