Worthy Student

Raziel has chosen you as his personal student. At 18th level, Gain the 'Mark of Raziel'. If you were to drop to 0 hit points, you instead drop to 1 hit point. This effect only takes place if your death would be unjust and Raziel acknowledges your kind heart.

However If your death is justified (you were caught committing a crime, or have murdered excessively, for example) and you drop to 0 hit points, your runes begin to burn with intense pain. You slowly begin to fade from existence, as Raziel deems you unworthy of his mark.
