Avert Your Eyes. If an opponent is taking an action against you that would normally involve looking at you and they choose to avoid it, you gain +1 to defend against it.

Petrifying Gaze. Each time a target chooses not to avert their eyes when doing something that would normally involve looking at you and does not succeed with style, you automatically deal one point of mental (petrifying) stress.
