|name=Heart Shaped Box
|types=
|summary=Your heart has literally been removed.
|prereqs=[[Heartless (3.5e Flaw)|Heartless]]
|fluff=Through an arcane ritual or a pact with a demon, you have literally rather than figuratively removed your heart.  Hope that works out for you.
|benefit=You gain 25% Fortification and immunity to effects that specifically target your heart or blood.

On the other hand, your heart has been removed and if anyone finds it, they can take it, allowing them to kill or harm you at their leisure.  Your heart has half as many hit points as you do and can be coup de graced as a living, helpless creature, or gently crushed as a standard action debilitating you with pain (treat as stunned for 3 rounds bypassing any immunities).  Probably don't let them do that.
|example=Saul, a Magus, punches you in the chest and casts Stricken Heart.  You avoid being crit because of a lucky roll on your fortification and have immunity to the spell because it affects your heart.  King Franklin then swings her vorpal sword which kills you normally because your head and your heart are different things.

Later, you're brought back to life, but the Salt-Marsh Witch finds your heart and holds you hostage with it.  Dang it.
|normal=You have a heart, unfeeling though it may be.
|special=You are staggered (bypassing any immunities) while you and your heart are on different planes.
