Call Of Eternity

Touch of eternity spell can evoke victim's greatest fears. But one fear generally trumps all others: Death. With Call of Eternity the nightblade can emphasize this specific aspect but with a mischievous twist. The spell no longer brings forward the terror of the moment, it rather emphasizes what follows: the eternity after death, the time when all the problems are gone and nothing would trouble the victim anymore. The touch of eternity spell now takes on a somewhat different meaning, making defeat no longer such a bad thing. Perhaps even a thing to be welcomed. Because the spell now presents such a contrast between what is and what could be, should one simply stop resisting and welcome eternity, it gains much more power from dejection, despondence or depression, just as it gets amplified much more with sadness, despair, apathy or hopelessness. Furthermore, the idea of eternity lingers in the victim's mind for a short time (2mns), distracting them and thus causing penalty to magical resilience.

Afterlife Gift

When nightblade sends an opponent to their afterlife, she can also draw the lifeforce the enemy leaves behind for herself. This lifeforce then protects her when she would die. Each time she receives damage that would kill her she is left with single hitpoint and the extra damage is taken from this lifeforce shield until it is exhausted and nightblade finally succumbs, too.

Heavenly Attraction

Induces the feeling that heaven is almost within reach and the attraction is overwhelming. As this attracts the victim's very essence, its body rots and decays from this dissociation and takes body damage. While this attack goes after body integrity of the victim, it does so by essentially persuading the body to destroy itself so it only utilizes mental negative enchantments: dejection, despondence, depression, sadness, despair, apathy, hopelessness and also from fooled eyes because that can change victim's perception of reality. There can be only one of dejection/despondence/depression and one of sadness/despair/apathy/hopelessness, so we are talking about three spelldowns only. Additionally, the spell also receives extra bonus if victim is currently affected by sweet afterlife, heavenly attraction and especially from call of eternity. While the victim is distracted by the heavenly attraction they cannot focus so well on execution of their special attacks so they suffer penalty to precision. The victim is also more willing to accept the defeat if they feel the heavenly attraction so they cross the threshold to afterlife 0.5% hitpoints earlier than normal for each short-term effect from spells from Call of Eternity branch, as long as call of eternity is one of them. Furthermore, the call of eternity is also much more alluring when the victim is feeling the heavenly attraction.

Stairway To Heaven

This spell brings the victim's mind to contemplate the stairway to heaven, the idea of ascending to one's final resting place. While climbing those stairs is quite a feat it has a joyous reward so it is worth the effort. And as the spell makes it so desirable, the victim becomes less interested in life, manifesting as mind damage. This is fully a psychical attack so it only utilizes mental negative enchantments: dejection, despondence, depression, sadness, despair, apathy, hopelessness and also from fooled eyes because that can change victim's perception of reality. There can be only one of dejection/despondence/depression and one of sadness/despair/apathy/hopelessness, so we are talking about three spelldowns only. Additionally, the spell also receives an extra bonus if the victim is currently affected by sweet afterlife, heavenly attraction and especially from the call of eternity. The images of stairway to heaven do not disappear instantly (lasts 2mns), the victim contemplates the ascent over the stairway to heaven and the associated physical exhaustion, causing a penalty to physical power. The victim is also more willing to accept the defeat if they consider ascending the stairway to heaven so they cross the threshold to afterlife 0.5% hitpoints earlier than normal for each short-term effect from spells from Call of Eternity branch, as long as call of eternity is one of them. Furthermore, the call of eternity is also much more alluring when the victim is thinking about ascending the stairway to heaven.

Sweet Afterlife

This spell floods the victim's mind with powerful images of afterlife. The time after death when nothing hurts anymore, when one can fully enjoy the sweet joys that were denied during hard life. This causes the victim to be more inclined to just give up, accept defeat and move on to the sweet afterlife that the spell so vividly presents. This is fully a psychical attack so it only utilizes mental negative enchantments: dejection, despondence, depression, sadness, despair, apathy, hopelessness and also from fooled eyes because that can change victim's perception of reality. There can be only one of dejecetion/despondence/depression and one of sadness/despair/apathy/hopelessness, so we are talking about three spelldowns only. Additionally, the spell also receives extra bonus if victim is currently affected by stairway to heaven, heavenly attraction and especially from call of eternity. The images of sweet afterlife do not disappear instantly (lasts 2mns), the victim contemplates the afterlife where violence is not a threat and therefore suffers a penalty to physical resilience. The victim is also more willing to accept the defeat if they think about the sweet afterlife so they cross the threshold to afterlife 0.5% hitpoints earlier than normal for each short-term effect from spells from Call of Eternity branch, as long as call of eternity is one of them. Furthermore, the call of eternity is also much more alluring when the victim is thinking about the sweet afterlife.

Shared Afterlife Gift

When nightblade has afterlife gift active, she can use it to empower her spells that persuade victim to pass to the afterlife with the emotional imprint of the next life. The victim becomes more willing to let go, not waiting for getting the last spark of life beaten out of them, and they let go when they have 0.5% hitpoints more than necessary for dying when hit by attacks from Call of Eternity branch. In other words, the amount of hitpoint the victim needs to survive after being hit by Call of Eternity branch spell is computed not from 0hp but from 0.5% hitpoints.

Rush To Pearly Gates

The different spells needed to entice the victim to let go, cross the threshold and enter the next chapter of their existence, they all take time to cast. And their aftereffects strengthen the other spells but do not last that long which makes it hard to fully benefit from all of them. The nightblade doesn't want to stop the victim from making the leap to eternity so they can rush them to the pearly gates. They can cast the afterlife-enhancing spells 6% faster, getting the reinforcement effect for more spells in a row.

