Effect The channeler releases their divine terror in an overwhelming burst, expanding their Dread Presence outward in a violent eruption of fear. All hostile creatures within the area must make a Mental Resistance roll opposed by your Intelligence + Channeling Skill + Domain Rank.
  • On Failure: Targets immediately gain one level of Fear.
  • On Failure by 3+ Successes: The target gains two levels of Fear (e.g., becomes Frightened instead of Shaken).

This power may be used even if your aura has already been resisted by targets previously, the sheer force of the eruption bypasses the temporary immunity from resisting Dread Presence.
