This number resets at the beginning of each encounter, and increases to a maximum of your Constitution modifier.            Internet Troll ExploitsArgumentum Ad Populum, Internet Troll Attack 11If everyone believes that it’s true, then it must be true.Encounter * Martial, ImplementStandard Action, Area burst 1 within 10Target: All enemies in burstAttack: Charisma vs. WillSpecial: You gain a power bonus to the attack roll equal to the number of allies who agree that your attack should hit.Hit: 2d6 + Charisma modifier psychic damage, and the target is marked.Conjure Strawman, Internet Troll Utility 12You create a helpless, defenseless scarecrow. Despite not being a true threat, your foes find it a irresistible target.Daily * Charm, Conjuration, MartialStandard Action, Close burst 10Effect: You conjure a strawman in an unoccupied square in the burst. The strawman lasts until you fall unconscious or until you dismiss it as a minor action. The strawman occupies 1 square. Enemies cannot move through its space, but allies can.The strawman can be targeted by attacks, although it lacks hit points. If a single attack deals damage to the strawman equal to your Charisma modifier + one-half your level or higher, the strawman disappears, and you take damage equal to 5 + one-half your level. Otherwise, the strawman is unaffected by the attack.            Whenever an enemy begins its turn next to the strawman, make the following attack, using the square containing the strawman as the origin square.Free Action, Melee 1Trigger: An enemy starts it turn adjacent to the strawmanTarget: The triggering enemyAttack: Charisma + Constitution vs. WillHit: The target immediately spends a standard action to attack the strawman.  If it cannot, this attack does nothing.Godwin’s Law, Internet Troll Attack 20Out of options, you desperately invoke the only person more despised than yourself, cutting off whatever is left of your credibility in the process.Daily * Martial, Implement, NecroticStandard Action, Ranged 10Target: One creatureAttack: Charisma vs. WillHit: 3d12 + Charisma modifier necrotic damage, and the target is stunned (save ends).  You are stunned until the end of your next turn.Aftereffect: The target is dazed and slowed (save ends both).Miss:                                                                                              Half damage, and the target is dazed and slowed (save ends both).               You are dazed and slowed until the end of your next turn.</blockquote>
