That arteries cloging seems like instakill. 20/20?

It's the exact same lung cancer spell I used to kill Leo early in the game, except targeted at a different area of the body. The lung cancer spell only gave a -1 to CMP. I admit the mechanics have changed since then, but 20/20 is just insane

For balance reasons, you could probably give No an endurance roll to survive the spell.

[Andres]

Yeah, 20/20 applying to all instakill spells is just insane. Why be creative in spell-use when the only thing that matters in the roll is the end result?

[FallacyofUrist]

"Okay. You're right, I was bluffing. But here's one thing I'm not bluffing about: I successfully allied... well... became the minion of the dragon. If you kill me the dragon won't be very happy with you."

[Sarrak]

"Who cares about dragon wraith? We won't be able to co-exist anyway. And although I'm quite indifferent about ending you - soulswapping was quite ingenious in my opinion - allowing you to simply walk off while dragon is breathing is a very dumb move."

It is a valid point. How abaut this: No enforced cost on instakill spells, but no targeting anything you can't see and target get's an END roll to survive Would such be acceptable?
Reason why I made instakill spells so absurdly hard to pull off is that I didin't want people running around using only a single spell. Then again, you can do so anyways but are not, so I gues it's okay.

Beirus pointed out that he had no shards for you to hide, and essenses are not physical bjects and as such couldn't be hidden. Just so that you wouldn't come looking for something that is not there.

((I think you mistook me for ATHATH because of the color used as I'm in his body now.))

[DreamerGhost]

((Yes. Yes I did.))

"I see. The way I see it, you people have three options: kill me, risking the wrath of the dragon as well as my family, or let me leave alive, risking my own wrath and the chance that I will get enough essences for another powerful spell like mind roulette, however the third option is in between: I believe that one of your number is a mind mage, correct? A geas could minimize the risk for both of us. I am most assuredly not an expert in getting out of geases."

[Beirus]

"Or we kill you, deal with the dragon if it even gives a shit, and then deal with any family members you had if they decide to show up for revenge. You have no bargaining chips. You should be asking for us to kill you quickly, instead of rendering you helpless and slowly tearing you apart piece by piece for interfering in what is a time-sensitive operation.

[FallacyofUrist]

"It is in your best interest to kill me quickly. If you don't, I might get off a spell. And you know what my magic is capable of. And I warn you, do not underestimate my family, especially None."

An END roll is fine.

[Beirus]

((I think the instakill spells should be considered on a case-by-case basis. An END roll, or really any other roll, wouldn't make any sense for my instakill, since it targets something the target has no concious control over. I'm fine with a higher requirement for mine.))

((It partialy does, as I also use END rolls for pain, but I see what you mean. I gues I'll have to work a bit on a pseudo-HP system.))

[Beirus]

((Could call it chunky soulsa. Or not. Kinda defeats the purpose of an instakill if it doesn't instantly kill them. Then it's just highly lethal. Although it would take less essences since I just need to beat their roll+modifiers, and I don't think anybody has more than +1 END. Just need 7 essences for an instakill.))

[ATHATH]

Wait, did I hide Beirus's stuff, or did he not have any?

Also, PM.
