-Harbinger attacks are unique in that the time between making the attack and executing it is not instantaneous: first you pronounce doom on a target, then at some unspecified future moment they get hurt. In exchange for on-demand dependability, this weapon doesn't generally use or require Supplies and can provide several interesting tactical options unavailable elsewhere.

-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Delayed Attack:** As an action, you may pronounce doom against any target in order to set up a future Remote attack on them. This action counts as a normal attack action for purposes of double attacking or any other abilities that affect attack actions. Unlike other weapons, the attack is not resolved immediately. If it helps, write down which targets you've set up attacks on so you can remember more easily later. You can freely pronounce doom on a single target multiple times to set up multiple attacks. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Doom-Shaka-Laka:** At the beginning of each turn, roll a trigger die. If the result is 9+, every attack you've previously set up is immediately executed on their target(s) as a free action. If you don't want to execute some or any of your set up attacks during a turn, you don't have to. You can execute attacks in any order you want, if that ends up being important. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Shifting Circumstance:** Your attack is resolved when it arrives, not when it was set up. You roll the attack's trigger die when it happens, and its damage is determined by the current Escalation when it happens rather than when it is set up. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Just To Be Clear:** The trigger die you roll to see if your attack arrives is separate from the trigger die you roll to resolve your attack. You don't get to keep the result from one and apply it to the other. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Conditions:** When the trigger die is 10+, this weapon inflicts its wielder's choice of the Afraid, Dizzy, or Vulnerable conditions to its target. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Backstab:** If you attack a target that cannot see you, you deal +2 damage. Like other attack effects, what's important is that the target cannot see you when the attack arrives, not when you set it up. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Inexorable:** Attacks with this weapon ignore failure chances from concealment, cover, and shields (as the [[Shieldbearer]] class). Failure chances from mismatched sizes between attacker and target are reduced by 12 (minimum 0). \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Water Capable:** This weapon works just fine underwater. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Limited Range:** Although you can set up an attack against any target you care to name, you can only actually execute it if your intended target is within 50 meters when the attack arrives. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Earlier Than Expected:** If a target you've pronounced doom upon dies or is otherwise made completely unavailable as a target, then any further attacks they would normally have coming their way are cancelled prematurely. All unculminated dooms you've pronounced are cancelled automatically at the end of each exploration turn. |

 |{{fa>caret-right?24}} ^{{fa>star?24|Alternative}} |{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**The Pain Is Now:** You can choose to have all your previously set-up attacks arrive even if the trigger die rolled for arrival is not 9+. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Ammo Cost:** Forcing attacks to arrive when they normally wouldn't requires you to spend 1 Supplies.

-|{{fa>caret-right?24}} ^{{fa>star?24|Alternative}} |{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Longer Range:** You can attack subjects that are further away than 50 meters when the attacks arrive, up to a maximum of 500 meters. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Accuracy Drop:** Shooting at very distant targets carries a failure chance.
