Thousands of razor-sharp crystal shards spray in a thick ray from your hand toward your foe.

Razor-sharp crystal shards shoot from your hand. These crystals are supernaturally sharp and lacerate flesh. You must succeed on a ranged touch attack with the ray to deal damage to a target. The ray deals 2d4 points of slashing damage (see the Metacreativity and Damage Reduction sidebar, page 79) and causes a living target to gush blood, dealing an additional 1d4 points of Constitution damage on a failed Fortitude saving throw.

Augment: You can augment this power in one or both of the following ways:

  1. For every additional power point you spend, the shards deal an additional 1d4 points of damage.
  2. For every 2 additional power points you spend, the shards deal an additional point of Constitution damage on a failed Fortitude saving throw.
METACREATIVITY AND DAMAGE REDUCTION

Any damage-dealing metacreativity power that specifies piercing, slashing, or bludgeoning damage does not automatically overcome a creature’s damage reduction. Such powers include crystal shard (EPH 89), hail of crystals (EPH 111), swarm of crystals (EPH 134), burrowing bonds (page 79), and crystalstorm (page 81).
