Teuvel'Khilat / Bane

Powers

Bane

The sword has special capabilities against particular opponents. Bonuses apply to groups or specific types of opponents.

Each owner can add a new bane target or enhance the capability against an existing target. Rangers and other classes with specific species enemies have that opponent added or enhanced.

Detection

The sword can detect any of its bane targets when they are within 30’. The wielder receives an empathic warning of a bane opponent. Each encounter with a particular group or type increases the chance by 10% that the wielder can identify the type of opponent by the feeling of the empathic warning alone.

During combat, additional telltale signs may be provided by the sword. If a critical hit power of a regular power of the blade would be applied for a critical hit, then the sword may temporarily apply that regular power at the time of the hit, canceling out any other incompatible powers of the blade.

Combat Bonus

The sword grants the indicated bonus to hit and damage. Multiple bonuses can be applied based on characteristics, group and type; but only one bonus for a broad group and one bonus for a specific type can apply. The highest bonus for a group or type is applied.

Critical Hits and Special Powers

Bane bonuses include special powers applied when a critical hit is made. The power associated with the most specific category is used, selecting the special power associated with the specific type of creature, followed by the group if a specific type doesn’t apply, and finally using any power associated with the highest applied bonus from a broad characteristic.

The special power is selected from an existing critical hit power of the sword, or a new special power added specifically for that bane opponent. Existing critical hit powers take effect, even if that sword power is not currently active.

Every time a particular bane is enhanced, the existing critical hit power can be increased, or changed to a new critical hit power of the blade, or a new special power added.
