Energetic Meltdown

Rarity: Common

As you channel energy through your deviant abilities, some of it turns back on you, spiking your body temperature or dancing across your skin.

@UUID[Compendium.pf2e.feat-effects.Item.Effect: Energetic Meltdown]

Mild Backlash You take [[/r @actor.level]]{damage equal to your level} as energy scours your body.

Moderate Backlash Energy wracks your body. After taking the damage, you gain weakness to the energy type of your backlash until your next daily preparations. The weakness is equal to one-third of your level. You also lose immunity to the energy type if you had it, until your next daily preparations.

Severe Backlash Whatever furnace or well within you that provides the energy for your deviation overloads completely, cascading out of you in an uncontrolled burst. You deal [[/r (@actor.level)d6]]{1d6 damage per level} to all creatures in a @Template[emanation|distance:30] with a Basic Fortitude save. You automatically take full damage without attempting a save.
