Legacy Power: He Took Up Our Infirmities
"Praise the LORD, my soul, and forget not all his benefits— who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases..." - Psalm 103:2-3
A 1 Gift Cleanse Power used by Ellis McGruber, created by BobDylan530.
Description
Ellis's miracles have expanded into the treatment and curing of poisons and diseases. To do so, however, he requires a ceremonial dedication (or often re-dedication) to the service of God. This takes one minute, during which Ellis and the patient pray together and Ellis performs some ritualistic bloodletting with Esperachius. The bloodletting wounds burn with holy, golden fire, attacking the sinful disease or poison and expelling it from the body.
System
Exert your Mind and spend 1 Minute treating your patient. You may cure any diseases, poisons, etc, the target has, even if they don't have an existing mundane cure, and don't require a full diagnosis to do so. The disease or poison cannot be supernatural in nature. Must be within Arm's Reach of your target. The target must willingly submit to ritual bloodletting done by a blessed ceremonial dagger, causing a 1 point Injury to them, as well as engage in a minute of prayer.
