Legacy Power: Blood for Blood

The ancient ritual of Et Sanguis Sanguinem is capable of bringing someone back from the brink of death, but it comes at a steep price.

A 1 Gift Heal Wound Power created by ExampleRobot.

Description

Vladimir can sacrifice his own life-force to restore another person to health. To do this, he must cut open his wrist, and pour his blood into a chalice. The injured person must drink it all down while Vladimir places his hands on their head and chants a brief incantation. They will soon feel their own flesh begin to knit back together. For the rest of the day, both the newly healed wound and Vladimir's wrist will glow bright red.

System

Exert your Mind and spend 15 Minutes treating a specific Injury on a Living target. Roll [[healing-roll]] - 4. Each Success reduces the Injury's Severity by one. If you can reduce its Severity to zero, the wound is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and fully, Properly Stabilized. It will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.

You cannot target yourself, and you cannot target the same Injury more than once.


Enhancements

  • Preventative Care (Treatment removes all Battle Scars caused by the Injury, even those that would not heal with Proper Stabilization.)

Drawbacks

  • Mage (Activating this Effect requires two consecutive Actions of Concentration. It involves intricate use of the body and voice. If interrupted during activation, the Effect fails. It is obvious you are preparing to activate an Effect during casting.)
    • Activation Ritual - Perform a ritual chant hands on their head while they drink the cup of blood
  • Sacrifice (Instead of Exerting your Mind or expending Source, activating this Effect gives a Severity-1 Injury that worsens by 1 Severity each time you use an Effect with Sacrifice. This Injury cannot be prevented by any means or healed before 1 day has passed.)
  • Focus (Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.)
    • Object - Chalice

Parameters

Potency: 2 ( 4 ) Cast Time: 0 ( 15 Minutes )
