Snipped from a Diku MUD I used to play.
CIRCLE
Usage : circle <monster>
Level/Class: 10th Thief
Circle allows you to perform a half strength backstab while a mobile is engaged
in combat. For circle to work the mobile cannot be directly attacking you.
The mobiles attack will switch to you after the circle. Circle carries
a three round battle lag following its usage.

It's a pretty cool skill, I'm planning to add it to my own MUD. Hope this helps.
