By committing an unspeakable act, you cloak yourself in an protective, ethereal mantel of inky black energy. You gain 20 temporary hit points and resistance to necrotic and radiant damage. Additionally, whenever a creature hits you with a melee attack, roll 1d100. On a 1, the creature drops to 0 hit points and begins bleeding out.
