Piranha Swarm

Once blood hits the water this school becomes a feedback loop, each wound weakening a target's future saves against it.

commonAnimalAquaticSwarm

A boiling knot of razor-toothed fish, the piranha swarm strips flesh from bone in moments—and the scent of blood only drives it into a deeper frenzy.

In play

Feeding Frenzy [Single Action] Each enemy in the swarm's space takes 2d6 piercing damage (DC 20 basic Reflex save). A creature that fails the save also takes 1d6 persistent bleed damage and takes a –2 circumstance penalty to their Reflex saves against Feeding Frenzy while this damage continues, as the piranhas' frenzy increases in intensity when they smell blood.
