This reference card will help you better understand the information provided for each boon.

Description

This section provides a general idea of what the boon could look like in the story.

Invocation Time

The required time that it takes to invoke the boon. Most boons have an invocation time of 1 normal action. For boons that have a longer time, you must spend the entire invocation time concentrating on nothing other than invoking the boon. If you are interrupted, you must start the casting over.

Duration

Most boons have a duration of "sustain persists", which indicates that the caster must use a sustain action every round in order to keep the boon in effect. If you have a boon in effect and don't sustain it, the boon is dispelled at the end of your turn. Because sustaining a boon is a minor action, which can only be taken once per turn, you can typically sustain only one boon at a time.

Power Level

This number indicates the required attribute score needed to invoke the boon. If multiple power levels are listed (such as 2 / 4 / 6), then the boon can be invoked at multiple tiers of power. The Heal boon, for example, heals more damage as you invoke it at higher power levels. The power level of a boon also determines the Challenge Rating of the attribute roll to invoke the boon. The CR equals 10 + 2 x Power Level.

Effect

This entry indicates the mechanical effects of the boon on the rules of the game.

Special (optional)

Healing can be one of two things: the actual mending of wounds and broken bones through sources like medicine, surgery, or supernatural creative life force, or the inspiration of your target to carry on fighting, even in the face of death. This boon is common among clerics, medics, bards, and combat leaders.

Effect

Choose a space or object within range. Extraordinary light emanates from the target to a radius equal five feet per power level of the boon. If the light area overlaps an area affected by the darkness boon, then the one of greater power level supersedes the other. If the power level of both is equal, then they cancel each other out.

Description

The target gains an extraordinary ability to heal their wounds. Examples of this include the supernatural regeneration of a troll, a super soldier's adrenal biomod, or the ability to channel energy that results in continous healing. Regardless of the source, wounds close before the very eyes of an onlooker.

You can dispel all banes affecting your target of a power level less than or equal to the level at which you invoke this boon.

• Power Level 1 - Cancel banes of Power Level 1 or less.

Special

You can dispel banes of a power level beyond your power level of this boon. In order to do so, you must invoke this boon using an action roll (i.e., it is not compatible with the automatic success granted by the boon focus feat). The Challenge Rating to dispel a bane in this manner is equal to 20 + twice the bane's power level. So, for example, a power level 9 bane can be dispelled on a roll of 38 even if the invoker does not have an attribute score of 9.
