D20:Death Attack Special Ability

[top]Death Attack

In most cases, a death attack allows the victim a Fortitude save to avoid the affect, but if the save fails, the character dies instantly.
  • Raise dead doesn?t work on someone killed by a death attack.
  • Death attacks slay instantly. A victim cannot be made stable and thereby kept alive.
  • In case it matters, a dead character, no matter how she died, has ?10 hit points.
  • The spell death ward protects a character against these attacks.
