After discussions this weekend, I'm going to trial a change to restore life/animate life/breath of life/magic res thing so that:
"The cost of a resurrection effect is reduced to zero power if you spend the full 5 minutes ritualising. You can cast a res without the ritual, but it costs full power and you don't get a free total heal." The intention is to massively reduce the tax on healers for other character's deaths, though they still need to know the miracle/evocation/spell. As with all system adjustments, if it doesn't work I'll change it back. Ta, Stuart |

Just as a note for someone not playing the campaign, I think this is very cool

While it's not particularly relevant to me as I've sadly not been a part of the campaign, I'm curious. Would the prot cost power if you do the 5 mins ritualising or would that be included too?

An interesting change.
Will definitely improve the flow and make death less of a disaster / having to decide if we can afford to res someone. BBB -------------------- Grey's Law: Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice...

I think it's fine to still need someone to cast the prot. The idea is that it's relatively easy to get players back up and playing, without changing the system too much or lessening the impact of character death. Stuart |

Stuart I think that makes a lot of sense and keeps holy water useful outside of vs undead, and makes the 0 spirit one from spiritual healer (if and when people eventually reach the sort of pts where they buy it) stay relevant. If you keep making changes like this and the discern associated one, I may have to come dip a toe in the Realms of Atheron! Mark |

Mark There’s a new campaign in the same world starting in March, in case being 190pts below the party level is too rich for your blood! S |
