At the moment of casting, a shadowy mass emerges from the center of the ebony skull used for the spell focus, composed partly of the diopside dust placed inside it, and congeals into a 10 ft. long sickle with sentience. The sickle already has a liking to you, so you can wield it without trouble. Once it hits a living creature, it uses its 1/round spell-like ability to imbue the hit creature with 100d4 transform** negative levels, or half on a successful Fortitude save. If the target creature has at least as many transform** negative levels as it does Hit Dice, it dies. If the subject survives and the transform** negative levels persist for 24 hours or longer, the subject must make another Fortitude saving throw, or the transform** negative levels are converted to actual level loss.
