  Ouch. That puts me at 3.
  
  But that gives me more information when I was at G19 that I didn't have the first time, so I think I'm within my rights to change where my move action goes to. Assuming so:
  
  Revel moves to F25, uses a swift action to activate Death Devotion, and attacks using Shadow Blade Technique.
  
  Attack1: (1d20+4)[ 5 ] 
  Attack2: (1d20+4)[ 17 ] 
  Damage: (1d10+4)[ 12 ]  plus (if both hit)  (1d6)[ 1 ] 
  If either roll succeeds, you need to make a DC 13 Fort Save or gain a negative level.

  Down to -3. Good thing I have Rageclaws to keep me going.
  
  Move to I22 and attack with Steely Strike.

  DC 13 Fort save or gain a negative level if I hit.

  And thus is the end of Crazy Ed.
  
    Fort Save  - (1d20+2)[ 8 ] . At -5 he's down anyway, but just to see if he needs a simple heal or the full complimentary Resurrection.
  
  
  Ok, that was an excellent match, ignoring my own overconfidence there at the end. I was so worried about Steely Strike and that Shadow Blade I completely overlooked that little extra bit about the Rage Claws. Ah well. Live, die, and learn. 😎
