Boiling Corrosive Aura

1st-level attack/defense

Activation Time: 1 action
Range: Self
Duration: 10 minutes

A protective layer of scalding acid surrounds you. If a creature hits you with a melee attack that doesn't have the reach quality or touches you without a melee weapon within the duration, it takes 1d4 + your power ability modifier damage. Half of this damage is fire and half acid (odd results favor fire damage).

At Higher Levels: When you activate this power using a power slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage increase by 1d4 for each slot level above 1st.
