    Shout: The dune stalker can emit a loud, rasping cough that has a chance of stunning every creature within 8 yards. Each creature must make an HT roll to avoid getting stunned. Those who fail can roll again every second after that to recover. This is a hearing-based attack, targets with Protected Hearing resist at +5. Each use costs 2 FP.
    Kiss of Death: The kiss of death is a sonic effect delivered with the dune stalker’s face pressed directly against the victim’s skin. This requires a DX or Brawling roll. The victim must make an HT roll to avoid getting stunned. If he fails, he can roll again every second after that to recover. If he fails by 5 or fails critically, he instead suffers a heart attack.
