Choose two creatures you can see within 20 meters of you. Each target must make a Resolve defend roll contested by your Magic skill.

- On a failure, the two targets have their life forces bound together for the duration.

- While bound, whenever one target takes Physical or Mental stress points, the other target also takes stress points equal to half that amount (rounded down).

- At the end of each of its turns, a bound creature may make a Resolve check for the difficulty of your Magic skill to break free.

- The spell ends immediately if your concentration is broken or if either target dies.

## Stunts

### Blood Leash

When a bound creature attempts to move more than 10 meters away from the other, it must make a Fortitude check for the difficulty of your Magic or become Restrained until the start of its next turn.

### Shared Agony

When one bound target takes a Consequence, the other target also gains a Consequence at one tier lower (Severe → Moderate, Moderate → Mild). This cannot trigger a Mild Consequence on the second target if the first target only took a Mild one.

### Necromantic Conduit

You may choose to include yourself as one of the two bound targets. If you do, you may redirect any stress points you would take to the other bound creature instead, once per turn.

### Soul Fracture

When Soulbind ends for any reason, both bound targets immediately take Mental stress points equal to your Magic skill as the severed connection lashes back.

### Extended Tether

The casting range increases to 30 meters.
