approach -- close on someone or hang back (out of combat)

Same room only. This is where you stand relative to one person -- not a grid, not a facing.

How you play
  1. approach <name> -- walk up. Look lists them standing close to you.
  2. retreat <name> -- give ground. Look lists them keeping their distance from you.
  3. consider <name> -- the read mentions that distance.
  4. attack / rush -- the fight starts at that band instead of reach.

Walking out of the room clears it. Mid-fight, use lunge, grapple, or yank to close, or engagement ranged to open over time (help engagement). rush still snaps close and holds a ranged foe there for one beat.
