Hex Eye (Flourish) | |
Level: | 3 |

Prerequisite: | Two Hex Eye maneuvers |
Initiation Action: | 1 standard action |
Range: | 60 feet (18 meters) |
Area: | One enemy |
Duration: | See text |
Saving Throw: | None |
One magical sword appears above your targets, ready to strike.
You may choose one target within 60 feet (18 meters). An insubstantial sword appears above the target's head. This sword is visible to anyone.
When you try to curse one opponent that is subject to the impending blade two outcomes may occur: if the target passes the save, it's freed from the blade, if it does not it suffers the effects of the curse and the sword falls on it, dealing 1d6 per initiator level of damage, up to 5d6. This damage is not subjected to any resistance or damage reduction, but spell resistance applies (it's a supernatural maneuver).
The blade disappear after one round per Charisma modifier, if it's not activated.
By initiator level 10th, you may use this maneuver even on cursed enemies. In this case the blade falls on the target at the start of their next turn, but they may do a Will save to halve the damage. Doing so release them from the curse, and they may be cursed again.
