One for @wilw & other D&D fans:

    • Wheaton’s Furious Cock-Punch of Vengeance
    • Utility 2
    • An enemy deals you a powerful blow, and you respond in kind by ducking below his outstretched arms and delivering a blow of your own— landing somewhere most people deem uncouth to target…
    • Daily • Reaction
    • Immediate Interrupt
    • Personal
    • Trigger: You are bloodied by an attack from an adjacent enemy
    • Target: One creature
    • Attack: Strength + 5 vs. Reflex
    • Hit: 1d4 + Strength modifier damage
    • Effect: The target is knocked prone, curling into a foetal position, and is immobilized (save ends). After standing, the creature is slowed (save ends).
    • Miss: 1d4 damage
    • Created with DungeonMastering.com’s DM Tools
