|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grip of the Choking Hand | - | PeCo | 10 | - | Near / Sight | Conc / | Ind / | Branch of Holly | +3 | ArM 127 | |||
| The target feels an invisible, strangling
hand on the throat. Each round, the target loses a Fatigue level, or a Body
level if already unconscious. It requires a Stamina stress roll of 6+ to
break the spell, rolled each round. If using the holly spell focus, you
point the branch towards the victim while you cast the spell. Holly is dangerous
for magi to carry, as peasant superstition holds it to be a harmful plant
and it may therefore attract unfavorable attention. |

| The Wound that Weeps | - | PeCo | 15 | - | Near / Sight | Mom / | Ind / | +0 | A Branch of Holly | +1 | ArM 127 | ||
| When casting this spell, you point
at the victim, possibly with a branch of holly, and a large wound opens
on his or her body. The wound is not a deep one, but it bleeds profusely. The target must make a Stamina stress roll every round. If the result is a botch, he loses two Fatigue levels. If the result is 2 or less, one Fatigue level is lost. if the result is 3 to 8, no level is lost. If the roll is 9+, the bleeding stops. A target who is active suffers a -3 penalty to these Stamina rolls, and a completely still target receives a +1 bonus. Of course, accumulated Fatigue and wound penalties apply to all rolls. If outside help is received, a Chirurgy stress roll of 6+ stops the bleeding. |

corpse used cannot have been buried by Church ceremony. |

roll of 6+ is allowed to resist. Truly incredible lies allow easier resistance
rolls. |
