Materials

Effect
Bearer of enchantment's touch kills (via either hand).

Notes
Does not have to be discharged on the next person touched after the enchantment is cast, but can be saved until it is needed; must be announced when discharged. The magic itself is Sorcery, but its effect when released is Death magic. Targets may not be touched in an illegal, dangerous, or offensive manner. Counts as one hit against invulnerability and invulnerable armor. One use only.

Comments
In previous editions of Amtgard rules, this ability was known as "Vibrating Palm" when used by Monks. To prevent confusion and simplify, Monks were instead given Touch of Death as an Extraordinary (rather than magical) ability.
There is a clarification with regards to use of Extension with this skill. Extension may only extend the giving of the enchantment Touch of Death, not the release of the death magic itself. It is the same with Touch of Paralyzation
