Death Urge
5th Edition
One creature you can see within range must make a Charisma Saving Throw. On a failure, you plant a hidden death-urge impulse in the target's unconscious thoughts. On the target's next turn, it looks for the quickest method to end its own life and attempts to do so. The subject takes no action on its turn except attempting to harm itself.
If armed, the subject attacks itself with its most damaging attack. The attack automatically hits and deals damage as a Critical Hit. If unarmed, the subject moves adjacent to the nearest hostile creature to it and provokes an Attack of Opportunity, offering its opponent an opening, which the opponent may or may not choose to take Advantage of. Any Attack of Opportunity made this way is made at Advantage.
If the target is unarmed and no hostile creatures are nearby, the subject simply does nothing at all. A subject close to an immediate and lethal hazard such as a cliff or a fire might hurl itself off the cliff or into the fire instead of striking itself with a weapon.
This is a rare option
This option requires special permission to take. In the case of spells, psionic powers, and similar options, this option must be found in the world and cannot be taken upon level-up.
