Description¶
When the caster successfully touches an opponent in melee, the opponent loses 1d6 Hit Points for every two caster levels, to a maximum drain of 6d6 for a 12th-level caster. These Hit Points are added to the caster’s total, with any Hit Points over the caster’s normal maximum total treated as temporary bonus Hit Points. The temporary Hit Points last for 1 hour.
