Afterward, if successes are equal or greater to the target’s current Health, the target dies immediately. If the spell fails to kill the target, it deals 1 point of lethal damage instead. Target must be a living creature, Slay does not affect undead, constructs, or material. This is a magical effect and targets get no additional defense from dodge.
