Description

A black ray projects from your pointing finger. You must succeed on a Ranged Touch Attack to strike a target with this ray, as you chuckle in dark delight at their predicament.

Upon a successful hit, the Ray of Exhaustion inflicts (Circle 2 damage): 1d6 points of damage per character level (max 6d6 at character level 6) of Negative Energy (energy, uncommon) damage, and even worse, the subject is immediately fatigued for the spell's duration. After a successful hit, the subject is allowed a FORT save against a DC as defined above. A successful save means the creature is resists the fatigued condition, and is thus immune to the Synergy laid out below (but they still take full damage from the spell).

Synergy: If a creature receives any other status condition while it is suffering from the status condition laid by this spell, the old condition may be replaced with a new effect. In such cases, the dire energy of this spell inflicts (Circle 5 damage): 1d6+1 points of damage per character level (max 15d6+15 at character level 15) of Negative Energy (energy, uncommon) damage as it is expelled from the victims body.
