You take aim and swing a distorted broadsword at an Ithzir adept!


AS: +453 vs DS: +210 with AvD: +36 + d100 roll: +94 = +373
… and hit for 188 points of damage!
Slash to the Ithzir adept’s ribs opens a sucking chest wound!
Your broadsword erupts with dark energy!
** A coil of teal-colored energy lashes out from your broadsword at an Ithzir adept’s right hand! **

… 10 points of damage!
Finger on left hand vaporized, leaving the Ithzir adept unable to count quite as high.
Your broadsword erupts with dark energy!
** A coil of teal-colored energy lashes out from your broadsword at an Ithzir adept’s right hand! **

… 35 points of damage!
Left wrist vanishes, cleanly severing hand!
Roundtime: 6 sec.

So, the Nightbringer is a variant of the Daybringer. It specializes in the living instead of the undead like its counterpart.
