Terror Flares are a type of specialty flare which provides immobalized status (-50 DS), puts the receipant in stance offensive, adds RT, and is a 100% penalty to the base skill EBP of the target and cause the target to drop their weapons. Terror Flares have been offered at Ebon's Gate and as of EG 2022, are able to be added to weapons, armor, and shields.

Terror Flares add -100 to item difficulty.

On weaponry:

You swing a sinuous ghezyte-scaled whip at a gnomish rogue!
  AS: +709 vs DS: +364 with AvD: +21 + d100 roll: +25 = +391
   ... and hit for 47 points of damage!
   Blow to back cracks several vertebrae.

 ** Your ghezyte-scaled whip releases a distorted black shadow! **
The gnomish rogue freezes in utter terror!
A troll-claw slips from the gnomish rogue's grasp.
A reinforced shield slips from the gnomish rogue's grasp.

On armor:

A gremlock claws at you!
  AS: +405 vs DS: +347 with AvD: +7 + d100 roll: +78 = +143
   ... and hits for 1 point of damage!
   Glancing blow to your back.
   That could have been worse.
Your mithril platemail flashes red and you suddenly feel enraged!

 ** Your mithril platemail releases a distorted black shadow at the gremlock! **
The gremlock freezes in utter terror!
A rusted wire garrote slips from the gremlock's grasp.
