Oblation of Soul

Level 1 | CC: Whiteblood | Rarity: Mythic | Cost: 0 TP
Oblation of Soul: You have offered your soul as a vessel for a divine Ayternia, in exchange for powerful abilities. Each round that passes where you don’t take any damage, you gain 1 stack of Madness. As your stacks of Madness increase, you will become more vulnerable to damage, but you will gain the ability to use progressively stronger abilities.
  • Madness (I): Divine Madness begins to take hold. Each stack of Madness reduces your DEF and RES to all damage by 10%.
  • Madness (III): The maniacal laughter of the divine rings in your ears. Each stack of Madness reduces your AC and PC by 10%.
  • Madness (V): You begin to see visions of the divine. Each stack of Madness reduces your save rolls by 10%.
  • Madness (VII): You feel the tremors of the divine crawl along your spine. Each stack of Madness decreases enemies’ CRR against you by 10.
  • Madness (IX): Your mind and ego are gone– only the mad ravings of divine power remain. Effects that prevent one-hit-KO such as Morale or Auto-Revive no longer work for you. Any Doom resistance or immunity you have is negated. Your current HP may no longer exceed 50% of your maximum.
Your divine Ayternia grants you special abilities at the 1st, 3rd, 6th, 10th, 14th, 17th, and 20th level.
