Explanation: |
When you cast this spell, roll to strike your target as if you were shooting a bow (+30 to strike for being hurled). It does not matter if your foe is wearing armor or not, for this spell seeps through the cracks of armor to touch the flesh of your target.
If successful, this spell will inject the target with a localized poison that will cause instant damage, and then certain "Damage" per turn until the "Duration" ends.
A target can be struck multiple times, even in the same area, to increase the damage taken per turn.
If the target is struck in the head, damage, as well as hallucinations will commence until the "Duration" has expired. These hallucinations will cause the targeted to strike out at his or her own allies now and then (roll a D6 - if a 1 is rolled, this will indicate the targeted will strike out unwittingly at his or her own).
Unless you wish otherwise, this will strike a random area of the body. If you wish to strike a specific area, you must use the following rules: "Combat, Chance to hit a certain area during:". |
