DESCRIPTION
This spell mimics the voracious appetite of an Undead Ghast. Every strike drains it’s victim of their lifeforce.
You gain the ability to siphon away your enemy’s strength for your own use. One of your natural or manufactured weapons becomes the instrument of your desire, and deals 1 point of Strength damage on each successful hit. You gain that point of Strength as an enhancement bonus to your Strength score. Strength you siphon from different foes is tracked separately—the total siphoned from each individual foe is considered a separate enhancement bonus to your Strength (maximum +8), and you gain only the highest total.
Augment
You can augment this spell in one or both of the following ways.
For every 3 additional MP you spend, the maximum enhancement bonus you can add to your Strength increases by 2.
If you spend 6 additional MP, you can cast this spell as a swift action.
