Spells

Spell	Tags	Consumes	Falloff
Terror	aura control	—	—
Creates an aura costing a stated fraction of max HP each second. Grants 1 Dread per second to every enemy currently engaging you. Terror alone never takes an enemy past 4 Dread.
Reckless	melee burst	—	—
A charged overhead that deals enormous damage and injures you on release. The blood grants 2 Dread to every enemy in melee range, whether or not the swing connected.
Carve	cone clear	all Dread from every enemy it hits	Standard
Consumes all Dread from every enemy in a broad arc, deals extra damage per stack consumed, and pulls their attention onto you. Standard falloff. At most 15 stacks per cast. `n` = enemies hit
Headtaker	melee burst	all Dread on one target	—
Consumes all Dread on 1 target and executes it, raising the execute threshold by a flat amount per stack consumed. On a kill, every enemy that saw it gains 2 Dread.
Red Mist	rider sustain	5 Dread from the victim, or whatever it carries	—
Consumes up to 5 Dread from each enemy you kill and restores a flat amount of health per stack consumed. Only a stated number of kills pay out each second.
Rout	rider clear	—	Steep
An enemy at 5 Dread becomes Broken: it stops attacking and flees. With this slotted it barges instead, damaging everything it hits and applying 2 Dread to each. 6 routers party-wide. `n` = bodies that router has crossed
Confidence	buff economy	—	—
Increases your damage with your aggro share along the share curve, to a stated ceiling. A Broken* enemy stops attacking, so it stops paying you.*

Falloff: per-target output × n^-k down to a floor, where n is targets hit. The band supplies both — Flat k=0/100% · Shallow k=0.13/60% · Standard k=0.25/50% · Steep k=0.39/35% · Punishing k=0.77/15% — and — is a spell that states none.
