Description¶
The caster utters the Finger of Death incantation, points her index finger at the creature to be slain, and unless the victim makes a Save vs. Spell, the victim dies instantly. Even if the save is successful, however, the brush with death still inflicts 2d8+1 points of magic damage. Characters slain by Finger of Death cannot be resurrected—they are gone forever.

Improved Chaos Shield increases a Wild Mage’s chance to gain a favorable result when a wild surge occurs. Every time a roll is made on the wild surge chart, an extra 25 is added to the dice roll. When Nahal’s Reckless Dweomer is cast, the bonus from Improved Chaos Shield stacks with the Wild Mage’s level bonus.
