30 CP Redeemed skill
If the Redeemed is under the influence of Agony Curse, Curse of Blood, Defiler Poison, Doomblight, Drained, Enervated, Frightened, any of the Doomsights status effects, Phantasmal Terror, Plagued with Doubt, Void Taint, Wytchfire or any other demon-skill inflicted debuff that I may have forgotten, the Redeemed gains a +(2 x number of debuffs) damage bonus.
The Redeemed still suffers from all of the normal effects of the debuff(s). And debuff damage penalties are subtracted from the damage bonus.
Reasoning: Mechanically, this is meant to enhance the "power at a price" theme inherent to Redeemed skills, as well as supporting the Redeemed's role (e.g. Mask of the Martyr, the Remembrance of Demonhood tree) as a specialized fighter against demons. The Redeemed gains special abilities to fight through debuffs, but must suffer the debuffs to unlock this power.
In terms of flavor/narrative, the Redeemed gains strength from having demonic taint reintroduced to its soul, albeit at a terrible price as the Angel is horrifically scarred by various demonic afflictions.

I can work with this. Fits nicely with the Survivalist role, and it'll have a hard time getting out of hand since many of the most common effects also carry their own combat penalties. _________________
