Special Abilities
Bane (Su) Once per day as a swift action, a svartalfar can imbue one of its weapons with the bane weapon fusion. It must select one creature type (and subtype, if choosing humanoid or outsider) when it uses this ability. This lasts for 1 hour. This ability functions only while the svartalfar wields the weapon.
Spell Strike (Su) As a swift action after hitting with a melee weapon, a svartalfar can cast and deliver its entropic grasp spell-like ability to affect the target’s armor, if it hasn’t already cast it yet that day. If the spell is cast in this way, its duration is an additional 6 rounds.
Description
Exiled aeons ago from the First World for unspeakable crimes against other fey, svartalfars fled to the Shadow Plane. When Triune bestowed Drift technology to the universe, svartalfars channeled their vengeful energies away from the fey who expelled them to focus on an inscrutable endgame spanning both the galaxy and the planes. Many of these calculating killers have realized that the universal currencies of money and power can advance their race further than can the arcane knowledge they once sought as payment for their services.
