Indomitable Warrior
Playtest 3.2 / 4th EdSkill Rules & Full Description
Once purchased, this skill changes how the character interacts with certain damaging attacks.
- Kill Spell (or life effect if the character is affected by healing instead), Destroy Being Spellsong, and Soul Strike skill mortally wounds the character instead of bringing them to the Brink of Death. If they are already Mortally Wounded, they are brought to the Brink of Death.
- The Slay and Assassinate skills bring the character to -1 Body Points instead of Mortally Wounded.
- An Eldritch Attack will bring the character with this skill to Mortally Wounded. A second Eldritch attack will bring the character to the Brink of Death and destroy their items, just like standard Eldritch attack definition.
When the character reaches 0 or -1 Body Points from damage, they may invoke this skill by calling out, “I shall not die!” The character may continue fighting normally or perform any other action for 10 seconds. At the end of the 10 seconds, the character will be Mortally Wounded. The character is not immune to other skills, effects or spells, so a Kill spell or Slay skill, for example, will still stop the character. The character becomes immune to Ice Cast, Pin and Bind spells for the 10 seconds after activating this skill. The character cannot be healed until the effect ends.
