Enchantment of Fear

This spell is a part of the Trepidatious Bracing spell chain and is found in the Trepidatious Bracing rune stone.

A weapon is only as dangerous as the one holding it. Usually. Enchantment of Fear changes that calculation slightly, by adding to the weapon itself something that has nothing to do with the wielder's strength or skill. Fear does not care how strong you are. It does not care how accurate. It simply arrives with the strike and does what it has always done.

The timoramancer reaches through Presence and settles their energy into the weapon. The wielder's Runic Power is added to each attack as fear's weight gives every blow an additional dimension beyond the physical. Each strike that connects delivers not just damage but a jolt of pure fear directly to whoever is hit - a Fear status settling over them as Presence reminds them, through the weapon, that something here is dangerous in a way that goes beyond the blade. Simple. Direct. Effective. The weapon does not change in appearance, after all the weapon isn't meant to be fearful - that is Dread's domain. Presence simply is letting the ones hit know that what they face is dangerous.
