RegentAttackRare
Deal 5 damage.
Forge 5.
Forges an additional 5 for every other time you've hit the enemy this turn.

It hits for 5 damage, 7 upgraded, then Forges. The Forge is 5, 7 upgraded, plus the same amount again for every hit you already landed on that enemy this turn before this card. Multi-hit attacks count each hit. Forge adds damage to your Sovereign Blade for the combat and creates the Blade in your hand the first time you Forge in a fight.
