Grasp of Undeath

[Chthonic, Evil]

Class:Gravelord's Regalia
Chakra: Wrist
Saving Throw:Fortitude or Will; see text

Bands of rotting flesh meld with your wrists, imbuing your touch with the energies of unlife.

Weaving this veil infuses your touch with energy that stills the energy of living beings. You can make a touch attack as a standard action against a living creature, if it hits the target takes 1d6 points of negative energy damage and must make a Fortitude saving throw. On a failed save, they are nauseated for 1 round. Living creatures healed by negative energy are not healed by this effect, but they do not take damage. This is a death effect.

When used against an undead creature, the undead takes no damage and must make a Will saving throw or flee as if panicked for 1d4 rounds.

Essence

For each odd-numbered point of essence invested in this veil, the damage dealt by this veils touch increases by 1d6. For every even-numbered point of essence invested, the duration of the nauseated and panicked conditions applied by this veil increases by 1 round.

Chakra Bind (Wrist)

Binding this veil to your Wrists chakra further empowers its effects, fully stilling the life energy that fuels living creatures. When a living creature fails their Fortitude saving throw against this veil, they are paralyzed for the duration instead of nauseated. They do not fall prone or drop any held items as part of this paralysis. If a creature passes their saving throw against this effect, they cannot be paralyzed by this ability for 24 hours. If they fail a Fortitude saving throw against the veil during this time, they are nauseated instead of paralyzed.
