Touch

A sharp cry of pain splits the air as your wounds disappear and reappear on your target.

You transfer your hurt to another. When you manifest this power and make a successful touch attack, you can transfer up to 25 points of damage from yourself to the touched creature. You cannot transfer more points than the damage you have already taken. You immediately regain hit points equal to the amount of damage you transfer. You cannot use this power to gain hit points in excess of your full normal total. The transferred damage is empathic in nature, so powers and abilities the subject might have (such as damage reduction and regeneration) do not lessen or change this damage. The damage transferred by this power has no type, so even if the subject has immunity to the type of damage you originally took, the transfer occurs normally and deals damage to the subject.

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

  1. For every additional power point you spend, you can transfer an additional 5 points of damage.
  2. For every 2 additional power points you spend, you can affect one additional target within 20 feet of you. Starting with the creature touched and continuing to the next closest creature, each target takes half the damage this power would deal (with a Will save to further reduce the damage) until each target has taken damage or you have been restored to maximum hit points.
