That way the save DC would also be 13 and I can make "unlucky for you" quips.<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />Having it do HP damage instead of insta-kill isn't a bad idea. Although maybe Con and/or Strength damage would be a better fit? How about having it do some reasonably hefty damage and potentially fuse the victim to the floor/ceiling, so if they survive they require surgery to be freed or have to tear themselves loose by brute strength, taking more damage in the process.Maybe something like this, with the "numbers to be worked out" in red:Fuse (Su): Once per day, a fader can cause a creature it has  successfully hit with a melee attack to fuse with nearby matter. At the  time of the attack, the target creature must be within 5 feet of a solid  object with a volume at least equal to its own. (In most cases, the  ground or a wall is sufficient.) The target must succeed at a Will  saving throw (DC 10 + 1/2 the fader’s Hit Dice + its Charisma modifier)  or be fused with the object, taking 2d8 Strength and  Constitution damage.If the target survives this damage they are unable to move  away from the object into which they are fused, and suffer a -4 penalty  on all their attack rolls, ability checks and skill checks due to their  pain and restricted movement. These penalties persist until all the ability damage the victim took from the fuse attack has been healed. A fused victim can be torn free with a  DC 22 Strength check, but takes 1d10 hit points of damage for every attempt  (successful or otherwise), or they can be surgically removed from the fused  object with a DC 25 [whatever the d20 Modern  equivalent to Heal] skill check.</blockquote>
