While the sword is drawn, Silvanus may strike twice in a round, as long as both attacks are of the same type (two thrusts, two slashes, or two chops).
If Silvanus scores a critical with the blade, AND the base damage is doubled, AND the one struck is a living creature not protected from life-draining, AND the target's health is less than 1/2 its maximum, the result is instant death.
