Light's Blessing
By Mitchell Kelly (mitch.kelly@tesco.net), for the Lugh of the Long Arm totem.
Level 3 Gift
Description
The Light's Blessing calls upon the wisdom of Lugh, and allows the user to act as a great orator and concilliator, as Lugh was. The user must spend a point of Gnosis, and rolls Cha+Empathy, diff 7. The more successes gained, the greater the effect, but the precise effect depends on the circumstances. One success will encourage all within earshot of the user to stop to consider her words. If the user gets more successes, those that are generally friendly to her will immediately join in any debate, and will not take any action until all present have reached a consensus. Neutral parties will listen but must be persuaded to join in any debate. Hostile characters will not attack but will also need to be persuaded to join the debate. The more successes garnered, the greater these effects be. This is best roleplayed, with the temperament of the target taken fully into account. However, unless the user botches a roll, no one will attack her until the discussions are complete. The effects of Light's Blessing last until any debate is over, and a decision is reached.
