Effect
Touch the target (melee attack roll if unwilling). You drain life force directly. Deal 6 damage to the target (ignores armor). You heal HP equal to half the damage dealt (round up).
If this kills the target, you heal the full damage dealt instead of half.
Steps
+1 damage per Step (maximum 9 damage at full Steps — R4 single-target ceiling).
Special
Only works on living creatures. Doesn’t work on undead, constructs, or spirits. Veil-Born vary — those with biological forms (Skin-Changers, Threadrippers in material state) are valid targets; Ethereal Veil-Born are not.
