(Anyone who witnesses you activate this Effect is very likely to be disturbed to see Souls splitting and tearing in ways unimaginable, your dead love, friends and family, it does not matter, all dead souls burn and incinerate in a fiery flame. You must actively and obviously be using Sword.)

In your last stand, you have gotten desperate. No one else is left, Only you and the enemies ahead.... Your blades lack the strength.... But your soul still lingers....

Increase your sacrificial Injury's Severity by 1 and spend an Action. Select a Location within 150 feet. This Effect cannot be used unless the only one left in your party and you are in a losing battle. You must actively and obviously use Sword to activate this Effect. The area within 50 feet of the chosen Location immediately and obviously becomes imminently dangerous. Roll Brawn + Melee at Difficulty 6. Targets inside the radius may attempt an appropriate Reaction at GM’s discretion. Finding a physical barrier to use as cover will cut total Damage taken in half (applies after Reaction roll but before Armor).

If the Outcome is positive, your blast hits everything within 50 feet of the chosen Location with Damage equal to your Outcome + 4.

Damage spreads to targets beyond the edge of the initial radius, decreasing by 2 Damage for every 5 feet traveled. For the next 3 Rounds following the initial blast, this Effect will deal a new blast of damage to any targets remaining within range of the chosen Location. The damage decays by 2 each Round.

Any flammable Objects within the radius during the blast will catch fire, and any being who takes at least 4 Damage will catch fire. Starting the Round after they caught fire, flaming targets take 2 Damage per Round until the fire is extinguished.

If you successfully hit your target, the value of any Armor they are wearing is reduced by 2. For material armor, this penalty lasts until it is repaired. For intrinsic armor, it lasts until the end of Combat and any relevant wound is healed.

  • The sacrificial Injury received from activating this Effect cannot be prevented by any means or healed before 1 day has passed. It is shared with all Effects that use sacrifice. This Injury does not requires Stabilization or cause Battle Scars when it becomes Severe.
