Frequency once per hour


Effect Blood seeps out of the knife, coating your hand. Enemies within 30 feet who can see this must succeed at a DC 26 Will save or become Frightened 1 (frightened 1 and Doomed 1 on a critical failure). The knife continues to bleed for 1 minute or until you make a successful Strike with it, which deals an additional 1d6 persistent,bleed damage.


Critical Specialisation Effects

Certain effects can grant you benefits when you make a Strike with certain weapons and get a critical success. This is called a critical specialisation effect. The exact effect depends on which weapon group your weapon belongs to, as listed below. You can always decide not to add the critical specialisation effect of your weapon.

Knife: The target takes 1d6 persistent bleed damage. You gain an item bonus to this bleed damage equal to the weapon's item bonus to attack rolls.
