Skill Rules & Full Description
This skill allows the character to augment a Killing Blow done with their bare hands. Normally, a bare hand can only do 1 point of damage for Killing Blows only; a character with this skill can do 10 points of magical damage with their bare handed Killing Blows.
The character must say: “One Killing Blow, Two Killing Blow, Three Killing Blow, Ten Magic”. You may do less than 10 points of damage, but it is always magical damage. This skill can be blocked with the use of a defense that stops magical attacks. It can be performed any number of times after it is purchased.
Use of this skill does not require a focus. No other Warlock skills can be used with this skill.
