Symbol of Turning

Step 22

The Symbol of Turning is obtained at the twenty second step of the Order of Voln. This symbol can be used as either a single target or mass attack against undead creatures. This symbol uses the Standard success resolution system to detemine success or failure.

Syntax

Symbol of Turning (by itself for the mass attack version)
Symbol of Turning <target> (for the single attack version)

Messaging

Insta-kill:

>sym of turn

You draw a glowing pattern in the air before you.

A phantom lets out a blood curdling scream!

You hear a sound like a weeping child as a white glow separates itself from the phantom's body as it rises, disappearing into the heavens.

Living creature:

>sym of turning goblin

You draw a glowing pattern in the air before a goblin.

A goblin does not seem to be affected.

Favor Cost

Symbol of Turning has a cost of 72 units of favor when either targeted or untargeted (mass attack) with one undead creature in the room. The mass attack version has an escalating cost that increases for any additional undead present. The first two undead cost 72 units of favor each. Additional undead cost 36 units of favor each. There is no favor cost for any living creatures present.

Cumulative cost example:

• One undead = 72 units of favor
• Two undead = 144 units of favor
• Three undead = 180 units of favor
• Four undead = 216 units of favor

72 + 72 + 36 + 36 = 216

Note: Characters under level 40 have a reduced favor cost which scales with level.
