Irrational Number Inculcation
Infinite Lotus (Strike) [Mind-Affecting]
Level: 3
Initiation Action: 1 standard action
Range: Melee or ranged weapon attack (see text)
Target: One creature
Duration: See text
Saving Throw: Will negates (see text)
Some numbers have a definite end, with anything beyond them simply being nothing. Some, however, do not - they go on forever, and only sentient understanding of such a thing can stop its calculation being never-ending. These 'irrational' numbers do not simply go on forever - they also vary endlessly, with no discernible pattern. It is part of the training of any Infinite Lotus disciple to realise that pursuit of any end or pattern to these numbers is futile, through endless meditation on their concepts. While this can drive some of them mad, those that survive learn to take this obsessive madness and funnel it through their weapons, leaving those that they strike filled with that same obsession, standing there and reciting the numbers endlessly, until their minds finally reassert control.

As part of initiating this maneuver, make either a single melee weapon attack or a single melee ranged attack. If this attack hits, the target of the attack is dealt an additional 3d6 damage, and must make a Will save or become dazed. While dazed, the target constantly recites numbers, but is allowed to retry this save at the end of each of their turns - a success ends this ability.

A creature immune to mind-affecting abilities is still subject to the extra damage from this ability, but not the dazing effect.
