''This power is intended to be used with [[Revised Fear Effects (3.5e Variant Rule)|revised fear effect]] rule; it can be used without it, but it may not be at its intended balance point.'' 

You invoke a powerful primal fear in the target, causing it to become [[SRD:Confusion|confused]] for 1 round and [[SRD:Shaken|shaken]] for the duration of the power. A successful save leaves the target [[SRD:Shaken|shaken]] for 1 round instead.

Creatures immune to [fear] and/or [mind-affecting] effects are still affected by this power; if they fail the will save, they become [[SRD:Sickened|sickened]] for the duration of the power instead of the normal effect of the power (including augmented effects). A successful save leaves them [[SRD:Sickened|sickened]] for 1 round.

Mindless creatures are totally immune to the effect of this power.

A mindbreaker who manifests this power gains 1 pain point for each victim that fails its saving throw.

'''Augment:'''  You can augment this power in one or more of the following ways.

1. For each additional [[SRD:Power Points|power point]] you spend, you can increase the duration of the [[SRD:Confusion|confusion]] by 1 round.

2. For 2 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]], your target becomes [[SRD:Panicked|panicked]] instead of [[SRD:shaken|shaken]] on a failed save. Creatures immune to [fear] or [mind-affecting] effects become [[SRD:Nauseated|nauseated]] instead of sickened. At the end of each their turn, the target is allowed another [[Will]] save to reduce the effect back to being shaken/sickened for the duration of the power. 

3. For 2 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]], you can instead invoke fear in a 30 feet cone-shaped spread; all creatures caught in the cone are affected. For 2 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] you spend when using this augment, you can leave a lingering fog of fear; the fog covers the same area as the cone, and for all intents and purposes, its properties are identical to [[SRD:Fog Cloud|''fog cloud'']], except that creatures ending their turn in the fear cloud take a &minus;2 penalty to will saves for 1 round.

4. For 4 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]], creatures who fail their saves will slowly hurt themselves as they scratch away their skin frantically. They are [[Burning (3.5e Condition)|burning]] for the duration of the power; they may make an additional Will save as a move action to end the burning (but not the other effects of the power). 

5. For 8 additional [[SRD:Power Points|power points]], the power duration becomes instantaneous. Any spell or power that remove fear effects still work on this power. 

For every two additional power points you spend on any augmentation, the DC rises by +1.
