Furies' Decision:
We think this is overly complex and question whether Glamours needs an
instakill.
Problem: Glamourists and Bards in general, at least commune bards lack access to
kill methods outside pure damage or the rare kill of a deathsong on anyone other
than those incapable of curing so I wanted to propose a possible new ability to
gauge ideas and thoughts.
Solution #1: Glamourists are the masters of colour and light so by draining
 the colour from their targets aura, they can bring them closer to
 death. If the target is not blind a glamourist can WEAVE
 COLOURWRENCH (target) (colour) which will draw the colour through
 the eyes (eyes are the window to the soul) and into the
 glamourists own aura. (The colours coordinate with those of
 Colourburst). A glamourist can then choose to release the colours
 at anytime to afflict the target with afflictions, 1p per colour.
 If the glamourists aura is filled, red, orange, yellow, green,
 blue, violet and indigo, the Glamourist can WEAVE BLAZE (target)
 for 8p to kill the unblind target instantly. Possible cure: If
 the bard and the target are apart for too long, the colours will
 soon fade one at a time from the bards aura, returning to their
 owner, or If target is blind, they can focus spirit to regain a
 colour or eat a horehound.

This aura filling will be only against a single target, yes? You can't fill your
aura and then instakill someone else?
---[Rika on 9/19 @ 03:28 writes]:
Yeah, single target. Each individual has their own aura

I support this.

Support for Solution 1. How would this interact with multiple Glamourists?
---[Neos on 9/19 @ 19:21 writes]:
How long do to the bard and the victim have to be apart for the colors start to
fade?

I think this is a bit much. unless it's easy to cure, and not by horehound (too
easy to stack with aurics, which are powerful in their own right)), it's just
too easy to pull off. Stand there, pfifth, wrench while keeping deaf, wait for
8p, after image, dead

I kind of agree with Sidd here.
