=== The Variant Rule ===
When you hit with a melee weapon attack against a creatureon your turn, you can declare that you are making it a Deathblow, by expending an extra attack that you are able to make from the Extra Attack Feature, Haste, or similar effect. It automatically does the maximum damage possible. If this damage however does not kill the creature, the damage is halved, and the attacker gains the following effects until the end of their next turn.
If a creature survives a deathblow, they cannot be targeted by one again from the same creature.
If this damage however does not kill the creature, the damage is halved, and the attacker gains the following effects until the end of their next turn.
=== Consequences of Failure ===
*The creature cannot take reactions.
