God Touch

Revision as of 01:22, 5 October 2023 by Taski (talk | contribs)

In Avendar, the gods offer a certain background presence to the lives of all people. Some find themselves touched in ways that profoundly affect their lives, typically leaving a visible mark. This is commonly manifested at birth, but can occur at later points in life. Most consider this a sign of the god's favour, but may simply represent a passing interest. That said, if one so marked profoundly displeases a god, or is chosen as an exemplar of another god's faith, the mark will be removed.

All god touches cost 3 trains. One may only have a god touch from a single deity. Should the mark be removed for any reason, the train cost will not be refunded.

The effects of these touches are as follows:

Aeolis: +4 Charisma
Serachel: Your aura never appears redder than faint red, regardless of actual karma.
Alil: Your wisdom score will always be equal to two less than your current charisma.

Chadraln: +10% mana regeneration speed.
Jalassa: Unarmed damage is calculated as if the masterwork weapon flag were applied.
Alajial: -22 armour class; aggressive monsters will cease to be aggressive ten levels sooner than normal.

Jolinn: Water-based healing is 10% more effective on you.
Lilune: +4 Intelligence.
Dolgrael: +4 Strength.

Fenthira: +4 Constitution.

Elar: +1hp per level 50% of the time; natural magic healing is 10% more effective on you.
