Description
- You growl dire predictions of agony to your victims, you hands strangling and wringing a scrap of heart meat. Your hands become livid, and then are covered with a writhing black aura. At the crescendo of your hateful proclamations, you cast forth a black cloud of writhing energy.
All creatures wholly or partially in the area of effect as defined above suffer (Circle 2 damage): 1d6 points of damage per character level (max 6d6 at character level 6) of necrotic (energy, uncommon) damage and are Jostled until the end of the encounter. Creatures are allowed a saving throw as defined above to take half damage and negate the jostled condition.
If a targeted creature has spell resistance, the wielder of the rod must first make a Bailiwick skill check against the target's Maneuver Defense. If they equal or exceed this number, the spell is resolved against the target as normal. If the check fails, the spell is cast from the rod (using up a charge) but has no effect on the target creature.
