:''Effect'': Under specific, uncommon conditions, the character enters a state of unbridled rage. While enraged, they will furiously attack the nearest person, whether they are friend or foe. Once they either flee or are defeated (unconscious or worse), the character proceeds to the next "Threat".

+

:If the character has a Rage ability, it is automatically triggered when this effect goes off. Otherwise, they gain a +2 to all attack and damage rolls, but a -2 to AC and all saves.

::Examples of conditions that might initiate Blind Fury include: receiving a certain amount of damage, sight of blood, a specific sound or smell, being outnumbered in combat, seeing a friend in mortal danger, confrontation with a specific opponent, etc.

+

:The character can only return to a normal emotional state under another specific condition. This return could involve a Will save, or could be an automatic reversion.

::Examples of return conditions include: no opponents in the vicinity, a specific calming technique performed by an ally, solitude, injection of a particular drug, being knocked unconscious, etc.

:''Effect'': Select one Buff Tag that this modifies. A character with this ~~Defect~~ cannot use the selected tag whenever desired because it requires a short time to activate. Once activation has started, only the character can stop it from becoming active when the appropriate time is up. This could represent a physical change that is not instantaneous, the collection of spiritual energies to perform a task, a device that takes time to “power up,” or an Attribute that only works when the character is mentally prepared.

:''Effect'': Select one Buff Tag that is non-instantaneous that this modifies. A character with this tag must concentrate to maintain the effects of the selected tag. If the character’s concentration is interrupted voluntarily or by an outside event, the Attribute ceases to function.

:The effect requires some concentration to maintain - the character must use a swift action each round to keep the effect going.

+

:''Modifiers'':

+

* (2 points) The effect requires intense concentration to maintain - the character must use a standard action each round to keep the effect going.

+

* (4 points) The effect requires near-total concentration to maintain - the character muse use a full-round action each round to keep the effect going.