Power From Afterlife

As the nightblade led their opponents to defeat, they realized that the passing over from life to afterlife is a powerful event. It is a boundary between two realities and as such it has incredible tension. And tension means energy, or power. With this skill the nightblade can keep in contact with the opponent for a brief moment and draw power from the other side. This effectively gives the nightblade significant amount of mana (based on the opponent's level) each time nb delivers the finishing blow with afterlife spell.

To get there the nightblade needs to be able to utilize her magic even during the day, and with celestial light this is exactly what she can do.

Calling Of Paradise

The victim hears the paradise calling to them. And when paradise is calling, what point is there in remaining in this life when the next one beckons so clearly? Listening to the calling of paradise causes the victim to gradually give up the will to live (in the form of mental damage). This is fully a psychical attack so it only utilizes mental negative enchantments: dejection, despondence, depression, sadness, despair, apathy, hopelessness and also from fooled eyes because that can change victim's perception of reality. There can be only one of dejection/despondence/depression and one of sadness/despair/apathy/hopelessness, so we are talking about three spelldowns only. Additionally, the spell also receives an extra bonus if the victim is currently affected by aftereffects from spells of Call of Eternity branch, especially from the call of eternity. The calling of paradise does not get silenced instantly (lasts 2mns), the victim listens to it when they should be focusing on their own magic, causing penalty to magical power while calling of paradise sounds in their mind.

The powerful suggestion of this spell makes the victim more ready to accept defeat and give up (in the form of mind damage). This is fully a psychical attack so it only utilizes mental negative enchantments: dejection, despondence, depression, sadness, despair, apathy, hopelessness and also from fooled eyes because that can change victim's perception of reality. There can be only one of dejection/despondence/depression and one of sadness/despair/apathy/hopelessness, so we are talking about three spelldowns only.

Escape From Mortal Coil

This spell shows the victim the futility of the toil in the mortal coil, inducing the victim's soul (or ego, id, mind, however the animating power is called in the victim's belief system) to move towards escape from the mortal world, leaving the physical shell to rot, causing body damage in the process. While this attack goes after body integrity of the victim, it does so by essentially persuading the body to destroy itself so it only utilizes mental negative enchantments: dejection, despondence, depression, sadness, despair, apathy, hopelessness and also from fooled eyes because that can change victim's perception of reality. There can be only one of dejection/despondence/depression and one of sadness/despair/apathy/hopelessness, so we are talking about three spelldowns only. Additionally, the spell also receives an extra bonus if the victim is currently affected by any other aftereffect of Call of Eternity branch, and especially from call of eternity. While the victim is distracted by the thoughts of escaping the mortal coil they do not focus so much on defense and they take penalty to armor class. The victim is also more willing to accept the defeat if they are thinking about escaping the mortal coil so they are willing to escape it at 0.5% hitpoints earlier than normal for each short-term effect from spells from Call of Eternity branch, as long as call of eternity is one of them.

Nirvana Within Sight

When the victim is hit by one of nightblade's powerful suggestions about crossing to the next world, they can almost see the nirvana that awaits. They are more willing to just accept defeat instead of fighting on. This in effect means that the amount of hitpoints left after the damage is done needs to be 10% higher than before for the victim to keep fighting. In other words, if nightblade deals X damage then normally the victim would succumb if they have less than X hitpoints left, with this skill they need to have 10% more. Here "remains" means however much is left above the level when the victim would die anyway.

Improved Nirvana Within Sight

Adds extra 10% to the required remaining hitpoints.

Hasten To Transcendence

The more the victim can imagine themselves in the afterlife (i.e. the more aftereffects of Call of Eternity branch it has), the more eager they are to transcend. And the nightblade is at hand to help with that. She can cast Call of Eternity branch spells faster, the more aftereffects the victim has, allowing the victim to transcend to afterlife sooner.

Duality Of Mind And Body

With all the magic at her disposal to persuade both the mind and body of the victim to accept defeat and just give up, the nightblade has learned how to use the mind-body duality to attack one but affect the other and vice versa. When casting her Call of Eternity branch combat spells she can convert up to 10% of the damage from mind to body or vice versa, whichever is more beneficial. She doesn't even need to devote extra capacity to it because she is attacking the underlying essence of the victim and she uses the duality of mind and body to attack in the best way possible.

Can move additional 10% of damage to more beneficial resist.

Extended Duality Of Mind And Body

Can move further 20% of damage to more beneficial resist.

When echo of eternity triggers, it can increase power of nightblade's spell from Call of Eternity branch by 50%-100%. The chance for triggering depends on the number of aftereffects of Call of Eternity branch spells (1.5% per aftereffect).

Chance to trigger increases by 50%.

Crowds Of Souls

Having assisted literally crowds of souls with their passing to afterlife, the nightblade has learned how to put her suggestions into an overdrive. By tripling mana expenditure for her afterlife-based spells she can cast those spells 20% faster, allowing her to keep more afterlife effects on the enemy which in turn makes many of her effects more powerful. While this castmode is extremely powerful, it is also extremely expensive as the castmode not only increases cost but also allows casting more spells in the same time, draining mana reserves that much faster. Therefore it works best if nightblade can rely on additional support.

Improved Crowds Of Souls

Increases speed bonus of this castmode to 25%

Extended Crowds Of Souls

Increases speed bonus of this castmode to 30%

Enhanced Crowds Of Souls

Increases speed bonus of this castmode to 40%

This makes the victim more willing to give up, effectively increasing damage by 25%.

Improved Eternity Within Reach

Increases damage bonus to 33%

Extended Eternity Within Reach

Increases damage bonus to 50%

Enhanced Eternity Within Reach

Increases damage bonus to 75%

Advanced Eternity Within Reach

Increases damage bonus to 100%.
