Empower Maneuver [Metamaneuver]
Benefit: All variable, numeric effects of an Empowered Strike are increased by one-half. You can Empower any Strike you know that is up to 2 levels lower than the highest-level maneuver you know; thus if you could use 8th-level maneuvers, you could Empower any Strike of 6th level or lower.
Once you initiate an Empowered Strike, you suffer a penalty to your initiator level equal to the maneuver's level for 2 rounds. While this penalty is in effect, your higher-level maneuvers will become unavailable, but aren't expended or lost and will be available once the penalty ends.
Special: You can "lose" (As if initiated) a number of readied maneuvers as part of initiating an Empowered Strike. The duration of the initiator level penalty reduced by 1 round per total maneuver level. Thus, expending a 1st-level maneuver would reduce the duration of the penalty to 1 round. Alternatively, you can choose to increase the maximum level of maneuver you can Empower instead of reducing the penalty's duration. Both can be done, but that's a lot of expended maneuvers. In such an instance, Empowering a 9th-level Strike without penalty would require the expenditure of 8 maneuver levels.
