Tweaked from 5eYou already know this as 5e Blight — It's Blight under a new name — same 4th level, Con save, and 8d8 necrotic — but it drops the plant rules and adds a lifesteal: drop a foe to 0 and you gain temp HP equal to half the damage. ✨
Rip 8d8 necrotic from a creature on a Con save; if it drops to 0, gain temporary HP equal to half the damage dealt.

The target takes 8d8 necrotic damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. If you reduce a hostile creature to 0, you gain temporary hit points equal to half the damage dealt. This power has no effect on droids or constructs.
