Description

 * The adept issues a loud shout, intimidating a single foe. The target must be within the adept’s Battle Shout rank x5 yards. The adept makes a Battle Shout test against his opponent’s Social Defense. If successful, the target incurs a -2 penalty for each success to his tests until the end of the following round. Each use against the same opponent in a given encounter increases the Difficulty Number by 5.
 * Targets which are immune to fear are immune to this talent’s effect.
