DEVIANT

Trigger A enemy’s Strike would hit you and you weren’t already concealed, hidden, or undetected by that enemy.

Your body flickers momentarily into the Ethereal Plane. You become concealed for 1 round, and the flat check for concealment applies to the Strike that would have hit you. If the flat check fails, the Strike misses you.

Awakening When your body flickers, you momentarily assume a terrifying form. If a creature fails the flat check against concealment from your Eerie Flicker, it becomes frightened 1, and it doesn’t reduce the frightened condition from this effect at the end of the same turn it gained the condition.

Awakening You can choose to compress your flickering movement into a single moment, increasing your chance to avoid the triggering attack in exchange for a shorter-lived effect. If you choose to do so, the flat check for concealment against the triggering attack increases to DC 9, but the concealment affects only the triggering Strike.

Whenever you attempt to use a deviation, roll a DC 5 flat check. On a success, you use your deviation and the DC for subsequent checks increases by 5, to a maximum of 20; on a failure, you use your deviation and then suffer a backlash effect, after which your flat check DC resets to 5. Backlash progresses from mild, to moderate, to severe. When you have already taken mild backlash in a given day, the next time you would take backlash, you take the moderate backlash instead, and if you have already taken moderate backlash, you take the severe backlash instead, and your deviation can’t be used for the rest of the day— attempting to use it simply brings pain. When you make your daily preparations, your flat check DC returns to 5 and your next backlash returns to mild.
Any effects from backlash can’t be reduced, prevented, or otherwise bypassed. Conditions and damage you take from backlash can’t be reduced or prevented by resistance or immunity, but still triggers any weakness you have to it.

Seeing and touching the beyond leaves you open to its alien influence, warping your perceptions and thoughts.

Mild Backlash Something inexplicable touches your mind, leaving you with lingering horror. You become frightened 3.

Moderate Backlash Disorienting visions and figments cover your vision, as if you’re seeing through another set of alien senses. For 10 minutes, all creatures become concealed to you as they are covered in visual distortions only you can see.

Severe Backlash Your life force is siphoned away as the presence tugs your soul to wherever it resides. You become doomed 1 and drained 2 until your next daily preparations.
