Make a Spellcast Roll(12) to place a Spirit Mark on an creature within Close range. On a success, each time the marked creature suffers Severe damage it also marks a Stress. If the creature reaches maximum Stress, it generates a new Spirit Mark on them. When that creature dies, place a number of tokens equal to all Spirit Marks that creature had on this card up to a maximum of your Spellcasting trait; they remain until you take a long rest.

You may spend any number of Spirit Marks to choose one of the following options:

• Mark a Stress to a creature within Close range.
• The next time you deal damage to a creature, add an additional d6 magic damage to that creature.

Whenever you take damage or mark Stress, gain 1 Spectral Token (up to a maximum equal to your Proficiency). You may spend a Spectral Token to choose one of the following:

• You or an ally within Very Close range gains Resistance to physical damage the next time they take physical damage.
• The next time you deal damage to a creature, it also marks 1 Stress.
• When you clear a Stress, you also clear 1 HP.

All unused Spectral Tokens are cleared the next time you take a Rest.

When a creature within Far range receives Severe Damage, make a Spellcast Reaction Roll (13). On a success, mark a Stress. The damaged creature and each other creature within Very Close range of it mark a Stress and become Vulnerable until the end of the next GM Spotlight.

Once per Session, when an ally within Very Close range would drop to 0 Hit Points, you may mark Stress until your Stress track is full and become Vulnerable.

If you do, that ally instead remains at 1 Hit Point and may immediately reposition to any point within Close range of you.

Make a Spellcast Roll against an enemy within Close range. On a success, the next time that enemy marks a Hit Point, one additional enemy within Very Close range of the target marks the same amount but in Stress.

On a success with Fear, mark a Stress then choose and additional enemy to receive this effect.

When a creature dies within Close range, place a token on this card. The next time you deal damage, you may spend any number of tokens to deal that much Stress. You can hold a maximum number of tokens equal to your Spellcasting trait.

When you or an ally within Close range would take damage, a translucent necrotic ward hardens the air around them. Make a Spellcast Reaction Roll (14). On a success, spend a Hope to reduce the severity of that target’s damage by one step until the end of the GM Spotlight. On a success with Fear, do not spend Hope; instead, mark 3 Stress and reduce the severity of that target’s damage by two steps.

At the start of the session, place a number of Tokens equal to your Proficiency on this card. When you succeed on an action roll with Fear, you may spend 1 Token to prevent the GM from gaining a Fear. If you do not have tokens to spend, mark 3 Stress instead.

Make a Spellcast Roll (16). On a success, spend 2 Hopes then each creature within Very Close range marks 1d4 Stress.

If a creature marks its last Stress as a result of this spell, roll an additional 1d4. That creature then marks that many additional Stress. This effect can occur only once per creature per Spotlight.

Wherever you stand, entropy takes hold. While this card is in your loadout, increase your Proficiency by 1, even if it is already at its maximum.

Your attacks are overcharged with necrotic force. Whenever you deal damage with a weapon attack, the target also marks Stress equal to the damage’s severity (Minor = 1 Stress, Major = 2 Stress, Severe = 3 Stress).

Death refuses to claim you just yet. When you would mark your last Stress, you may spend 2 Hope to negate the damage that would result from it.

Make a Spellcast Roll against a target within Close range. On a success, spend 2 Hopes to curse the target, causing it to mark 1d4 Stress each time it takes the Spotlight.

If the target is reduced to 0 Hit Points by marking its last Stress from this curse, the curse detonates in a devastating surge. Each creature within Very Close range of the target marks 2d4 Stress if they fail a Reaction Roll (17).

If four or more cards in your loadout are from the Death domain:

• Increase your spell casting trait by +1
• Once per session, clear all Stress for you and your allies when a creature dies within Close range of you.

• You use Stress in place of Hit Points
• Attacks against you have disadvantage and you have resistance to magic damage and immunity to physical damage
• Abilities and spells that require marking Stress have no Stress cost

You cannot be healed by any means until this form ends by spending 1 Hope. If you mark your last Stress while in Spirit Form, you immediately make a Death Move with disadvantage. If you fail that Death Move, mark one additional Scar instead of one.
