This trait represents years of experience consistently dealing out damage through unarmed combat. Bare knuckle boxers, martial artists, hard core brawlers, and similar will have Hands of Death.
For every level you have in Hands of Death, one damage die resulting from a Brawl or Martial Arts attack will be considered an automatic success. Note that this Background does not add damage; it just makes the damage you would deal more likely to "stick." If you make more than one attack in a round, this applies in full to every attack. Example: If you have Hands of Death 2, five damage dice, and make four attacks (all of which hit), you would roll three damage dice for each attack; the other two will automatically be successes and need not be rolled.
When given as a Gift, Hands of Death is awarded at 3.
