Quickening

When an Immortal takes the head of another Immortal, the defeated immortal's knowledge, soul, conscousness and essence is released in the form of Quickening. Outwardly teh quickening manifest in a lightning storm the same colors as the two immortals who just battled's Auras. This storm is centered on the victorious (or advantageously located) Immortal. This storm activates machinery, burst windows, ingites small fires, and blows electrical fuses and circuitry. This storm also causes a 5.2 scaled earth-quake within Kenning*3 yards, 10 mile an hour winds within Kenning*1 yards, and the lightning does 1 lethal damage to all non Immortals within the radius of the eletrical storm who get hit by it. (Roll ((Athletics+Dexterity)-Quickening rating)).)
Inwardly, the Immortal recieving the quickening will experience excrutating pain, and euphoric pleasure, as the memories and life experiences of the defeated Immortal and those they have defeated are fused with that of the victorious (or advantageously located) Immortal.
An Immortal's Quickening is dormant until their head comes off. Once this happens, the beheaded Immortal's Quickening goes directly into the closest living immortal. Note: If another living Immortal is within range the victorious (or closests Immortal), gains 1 quintessenece from each Immortal within range of the Quickening storm.
