Mercy of the Stone Fortune
EarthDescrição
Stone statues dedicated to various Fortunes and figures of renown dot Rokugan, from bustling cities to small, rural shrines and temples. Folktales tell of stone Fortunes taking on suffering for those who venerate them—wounds from roadside attackers or farming accidents mysteriously appearing on the stone body instead of upon their worshipper. Whether or not these stories are true, professionally trained individuals can use their ki to absorb fatigue or injuries for nearby allies, bringing harm onto themselves for the sake of protecting their comrades while hardening their own bodies against injury.
Regras
- Ativação
As a Support action, you may make a TN 1 Meditation (Earth) check.
- Efeito de aprimoramento
If you succeed, this kihō activates. While this kihō is active, when another friendly character at range 0–1 defends against damage, you may receive fatigue up to your Earth ring to reduce the damage that character suffers by that amount.
While this kihō is active, when another friendly character at range 0–1 suffers a critical strike, you may spend 1 Void point. If you do, the character does not suffer that critical strike, and you suffer it instead.
- Efeito de explosão
If you have two or more bonus successes, treat your ranks in Fitness as increased by 2 (to a maximum of 6) when making checks to resist critical strikes and other conditions. This effect persists for rounds equal to your bonus successes (even if the enhancement effect ends).
