Executioner
Creature 6 — human, humanoid
CrasherAnvilLAND
Executioners carry out sentences from cruel tyrants and legitimate rulers alike. Most remain numb to the necessity of their duty, but some evil executioners grow to love the power of having someone else's life in their hands. Larger societies rely on those with the authority and the ability to interpret and enforce laws. Some carry out these duties fairly, but others are harsh and cruel, imposing severe punishments on anyone unable to pay for clemency.

Abilities
Behead —
Intimidating Strike (emotion, fear, mental) — The executioner makes a melee Strike. If it hits and deals damage, the target is Frightened 1, or Frightened 2 on a critical hit.
Mark for Death (concentrate) — The executioner marks a single creature they can see for death. The first time each round the executioner Strikes that creature, the Strike deals an extra 1d12 precision damage.
The creature remains marked for death until the executioner is knocked out, marks a different creature for death, or the encounter ends.

WORKS WELL WITH

MenderLANDA Mender keeps the executioner upright as it pushes deep into enemy lines to reach its marked target.
FlankerLANDA Flanker creates off-guard conditions and spreads enemy attention away from the executioner's focused pursuit.
