Mind [Mind-Affecting]
Difficulty Class: 9
Channeling Time: 1 standard action
Range: 30 ft.
Target: One creature
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Will half
You attack the self-awareness and confidence of your opponent, leaving him less certain of himself and visibly less imposing.
You attack the target’s charisma. This incantation deals 4 points of Charisma damage to the target. A successful Will saving throw halves the ability damage. This incantation cannot be used against creatures with a Charisma score lower than 3.
Enhance: You can enhance this incantation in one or more of the following ways.
For every 8 points by which you increase the DC, this incantation deals 4 additional points of Charisma damage.
If you increase the DC by 8, this incantation deals ability burn instead. This is a special form of ability damage that cannot be healed magically or psionically. It only returns through natural healing.
If you increase the DC by 4, this incantation deals ability drain instead. The creature can only regain these ability points through magical or psionic means. Unlike normal ability drain, however, you do not gain temporary hit points when you channel this incantation.
