Heartburn (Minor) by Stone Gargoyle and Gryphon Chick
A touch by the character to skin (using one melee attack/action) will leave an electrical surge inside the target which will continue to burn for 1d4 SDC damage per melee round for 2d4 melee rounds unless a saving throw is made (14 or better, PE bonus applies) upon the initial touch. The surge of energy will also cause the target to run a low-grade fever, imposing a penalty of -2 to all combat moves, and causing them to lose initiative and be reduced to half attacks for the duration of the fever.
