Face of Death(Major) by [Stone Gargoyle

This is designed as a deific power but can possibly be used by other categories.

The character appears normal other than their head, which is always shrouded underneath a hood or cloak. Their face cannot be seen without close examination and will appear somewhat normal unless the shroud is pulled back.

1.Appearance: Their head appears to be a rotting corpse skull with worms, flies, maggots and/or rats crawling on and through it. The eyes appear to be empty sockets until one gazes into them, at which point they reveal horrifying images of destruction, war and devastation. Those seeing the head itself must roll vs. Horror Factor of 16(ME bonuses apply) or cringe in fear. Those gazing into the eyes must save vs. Horror Factor of 18(ME bonuses apply) or else wet themselves, scream in terror, break down crying or run away, refusing to believe what they saw.

2.Look of Death: The character cn stare at a target, which must then make a save vs. Coma/Death(-20%) or feel their heart seize up, breathing become restricted, or any other desired effect the GM chooses, essentially dying (6d6 damage directly to Hit Points). If they survive the attack or save, they will be stunned and in shock for 2d4 minutes and require medical attention. Range: 10 feet (Lineof Sight)
