A soldier’s endurance “I will continue marching regardless of our rations”

1
You possess reduced biological needs.
Used by Tarhos Kovacs, Created by CertifiedWeeb.
(This Effect may or may not be obviously Alien.)

Nobody will notice a physical change in the user, but they will notice the user almost never eats food or drinks water.

Once the “Holy grail” was consumed, the users body began to be fueled by whatever dark otherworldly power was really in the grail.

You gain the following benefits at all times.

You no longer require any food or water in order to survive. You no longer age naturally, and supernatural attempts to age you fail. Any roll to resist an Effect dependent on any affected requirement automatically succeeds.

You may spend one minute entering a state of hibernation, during which you are inanimate and unaffected by any requirements for life. You may still perceive the outside world and may spend 3 Rounds "waking up" to end it.

  • In lieu of sleeping, once per day you may spend one hour meditating to recover a Mind Damage.

A piece of Nathan's hun has become much unstrung from the rest of himself, akin to dying, tethered only with a haunt to persecute him for past misdeeds and to compel him to pursue his ambition regardless of the toll.

(I Ching Coin Casting:
After casting the three coins "imbued" with his question multiple times and constructing a hexagram bottom upwards based off of the results, noting which hexagram it is, Nathan takes the changing line into consideration, the existence of which denoting whether or not all the factors in the question have come into play yet, and creating another hexagram if so, following the process.

After finishing, the result can be consulted from the I Ching, which details explanations for hexagrams depending on all the factors above. The difficult part is interpreting and figuring out what's underneath the explanations, which is riddled with symbolism and metaphors, and formatting that into something intelligible, which is primarily done in the head, perhaps with some aid from pre-existing information.)
