Progressive Decay [Major] by Iczer

'Yeah tough guy...it doesn't hurt...yet'

The character can lace a target's body with tiny threads of energy that interweave and tighten as the target moves.
The character must touch his target (May not be combined with a HTH attack). the target may parry this attack.
The target takes a single point of damage from the attack. A second attack, delivered in the powers duration, inflicts 1d4 damage. every successive attack inflicts a further 1d4 (2D4, Then 3D4) the character's ME is considered his PS for figuring any extra damage bonus.
The target must make a saving throw when struck (and if successful, must resave with every new strike until he fails). If he ever fails, the web inside him has gotten a hold, and tightens progressively. Every time the target takes an action, anything more strenuous than a slow walk, even an automatic defense, he takes 1D4 damage as he pulls tight the web inside his body.
This power persists for one minute per level of the character.

The character also enjoys the following bonuses:

Half damage from energy
+1D4 PE
+6D6 SDC
