Level bonuses
II. Uncanny Timing: You have a way of finding someone who, in your opinion (and based on your personal morality) is deserving of death. You have a tendency to encounter them just as they are commiting whatever act would deem them worthy of destruction or punishment.

III. Status: Feared (or Feared x2); +2 to attack

V. +3 to all damage dealt

VII. Kill at a Glance: You can slay people with the power of your gaze. Compare your Grace attribute to the 'Damage' line on the Strength chart. This is the damage you can cause per minute with this ability. You need not lock eyes for the full sixty seconds, but eye contact is necessary to initiate it. Damage is assessed at the end of the minute.
